110 Crew Films has unveiled a Director’s Cut trailer for Don Capria’s music video horror movie, which will be released this September.
Rue Morgue had the exclusive reveal of the trailer, which tells the story of a scrappy new band getting a devilish bargain for a free music video.
Director’s Cut Trailer
A Long Island metal band meets a mysterious Director (Louis Lombardi / 24, Sopranos, Suicide Kings) on social media who offers to record their first music video for free. The band is desperate for fame. They take him up on his offer and drive to the woods of Pennsylvania, hoping to make a killer video.
After a night of drinking with this gregarious, obsequious director, the band wakes up to find a different version of him on set. Egos and opinions clash, and the Director unveils an uncompromising need for control. After a brief altercation, the band takes a break and thinks about returning home, but they decide they’ve come too far to turn back now and return to film, only to be trapped and tortured by a psychopath director and his killer friend. One by one, the director lures them into the performance space to torture them and make them star in his snuff music video.
“I wrote the film after filming a music video in a very precarious location in PA. As a music manager for over two decades, I have spent a lot of my time working with aspiring artists. I wanted to make Director’s Cut about artists at the bottom and the drama many of them go through when chasing the dream,” said director Don Capria. ”I also wanted the band’s demise to be a cautionary tale to the youth of today to mind your surroundings and tread carefully when you are seeking fame and fortune – there are some dangerous people out there waiting for you, especially in the music business.”
The cast of Director’s Cut includes Tyler Ivey, Haley Cassidy, Louis Rocky Bacigalupo, Brandy Ochoa, Greg Poppa, Danielle Kotch, and Darin Hicktok.
Director’s Cut will receive a limited theatrical release on September 12, 2024.
