Great news is coming in for those of you out there who are as excited as we are to see Bruce McDonald’s (Pontypool) new film, Hellions! We just got word that IFC Midnight will be opening the film in theaters as well as on digital and VOD September 18th.
Meanwhile, Studiocanal in UK, Pretty Pictures in France, and Remain in Light in Benelux are all gearing up for a Halloween release.
In addition, Hellions will be screening in the Vanguard section of the upcoming Toronto International Film Festival, which runs September 10th-20th this year. Other upcoming festival screenings include Fantasy Film Fest in Germany, FrightFest in UK, Sitges in Spain, and Torino in Italy.
Hellions comes to us from a screenplay by Pascal Trottier, and the film stars Chloe Rose, Robert Patrick, Rossif Sutherland, Rachel Wilson, Peter DaCunha, and Luke Bilyk. It was produced by Frank Siracusa and Paul Lenart.
Synopsis:
A teenager’s Halloween night turns into a terrifying fight to survive when trick-or-treaters from Hell show up at her doorstep. After getting the unwelcome news that she’s pregnant, seventeen-year-old Dora (Chloe Rose) just wants to stay in on Halloween. But then a knock at the door delivers a gaggle of pint-sized demons after one thing: Dora’s baby.
Director Bruce McDonald unleashes a hallucinatory visual and auditory assault that propels Hellions to increasingly disturbing realms of terror.
