After Dark Horrorfest 2007 Info!

Last year After Dark’s first ever Horrorfest did moderately well pulling in $2,575,000 over the course of a three-day weekend as it unveiled “8 Film’s To Die For” and they are at it again this year as they have revealed six of the eight titles as well as a trailer on the official site. Out of the eight films last year, one of them actually saw an individual theatrical release when The Abandoned hit theaters earlier this year.

The eight include The Deaths of Ian Stone from director Dario Piana, Nightmare Man from director Rolfe Kanefsky, Frontiers from Hitman director Xavier Gens, Unearthed from director Matthew Leutwyler, Mulberry Street from director Jim Mickle and Borderland directed by Zev Berman.

Two more films are yet to be announced, but there is a cool little teaser trailer for the festival right here and I have included the synopses and cast information below from what the site has revealed.

Look for After Dark’s Horrorfest 2007 from November 9-18. RopeofSilicon will continue to have updated information as it becomes available right here.

The Deaths of Ian Stone:

After receiving a mysterious mask, Ellen Morris believes she was attacked by an evil being she calls ‘Nightmare Man’. Her husband, Bill, believes she is crazy. On their way to the mental hospital their car breaks down and Bill goes to get gas, leaving Ellen alone. When Nightmare Man appears, Ellen takes off into the woods, unsure whether she is hallucinating or not. She stumbles upon a cabin filled with friends who unknowingly becoming prey the moment Ellen steps inside.

Frontiers:

Yasmine, her ex-boyfriend and his two friends are entrenched in the Paris riots, stealing a large sum of money before they head for the Danish border. On their way, they check into a motel where things appear to be too good to be true (easy attractive women and free rooms). But looks are deceiving as this motel rapidly turns into a house of horrors run by a Neo-Nazi family that never lets people check out.

Unearthed:

A vicious creature that’s been trapped for 900 years, gets unearthed during an archeological dig in the middle of a desolate town. As the carnage escalates, the local sheriff and a group of stranded civilians must find a way to destroy the creature that only has one mission – complete annihilation.

Mulberry Street:

The Manhattan streets explode into chaos as a rat-borne virus is unleashed. With every bite, city dwellers turn into bloodthirsty, rodent-like creatures that violently attack anyone they can get their teeth into. As the city is shut down, and the government neglects to send in rescue units, the residents of an apartment building must ban together or be eaten alive.
