Almost exactly one year ago, we shared the news that the creative team behind Blind (watch it HERE, read my review at THIS LINK) and its sequel Pretty Boy were launching a production company called Neon Noir, and their first production would be a giallo thriller called That’s a Wrap, starring Cerina Vincent of Cabin Fever. Now it has been announced that Quiver Distribution will be giving That’s a Wrap a digital release on August 25th, and along with that announcement comes the unveiling of the film’s trailer. You can watch it in the embed above.
Directed by Marcel Walz, That’s a Wrap has the following synopsis: The cast of a film arrive to a wrap party, but someone has dressed up as the slasher in the film, and begins to stage their own kill scenes. One by one, the cast disappear until the true nature of the evening is revealed.
The screenplay was written by Blind and Pretty Boy screenwriter Joe Knetter, along with Robert L. Lucas. A couple years ago, it was announced that Knetter and Lucas had also been hired to co-write a zombie film called Twilight of the Dead, based on a treatment the legendary George A. Romero left behind when he passed away.
Blind and Pretty Boy star Sarah French stars in That’s a Wrap alongside Vincent, and they are joined in the cast by Monique T. Parent (Cuck), Dave Sheridan (The Devil’s Rejects), and Gigi Gustin (Fast and Fierce: Death Race).
Walz, Knetter, and French produced the film through their company Neon Noir, with Lucas executive producing alongside BJ Mezek, Andreas Tremmel, Justus Heinz, Yazid Benfeghoul, Tina Limbeck, and Kai E. Bogatzki.
Walz provided the following statement: “I’m so excited to have a colorful Giallo slasher as the first movie from our own production company, Neon Noir. Everyone involved in this project brought so much love and talent to the table and made the whole process from start to finish something special. I know the audience will see the love in the end product. My favorite film of all time is Wes Craven’s Scream. That’s a Wrap is a fun meta slasher that showcases my love for that series of films combined with my love of Ryan Murphy’s American Horror Story. As a gay director I’m thrilled to have an opportunity to have LGBTQ characters represented in the film. One even plays a key part in a scene that will no doubt get people talking about how that kill is something they’ve never seen before. It’s so ridiculous. I love it.“
