A new Troma-produced film called Sweet Meats recently started filming, and it sounds like something fans of the independent studio are going to love.
Sweets Meats is directed by Ricky Glore, with Volumes of Blood franchise creator P.J. Starks and Troma founders Lloyd Kaufman and Michael Herz all serving as executive producers. The plot will focus on a popular country music singer named Bobby Sweet, who opens a successful restaurant called Sweet Meats with his wife. And while the restaurant immediately becomes a massive success within its local community, people soon begin to wonder about the secret ingredient that makes the dishes on the menu taste so incredibly special. Without going into spoiler territory, we will say that people will be horrified when the truth comes to light. Seeing as this is a horror picture, you can probably already deduce what the sinister Bobby Sweet serves to his customers.
Filming locations will include the famous Bobby Mackey’s Music World in Wilder, Kentucky, while the restaurant interiors will be shot at Nick’s Restaurant in Harrison, Ohio. The cast includes Timmy Barron, Andrew Gordon, Eileen Earnest, and Amanda Chilelli. And while it does not yet have a confirmed release date, we can expect to hear more about Sweet Meats over the coming months.
In the meantime, the filmmakers are still accepting donations via Indiegogo, so you still have time to help the project become a reality. Lloyd Kaufman also recorded an entertaining announcement video about the film, which you can watch in the player below.
