The Butcher Brothers

Image Entertainment will be dropping The Butcher Brothers' splatterific The Violent Kind onto Blu-ray and DVD on May 10th, and we've got the goods on what to expect! Extras will include deleted scenes, a making-of featurette, and the trailer. Synopsis:

The Butcher Brothers are knee-deep in production right now on the sequel to their After Dark Horrorfest hit, The Hamiltons, entitled The Thompsons, and yet another still has come forth! All the regulars will return -- Cory Knauf, Samuel Child, Joseph McKelheer, and Mackenzie Firgens -- in the sequel that follows the Hamiltons as they sneak into a new town.

With The Hamiltons, their film for the first After Dark Horrorfest, the Butcher Brothers put themselves on the horror map by delivering a very different kind of vampire tale that delivered some smarts as well as the expected gore.

We told you a couple of weeks ago that Image Entertainment nailed down the distro rights for The Butcher Brothers' (Mitchell Altieri, Phil Flores) latest foray into lunacy, The Violent Kind, and today a new one-sheet has made its way online!

Image Entertainment has nailed down the distro rights for The Butcher Brothers' (Mitchell Altieri, Phil Flores) latest foray into lunacy, The Violent Kind, and we've scored an insane two-minute clip to celebrate!

Playing at this year's Fantastic Fest in September you'll find a recut version of The Butcher Brothers' The Violent Kind. We don't know exactly what's been recut, but judging by this image, the red stuff is still VERY MUCH there!

Back when the first After Dark Horrorfest hit several years ago, one of the first films that made one hell of an impression was the Butcher Brothers' take on vampire family The Hamiltons (review here). Since then the brothers have had a couple of misfires along the way, but they are now ready to get back to business with a sequel.

Their latest effort, The Violent Kind, is poised to debut at Sundance '10 this Monday, January 25th, and already Mitchell Altieri and Phil Flores (aka the Butcher Bros.) are looking ahead to their next project, a psychological horror feature entitled Black Sunset.

Are you ready for three new clips today from The Butcher Brothers' latest trip into genre land? That's right, kids, their new film The Violent Kind is just days away from making its debut at Sundance 2010, so that means it's time for a little bit of enticement!

The official artwork for The Butcher Brothers' latest foray into the horror genre, The Violent Kind, has just made its way online, and we have every blood-speckled pixel right here for your perusal.

The Butcher Brothers are truly living up to their namesakes with these several new stills from their upcoming Sundance entry The Violent Kind. Check 'em on out and bring protection!

The Butcher Brothers have a bit of a spotty track record with genre fans. From pleasing the majority of us with The Hamiltons to savaging some good memories of ours with their insipid April Fool's Day remake, you just have to take their films with a grain of salt.
