A supernatural heist flick? Yeah, you can sign us up for that! On tap for you cats right now are two trailers and the official one-sheet for Jim Towns' indie effort House of Bad. From the looks of it, this is one house horror fans will be wanting to spend some serious time in!

Towns directs from a script he co-wrote with Scott Frazelle. House of Bad features Heather L. Tyler (Finding Focus, Nerve), Sadie Katz (Scorned, Nipples & Palm Trees), and Cheryl Sands (Lake Death, "Nip/Tuck") as three sisters who are caught in an ever-escalating series of terrifying encounters and dark scenarios. Lily fights her addiction as dreams of a dead woman wake her in the night, Teig struggles with terrorizing memories of an abusive father, and Sirah tries to hold the family together until one of her sisters is executed in the cellar. Crazed with withdrawals and...

The 2nd annual PollyGrind assaults Las Vegas during an epic length film festival that runs Oct. 8-17 at Theatre 7 with enough sleaze and violence to make Sin City residents feel right at home.

Actually, the fest does open up on the 7th with a concert at Neon Venus with local acts like Monster Zero, Creepersin and many more.

However, the film portion of the fest opens on the 8th with Stuart Simpson‘s acclaimed Australian gorefest El Monstro Del Mar!, one of the best Russ Meyer/Roger Corman mash-ups with a Down Under twist. Read the Bad Lit: The Journal of Underground Film review of this gem here.

Other Bad Lit favorites in the lineup are Drew Bolduc and Dan Nelson‘s The Taint, which is still completely grossing out audiences on the festival circuit, and The Uh-Oh Show, the splatter-filled horror comedy by the Godfather of Gore himself Herschell Gordon Lewis.

The First poster and character shots have been unveiled for upcoming 80s-set cannibal/slasher film The Locals, as well as full details of the story and cast.

The poster (see above) was designed by comic book artist Dennis Willman. The film is directed by Eric Anthony Pereira, who previously did second unit directing on Piranha 3D and various episodes of the TV series House.

The Locals is a 'found footage' movie that takes place in 1987. It depicts a group of low-budget filmmakers (Matthew Landon; Devanny Pinn - Nude Nuns With Big Guns, Piranha 3D; Greg Duke - Lake Death; Angelina Armani - Chromeskull: Laid to Rest 2) who head to the hills to film a slasher movie called Splatter Mountain.

Accompanying them are three of their actors, including an ageing, coke- addicted former centrefold (Tawny Amber Young - Nude Nuns With Big Guns), a bubbly, ditzy porn queen who is out...

I'm really enjoying a lot of these "found footage" films coming out and we have another one headed our way soon! The upcoming 80's-set "found footage" cannibal/slasher film "The Locals" .Dig on the first official poster, "character shots" and set photos via the film's official Facebook page which can be found at -http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Locals/169891726392212

The Locals is a “found footage movie” that takes place in 1987.

The birthing of a film can be a painful process, particularly in the world of independent filmmaking, and while truncated shooting schedules, limited budgets and location challenges conspire at times to create seemingly insurmountable hurdles, nothing proves more daunting for cast and crew alike than being subject to a producer with more mood swings than a 1940’s jazz band.

Such was the case on the set of director Charlie Vaughn’s Blood Mary 3D.

Originally slated to shoot in December of 2010, executive producer Chalmers (who previously produced the Bruce Campbell flicks Man with the Screaming Brain and Alien Apocalypse) made the choice to film Bloody Mary in 3D, with production therefore being delayed until spring while logistics were being hammered out.

Shooting over the course of a short six days earlier this month in and around an industrial complex in South Central L.A., this writer paid the production a...

This writer recently hit the set of filmmaker Creep Creepersin’s latest flick, Lovesick Captivity, in Burbank, California, and while there chatted with the director concerning the feature as well as the slew of upcoming projects he’s currently prepping.

