Never Open the Door Q&A: Thanks for taking the time to answer some questions for us, Vito. When did you first come up with the idea for Never Open the Door?

Vito Trabucco: Thanks for having me. The idea first came from Chris Maltauro, my producer and co-writer, our camera operator Mike Bates, and me one night in a parking lot when we wrapped on another shoot. A few months prior I completed my first feature, Bloody Bloody Bible Camp. We were just eager to do another one.

Where did filming take place and what did that environment add...

Never Open the Door Blu-ray / DVD / Digital HD Release Details: Press Release: "Los Angeles, CA - Maltauro Entertainment in association with Baumant Entertainment has announced the December 6th Blu-ray, DVD and...

Maltauro Entertainment in association with Baumant Entertainment has announced the December 6th Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD release of Never Open the Door; the latest film from writer/director Vito Trabucco – the genius behind the awesome slasher movie Bloody Bloody Bible Camp. Along with writer/producer Christopher Maltauro the pair have created a chilling homage to the twisted and otherworldly tales of the original Twilight Zone, Outer Limits and Alfred Hitchcock Presents series.

Three happy couples retreat to a cozy secluded cabin in the woods to enjoy Thanksgiving. A badly wounded stranger appears at the door, and when they let him in, he throws up blood and collapses on the floor. As he dies, he points towards the lovers and croaks his final words: “Never open the door”. The dumbfounded group of friends start to panic as one of their own inexplicably disappears. Doubt rises by the minute and mistrust soaks through the cabin.

Director Chris Staviski is set to release the indie, horror feature Pain is Beautiful. The release will take place exclusively through the film’s official website. The film deals with a bodily disorder, called Cipa. This disorder prevents William from feeling any sensations, at all. He tries to understand pain and pleasure through tortuous experiments. And, Pain is Beautiful stars Ivet Corvea (Bloody Bloody Bible Camp), Tim Sullivan (2001 Maniacs) and Elissa Dowling (Black … Continue reading →

Chris Staviski's Pain is Beautiful is now available on DVD. The film is a character focused feature. And, William (Staviski) is a man struggling with Cipa. This body disorder prevents William from feeling anything in his body. He acts out painful experiments on others, to see how people feel. As well, this title is now available as of January 20th, 2015. The film stars Ivet Corvea (Bloody Bloody Bible Camp), Tim Sullivan (2001 Maniacs) and Elissa Dowling (Black Dahlia). All of the available release details are hosted here. The official DVD artwork for the film is hosted here. The graphic shows William with a circular saw, one of the character's favourite torture devices. Also, the tagline: "how far would you go to feel...anything?" shows how William is unable to feel anything for others. His inability to feel leads to pain for everyone around him. Also, the film's official trailer is hosted below.

The reveal of the so-called real Lobo during last year's "Villains Month" caused a lot of controversy among comic book fans, so whether they'll embrace this new series remains to be seen. The official announcement reads, "If you find yourself rooting for the villains as much as the heroes, there’s a new series from Eisner Award-nominated writer Cullen Bunn and artist Reilly Brown coming your way: Lobo. The all-new Lobo brings the ultraviolence to this new ongoing solo series! But we'll also learn about the man behind the violence." Also announced by DC Comics today is Trinity of Sin from writer J.M. DeMatteis with art by Yvel Guichet and Jason Gordon. Forced to work together, this series picks up with the characters Pandora and the Stranger, following the ending of their solo series in September, and brings in The Question on a quest to save humanity and uncover the...

[Nb: With the film finally set for a UK DVD release under the title of Sin, some 2 years after its Us debut, here's my (old) review of Bloody Bloody Bible Camp from its original Us release]

Remember those ultra-gory slasher movies that were released to cash-in on the slasher-movie boom that followed the release of Friday the 13th?

Sister Mary Chopper is headed your way and she’s going to send you to heaven.

Vito Trabucco’s awesomely ridiculous bloodbath, Bloody Bloody Bible Camp is out on DVD, available On Demand and will be premiering at the La Horror Fest during a midnight screening on October 26. Stars Tim Sullivan, Reggie Bannister, and Ron Jeremy will be there to sign autographs.

In case you aren’t familiar with Sister Mary Chopper and her stabbing habit, here’s a synopsis of the movie,

Bloody Bloody Bible Camp serves as "a throwback to the slasher flicks of the 80’s and finds beloved genre icon Reggie Bannister (Phantasm) as Bible Camp counselor Father Dick Cummings, who protects his young flock from stalking serial killer Sister Mary Chopper, played by writer/director Sullivan (2001 Maniacs, Chillerama), taking a turn in front of the camera. Rounding out the mix is adult film superstar Ron Jeremy...

