Fangoria and the
official site for the film SAM HELL,
we’ve got enough gorey pictures of this film to make anyone want to stand up and
beg for butter milk. (Damn you TRUE LIES for being on in the background!)
Being brought to us by Son of Jason
productions (named so because it was founded by Michael Bayouth; whose father
donned the hockey mask and machete in
FRIDAY THE 13th 4: THE FINAL CHAPTER), SAM HELL sounds to me
like one of the most original and coolest ideas to pop up in recent times.
The official synopsis for SAM
HELL is as follows: It’s Halloween and this year’s
haunted house has a deadly new attraction. Sean Taylor, foreman at the haunted
house, buys what he thinks is a fake corpse head in a cage. But when his
girlfriend, Jill, sees it, she says it smells and wants it gone. Little do
either of them suspect that this pungent, rotting zombie is very real, very
undead and is about to change their lives forever. When the corpse begins to
telepathically communicate with him, Sean begins his descent into madness and
the world of the paranormal. He goes on a murderous rampage, doing the cadaver’s
bidding with a machete and a twisted grin. As the body count begins to rise,
Jill discovers, with the help of a paranormal detective, that the caged ghoul
has a nasty history as a serial killer and used to work at the very same haunted
house.
Now this is the kind of thinking
that I’m talking about! Notions of remakes put aside for an original story line,
and I mean just take a look at what was developed; a very groovy story with some
original concepts that bodes to be both different and cool.
So take a look at the pics over at
Fango as well as the ones over at the
official
SAM HELL site which boasts to soon host a trailer.
