Last April, we announced that Full Moon Features (the studio behind Castle Freak and the enduring Puppet Master franchise) is embarking on Deadly Ten, “an immersive cinematic initiative that will see Full Moon Features boldly producing a series of ten original genre films, live-streamed in front of fans.” If you missed it, read all about it in the link below.

Today, we’re pleased to report the Deadly Ten has launched in earnest with Halloween Night: Meet the Weedjies and Necropolis. Here’s the scoop from the official press release:

Halloweed Night: Meet the Weedjies is the inaugural feature film in the Deadly Ten series with director Danny Draven (Reel Evil) taking the helm of the ganja-filled take of Charles Band cult classic Ghoulies. The wacky, weed-choked comedy creeper features a motley crew including Full Moon/Empire Pictures legendary actress Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator), The Howard Stern Show’s Richard Christy and Medicated Pete, comedian Ester Goldberg, Evil Bong franchise veteran Mindy Robinson, Playboy superstar Bridget Marquardt, and internet film critic Shawn “Cool Duder” Phillips. Halloweed Night was written by Shane Bitterling and produced by Charles Band. Lensing will take place in the city of sin itself, Las Vegas, starting on June 11th, 2019.

Immediately following production of Halloweed Night, Full Moon will start lensing filmmaker and former Fangoria magazine editor Chris Alexander’s Necropolis: Legion. Gothic, brooding and bloody, the film is a surreal, Eurotrash-tinted companion film to the classic 1986 Band-produced Empire Pictures exploitation film. The film features a demonic vampire witch named Eva (Ali Chappell) who drinks blood through her breasts while possessing a young writer (Augie Duke) doing research on her story. Production will take place in Canada starting on June 22nd, 2019.
