You smell that? It's not Ben-Gay. It's blood! Don't write off the elderly as frail sweet people just yet, folks. They can be just as nuts as anyone in their prime. Sit back in your rocker, pull up your shawl, and dig into the first news on Kill, Granny, Kill!
Kill, Granny, Kill! is billed as an outrageous, gore-filled, and over-the-top tribute to exploitation cinema, featuring the most amoral and degenerate Granny in the history of cinema. When this Granny says "no cursing," she's not fucking kidding!
Jacob Ennis directs the flick, which stars Kayla Perkins, Kristine Renee Farley, Jason Crowe, and Donna Swensen as the fiendish old folk.
Synopsis
Answering an in-home help ad for an elderly woman, Abby Daniels leaves family and friends for a remote farmhouse in the country. But all is not as it seems with her fluffy employer, whose locked doors and cellar seem to be hiding some unusual hobbies.

First up in the quartet of projects is the ’80s-slasher homage Babysitter Massacre, to be written and directed by Faces Of Schlock’s Henrique Couto. Next will be a pair from Low Budget Pictures’ busy Chris Seaver: the musical Phantom Of The Grindhouse and the comedic Paranormal Investigation Agency (P.I.A.). Scheduled to roll next summer is Kill, Granny, Kill! the latest gorefest by Stash and Red River’s Jacob Ennis and co-writer Gregory W. Brock.
“The production series is the newest endeavor in an ongoing campaign to support new and established filmmakers whose output embodies the spirit of ‘80s Sov [shot-on-video] Diy horror films,” says Alternative president/executive producer Michael Raso. “This is my second opportunity to act as executive producer on a Jacob Ennis feature, and Kill, Granny, Kill! will be every bit as visceral and blood-drenched—if not more so—than his hillbilly horror epic Red River.

Oh, hillbilly horror. What an ironic and bittersweet hold you have over my imagination. Regardless of how hard I try, I simply cannot bring myself to dislike genre flicks that incorporate the use of expansive wooded areas, bucks of cheap gore, and redneck stereotypes. The blood-soaked trailer for “Stash” director Jacob Ennis’ latest effort “Red River” utilizes all of the above, which all but assures that yours truly will be all over this sucker as soon as fate finds the time to unite us. In a manner of speaking, of course. Ennis is doing Kentucky proud. This one quietly hit DVD at the beginning of February, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for it. No telling where it might turn up. If you’re interested, here’s the plot: Set in a small town in the backwoods of Kentucky, Red River tells the tale of Roland Thatcher: a family man,...

"Let Me In" (2010)
Directed by Matt Reeves
Released by Anchor Bay Entertainment
"Never Let Me Go" (2010)
Directed by Mark Romanek

Two of 2010's most underrated films that approach their respective genres from radically different perspectives than most, "Cloverfield" director Matt Reeves' "Let Me In" and Mark Romanek's "Never Let Me Go" will finally have the opportunity to stand out on home video. In "Let Me In," Reeves applies some of his own biographical touchstones for this remake of Tomas Alfredson's horror film about the unlikely friendship between a vampire (Chloe Moretz) and a lonely young boy (Kodi Smit-McPhee). Romanek's adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro's much-beloved sci-fi novel about a group of children raised apart from the rest of society for purposes that are unknown to them.
