Much like sports, porn and horror don’t really mesh well, which is probably why porn-centric genre films always end up on home video. But when was the last time we saw one that had a really good cast?
Deep Murder, Nick Corirossi’s horror comedy set inside the world of soft-core pornography, has landed Christopher McDonald, Katie Aselton Duplass, Johnny Simmons and Stephanie Drake, Variety reports.
It follows a group of porn stars and filmmakers who start getting picked off by a masked killer.
According to the logline the characters originally come off as sex-obsessed archetypes but begin to evolve from cliches into real people as they are forced to figure out how to survive. It’s compared to raunchy comedies and Zucker brothers’ pictures like Naked Gun and Airplane.
McDonald is best known for playing Shooter McGavin in Happy Gilmore. Aselton Duplass is one of the stars of FX’s “The League” and the comic book drama “Legion”. Simmons’ credits include 21 Jump Street, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World and The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Drake is best known for playing Meredith, Don Draper’s bubbly assistant on “Mad Men.”
The cast also includes Jessica Parker Kennedy (“Black Sails”) and Chris Redd (“Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping”).
