THE DELETED

Bret Easton Ellis – writer of “American Psycho”, “Less Than Zero” and “The Rules of Attraction” – is making his directorial debut on a forthcoming television series that dabbles in a cult.

It was reported this past summer that Ellis is directing “The Deleted”, a cult thriller that follows the disappearance of three seemingly unconnected people from Los Angeles, which triggers paranoia among a group of twenty-somethings who escaped from a cult a few years back.

As reported earlier this week, we have it on good authority that “The Deleted” is going to be appease Bloody Disgusting readers in the goriest of ways, with a source telling us that there are scenes in which the walls are quite literally covered in blood.

Streaming video app Fullscreen has picked up the project that joins a slate of original series and youth-skewing licensed fare available on the teen-centric app, which costs $4.99 a month.

Vine “star” Nash Grier leads the unknown cast, as well as  “Orange is the New Black’s” Madeline Brewer, pictured above in the first photo.

Ian Nelsen and Amanda Cerny also star with a debut set for December 4, 2016.

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.

Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”

In the SXSW 2024 horror film…

“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.

“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”

Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