Our visit came on the third and final day of principal photography for Lovesick Captivity (Creepersin works historically fast); yet, we found the filmmaker rather relaxed, regardless of the time constraint. The psychological thriller, which chronicles the rising domestic strife between a man and his blushing bride (the latter is stalked by a serial killer and subsequently has been forced into self-imposed house arrest), stars longtime Creepersin collaborator Charlie Vaughn, Dylan Vox (Brides of Sodom), Jeff Dylan Graham (Don’t Look in the Basement), Robbyn Leigh (Devil’s Den), Katie Costick (City Rats) and supermodel Heather Hewitt. Andrew Ceperley serves as director of photography, and Nikki Wall and Creepersin produce along with Tom Ingram.

Indie film maven Creep Creepersin is at it again. This time with his fifteenth feature film, Lovesick Captivity, in the can and headed your way! Let's crank out the stills and the details, shall we?

From the Press Release

Creepersin Films has wrapped their new feature, Lovesick Captivity. The psychological thriller is also prolific character actor Charlie Vaughn’s first leading role. Vaughn, who has played many diverse roles like the quirky Bernie Andrews in The Corporate Cut Throat Massacre; the straight-laced parole officer in The Brothers Cannibal; the super creepy Mountain Mike in Lake Death; as well as Maynard Fletcher, a rogue cop from the future in the upcoming sci-fi film Trash and Progress, and the sinister Evil Wong in Mkc: Monster Killers Club. Vaughn also directed the upcoming feature Vampire Boys, being released this February by Ariztical Entertainment.

About Lovesick Captivity, Vaughn says, "We all have our inner demons,...

Indie horror film maven and star of our very own web series, Mkc: Monster Killers Club, Creep Creepersin has two new flicks haunting the halls at Afm, and we have a look at both right here!

From the Press Release

Creepersin Films has released two new trailers at this year's Afm in Santa Monica for its highly anticipated films Brothers Cannibal and Lake Death. Both films are written and directed by Creep Creepersin.

Brothers Cannibal is a very dark comedy about two brothers who get more than they bargained for when their meeting with a strange girl turns deadly. Starring Matt Turek, Buz Wallick, Elissa Dowling, Charlie Vaughn, Alexandra Ackerman, John Karyus and Joel Hebner.

Lake Death is a slasher film where 8 people reunite after 10 years at a high school reunion in the mountains. One of them has changed a little too much over the years. People disappear, and the...

Prolific low-budget filmmaker Creep Creepersin (the man behind the features Orgy of Blood, Vaginal Holocaust and Caged Lesbos A-Go-Go and the recently-wrapped Lake Death) got in touch with Dread to give us the lowdown on his latest production, the in-development and not-so-low-budget feature Renegade: Rebel Patriot.

Slated to shoot in early 2011 as part of a co-production with a company this writer sadly cannot reveal at this time, the Jeremy and Daniel Tate-scripted Renegade: Rebel Patriot will star actor Jonathan (Death Proof and Grown Ups) Loughran as Steven Renegade, “an ass-kicking, legendary, all-American soldier who finds himself forced out of retirement as the government's last hope to stop a sinister plan to use stolen CIA cloning secrets to take over the world,” revealed Creepersin (pictured right).

Joining Loughran in the action will be Peter (50 First Dates) Dante and Kevin (Little Nicky) Grady, and director Creepersin promises that the eventual film will contain “crazy shit blowing up,...

This past Saturday, May 15th, Dread hit the road from La to Vegas, and sometime between playing fetch with a border collie over Bloody Marys in a dilapidated desert bar in Yermo and winding up with a gastro-intestinal malady (Sin City is apparently full of germs), this writer swung by The Polly Staffle Grindhouse Fest at the Sci-Fi Center for the world premieres of director Creep Creepersin’s features Orgy of Blood, Vaginal Holocaust, and Caged Lesbos A-Go-Go.

On hand for the event were filmmaker Creepersin and producing partner Nikki Wall, and just before the two engaged in an audience Q&A for Orgy of Blood, we managed to sneak a few minutes outside the Sci-Fi Center in order to get the skinny on release plans for the previously mentioned trio as well as the duo’s latest ventures: the feature films Lake Death and Wall’s forthcoming directorial debut,...
