After announcing a “one night only” event next Monday, September 10th, A24 shared with us a handful of images from Austin Vesley‘s pizza-themed horror film Slice (get tickets here). I want to go just to see if I can get my hands on that wicked “Perfect Pizza” jacket…
Slice is a new horror slasher that stars Chance the Rapper, with Zazie Beetz, Paul Scheer, and Will Brill (Eyes Of My Mother, “The OA”). It follows a pizza delivery driver who is murdered on the job, leaving the city searching for someone to blame: ghosts? drug dealers? a disgraced werewolf?
“In a spooky small town, when a slew of pizza delivery boys are slain on the job, two daring survivors (Beetz and Chance the Rapper) set out to catch the culprits behind the cryptic crime spree.“
“It’s a city where ghosts and humans come together; there’s a ghost town and a regular town,” producer Brett Hays said last year during filming. “It just kind pokes fun and has fun with those genres.”
The trailer reveals that Perfect Pizza is built on top of the gateway to hell and that pizza delivery men and women are being hunted. Ironically (or maybe not), the movie appears to be loaded up with double the cheese, but also looks delicious.
