[Trailer] Full Moon Throws a Halloween Bash in Classic Full Moon Style With ‘Weedjies! Halloweed Night’
Part of the new Deadly Ten initiative, Full Moon is throwing a Halloween party with their upcoming Weedjies! Halloweed Night, a throwback in the tradition of the Ghoulies franchise.
In the film, which premieres only on Full Moon Features on October 21:
“It’s Halloween Night in Las Vegas and three enterprising young ladies are throwing a “Bud Bash” party. But little do they know, they’re also going to unleash a freakish gaggle of party-loving nightmare-creatures from beyond!”
“When a midnight scavenger hunt for a rare bud of weed known as the “Golden Nug” brings a group of party-hungry stoners to a haunted hotel, it seems like it’ll be the greatest night ever. But when the mysterious Baroness introduces them to the Weed-G-Board, they play a game that opens a portal beyond our world, and unleash: The Weedjies!”
“This group of ghastly hysterical creatures have only one mission: Party ‘till you die. Before Halloween night is over, the unwitting guests will have to fight for their right to party, and put The Weedjies back in the board before midnight – or end up sucked into the netherworld forever!”
Check out the trailer and poster art below.
Shane Bitterling wrote the script for the film, directed by Danny Draven.
Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
