We just got word that the indie horror flick Carnies is now complete.
It will be doing the festival runs here shortly and the guys are currently looking for distribution. We got some new pictures and a new poster for the flick as well. Check them out below. If you don’t know what Carines is, well here you go…
Synopsis:
There are a thousand sideshows playing thousands of small towns in
1936 when the Knuckles Brothers Show rolls into yet another town, ready
to delight and dazzle the town folk with amazing acts and puzzling
oddities. As they set up their tents they could not know that within
days several of them would be dead, ripped savagely apart by a
seemingly inhuman force, their souls stolen from their limp and bloody
bodies.Meet Helen, the owner of the Carny, drugged out half the time,
demanding all the time–is she, in her drug-addled haze, the killer?
Meet Virgil, the Strong Man with a weak heart for Zoe, the fortune
telling gypsy enchantress. Meet Ratty, Virgil’s friend and the Snake
Handler for the show — a peculiar young man understood by few. Meet
William Crowley, the Sword Swallower, who, along with Virgil and Ratty,
investigates the mystery, but perhaps too late to escape the same
grisly fate as his colleagues. What sinister force is slashing its way
through this family of performers leaving a trail of blood and
crumpled, torn, soulless bodies in its wake? Step up, step up, ladies
and gentlemen, the show is about to begin…
