Sundance ’10: Twisted Short Clips from ‘The Violent Kind’
Nothing like a shroud of happy music mixed with a blend of horrific images to brighten your day. This morning 3 short teases were released from The Butcher Brothers’ The Violent Kind, one of Bloody Disgusting’s most anticipated films premiering at this month’s Sundance Film Festival. The film takes place one night at a secluded farmhouse deep in the Northern California woods, where a small group of hardened young bikers and their girlfriends are tormented when one of the girls becomes savagely possessed and a gang of “Rockabillies” seemingly from the 1950’s descends upon them to collect what is growing inside her. Cory Knauf, Taylor Cole, Bret Roberts,Christina Prousalis, Tiffany Shepis and Joe Egender all star. The Bucther Brothers burst onto the scene with their microbudget indie flick The Hamiltons.
