Wild Eye Releasing, the distribution company responsible for unleashing films such as Blood Slaughter Massacre and Raiders of the Lost Shark onto the masses, have released the trailer and key art for the upcoming anthology The Horror Network. This first volume in what is a planned series of tales was created by Brian Dorton and Douglas Conner, featuring segments directed by Dorton, Conner, Joseph Graham, Manuel Marín, Lee Matthews and Ignacio Martín Lerma. A DVD with exclusive special features is scheduled for an October release.
Generally speaking, I’m usually a fan of anthologies and I’ve quite enjoyed some of Wild Eye’s releases in the past, so this is something I’m looking forward to. Whatever that creature-person-thing is from the poster that is also seen crawling and screaming in the trailer ranks pretty high on the creepy scale. This could be fun.
Synopsis:
Serial killers, ghostly phone calls, inner demons, otherworld monsters and creepy stalkers collide in this frightening anthology. Five of horror’s most promising new directing talents join forces to pay homage to classic horror like Creepshow, Tales From the Crypt, V/H/S and The ABCs of Death, and weave an unforgettable, disturbing tapestry of terror.
