This Guy Didn’t ‘Run Like Hell’ (Exclusive)
Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive death-pic from Gravitas Ventures’ action/horror indie Run Like Hell, which will be available on VOD beginning September 23rd, 2014.
Produced by Two Guys and a Film (TGAAF), Run Like Hell builds out of a deceptively innocent road trip with two couples into a genre bending adrenaline rush of action filled horror. It’s said to have clever nods to past genre masters like Carpenter.
Run Like Hell is the narrative feature directorial debut of TGAAF principle James Thomas (Hard Sun, Broken Home) and the second feature filmed back to back under their shingle.
In it, “Four friends Dan, Samantha, Maggie and Luke, venture on their first road trip. Every year Samantha and Maggie (sisters), fly home to spend the Fourth of July with their parents, but this year Dan mapped out the PERFECT road trip. Along the way their car is stolen. With no car, no cellular service, and no one in sight, they are forced to seek the help small town locals of Harold and Nancy Johnson. The town’s real motives become obvious as the couples find themselves fighting to stay alive. When there’s nowhere to hide, all they can do is run like hell.“
The cast is led by a number of up and coming indie actors including Dave Finn (Happy Anniversary, Teen Vampire Angst), TGAAF principle Canyon Prince (Hard Sun, Zoolander), Robyn Buck Hard Sun, Prey For the Island), Tamara Carey (18 Year Old Virgin, Hard Sun), Aaron Rice (Redeeming Dave, The Cult) with J Michael Briggs (Army of Darkness, Hard Sun), and Jessica Cameron (Truth or Dare, Paranormal).

New Documentaries Explore the Cult Legacies of ‘The Keep’ and ‘Wolfen’; Watch the Trailers Now [Exclusive]
Undersung werewolf gem Wolfen and Michael Mann’s The Keep get the spotlight in a pair of feature documentaries acquired by Antenna Releasing.
A World War II Fairy Tale, which covers the infamous production of and reception to The Keep, will receive a limited theatrical release in October, followed by a TVOD release on Apple/Amazon. The Keep will also screen as a double feature for some showings.
For Uncovering Wolfen, Antenna eyes a limited theatrical release for 2027. Both films are currently available for booking via Antenna prior to their theatrical and digital releases.
Both documentaries are directed by Stewart Buck, who co-helms with Stéphane Piter on A World War II Fairy Tale.
“We at Antenna are obsessed with film history,” said Chief Acquisitions Officer Billy Ray Brewton. “Stewart has done such a remarkable job of really diving into the deepest recesses of how these films were made and, in doing so, has created the definitive histories of both projects.”
“We’re delighted to be partnering with Antenna Releasing!” said director Buck. “It’s refreshing to see a filmmaker-friendly approach to distribution with people who know what it’s like to be in the trenches with independent projects that struggle to find a home in the crowded marketplace.”
Check out our exclusive trailer and poster reveal of both documentaries below.
Released in 1983, Michael Mann’s The Keep was a notorious box office bomb, critically lambasted and all but forgotten for years, save for the fascination with Tangerine Dream’s iconic score. In recent years, the film has enjoyed a bit of a resurgence and is widely considered a cult classic, though director Michael Mann and many cast members refuse to acknowledge it.
Wolfen, on the other hand, was critical success but was overshadowed heavily by its flashier 1981 siblings An American Werewolf in London and The Howling. It’s also a trailblazer for socio-political horror, and the doc will explore that via the craftspeople who made it.
Look for them both in theaters soon. Stay tuned for more as it arrives.
