SATAN'S WHIP: "There exists a religious brotherhood dedicated to battling the forces of evil. Claude wants nothing more than to join this order. To prove his worth, he must find a missing priest. With his faith as both defense and weapon, Claude embarks on a bizzare and horrifying quest that will end in a blood-bath of insanity, witchcraft and cannibalism."
SUBURBAN SASQUATCH: "The always mystical and mysterious Bigfoot is out to make his presence known and claim his territory. No longer hidden under the veil of forestry, the beast is on a blood thirsty rampage right in the heart of peaceful suburbia! A local reporter is on the scene following victim after bloody victim. The cool calm of middle class living has been ravaged by the savage beast and the police seem to be hiding something. Who can stop this terror and who will survive the brutality of SUBURBAN SASQUATCH!?"
TORMENT: "Suzi Lorraine (Chainsaw Sally, Satan's Schoolgirls) plays Laura Wiggington, a woman recently discharged from a psychiatric hospital. Her husband Ray (Tom Stedham) takes her to an isolated river cottage to recover. There she is stalked by a psychopathic clown named Dissecto (Lucien Eisenach -- Hellbound: Book of the Dead) who performs macabre "tricks" for his literally captive audiences. But does the clown really lurk nearby or only in the dark recess of Laura's troubled mind?"
THE FOREVER DEAD: "It all started when an innocent rabbit named Bugs escaped a shady university lab. His nasty little bite unleashed an epidemic of terror! With an entire rural community spiraling out of control in a pandemonium of madness and flesh eating, six mismatched souls find themselves reluctantly intertwined in a fight for their lives and their sanity. Will they survive the night or be the next meal for the hordes of once-human creatures? Or more importantly, will they kill each other first?"

H.P. Lovecraft´s PICKMAN'S MODEL on DVD
Just wanted to give you a head up that H.P. Lovecraft's PICKMAN'S MODEL has been released on DVD. The film can be picked up at Amazon, . Directed by Gary Fierro and penned by Justin Tacchi, the plot of the flick goes like this: When two estranged friends, Thurber (BANSHEE!!!) and Eliot, meet for drinks, Eliot finds that Thurber is not the person he once knew. Thurber reveals that Pickman, a man he was using as a source for a Paper on Weird art, is linked to his recent change in demeanor. It begins with a simple invitation to view Pickman's work at his isolated studio in Boston's North End. And ends with the apprehension that what lurks in the foreground of Pickman's work is far more sinister than the art itself. Adapted from the original short story "Pickman's Model" by: H.P. Lovecraft.

MURDER SET PIECES banned in the UK
 TLA Releasing's United Kingdom division has learned that the uncut version of 2004 Nick Palumbo film, MURDER SET PIECES has been rejected by the BBFC for classification. The fictional horror film about a fashion photographer who begins murdering Las Vegas prostitutes was scheduled for DVD release on March 31, 2008 through the company's DANGER AFTER DARK label, which is dedicated to horror, fantasy and action genres.
"We are surprised by the BBFC's decision to reject the film, which is obviously a work of fiction," says Lewis Tice, National Press Liaison from TLA Releasing. "We question how this will affect independent films in general, which have always been a safe haven for filmmakers to present stories outside of mainstream entertainment."
The BBFC's decision arrived after Prime Minster Gordon Brown and conservative cross-party groups have recently begun public discussions about the social impact of violent films and videogames. Rejection by the BBFC means that MURDER SET PIECES can not be legally supplied anywhere in the United Kingdom but the uncut version has been released in Scandinavia, Spain and the Netherlands. The last DVD rejected by the BBFC was the pornographic film Struggle in Bondage in 2006 for scenes of naked women tied-up and gagged.
A press release outlined the primary concerns: "MURDER SET PIECES is a feature with a single-minded focus on the activities of a psychopathic sexual serial killer, who, throughout the film, is seen raping, torturing and murdering his victims. Young children are among those terrorized and killed, and their inclusion in this abusive context is an added concern. In relation to the adult victims, there is a clear focus on sex or sexual behavior accompanied by non-consensual pain, injury and humiliation."
David Cooke, BBFC director was also quoted in saying that "given the unacceptable content featured throughout, and that what remains is essentially preparatory and set-up material for the unacceptable scenes, cutting the work is not a viable option in this case and the work is therefore refused a classification."
Philadelphia-based TLA Releasing has 42 days to appeal the decision. But the BBFC states that overturning the decision is unlikely, suggesting that the film "also raises potential legal questions, for instance in relation to the Protection of Children Act 1978, as well as possible breaches of other legislation such as that on obscenity." TLA is currently in discussions about the pending release of MURDER SET PIECES in the United Kingdom and an update will be announced soon.
TLA Releasing's United Kingdom division has been releasing independent films since 2005. The company's DANGER AFTER DARK label, dedicated to films specializing in horror, sci-fi and thriller genres, has developed strong support in both North America and the United Kingdom.
