Katharine Isabelle Preps for ‘American Mary’ Surgery
Here’s another small good released at the ongoing Cannes market. Below you’ll find the official sales art for Jen and Sylvia Soska’s (Dead Hooker in a Trunk) upcoming American Mary, the second feature film from Twisted Twins Productions. The poster displays Mary, played by horror veteran Katharine Isabelle, best known from the Ginger Snaps franchise, Freddy vs Jason and Insomnia. It’s kind of a funny poster because it’s littered with quotes, but it’s unclear who made the statements. Antonio Cupo, Tristan Risk, David Lovgren, Paula Lindberg and Twan Holliday also star.
This film is a psychological horror film described as American Psycho meets The Skin I Live In, but riddled with tons of subtle horror references from some of the most well known cult horror films. “The pic follows the story of medical student Mary Mason as she grows increasingly broke and disenchanted with medical school and the surgeons she once admired. The allure of easy money and notoriety sends Mary into the messy world of underground surgeries that leaves more marks on Mary than her so-called freakish clientele.“
