‘Girls Gone Dead’ Trailer Packs In Blood, Boobs & Bang!
Described as a hilarious throwback to the sexy 80s’ comedy/horror flicks, Girls Gone Dead centers around six beautiful high school friends reuniting for spring break during their freshman year in college — only to find a sadistic killer with a medieval war hammer has targeted them! With a cast filled with notorious celebs and personalities – such as Jerry Lawler (“WWE Raw”), Beetlejuice and Sal ‘The Stockbroker’ Governale of “The Howard Stern Show”, Ron Jeremy, Iron Maiden’s Nicko McBrain, scream queen Linnea Quigley, YouTube-reviewer Shawn C. Phillips (one of my personal favs) and a passel of Penthouse Pets like Ryan Keely and Janessa Brazil – this is certain to add some sizzle to your summer.
While usually not my kind of film, Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive look at the trailer that’s jam-packed with blood, boobs and plenty of bang. It’ll all hit home video July 17th. Extras listed inside alongside the trailer and synopsis.
“Rebecca is set to spend her first Spring Break home from college with her old high school cheer-leading friends. As luck would have it, the group of six sexy girls have been granted the usage of a rental property in the Florida coastal town of Manatee Creek. However, they are soon to find that their vacation may be anything but… Just down the road, in Daytona Beach; “Crazy Girls Unlimited” — a company famous for its drunken topless DVD releases — has been throwing an event for their latest video series. However, the shoot ended early when a war-hammer-wielding killer showed up to end the festivities. Unaware of what has transpired, Rebecca and her friends decide to throw a Spring Break Free-For-All, but the girls get more than they bargained for when, one by one, the party-goers begin to disappear. It seems that an uninvited stranger has been cutting the guest list – literally – and it’s everyone for themselves in this hysterical, splatter-tastic flick.”

Feverish Cult Film ‘Arrebato’ (‘Rapture’) Restored in 4K by Altered Innocence!
Never before released theatrically in the States, Altered Innocence has restored the feverish cult film Arrebato (Rapture) and is bringing it to New York and Los Angeles theaters this October, Bloody Disgusting exclusively learned.
“Brand-new 4K restoration of Arrebato, a dimension-shattering blend of heroin, sex, and Super-8 is the final word on cinemania,” hypes the press release. “This towering feat of counterculture was the final feature of Spanish cult filmmaker and movie poster designer Iván Zulueta.
In the film…
“Horror movie director José is adrift in a sea of doubt and drugs. As his belated second feature nears completion, his reclusive bubble is popped by two events: a sudden reappearance from an ex-girlfriend and a package from past acquaintance Pedro: a reel of Super-8 film, an audiotape, and a door key. From there, the boundaries of time, space, and sexuality are erased as José is once more sucked into Pedro’s vampiric orbit. Together, they attempt the ultimate hallucinogenic catharsis through a moebius strip of filming and being filmed.”
Arrebato will be playing the Anthology Film Archives in NYC from October 1-7 and the Nuart in Los Angeles from Oct. 8-14.
A home video release will follow.
