Chainsaws, creepy manors, hitchhiking serial killers. That
sounds like the makings of a pretty good time to us, and that’s exactly what the
new horror joint Bastard is made of. The creepy, low-budget
slasher throwback is looking for distribution, but hopefully someone out there
will check out this new trailer and pick it up.
The story follows a pair of newly married killers hitchhiking
on their honeymoon and leaving a trail of bodies in their wake, a brother and
sister on the run, and a cop with a suicidal streak. And wouldn’t you know, all
of them are on a collision course that involves a small town bed and breakfast,
a masked killer, and a series of murders.
Filmmakers Patrick R. Young and Powell Robinson tell Shock Til You Drop, “We don’t want to make a joke out of the time period, but rather
use it as an inspiration to tell a character driven horror story that evokes
the same nostalgia you feel watching cult classics like Halloween, My
Bloody Valentine and Sleepaway Camp. Expect
all practical effects and a synth heavy score.”
Again, that sounds like a good time from where I sit, and from
this trailer, Bastard just might achieve that goal. Check it
out below.
