Alister Grierson's black comedy horror flick Bloody Hell has been picked up for North American distribution by Entertainment Squad. Through is genre label The Horror Collective they plan to release Bloody Hell in cinemas, Drive-Ins and On Demand in the U.S. on January 14th.
Our own Josh Hurtado caught Bloody Hell when it played during the Nightstream Film Festival at the beginning of the month. You can read his full review here, but here are some of the key points. He liked it!
What could certainly be a pretty grim entry in the late, lamented torture porn genre is given a remarkably light treatment by writer Robert Benjamin and his director, turning Bloody Hell into a very fun, violent black comedy.Bloody Hell starts off at about a nine, and just continues ratcheting up the insanity with every new plot turn, and that’s a surefire way to get my recommendation.
You can watch the trailer down below. The press release follows this terrific poster.
