Virgil Films Slices Into Horror ‘Foreclosure’
Virgil Film has picked up the U.S. rights to Foreclosure, a horror movie starring Michael Imperioli, reports Heat Vision.
“Imperioli stars as a father who, with his son and father-in-law, travels to the house of a recently deceased relative. The discovery of a disturbing photograph in the basement leads to horrifying occurrences.”
The movie was written and directed by Richard Ledes, whose two previous films, Fred Won’t Move Out and The Caller, were also picked up by Virgil.
The company is planning for a theatrical and VOD release in first quarter 2014.
Spencer List and Bill Raymond are among those cast in the movie.
We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
