Girls Get Even On ‘Girls Against Boys’ Poster
Anchor Bay Films announced yesterday that Austin Chick’s Girls Against Boys will open in both New York and Los Angeles theaters on February 1. The pic that premiered at SXSW this past March stars Danielle Panabaker (Friday the 13th, The Crazies), Nicole LaLiberte (HBO’s “How to Make It in America”), Andrew Howard (Limitless), Michael Stahl-David (Cloverfield), and Liam Aiken (Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events). The official poster premiered online this morning and declares that: “Bad girls don’t cry. They get even.”
“When Shae (Danielle Panabaker), a naïve college student, is tormented by several men in a matter of days, she reaches her breaking point, and is drawn into coworker Lu’s (Nicole LaLiberte) twisted plan for revenge. Together, the two embark on a gruesome killing spree, terrorizing and brutally murdering not just their attackers, but any man who gets in their way. However, after a wild weekend of retaliation, the friendship between the girls shifts into a dangerous obsession, and their perverse game becomes a desperate struggle for Shae to maintain control against Lu’s deadly and seductive influence.“