With Vito Trabuco’s Bloody Bloody Bible Camp hitting DVD and VOD this week via Maltauro Entertainment, we thought it time to catch up with the filmmaker and one of his stars, Tim Sullivan, to get their thoughts on the feature. Read on for more and a few exclusive photos.

Bloody Bloody Bible Camp serves as "a throwback to the slasher flicks of the 80’s and finds beloved genre icon Reggie Bannister (Phantasm) as Bible Camp counselor Father Dick Cummings, who protects his young flock from stalking serial killer Sister Mary Chopper, played by writer/director Sullivan (2001 Maniacs, Chillerama), taking a turn in front of the camera. Rounding out the mix is adult film superstar Ron Jeremy (Boondock Saints) as no less than the son of God himself, Lord Jesus Christ!"

Making his feature film debut, co-writer/director Trabuco promises a wild, offensive ride. “My co-writer/producer Shelby McIntire and...

The theme for this year’s B-Movie, Underground and Trash Film Festival, held in the city of Breda in the Netherlands, is “Apocalypse.” So get ready to watch the world end dozens of different ways on Sept. 5-9 at various venues around the city.

The fun kicks off on the 5th with the German movie Hell by director Tim Fehlbaum. If you didn’t know, “hell” means “bright” in German and, given that title, this flick is set appropriately in a post-apocalyptic future where global warming has decimated the planet and surviving tribes battle for water and food.

Other post-apocalyptic visions include Milan Konjevic’s Zone of the Dead starring legendary zombie killer Ken Foree; Davi de Oliveira Pinheiro’s Bazillian underground hit Beyond the Grave about a world where magic and madness rule the world; and Rob van Eyck’s bizarrely twisted Afterman and Afterman 2.

A group of bible students are murdered at a sleepaway camp by Sister Mary Chopper, a nun out to kill those who are caught sinning.

Retro styled horror films have been in vogue for a few years now. Most of the films in this sub-genre miss the mark, because they fail to capture the spirit of those horror films of yesteryear. However, Bloody Bloody Bible Camp is an exception. Elements present in those films - gratuitous nudity, tasteless situations, lack of logic, iconic horror movie villain, over the top gore, tacky fashions - are all here. So then how is it that Bloody Bloody Bible Camp ended up missing the mark? .....Well, I'll tell you. They missed the mark in terms of pacing. Mistake number one - they take a villain like Sister Mary Chopper,...

Think of Topher Grace (That 70's Show, Spiderman 3). Now think of indie horror vet Jeff Dylan Graham (Bloody Bloody Bible Camp). Now imagine if the two were crossed and you would get something, or in this case someone, resembling Kit Williamson. Still, there is something unquestionably unique and different about Kit compared to a lot of the other young hopeful actors who come to La in hopes of making it. In just a short amount of time, Kit Williamson has been featured in a variety of horror film productions including Last Halloween - a romance in the vein of Before Sunrise, but with a horror twist. There's also Opious, which could be described as a cross between The Evil Dead & Ghostbusters, & a role in Elisabeth Fies second feature length film - I Hate L.A. On top of everything, Kit Williamson will be joining the cast of my very own production - Drive-In Massacre as Trey.

Tim Sullivan, director of the "I Was a Teenage Werebear" segment of Chillerama, just sent over some exclusive eye candy from the latest Psycho Charger music video shoot for the song "Chillerama" along with a note for you fine fiends. Dig it!

"I'm about to hop onto a plane for the Chillerama Euro Road Show of Dublin, Spain and Vienna, but before I jet, I wanted to share with Dread readers three Exclusive images from the Chillerama music video shoot this past Friday with kick-ass shockabilly band Psycho Charger."

"The song, so cleverly titled Chillerama (lol), is vintage bone-crunching thrash from Psycho Charger! Personally, my favorite song they’ve done, but hey- I’m biased.

What grabs you about a movie? Sometimes it's a kick-ass trailer that simply blows you away with awesome imagery and a peek into an amazing story. Sometimes it's the poster, a simple one-sheet that ropes you in, like the iconic Jaws poster or some of the creative shots for the Saw films. But sometimes all it takes is the title. That's definitely the case in Lance Polland's new film, Crack Whore.

There's not much that needs to be said after that title. You know it's going to be a hot mess of violence, blood and debauchery with a title like Crack Whore, and Polland assures us that's exactly what he delivers.

The veteran of such films as Bloody Bloody Bible Camp (featuring everyone's favorite hedgehog Ron Jeremy) and Slices, Polland has seen his share of blood and boobs. He is credited as writer and director on this project.

Crack Whore stars Julianne Tura,...

