Easter Sunday is known for many things: the famed bunny, decorating eggs, egg hunts and rollings, huge baskets of candy… oh, and something about Jesus Christ and such. Well, it’s about to be known for something else – something a bit more menacing!

From the Press Release
As Easter quickly approaches, Northgate Pictures is proud to present the official teaser trailer for Easter Sunday. A gory love letter to the golden era of slasher movies, the indie film is written and directed by Jeremy Todd Morehead and stars horror legends Robert Z’Dar and Ari Lehman.

Easter Sunday’s dynamic cast boasts Robert Z’Dar, the iconic actor best known as Maniac Cop; Ari Lehman; the first actor to portray Jason Voorhees in the original Friday the 13th; and indie veterans Edward X. Young (Mr. Hush) and Shawn C. Phillips (Ghost Shark). They join a number of promising up-and-comers including Paige Taylor, Christine Galbraith, William Bozarth, Jon McKoy, and Travis Marion.

In addition to the teaser trailer, Northgate Pictures has released N4red The Boogeyman’s music video for Easter Sunday’s theme song, “Eggsecuted.” Done in the spirit of such classic film theme songs as “Are You Ready for Freddy?,” “Maniac Cop Rap,” and “The Monster Squad,” N4red’s hip-hop track captures the film’s tongue-in-cheek tone. The “Eggsecuted” video also features exclusive footage from the movie.

Easter Sunday follows a group of teens who accidentally conjure the spirit of Douglas Fisher, a deranged, bunny mask-clad serial killer. Fisher is portrayed by Jason Delgado, who also serves as the film’s producer. He explains, “We are trying to bring forth a vision of ’80s gore and real brutality on our limited budget. We want to bring people a film that will be fun, fast-paced, and filled with edge-of-your-seat tension. I’m humbled to be working with so many talented individuals.”
