[NYCC ’12] Posters, Images From After Dark’s ‘Dark Circles’, ‘Red Clover’, and ‘Asylum’
For the New York Comic-Con, After Dark Films has “officially” announced three of the After Dark Originals 2 films. Included are posters and an image from all three.
Dark Circles: Starring Johnathon Schaech, and Pell James, and written and directed by Paul Soter. “When new parents Alex and Penny retreat from the city and move into a place outside town, the stress and massive sleep-deprivation caused by their infant has both of them seeing things in the house that may or may not exist. As their fragile grasp on reality spirals into delirium, Alex and Penny find themselves nearly helpless to deal with the horrific truth of what is really going on in this house.”
Red Clover: Directed by Drew Daywalt (“Death Valley”), written by Anthony C. Ferrante (“Headless Horseman”) and starring Billy Zane (Titanic, Dead Calm), William Devane (Knots Landing, Payback) and Andrea Frankel (21 Jump Street). “Days before the annual St. Patrick’s Day parade, Karen O’Hara unwittingly unleashes a vicious Leprechaun upon the citizens of Keening, MA. As the creature runs amuck, killing and eating gold, Karen and her family must find a way to stop it before Karen falls prey to its four-day curse.”
Asylum. Directed by Todor Chapkanov (Vampyre Nation), written by Chris Mancini and starring Stephen Rae (Underworld: Awakening, V for Vendetta). “A veteran hostage negotiator’s next call leads him to an overrun insane asylum. He soon finds that dark forces are pushing the patients to commit atrocities, and that he may be the only one that can stop them.“

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery
One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.
Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”
In the SXSW 2024 horror film…
“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.
“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”
Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
