Slumber Party Slaughterhouse Contest!
Halo-8, the sick bastards behind next month’s dvd-game ‘Slumber Party Slaughterhouse: The Game,’ are offering Bloody Disgusting readers a chance to participate in the game’s creation and win prizes in the process! How to enter? Oh man is it easy, just read on for details…
The game is a slasher-movie-trivia challenge… so all you have to do is comment below with your favorite slasher movie trivia question (any question!) – and if it gets used in the game, then you’ll be awarded an assortment of FIVE Halo-8 DVDs and get your name in the credits! *
If you don’t know already, ‘Slumber Party Slaughterhouse’ is Halo-8’s Halloween treat for the fans… a campy horror dvd-game starring TIFFANY SHEPIS (Nightmare Man), MASUIMI MAX (The Devil’s Muse), JOANNA ANGEL (Sick & Twisted Horror of Joanna Angel), KATIE NISA (Threat), PAGE TURNER (Pilates For Indie Rockers), and MELISSA BACELAR (Pink Eye). In the game Paul Tard, a hapless geek graduating from air conditioner repair school, is dissed by his friends when they uninvite him to their graduation party. It turns out they’ve ordered enough hookers and coke for everyone coming to the party, but Paul’s bi-curious ex-girlfriend convinced the party organizers to give her Paul’s hooker. So Paul does what any red-blooded American guy would do, he drowns his sorrows in a bubble bath and brings along his trusty laptop for some internet porn. Unfortunately, he gets a bit too excited, drops the laptop in the bathtub, and electrocutes himself to death. Paul is then visited by a slasher-film-obsessed Devilgirl who gives him the chance to take revenge by possessing the hookers and killing his friends… but first he must correctly answer the Devilgirl’s slasher movie trivia questions. Each correct answer unlocks the next “killscene,” and each killscene is directed by a different Halo-8 filmmaker.
“SPS was created as a Halloween treat for twisted gorehounds like us,” said SPS creator Matt Pizzolo (writer/director of ‘Threat,’ upcoming ‘Godkiller,’ and prez of Halo-8). “So we brought a bunch of Halo-8 filmmakers and stars together to make a collaborative project that also has an Audience Participation component… the theatrical screenings will be live events with prizes awarded for correct answers. It makes perfect sense to us that the fans oughta be involved in coming up with the questions, too, not just answering them.”
The contest will run until Friday September 26th. Winners will be announced the following week.

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.”
