Wild Eye Releasing has unleashed a new trailer and artwork for the acclaimed indie anthology Tales of Poe, and since we know most of you are fans of both indie films and Edgar Allan Poe, of course we’re happy to share!
Since its world premiere at the famous Egyptian Theater in Hollywood, Tales of Poe has been met with acclaim and awards on the festival circuit. San Francisco Weekly called the anthology “a worthy successor to the Roger Corman/Vincent Price Poe films” — heady praise indeed!
Co-directed by Bart Mastronardi and Alan Rowe Kelly, Tales of Poe combines the classic horror prose with the star power of legendary scream queens Adrienne King (Friday the 13th, Friday the 13th Part 2), Caroline Williams (Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, Halloween 2), Amy Steel (Friday the 13th Part 2, April Fool’s Day), Debbie Rochon (Model Hunger, Hell Town), and Lesleh Donaldson (Happy Birthday to Me, Funeral Home).
Wild Eye plans to release Tales of Poe on DVD and Digital HD in October; we should have more details soon!