Joe Hollow

From Joe Hollow, the director behind the indie slasher event of 2011 – “Cut”, and executive producers Shawn Allen & Debra Lamb comes "Mountain of the Flesh Eaters". Inspired by a short story written by Shawn Allen, Mountain of the Flesh Eaters follows in the terrifying tradition of such horror classics as The Hills Have Eyes & The Texas Chain Saw Massacre as a series of brutal, unrelenting murders plague a small town and the sheriff that gets caught up in the chaos.

Looking to join the ranks alongside those classics, Mountain of the Flesh Eaters will actually be told from the point of view of the flesh eating, blood thirsty cannibals themselves. With Mountain of the Flesh Eaters, film writer Joe Hollow is looking to get beyond the stereotypical characterizations and get to the heart of what makes these cannibals who they are. What makes them tick? What makes them engage in these cannibalistic activities?...

Mountain of the Flesheaters The people behind Mountain of the Flesheaters, which is getting set to start filming pretty soon, have just released a cast list with some of the actors involved in the project. One word that comes to mind when seeing all these names is "Wow!". Even if the film fails from a story standpoint (which we hope it doesn't), at least there will be this huge cast to help keep your interest. Some of the names that appear in this cast are iconic horror actors that fans everywhere grew up watching mixed with some of the brightest new talents in the indie horror field. Here's some of the actors and actresses that will be appearing in the film:

-Debra Lamb (Stripped to Kill & Beverly Hills Vamp)

-Linnea Quigley (The Return of the Living Dead & Silent Night, Deadly Night)

-Lynn Lowry (Cat People & The Crazies...

Reggie Bannister - One For the Road By: Jeremy Morehead --- Reggie Bannister is a man who requires no introduction when talking with horror fans. After appearing in countless horror films, Reggie Bannister has developed a loyal cult following. However, Reggie Bannister will always be known for portraying “Reg” the ice cream vendor from the ever popular Phantasm series which has cemented its status as one of the scariest horror films ever made. He has also appeared in such fan favorites as Wishmaster, Bubba Ho-Tep, and the upcoming Stephen King short film “One for the Road”. Reggie took a moment out of his ever busy schedule to discuss this new short film and all the rumors circulating about a secret Phantasm project. Here's what he had to say.

Hey Reggie! How are you?

I’m good man. It’s good to talk to you. I love the site. Let’s get it on dude!

This past Wednesday, March 16, Dread hit the set of filmmaker Paul Ward’s horror flick One for the Road for an exclusive look at the project, which at the time was shooting in the cold environs of Crestline, California.

While there, we got a chance to chat with Ward and the project’s producer, Tim Sullivan (director of 2001 Maniacs and 2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams), as well as to witness the vampiric creature creations of Tom Devlin (Syfy’s "Face Off") and a bit of impressive and unintended pyromania. too, by the rather bemused latter.

Produced by Sullivan (under his New Rebellion Entertainment banner) as the second in his series of ‘Tim Sullivan Presents’ projects (initiated with the upcoming psychological thriller Cut/Print), this short film adaptation of Stephen King’s One for the Road (the original story stands as a sequel to Salem’s Lot) was written and directed by...

Known for the outrageous horror-comedy films 2001 Maniacs and 2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams (as well as his hosting duties on the VH1 "Scream Queens 2" reality series), filmmaker Tim Sullivan tipped us off today regarding his latest genre effort, an upcoming short film adaptation of Stephen King’s One for the Road.

The literary sequel to the King novel Salem’s Lot and originally published in the author’s iconic Night Shift horror anthology, Sullivan’s cinematic incarnation is to be written and directed by award-winning Irish filmmaker Paul Ward (Fur Coat and No Knickers, pictured below with Sullivan), and will star horror icon Reggie Bannister of Phantasm fame alongside Fur Coat’s Danny O’Connor and newcomers Audrey Walters, Drew Walters and Karen Andrews. Tom Devlin (who currently can be seen as a contestant on the Syfy reality series "Face Off") will provide One for the Road’s make-up and special effects,...

Gay Adult Superstar Brent Corrigan Wraps Leading Role In Tim Sullivan’S Mainstream Horror-comedy“Chillerama: I Was A Teenage Werebear”

Gay adult superstar Brent Corrigan has just wrapped the leading role in writer/director Tim Sullivan’s segment of the horror-comedy anthology feature film “Chillerama”. Homage to the Drive-In movies of the50’s and 60’s, “Chillerama” is collaboration between Sullivan and fellow filmmakers Adam Rifkin (“Detroit Rock City”), Adam Green (“Hatchet”) and Joe Lynch (“Wrong Turn 2”).

“Each one of us is doing homage to a different genre and style,” explained Sullivan. “I choose the surf musicals of the 60’s crossed with “Lost Boys”and “Twilight”. As a gay man, I’ve always been drawn to the queer subtext in films depicting teenage angst, whether it be James Dean’s relationship to Sal Mineo in “Rebel Without a Cause” or Zac Efron’s emotional tug...

