Here’s another fairy tale film that’s getting a horror spin on an old fable, not that we mind, by the way. We have a new trailer and one-sheet for the upcoming creature feature, Axe Giant: The Wrath of Paul Bunyon.
Virgil Films will be distributing the film in the U.S. for DVD and VOD release. Cinema Purgatorio will handle domestic theatrical. Theatrical bookings are under way, and Virgil plans a June street date for DVD and VOD.
Gary Jones (Boogeyman 3) will direct and the film will star Joe Estevez, Dan Haggerty, Tom Downey, Tim Lovelace, and Jesse Kove.
Plot Synopsis
This dark, contemporary take on the tall tale of lumberjack Paul Bunyan. Kids at a first-offenders boot camp discover that the legend of Paul Bunyan is real but is much more horrifying than they could have imagined. They incur the wrath of the 15-foot monstrous giant, who was banished from town 100 years ago and thought dead.
