Look Inside the Brain of ‘Banshee Chapter’
It was recently announced that Zachary Quinto’s production company, Before The Door Pictures, partnered with Sunchaser Entertainment and German producer Christian Arnold-Beutel (The Ledge) to produce the elevated horror feature Banshee Chapter, which stars Katia Winter (Showtime’s “Dexter”, “Sleepy Hollow”), Michael McMillian (HBO’s “True Blood”) and Ted Levin (Silence of the Lambs).
Bloody Disgusting received word that Blair Erickson’s film will be released in the UK on DVD and VOD January 27, 2014. XLrator Media will release in the States on January 10. Check out a new batch of stills alongside the UK DVD art.
“On the trail of a missing friend (Michael McMillian) who had been experimenting with mind-altering drugs, a young jour The Silence of The Lambs) — finds herself drawn into the dangerous world of top-secret government chemical research and the mystery of a disturbing radio signal of unknown origin. A fast-paced thriller blending fact and fiction, Banshee Chapter is based on real documents, actual test subject testimony, and uncovered secrets about covert programs run by the CIA.“
After four years, terror finally comes home. Zach Cregger’s Barbarian will arrives in physical format for the first time on 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray SteelBook.
Look for the stunning SteelBook that features brand-new art by Creepy Duck Design to arrive on August 11.
Special features will include:
- Audio Commentary with Zach Cregger & Roy Lee
- ‘Behind Barbarian’ featurette
- Deleted Scenes
That’s thrilling news, considering nearly a year ago Cregger was lamenting the lack of progress on the release. “I have banged the drum, made phone calls, and tried my best to get some sort of physical media,” Cregger said of Barbarian. “I’m not making headway, and it kind of bums me out.”
In the film, starring Georgina Campbell, Bill Skarsgård, and Justin Long, a young woman books a rental home, only to discover that a man is already staying there. Against her better judgement, she decides to spend the evening, but soon discovers that there’s a lot more to fear than just an unexpected house guest.
This is long overdue for the film’s fans. I wrote in my review, “All rules get tossed out the window, resulting in a confrontational and chilling feature that slams into you like a freight train and leaves you breathless. It’s smartly written, well crafted, and boasts a fantastic cast committed to the insanity. More importantly, it’s the type of violent, ruthless, and bloody horror that leaves a mark.”
Of course, Cregger has since made even bigger waves in horror with Weapons. His Resident Evil arrives soon after his debut feature, Barbarian, makes its long-awaited home video release.
