‘The Crazies’ Gets D-BOX Theatrical Treatment
I heard D-BOX is awesome and I’m about to give it a whirl when Overture Films’ The Crazies arrives in theaters next Friday. Bloody Disgusting received the official release that details the added theatrical experience (vibrating seats yo!). Directed by Breck Eisner, the story revolves around the inhabitants of a small Kansas town who are beset by death and insanity after a plane crash lets loose a secret biological weapon into the water supply.
“D-BOX Technologies Inc. (DBO.A on the TSX Venture Exchange), a leader in innovative motion technology for the entertainment industry, has announced its second release with Overture Films, The Crazies, in theatres February 26.
We are very pleased to be adding a second title with Overture Films to our growing list of D-BOX supported films,” said President and Chief Executive Officer of D-BOX Technologies, Claude Mc Master, “This is yet another sign of our constant progress and the industry’s approval of our technology.”
Directed by Breck Eisner, The Crazies is written by Ray Wright and Scott Kosar (The Amityville Horror, Texas Chainsaw Massacre) and features Timothy Olyphant, Radha Mitchell, Joe Anderson, Danielle Panabaker. The American dream goes horribly wrong when the residents of this picture-perfect town begin to succumb to an uncontrollable urge for violence and the horrific bloodshed escalates into anarchy. In an attempt to contain the epidemic, the military uses deadly force to close off access into or out of town, abandoning the few healthy citizens to the growing mayhem as depraved killers lurk in the shadows.
