This is so cool!!!
Montrealer Pat Tremblay, who wrote, directed, starred in, and did lots of the other stuff necessary to make the movie Hellacious Acres: The Case of John Glass, has sold that movie to The Collective and BloodyDisgusting.com.
There’s an article about it in Variety. (I’m using a screen grab of that article as an illustration here.)
Hellacious Acres had two screenings at the Fantasia Film Festival, which is running until Sunday (Aug. 7),
The movie will get a theatrical release and will later be available on DVD or as video on demand.
Hellacious Acres is about a man who has been cryogenically frozen for who knows how long, who wake up to find that he has a “mission” to accomplish, in the aftermath of WWIII.
I’ve already reviewed Hellacious Acres: The Case of John Glass, here at the Ciné files. The Fantasia web site has two interviews with Pat Tremblay, too.
There’s a a written one, in English, by Kier-La Janisse, and a video interview in French (see below).
Congratulations to him and to Fantasia for bringing the film to public attention.
