A couple of more new stills have come our way for indie maven Dante Tomaselli’s new film Torture Chamber, and they are appropriately gory. Dare you take a peek?

Torture Chamber tells the tale of a boy possessed by an evil so powerful no priest can exorcise it. The boy comes back to his hometown after a failed attempt at it with an army of burned children at his command, whom he uses to abduct both innocent and guilty, dragging them to a nearby castle and subjecting them to all sorts of punishment. Bring it on!

The film is rockin’ quite the cast, too, including Vincent Pastore (The Sopranos), Ed Neal (The Texas Chain Saw Massacre), Lynn Lowry (The Crazies), Marilyn Burns (The Texas Chain Saw Massacre), and Christie Sanford (Desecration).

“In terms of outright fear, I want to push the envelope right off the table. Religious fanaticism … eternal damnation,” said Tomaselli in an earlier interview. “This is a film about peeling back layers of pain and guilt buried in the unconscious mind. At the core there’s a family in deep psychic pain. It’s the first serious independent horror film in a long time that’s in the vein of The Exorcist. Torture Chamber aims to be one of the scariest horror movies of recent years.”
