I was contacted earlier this morning in regards to writing a small article about an upcoming action-horror film that is currently in post-production. With a title like Blood Sombrero and a cast of recognizable television players and actors who have starred in many other projects in this genre, I think it won’t be long before people are asking about this one. Here’s what I know so far!
Blood Sombrero is written and directed by Abel Berry and Jennifer Michelle Stone II, who I recognize as the creators of 2010’s Kodie. Cast members headlining this feature include Billy Blair (Machete Kills, Sin City II), Nick Gomez (12 Rounds, “The Walking Dead”), Paula Marcenaro Solinger (“Salem,” “Wisp”), Frederic Doss (Dead Sea, Piranha Sharks), Tom Proctor (Fear of Clowns II, “Nashville”), Stephen Brodie, Roxy Rebel and Sheri Davis.
According to one of the directors, Blood Sombrero is summarized as: “Set in the south Texas town of Sucio Sangre near the vicious Mexican border, Blood Sombrero stars Billy Blair as a nameless thief hired by the ruthless crime lord Lucifer (Nick Gomez) to find a strange box with unknown contents. Meanwhile a mysterious yet violent girl named Josephine (Paula Solinger) holds the box while on the run from the deranged cult she once belonged to. Hot on her trail are two crooked cops (Frederic Doss and Stephen Brodie) and a psychotic bounty hunter named Coffin. Their paths ultimately collide in an explosion of blood soaked chaos, leaving our anti-heroes to decide whether this box is worth their lives.”
The second official trailer for the film was released earlier this year and you can catch it right at the bottom of this article. Don’t forget to like Blood Sombrero on Facebook, too. I would also like to thank whoever’s in charge of marketing and media for this film for not using a single bloody sombrero in any of the promotional materials. Thanks for being creative and thinking outside the box!
