[Exclusive] New ‘Flesh of the Void’ Trailer Aims to Visualize the Hellish Horrors of Death
This is the weirdest thing you’ll see all week. We promise.
With director James Quinn’s Flesh of the Void, Sodom & Chimera Productions brings you “a horribly disturbing and controversial experimental horror feature, visualizing what it could feel like if death really were the most horrible thing one can experience. The film was shot entirely on Super 8 and 16mm, some of it long expired film from the 80s (Kodachrome), and is intended as a trip through the deepest fears of human beings, exploring its subject in a highly grotesque, violent and extreme manner.”
The experimental arthouse horror film asks, “Some people think of dying as a peaceful fading. Some think of it as going into the light. Reliving your life in a brief moment of relief. What if those people are wrong? What if dying isn’t peaceful? What if it is an endless trip of relentless agony, confronting you with all you ever feared, hated, felt disgusted by or deeply despised, sending you on a surreal trip of primal fears, filth, depression and violence?”
Check out the new European release trailer below, exclusively being premiered here.
The film had its world premiere at the Nightmares Film Festival, where it won Best Overall Feature. It’s currently available on DVD through Black Lava Entertainment.
A hospital stay grows more nerve-frazzling when memory loss distorts reality in our exclusive clip from This Tempting Madness, inspired by a true story.
The mind-bending psychological thriller will be released in select theaters and on demand on June 12 via Vertical.

In This Tempting Madness, “Mia awakens from a coma grievously injured, her memory fractured. As she puts the pieces of her past together, she starts to question her own actions, and her perception of reality.”
Jennifer E. Montgomery makes her feature directorial debut from a script she co-wrote with director of photography Andrew Davis, inspired by Montgomery’s first-hand experience with tragedy involving her best friend.
“Months before the incident, there were signals that her world was unraveling,” says Montgomery. “I could feel the pressure building, though I didn’t know what form it would take. I never could have known what violence would come, and I certainly never imagined making a film about it.”
Austin Stowell (“NCIS: Origins”), Suraj Sharma (Happy Death Day 2U), Mojean Aria (Reminiscence), Amol Shah (“For All Mankind”), and Zenobia Shroff (“Ms. Marvel”) round out the cast.
Smoke Jumper Films and Mango Monster Productions produce in association with Catchlight Studios (Heretic, The Blackening).
This Tempting Madness is rated R for “language, violence/bloody images, and brief sexuality.”
