Bloody Disgusting has the exclusive poster premiere for the meta horror-comedy anthology Scare Package, which will make its World Premiere at Spain’s prestigious Sitges Film Festival this weekend before playing Telluride Horror and Nightmares Film Fest right after.
Director/Producer Aaron B. Koontz, as well as Producers Cameron Burns and Ashleigh Snead will be in attendance.
The film features a series of short segments taking aim at traditional genre tropes and overused clichés.
Each director has selected a different horror subgenre to showcase in a world where cell phones magically stop working and help is always a minute too late.
Scare Package features a diverse group of up and coming genre filmmakers, which includes the directorial debuts of actor Noah Segan (Looper, the upcoming Knives Out) and comedian/actor Baron Vaughn (Grace and Frankie, MST3k). Emily Hagins (Netflix’s Coin Heist, Grow Up Tony Phillips), Anthony Cousins (The Bloody Ballad of Squirt Reynolds), Chris McInroy (Bad Guy #2, Death Metal), Courtney and Hillary Andujar (Production Designers of The Girl On The Third Floor, Bloodline), and Koontz (Camera Obscura, the upcoming The Pale Door) round out the collection of filmmakers.
“This poster was designed by Marc Schoenbach of Sadist Art Designs and we think is a great illustration of the amalgamation of horror and self-aware comedy,” Koontz tells Bloody Disgusting. “In some ways, it is a poster that makes fun of horror posters while still embracing the love and nostalgia we have for them.”
