Carnies

There’s just nothing quite like a bloody old fashioned freak show. Word is coming from director Brian Corder that his new film Carnies has reached a state of geek completion.

There are really only two ways to make it acting, I think, pretty much the same as the two ways to make it in music; work your ass off day and night and do whatever is handed to you in the hopes that someone, someday will give you your "big break", or get discovered early on by some bigwig director and become the next Collin Farrell, who for a while was in everything and no one knew why.

Just got a heads up from Brian Corder, director of the upcoming indie horror flick Carnies, that the first teaser trailer has made its way online via the sickos over at Toxic TV. Doug Jones, Chris Stvaiski, Dave Markham and Reggie Bannister star in this twisted tale of murder and mayhem at a travailing carnival during the 1940’s.

So my good friend Reggie Bannister gave me a call and asked if I would like to drive out to Ontario, CA to visit the set of his new film Carnies. I didn’t have anything going on and I always love seeing the Reg-man work, so I hopped in the car and headed up the 909.

Check it out; we just received six brand-new pics from the upcoming Reggie Bannister/Lee Perkins film Carnies. The film is set back in the heyday of carnivals and tells of murder and mayhem at the site of the latest Knuckles Brothers Show. We’re still waiting to hear about some kind of distro, but when you’d done with these pics be sure to check out a ton more, as well as a more detailed synopsis and broader look at the cast and crew, at the film’s official site!
