There is something to be said for these low budget studios, you can watch their output, and while it may not be great, there is always a level of hunger in them. They are clearly made by people who love the medium. Having seen an earlier Happy Cloud Pictures release, Resurrection Game, I can say that this group of people love movies. That said, this looks like an interesting project. Now for the press release:
An independent production company sets up at a haunted attraction to shoot
both a horror movie and the simultaneous making-of documentary, unaware that
the set is being stalked by a killer masquerading as one of their own
performers. As filming progresses, the line between whats real and whats
fiction begins to blur and then vanishes entirely! Splatter Movie: The
Directors Cut takes a time-honored storyline and gives it a Happy Cloud
Pictures twist, resulting in a veritable tesseract of a film. The end result
will be as much a deconstruction of the slasher subgenre as it will be a new
entry in horror history.
To complete this elaborate project, Happy Cloud Pictures is teaming up with
the Hundred Acres Manor, Pittsburgh's only 100% volunteer based tri-themed
haunt benefiting Homeless Children's Education Fund and Animal Friends. This
immense attraction will virtually be a character itself in the film,
providing a wonderfully-macabre landscape for the characters to play.
With a script from Mike Watt (The Resurrection Game, Dead Men Walking),
Splatter Movie: The Directors Cut will star and be directed by Happy Cloud
Pictures co-founder Amy Lynn Best (Abattoir, Severe Injuries) and will
co-star legendary special effects artist and actor Tom Sullivan (The Evil
Dead)! Also joining the cast are Elske McCain (Poultrygeist) and Bests
Abattoir cast-mates Sofiya Mina Smirnova, Rachelle Williams (Jess Francos
Take Away Spirit), Alyssa Herron, Nic Pesante, Stacy Bartlebaugh-Gmys Jeff
Waltrowski (Project Valkyrie) and Don Bumgarner.
