Stuntwoman Zoe Bell headlines this sly subversion of the women-in-prison genre. After Sabrina (Bell) is abducted, she finds herself in an underground lair, forced to do battle with other innocent women for the amusement of unseen spectators. Each of these reluctant warriors has something to lose, but only one will remain when the game is done. Violent and relentless, Raze takes its video game aesthetic to the deepest and darkest places, rarely surfacing for air.
IFC Midnight acquired North American rights to Cinipix’s action/thriller Raze, directed by Josh Waller, Deadline writes.
The film, written by Robert Beaucage, stars Zoe Bell, Rachel Nichols, Tracie Thoms and Sherilyn Fenn, and made its world premiere at last month’s Tribeca Film Festival.
“Raze follows Sabrina, a woman who is mysteriously abducted and held captive in an underground lair, where she is forced to do battle with other innocents for the amusement of unseen spectators. Each of these reluctant warriors has something to lose, but only one will remain when the game is done.”
It’s a pretty solid little flick that’s sort of like Bloodsport without the creative characters. I think you guys will enjoy the brutality of it. READ MORE

The Tribeca Film Festival today announced its feature film selections in the Spotlight and Midnight sections, projects in the new Storyscapes section and Special Screenings. The 12th edition of the Festival will take place from April 17 to April 28 in New York City.
The Spotlight section features 33 films — 21 narratives and 12 documentaries — that blur the lines of independent and mainstream filmmaking. Twenty-three films in the selection will have their world premieres at the Festival, a record number for the section. The Midnight section – formerly known as Cinemania – will open with Dark Touch and offers an international menagerie of seven raucous and rousing new horror titles. Our very own V/H/S/2x (pictured above), which premiered at Sundance, and plays this weekend at SXSW, also will continue its festival run!
Here are the genre films selected for Midnight and Spotlight, as well as a huge batch of first ever images! READ MORE
Cinipix and Quincy Pictures have supplied Bloody with this exclusive poster image from their horror project Raze, starring Zoe Bell and Rachel Nichols.
The poster shows Sabrina (Bell) looking down the hallway at Jamie (Nichols), prepared to bare knuckle battle to the death in the nearby Raze arena. The featured quote from Joseph (Doug Jones) gives us insight into the gruesome battles between the beautiful and dangerous cast of Raze.
Raze focuses on two abducted women and 50 other women who are forced to fight each other using their bare hands, all for the sadistic enjoyment of an elite, voyeuristic society that follows one rule — Fight or die.
The cast includes Tracie Thoms (Death Proof), Doug Jones (Hellboy), Sherilyn Fenn, Rebecca Marshall (Saw 3D), Bruce Thomas (Hall Pass), Tara Macken (The Hunger Games), Adrienne Wilkinson and Nicole Steinwedell (The Unit).
Shooting recently wrapped on Raze, directed by Josh C. Waller from a script by Robert Beaucage and shot in 4K in Los Angeles.

Hot on the bloody heels of recently wrapped horror battle film Raze, Cinipix and Slater Brothers Entertainment are set to produce another gritty action/drama feature, The Devil’s Ink. Raze producer Kenny Gage and Devon Downs have written and are set to direct the film, which will go into production in October.
The cast includes Zoe Bell (Oblivion, Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained), RJ Mitte (Breaking Bad), Robert LaSardo (Death Race, “Nip/Tuck”), Richard Cabral (End of Watch, “Southland”), Sandra Vergara (Fright Night, God Bless America), Shayla Beesley and Louis Iacoviello.
In the film, “when sexy ex-con Samantha Black (Bell) finds her Venice Beach tattoo parlor at the center of a scandal involving two dirty cops and the sex trafficking of underaged girls, her retribution is swift, bloody — think Cohen Brothers on ‘roids and Red Bull — and hardcore to the bone. Following a cast of bikers, gangsters and felons from the ink shop for which the film is named into the filthiest corners of corruption and depravity, the fast-moving, fight-for your life story provides an unflinching look at the dark side of street life, and a nuanced vision of who exactly modern society’s true villains really are.”
You can keep up with The Devil’s Ink on their official Facebook page.
