‘Run Sweetheart Run’ Chased Out of May Release
This past January’s Sundance Film Festival kicked off with Shana Feste‘s “social horror” film Run Sweetheart Run, which our very own Meagan Navarro called “an entertaining battle soaked in blood.”
Described as Get Out meets Rosemary’s Baby, the terror begins when a blind date turns violent and the woman (Ella Balinska) has to get home through Los Angeles, with her date (Pilou Asbaek) in pursuit.
Bloody Disgusting learned this morning that OTL Releasing and Blumhouse Tilt will no longer be releasing the film in theaters on May 8, 2020, as announced back in February. Watch for a new date is it comes in.
Feste previously told EW that, in her early 20s, she went on a date with a man “who looked incredible on paper,” she recalls, but “it went bad very quickly, and I think at, like, one in the morning, I ended up running out of his house in the Hollywood Hills.” With no shoes, no phone, and no purse, Feste ran all the way home to West L.A. in her little black dress.
“That night was terrifying and illuminating,” she says. “People that I didn’t think were going to help me did help me, and the people I thought were going to help me didn’t really help me so much as they could have. It was almost — what happened on foot, going back to my house — worse than what happened on the date.”
The killer tomatoes are back in Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: Organic Intelligence, and the offiical poster for the brand new movie has been unleashed tonight.
Additionally, we’ve learned that the film’s theatrical release is set for this August, with a panel set for San Diego Comic-Con this month featuring the world premiere of the trailer.
While you wait, check out the official poster down below.
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: Organic Intelligence will be released in select cities across the US beginning August 7th in major cities such as Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, San Diego, and others, and expanding to further locations throughout the month.
The fifth installment in the horror-comedy franchise pits the eternal power of nature against AI’s best and brightest.
In Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: Organic Intelligence, a young biotech prodigy develops a revolutionary genetically engineered vegetable designed to solve humanity’s problems. But when the experiment spirals out of control, it unleashes a new generation of killer tomatoes, setting the stage for another outrageous chapter in the long-running cult franchise.
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes co-creators Costa Dillon and J. Stephen Peace return to write and executive produce. David Ferino directs.
The film features an ensemble cast led by franchise icon John Astin (The Addams Family), reprising his role as Professor Gangreen, comedy legend David Koechner (Anchorman), Academy Award nominee Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight), horror favorite Catherine Corcoran (Terrifier), comedy veteran Dan Bakkedahl (Veep), Myrna Velasco (Star Wars Resistance), Vernée Watson (Shrinking, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air), and Paul Bates (Coming to America).
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes launched in 1979, followed by 1988’s Return of the Killer Tomatoes, 1991’s Killer Tomatoes Strike Back, and 1992’s Killer Tomatoes Eat France.
The franchise also spawned an animated series in 1990.
