Horror Society has seen it’s fair share of horror documentaries pass through the doors over the years but very few have been able to peak our curiosity. Today I received word that Breaking Glass Pictures will be releasing a new horror based documentary called Killer Legends. Check the press release out below:
The chilling documentary Killer Legends will
be available on DVD nationwide July 1, 2014. Killer Legends follows filmmakers
Joshua Zeman and Rachel Mills as they investigate four timeless legends that continue
to haunt the American public. Directed by Joshua Zeman, the documentary examines
the urban legends of The Candyman, The Killer Clown, The Baby-Sitter and the Man
Upstairs, and The Hookman. The DVD release (SRP $19.99) will also include seven
special features on the urban legends.Joshua and Rachel travel to Houston, Texas where they explore the tainted candy
legend parents fear every Halloween. In Columbia, MO they compare The Baby-Sitter
and the Man Upstairs legend to the unsolved murder of Janett Christman – a babysitter
found murdered in 1950. In Texarkana, Texas, the filmmakers investigate the real
life case of a killer known as The Phantom and how it inspired “The Hook” urban
legend. Joshua and Rachel then head to Chicago to answer the question of how clowns
became so evil and creepy to the public.
This will be one DVD I will be grabbing in the next few months and I recommend you all do the same. We should see a review for this one coming real soon!
