THE HUMAN RACE: horror/sci-fi/action-thriller, will have it’s U.S. Premiere at the Mile High Horror Film Festival Saturday, October 6, 4:40pm. Attached is a poster & link to the trailer of THE HUMAN RACE. There’s also a synopsis of the film below you’re welcome to print & quotes from critics.
One of the most unique things about our film is unexpected casting. As far as we know, this is the first genre film to cast disabled characters in leading roles in a race for survival. Eddie McGee, one of our leading actors, has one leg and does amazing stunt and fight sequences. Two of our characters are deaf & their entire dialogue is signed & subtitled and the result is riveting. Eddie McGee will be available for interviews at The Mile High Horror Festival.

THE HUMAN RACE: horror/sci-fi/action-thriller.
In THE HUMAN RACE a group of 80 people are ripped out of their daily lives and all re-appear in an undisclosed location. These people are from all walks of life: young and old, athletic and disabled, white-collared and homeless. The rules to a race boom in their heads, in their own voice and language, laying out what will become a horrific race of terror: “If you are lapped twice, you die. If you step off the path, you die. Race…or die.”
Startling, violent and powerful, THE HUMAN RACE is a cruelly inspired beast. Will anyone have mercy on the elderly, the children, the wounded, or the pregnant? Will anyone band together or will the innocent all be forced to become brutal killers? There’s only one way to find out who will survive…watch humanity unraveled & revealed in The Human Race.
Here’s what critics are saying about The Human Race after it’s world premiere at Fantasia:
“Inspirational and wickedly cruel.” – Michael Ryan, Sound On Sight
“The Human Race is a winner through and through…I have never seen a film play out so well in a theatre.” – Bloody Underrated.net
“Never a dull moment throughout the movie” – Simon Rother, Horror-Movies.Ca
“Paul Hough’s impressive debut literally hits the ground running and never lets up from start to jaw-dropping finish. An extremely effective high concept thriller that delivers geysers of blood and thoughtful meditations on the brutality of human nature in equal measure. Paul McCarthy-Boyington, Eddie McGee, Trista Robinson and T. Arthur Cottam lead an extraordinary ensemble through an adrenaline-pumping 90-minute gauntlet, a dash that leaves its audience as breathless as the onscreen contestants. Dark, bloody and daring, a Hunger Games for the gorehound set.” – Aaron Christensen, HorrorHound Magazine
