Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day With Another Sneak At ‘Holidays’ (Exclusive)
We just told you guys that Vertical Entertainment and XYZ Films have partnered to acquire the global distribution of the horror anthology Holidays ahead of its world premiere at the 2016 Tribeca Film Festival on April 14th.
The companies will coordinate a global day-and-date release, which will begin the next day on April 15th with worldwide digital and VOD platforms followed by a targeted U.S. theatrical release on April 22nd.
Before the official trailer was released, Bloody Disgusting had shared an exclusive look at Starry Eyes duo Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyer’s “Valentine’s Day,” which gave homage to Carrie.
Now, we’re celebrating “St. Patrick’s Day” with an exclusive sneak peak at the story from Dracula Untold director Gary Shore, which features Ruth Bradley (In Her Skin) and Isolt McCaffrey.
In “St. Patrick’s Day,” after accepting a cursed trinket from a student, Elizabeth discovers she is pregnant with a something not human. Despite her initial horror, Elizabeth decides to give birth, even if it kills her.
Holidays is an anthology feature film that puts a uniquely dark and original spin on some of the most iconic and beloved Holidays of all time. The film challenges our folklore, traditions and assumptions, making Holidays a celebration of the horror on those same special days’ year after year. A collaboration of some of Hollywood’s most distinct voices, the directors include Kevin Smith (Tusk), Gary Shore (Dracula Untold), Scott Stewart (Dark Skies), Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyer (Starry Eyes), Sarah Adina Smith (The Midnight Swim), Nicholas McCarthy (The Pact) Adam Egypt Mortimer (Some Kind of Hate) and Anthony Scott Burns (Darknet).
One night. One house. One horrifying experience. Nothing stays buried forever in Bury the Devil, a real-time exorcism movie told in a single, continuous take.
We’re exclusively unveiling the new trailer and key art for the real-time nightmare below, ahead of the film’s release in select theaters and VOD on August 21.
Adam O’Brien (Mom) directs from a script by John Petrizzi and Brad Hodson.
When nurse Julia finds herself trapped inside the home of her dementia patient, she begins to suspect things are not what they seem; something demonic is seeping through the cracks of this old home. Trapped and with nowhere to turn, Julia soon finds herself in battle to rid the house of this evil before it is too late.
Dawn Ford, Emmanuelle Lussier Martinez, Bill Rowat, and Mark Antony Krupa star.
“This film depicts the most harrowing 90 minutes of our protagonist’s life, and I felt that the most visceral way to really feel this was to do a single-shot film,” O’Brien previously teased. “We are with her every step and misstep she takes – through the unraveling of the mystery to the horror of her discovery. It’s a fun, twisty roller-coaster ride that puts a new spin on exorcisms.”
Bury the Devil is the first installment in a planned trilogy. The prequel, Bury the Devil: Origin, is already in development with O’Brien returning to the helm.
O’Brien produces along with Philip Kalin-Hajdu (The Sacrifice Game) and Benoit Beaulieu (Turbo Kid).
