If you weren’t celebrating the Halloween season already, you’re definitely going to want to start today considering it’s October 1st. For most, that means blood baths, naked women and obnoxious stereotypes that make you want to rip your hair out. But what do you do if you’re looking for more comedy than horror? What do you do if you’re a parent and you’re looking for something more kid friendly for your young ones? Well, look no further than Potent Media’s Sugar Skull Girls – a teen scifi fantasy with doses of comedy and horror and enough sass to make Mean Girls blush.
After securing a distribution deal with SGL Entertainment, Sugar Skull Girls makes its premiere on Amazon Prime today and is available for stream. Further street dates, such as other VOD outlets and Blu-ray/DVD, will be announced shortly, but Amazon Prime users have the distinct privilege of getting to watch the latest movie from Potent Media first. Start off Halloween season the right way – with laughs, too much candy corn, creative new monsters and a bossy wicked witch. Take that, Wizard of Oz!
SYNOPSIS: Three demonic sisters who resemble neo-goth voodoo dolls are accidentally conjured from the other side during a failed attempt to raise a little girl from the dead. With impeccable fashion sense and teen aged angst, the Sugar Skull Girls will stop at nothing to escape the clutches of The Pale Witch, the ruler of The Shadow world.
The film is written and directed by Christian Grillo, produced by Christian Grillo, John Kent, David Gechman, and Carmela Hayslett; and stars Addy Miller, Carmela Hayslett, Cece Hagen, Anika Buchanan, Isabella Sobejano, Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes), John Amplas (Day of the Dead) and Leslie Easterbrook (The Devil’s Rejects).
