“INCEST DEATH SQUAD 1 and 2” writer/director CORY J. UDLER RELEASES “MEDIATRIX” ON DVD
Madison, WI-The director of “Incest Death Squad 1 and 2” has just released his latest film “MEDIATRIX” on DVD via his own website, www.incestdeathsquad.com.
The film was written by Paula Duerksen and stars Duerksen as Mary Ann Van Hook, a false spiritualist who, with the help of The Virgin Mary, sets out to right a wrong from her past. Also starring are Kaylee Williams (3 Slices of Life) Shannon Lark (Viscera Film Festival/Fangoria Spooksmodel), Joe Hollow (Cut, Disciples), Tom Lodewyck (Incest Death Squad 1 and 2), Greg Johnson (Incest Death Squad 1 and 2), Michael Katzenberger, Heather Renkin, Matt Ukena, Scott Rawson and Mike Peak.
“The movie took about 17 months from the initial idea to today with the DVD being released”, the director said. The genesis for the story stemmed from a road trip during the filming for Incest Death Squad 2 in May of 2010 with Duerksen and Johnson. “We drove up to Plainfield to see the Ed Gein sights, and then we detoured to the Mediatrix of Peace Shrine in Necedah. My dad and I found that place on a roadtrip when I was a kid. Super creepy place, and it was just begging to be exploited in a sleazy movie.”
Udler says the movie falls into the “exploitation” genre more so than horror. “But then again, I didn’t feel like the Incest (Death Squad) movies were horror, either. They kind of live in the neighborhood, but they’re not a typical horror movie and this one (Mediatrix) is so far out in left field, I even find calling it “exploitation” doesn’t really describe it.”
The film premieres in Tulsa at Sci Fi Horror Weekend this Saturday night, October 15th at 7pm. It then makes its way back to the Midwest for a screening Friday October 21st at Midnight at the legendary Broom Street Theatre in Madison and at the Oshkosh Horror Film Festival the following night, along side “Swamphead” and “Screaming in High Heels” from Derrick Carey and Jason Paul Collum respectively. Udler will also be a guest at Crypticon Minneapolis November 4-6th.
The film is now available at https://www.incestdeathsquad.com and will be available at all screenings and convention appearances. More info can be found on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/shalennproductionsllc
