In thrilling news for horror comedy enthusiasts, Gravitas Ventures has recently acquired the rights to distribute the highly anticipated film 'Easter Bloody Easter' by WallyBird Productions. The film is set to be released in North America and select international markets, including Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, on video on demand on March 26.
Directed by Diane Foster, who also stars in the film, 'Easter Bloody Easter' marks her directorial debut. Alongside Foster, the stellar cast includes Kelly Grant, Allison Lobel, Zuri Starks, D'Andre Noiré, Zachary Kanner, Miles Cooper, and Gavin Lee. Lobel contributed to the script of this horror comedy, which is intended to be the first installment of a brand new horror franchise of the same name.
The story revolves around a character named Jeanie (portrayed by Foster), who embarks on a chilling journey when she discovers her husband missing and his car wrecked with blood and fur. Determined to uncover the truth behind the town's dark legend of the killer Jackalope – a shapeshifting human-rabbit hybrid that terrorized the area centuries ago – Jeanie teams up with her friend Carol. Their mission takes a thrilling turn when they join forces with Megan, a professional bunny slayer, to save their small Texan town from the imminent threat of the Jackalope just as the community is about to celebrate 'Easter-palooza.'
