“A strong idea backed
up with strong visual style, Blood Hunters is a genre fan’s dream, or more
aptly, nightmare come true”: www.thehollywoodnews.com
“Definitely one of
the best films at FrightFest 2016 Blood Hunters is that rare beast of a movie
that offers tons of on edge entertainment while managing to be extremely
intelligent and emotionally involving as well”: www.lovehorror.co.uk
“The script is also
excellent; each character is instantly rounded and made relatable despite,
refreshingly, being a bit of an asshole. They argue like real people and, save
for the slightly cartoonish clergyman, approach their increasingly unpleasant
situations as real people would”: www.horrorcultfilms.co.uk
“Clearly filmed with
a minimal budget, Lee also does a great job with the locations, with the
medical facility seeming both claustrophobic and labyrinthine at the same time”:
www.movieramblings.com
STORYLINE: tells the story of a single mother
who wakes up in the basement of a medical facility only to discover that
everyone around her is dead and she is somehow nine months pregnant. As she
struggles to escape, she encounters other survivors, each with their own
secret. Together they must unlock the mysteries of the facility which will take
them to the brink of death and beyond..
SUMMARY-INFO: BLOOD
HUNTERS is the terrifying new horror film from director Tricia Lee and Film Monkey Productions.
Lee, one of the very few successful female directors in the genre, made a splash
on the scene with her first feature Clean Break and her second feature Silent Retreat. Since the long-time team
of Tricia Lee and writer Corey Brown won Best Canadian Feature
at the Toronto After Dark Film Festival,
they have been working on the script, formerly titled One Drop for their new
horror creature feature and are excited to see their vision become a reality.
In
order to bring her chilling vision to life, Tricia Lee and casting director
Kristen
Henderson
assembled a fantastic cast:
• Benjamin Arthur (LESS THAN KIND, WORKING THE ENGELS)
• Torri Higginson (STARGATE: ATLANTIS, THIS LIFE)
• Mark Taylor (FLASHPOINT, INSTANT STAR)
• Julian Richings (ORPHAN BLACK, SUPERNATURAL)
• Peter Blankenstein (THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE I,II,III)
Given all the recent
news about the struggles of female filmmakers, nowhere is this more evident
than in the horror genre. The tiny handful of women helming genre films is no doubt
a contributing factor to why most horror screenplays are told from the male perspective,
despite the fact that a solid 50 percent of horror audiences are female.
