‘Onyx’ Festival Poster Celebrates Star Jeffrey Combs and ‘Re-Animator’!

Published

Fans of gateway horror get ready for Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls, an unbelievably fun horror movie that harkens back to classics such as Beetlejuice, Ernest Scared Stupid, and even Pee-wee’s Big Adventure.

The film was a big hit at the Sundance Film Festival and is next set to play the Calgary Underground Film Festival before making its way to theaters this fall. We’re told huge news is imminent.

To commemorate the screening in Calgary, the filmmakers have created a hilarious poster exclusively for the event that gives homage to Re-Animator and celebrates Onyx star Jeffrey Combs!

“100 copies will be sold online and 150 copies will be available in person at the festival. Designed by Nate Maldonado, the art is numbered and autographed by Onyx director and star Andrew Bowser!”

The art gets into the mind of Andrew Bowser’s Onyx, which obsesses over everything from Alf to Satan. Pick one up here!

Meagan Navarro reviewed Onyx, calling it an “endearing comedy-horror [that] embraces the ‘80s horror kid”!

In the film, “Amateur occultist Marcus J. Trillbury, aka Onyx The Fortuitous, is struggling. He’s misunderstood at home and work, but his dreams for a new life seem to be answered when he lands a coveted invitation to the mansion of his idol Bartok the Great for a ritual to raise the spirit of an ancient demon. He excitedly joins Bartok and his fellow eclectic group of devotees as they prepare for the ceremony, but pretty quickly, it becomes apparent everything is not as it seems. As Onyx and his new friends fight to keep their souls, he must decide what he’s willing to truly sacrifice in order to meet his destiny.”
