Tomaselli Casting for Torture Chamber

The director of Horror and Satan’s Playground is on his way back with a brand new horror film called Torture Chamber. Moviehole found a casting announcement for it in Backstage Magazine and was kind enough to throw up the film’s synopsis. Dig:

Torture Chamber is a 35mm independent horror feature film about 13-year-old Jimmy Morgan, who is possessed by an evil too powerful to be exorcized by any priest. One year after his own brother, Father Mark Morgan, nearly died in the attempt, Jimmy is back with a vengeance—and an army of horribly burned children who follow his every murderous desire. The town of Smithville trembles in fear as Jimmy and his deadly young followers attack and abduct its residents—innocent and guilty alike—dragging their victims to an abandoned castle and subjecting them to grisly torments deep within its catacombs. Those who discover the terrible secret behind the disappearances and deaths don’t live long enough to tell it. The teacher, the doctor, the detective, even Jimmy’s own brother and mother, will all confront their fates in the Torture Chamber.

Interesting idea, I have to admit. As long as Tomaselli can pick up the pace a bit, get away from his “nightmare logic” and find some good talent to put in front of the camera, this could be one worth keeping an eye on.
