Cody Calahan heads back to the 80s with his indie Vicious Fun, which pits a horror movie critic <gulp> against a group of serial killers attending a 12-step meeting.
Bloody Disgusting has the exclusive trailer and poster premiere for Black Fawn Films, Particular Crowd, and Breakthrough Entertainment’s Vicious Fun, which looks like a slasher dropped into Kill Bill with tons of little nods to the best decade ever (lead Evan Marsh is even dressed like Marty McFly).
Marsh plays “Joel, a caustic 1980s film critic for a national horror magazine, who finds himself unwittingly trapped in a self-help group for serial killers.
“Can he match wits with five killers and make it through the night alive? Stuck with only two options – kill or be killed, Joel will have to find his inner serial killer and muster a hidden strength to defeat the maniacs in his midst.”
Shot in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, Vicious Fun also stars David Koechner (Anchorman, Cheap Thrills), Amber Goldfarb (TV’s Bad Blood), Ari Millen (TV’s Orphan Black, I’ll Take Your Dead), Julian Richings (TV’s Supernatural, Man of Steel), Robert Maillet (300, Immortals), and Sean Baek (TV’s Killjoys).
It is produced by Chad Archibald and Calahan and written by James Villeneuve.
