SXSW Preview: Here Comes the Devil Director Returns With Late Phases

Here, Bogliano works with an exciting cast that includes Nick Damici, Ethan Embry, Erin Cummings and Tom Noonan. While I wasn’t a fan of the first two aforementioned films, Here Comes the Devil showed definite promise and growth, even if it needed some trimming. I’m very curious to see what Bogliano does with this supposed lycanthrope story.

The synopsis: Crescent Bay is not the best place to live out one’s golden years.  Once an idyllic retirement community, the secluded neighborhood has been beset by mysterious and deadly attacks.  When grizzled war veteran Ambrose McKinley (Nick Damici) moves in, the residents immediately take offense to his abrasive personality.  But his take-no-prisoners attitude is just what he needs to survive as it becomes clear that the increasingly violent and patterned attacks are being caused by beasts that are neither animal nor man, and the tight-knit community of Crescent Bay is harboring something truly sinister in its midst…

Screenings for Late Phases begin Sunday, March 9th. For further details, click here. Shock Till You Drop will be in Austin covering the fest – stay tuned for reviews, interviews and more!
