Post-production has recently wrapped on the upcoming indie horror flick, L.A. SLASHER, and today we've got the first ever look at it! Directed by Martin Owen and produced by Wright and Daniel Sollinger, L.A. SLASHER stars Danny Trejo, Mischa Barton, Dave Bautista, Eric Roberts, Drake Bell, Brooke Hogan, Tori Black, the "voice" of Andy Dick and cameos by Ashlynn Yennie, Barbara Nedeljakova, Carlee Baker and Allison Kyler. That's a heck of a cast in what sounds like a pretty fun entry in the horror genre.
Says producer Wright, “Celebrity seems to have become a race to see who can push the boundaries of degrading themselves the most and spin it into profit. It seems if you achieve infamy online, regardless of the moral and ethical boundaries crossed, you will be rewarded with a reality TV show, endorsements and branding. Actions that were once considered shameful are now celebrated and rewarded. The L.A. Slasher is here to end that.”
Here's what it's about:
A biting, social satire about reality TV and the glorification of people who are famous for simply being famous, “L.A. Slasher” explores why it has become acceptable and even admirable for people to become influential and wealthy based on no merit or talent – purely through notoriety achieved through shameful behavior. Incensed by the tabloid culture which celebrates it, the L.A. Slasher publicly abducts a series of reality TV stars, while the media and general public in turn begin to question if society is better off without them.
We'll have more on this one as we get but for now take a peek at the L.A. SLASHER below!
