It’s been too long, Chromies! The third chapter of Robert Hall’s Laid to Rest franchise, Laid to Rest: Exhumed, is on its way; and we have a first look at what’s ahead for you just in time for San Diego Comic-Con 2018!
The screenplay was written by Hall and remains tightly under wraps.
“It’s not a straight sequel to ChromeSkull, nor is it an origin story, but it will satisfy people who want to know more about Chromey’s mysterious motivations,” Hall told us earlier. “This one is for those who are looking for a non-stop chase movie that never lets up with even more jaw-dropping unmatched death scenes. In fact, I’ll go on record saying that this will be the biggest and best of the franchise and will probably be THE GORIEST FILM OF ALL TIME. I was determined not to do this one until we had the proper budget to do it right.”
As always, Robert Hall’s PostHuman Fx will be creating gore and hybrid VFX as was done in the previous installments.
Hall says they will be kicking off an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign soon to procure additional funds to ensure the retro, yet innovative death scenes and gore are on full display. “We will be in good hands and are shooting in 4K for upcoming streaming platforms hungry for 4K and beyond content. We will be shooting independent with private equity and the crowd sourcing and as always will be open for distribution talks when we begin shooting.”
Fans can rejoice that ChromeSkull will once again be portrayed by the indomitable Nick Principe; look for more casting news soon.