Not content with just being another pretty face, Jeff Dylan Graham pushed himself in a new direction by becoming a film director with Psychosomatika. This pet project of his has been in the works for numerous years now as Jeff has gone back and tweaked the film over and over again. However, this isn't to say that Jeff Dylan Graham has given up on acting. That can further from the truth. He has a starring role in Vito Trabucco's Bloody Bloody Bible Camp which co-stars Reggie Bannister, Ron Jeremy and of course Tim Sullivan as the Sister Mary Chopper! Here's what Jeff Dylan Graham had to say about these films.

Marcus Koch seems to be the go to guy for special effects these days in the indie horror world. Having racked up a number of credits in the past few years including Bloody Bloody Bible Camp starring Reggie Bannister (Phantasm), Tim Sullivan (host of the TV show Scream Queens and director of 2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams), and adult film superstar Ron Jeremy. He has also worked on Herschell Gordon Lewis's The Uh-Oh Show, Andrew Allan's Brainjacked, Jay Woelfel's Live Evil and many other films. Marcus Koch has also stepped back into the director's chair with Fell starring Jeff Dylan Graham. Here's what Marcus Koch had to say about his career.

So who is Marcus Koch and what is he all about?

Not sure yet, but, I'm a Pieces. Sometimes I don hideous mohawks, listen to bad 80's music and collect cheesy tuxedo t-Shirts. I love horror films and I love weird art.

Director Vito Trabuco’s Bloody Bloody Bible Camp looks set to be a gory return to the golden age of the classic 80s slasher. The film was written by director Vito along with his partner Shelby McIntyre, and features a veritable who’s who of exploitation – Ron Jeremy, Reggie Bannister and 2001 Maniacs director Tim Sullivan as transvestite killer-nun Sister Mary Chopper!

Last month saw the release of the first trailer for the film, and now – thanks to Rebellion Entertainment’s Facebook page – we have a handful of gore-soaked stills from the movie. Check them out:

So what is Bloody Bloody Bible Camp about?

In short, its about a group of Christian Bible Campers who stay the weekend at an old campground where 7 years earlier, there was a massacre at the hands of Sister Mary Chopper. The rest is probably pretty easy to figure out.

What was the inspiration behind the film?

My co-writer and me, Shelby McIntyre, share a love for old B-Movies. We wrote this pretty easily. I think our main inspiration was just to make a great comedy. When our exec producer Christopher Maltauro hopped on board, he gave us all the freedom to make it as far out as possible.

What was the budget for the film?

Still counting.

How did you go about getting that cast?

Reggie Bannister was the first cast. He and Gigi brought on Tim Sullivan to do Sister Mary Chopper. Most of the younger cast was through auditions.

Hey peeps, I came across this fun video of director Vito Trabucco's  Bloody Bloody Bible Camp today and thought I'd share it.  This clip totally reminds me of the 70's-early 80's slashers! You can see the influence and this is going to be a fun film for everybody.

Some of the reasons why this film is going to be awesome, well you have Tim Sullivan taking a break from directing playing Sister Mary Chopper, that's right!  Horror film icon Reggie Bannister is starring and producing along with wife Gigi Bannister. Even Ron Jeremy is in this film, I heard he's playng Jesus? Shelby McIntyre co-wrote the film with Trabucco.

Let us know how you like the clip and if you can see the slasher influence!

The film stars 2001 Maniacs director Tim Sullivan as Sister Mary Chopper, a killer transvestite nun (talk about having us at hello). Said Sullivan of the project, "Vito Tribuco’s horror comedy Bloody Bloody Bible Camp, which Vito wrote with his partner Shelby McIntyre, is infused with the same splatstick soul as Field Of Screams. I knew I had to get involved the minute producers Reggie and Gigi Bannister rang me up and asked me to hop on board. Did I mention Reggie plays a priest with whom I do battle? Oh, yeah. And Ron Jeremy plays Jesus. It’s a total knock-out gore/comedy/boob fest that doesn’t just cross the...

Director Tim Sullivan has returned with his much anticipated sequel 2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams to an astounding reception. Certain films stick with you and have a special place in your heart, some fans have Star Wars, personally I have 2001 Maniacs. With the combination of blood, guts, gore, boobs and insane comedy Sullivan has come up with the perfect equasion for the fans and it works to perfection! I have followed the making of Field of Screams before it started filming in Iowa last summer, through the name change, petitioning to get a director's cut out in time for the sequels release, entering the world of Twitter, all the way to the film's release on July 20th to an astounding reception from the fans, how do I know this you might ask? Netflix rented the film out instantly and ordered more copies! Many stores shelves sold out and also had to reorder!
