"It's bigger than we thought!!" "How big are we talking…?" Gravitas Ventures has revealed the trailer for an indie horror thriller film titled All Eyes, made by Todd Greenlee and his brother Alex Greenlee as a family venture. This sounds like another wacky, amusing concept for a horror along the lines of so many other indie creations recently. A disgraced podcast host interviews an eccentric farmer who claims to have a monster living in the woods near his house. He arrives to learn he has a plan of trapping and killing the beast, but is something else going on? Starring Jasper Hammer, Ben Hall, Danielle Evon Ploeger, Nick Ballard, Laurie Cummings, and Jeremy Parr. This looks like it could be good, but I wish there was a glimpse of the monster in here. It better not end with "oh wait, this guy was crazy and it was nothing." ›››

Bloody Disgusting has the exclusive trailer drop on All Eyes, a new horror film in which a podcaster documents a man hunting down a monster.

Directed by Todd Greenlee and starring Jasper Hammer, Ben Hall, Danielle Evon Ploeger, Nick Ballard, Laurie Cummings, and Jeremy Parr, All Eyes is coming to theaters and VOD on September 2nd.

In the film…

“A recently fired podcast host comes across a story that he feels could revitalize his career. The story: a recently widowed farmer claims there is a monster living in the woods behind his farm. The plan: trap and kill the beast.”

Mickey Reece is a filmmaker who, despite having made over 20 movies, has only had one theatrically released. It’s a bit of a sad irony how the timing worked out for Climate of the Hunter, initially screening at Fantastic Fest in 2019 before being delayed until theaters opened up in December last year. But in that messiness, it feels like it got a little lost, like so many great indie films did in the foggy Covid release landscape, though a new streaming home on Shudder has brought it more attention.

Climate of the Hunter, as the title suggests, is an examination of predatory men, personified in the film by Wesley, played with a sinister charm by Ben Hall. Two sisters make up the bulk of the rest of the characters, Alma (Ginger Gilmartin), a woman discharged from a mental institution an unspecified time ago, and Elizabeth (Mary Buss), who works in D.

Writer/director Mickey Reece has flown under the radar somewhat here in the UK but finally his new film, Climate of the Hunter, along with a number of films from his back catalogue are getting a UK release from Bulldog Film Distribution. The film is set in the 70s and is an elegant mix of melodrama and, potentially, vampirism. Sort of like Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte meets Let’s Scare Jessica to Death.

Alma (Ginger Gilmartin; Fingerprints) and Elizabeth are sisters. They’re also totally different. Alma is a recently divorced artist who smokes lots of weed and has a dog who is a philosopher. Elizabeth is a Washington DC lawyer whose career takes the place of a family. They’re at Alma...

If you’re a fan of the 70s and vampires, I’ve got a trailer here for you to watch for an indie horror thriller called Climate of the Hunter. The film is set in the 1970s and is centered around two sisters who are trying to win over the affection of a man who may or may not be a vampire.

As you’ll see, the film has a certain style and tone that gives it the same kind of vibe as some of the vampire horror films that were made in the 70s. It looks like a interesting and weird flick, but I’d watch it. Here’s the synopsis:

Two sisters, Alma & Elizabeth, along with a dog who's described as a "philosopher," have come to Alma's remote house to reconnect with Wesley after twenty years. Alma is recently divorced, Elizabeth is a workaholic in Washington, D.C.

"Mom, you're alone out here." "Then I better get prepared." Xyz Films has debuted an official trailer for an indie horror thriller titled Climate of the Hunter, the latest feature from prolific indie filmmaker Mickey Reece. Set in the late 1970s, two middle-aged sisters vie for the affection of a man from their past who may or may not be a vampire. This just premiered at Fantastic Fest this month, but doesn't have a release yet. Starring Ginger Gilmartin, Mary Buss, Ben Hall, Jacob Snovel, Laurie Cummings, Sheridan McMichael, and Danielle Evon Ploeger. Climate of the Hunter, according to Reece's local online newspaper The Oklahoman, is described as "a visual interpretation of The Jesus and Mary Chain's 1985 debut album, Psychocandy." This looks super low budget and just plain weird. Perhaps exactly the kind a film some of you are looking for. Have fun. Here's the first official trailer (+ ...

[Editors Note: With Army of Frankensteins finally out on DVD here in the UK on Monday, here's a repost of our review of the Us release of the film from back in July]

After a failed attempt to propose to his girlfriend, Alan Jones is beaten to within an inch of his life by a street gang and taken to a mysterious lab where Dr. Tanner Finski and his kid genius assistant perform horrible experiments on him hoping to re-animate a Frankenstein. The experiments lead to a hole being ripped in space and time, manifesting an Army of Frankensteins from hundreds of parallel universes and sending them all back to the 19th century, directly into the heart of a bloody battle between the North and South. History will never be the same.
