Fangoria and Full Moon are presenting a fresh new take on Stuart Gordon’s 1995 horror flick Castle Freak this year, and Birth.Movies.Death. brings us an update today.
Castle Freak, the site reports, will world premiere at the Chattanooga Film Festival on April 16th. It’s set to debut in the midnight slot, following a screening of Synchronic.
Check out the title card below and see a behind the scenes shot over on BMD.
The story follows recently-blinded Rebecca, her boyfriend John, and their friends as they travel to Albania to manage Rebecca’s sudden inheritance of a castle from her long-lost-mother. Once there, they learn that Rebecca’s family harbored dark secrets with potentially cosmic implications. As mysterious happenings and horrific murders begin to occur, Rebecca must unravel her family’s own mysterious history before she too falls prey to… the CASTLE FREAK.
SFX Makeup Artist Tate Steinsiek (Puppet Master: The Littlest Reich, Satanic Panic) will make his feature debut directing the script written by Kathy Charles (The Kings of Maine). Italian maestro Fabio Frizzi (Zombi 2, The Beyond) will compose an original score for the movie.
Barbara Crampton is producing the remake.
The cast includes Emily Sweet, Elisha Pratt, Omar Brunson, Clair Catherine, Jake Horowitz, Chris Galust and Kika Magalhães.
