The American Film Market (AFM) begins next week and Bloody-Disgusting will be on hand seeking out new horror films you guys might dig. Although everything doesn't kick off until Halloween, sales have already begin and Filmax is the first to pick something up. Read on for details on Tinieblas Gonzalez's Spanish horror film Underground, and watch for more soon.
In the run-up to the American Film Market, Filmax Intl. has taken worldwide rights outside Spain to “Underground" (ASD: Alma Sin Dueno), the feature film debut of helmer Tinieblas Gonzalez, according to Variety.
Gonzalez, whose first name means “shadows,” is one of Spain’s best-known young genre filmmakers. His reputation has been established through a series of shorts that range from the semi-autobiographical and macabre — “Por un infante difunto,” about a boy’s visit to a butcher's shop — to ambitious gothic pieces, such as the Edgar Allen Poe adaptation “The Raven...Nevermore.”
Written by Gonzalez, Koldo Serra (“Backwoods") and Txabier Alastruey, “Underground” combines Gonzalez’s gothic horror hallmarks — it’s set in the grimy galleries of a subway — with an action storyline, turning on four young graffiti artists who decide to daub a new subway system. Pursued by security guards, they stumble upon a half human creature.
Shot in English, “Underground” toplines a young U.S. cast of Brendan Coughlin (“CSI”), Francia Raisa (“Bring It On: All or Nothing”), Doug Haley (“Nightworld: 30 Years to Life”) and Deance Wyatt (“Snoop Dogg’s Hood of Horror”).
Now posting f/x, “Underground” also features Robert Miano (“Dungeons and Dragons: the Movie”).
