Personally I think it only makes sense that one day horror and porn would come together in some sort of twisted relationship, but unfortunately all the instances of it up until now have been more than a little ridiculous (Re-Penatrator, anyone?) Always holding out hope that someone would come along and actually do it right, and now it appears someone may have.
Hustler Magazine has announced their partnership with VCA Pictures to form Midnite Films, a genre label that will devote itself to making horror movies with hardcore sex something that isn’t immediately dismissed as trash. Or so we hope.
Their first film is called Blood Lake and in a press release it’s director, first-timer C.L. Gregory, explains what he hoped to accomplish; “I wanted to take the hard hitting horror that’s out in the market today and take the sex already in most good horror films even further, basically giving the viewer the same horror and suspense, and hot looking girls having sex. But of course they got to die in the end”.
The story of Blood Lake revolves around a remote cabin that contains a book. Before you start thinking about tree rapes and evil hands, read on… The book is a list of the names of people who followed a preacher by the name of Jacob back in 1890, a group of people who disappeared, along with Jacob, never to be heard from again. In present day the book is found, of course someone has to read aloud from it, and bad stuff starts happening anew.
We’ll wait for more info, as well as a look at the film (you know, for review purposes…) and let you know more when we do! For now you can get a more detailed synopsis at the official site for Midnite Films, which is right here.
