THE SLAUGHTER - Old School Gore, just what we've been missing after all those years!

In an old school camp-o-rama bloodfest, Sundance filmmaker Jay Lee, slashes, drowns, spears, rips, squishes and burns people in The Slaughter. When six college students take a job cleaning up an abandoned house their plans to work hard by day and play hard by night are interrupted when they awake an ancient evil demon.

H. P. Lovecraft, George Romero and Sam Raimi just to name a few of their heroes that we pay homage to in their film. For die hard SERIOUS horror and Zombie fans, please don't be offended. They're just having a good time.

Their film just had it's world premier at Another Hole in the Head festival in San Francisco and took 3rd place with the audiences.

24framespersecond.com says, "Every once in a while you just have to have a good dose of B-Horror. Spotlight pictures latest offering The Slaughter fits the bill perfectly."

They plan to play festivals throughout the US (and hopefully a few internationally) so if you know of a good horror fest let em know! DVD releases (Halloween in the US and other areas TBD) coming soon.

Their team plans on making at least three more films within the next year so keep an eye out for the company site.

This is a great film.

We run Horror Fest UK, and as soon as we saw this film, we knew we had to have it included.
