SPLATTER RAMPAGES MIDNIGHT SKATER
Extreme gore fans should get ready to sink their teeth into the latest Splatter Rampage release, MIDNIGHT SKATER (advance orders ship early March, national street May 25). This splatter mini-classic comes courtesy of Kent, Ohio’s Speed Freak Productions, who brought us the zany antics seen in last year’s SPLATTER RAMPAGE WRESTLING. Spearheaded by brothers Andy & Luke Campbell, the Speed Freak gang are all a bunch of die-hard horror fanatics and that passion truly shows in their work.
Something strange is happening on a small-town college campus… Students have been disappearing and the only clues left behind are a bloody corpse and the name ‘Midnight Skater.’ A group of nosy kids take it upon themselves to put an end to the mystery, but find out they may be in over their heads! Theyll have to make their way through the colleges dark side of drugs, lies and murder in order to find out who is behind it all. Prepare for an all-out gorefest in one of the most bloody twisted tales of horror ever told!
MIDNIGHT SKATER begins a new era in Splatter Rampage history. Tempe has split the label off from its existing deal with Ventura Distribution, and all national sales & marketing on Splatter Rampage will now be handled by Pro-Active Entertainment Group (all titles can still be ordered direct from Tempe). This will allow us to get a few more titles out the door each year and put a special focus on movies that are a bit more graphic in nature. And if there’s one thing that MIDNIGHT SKATER doesn’t skimp on, it’s the blood and gore! This is the kind of movie that the Splatter Rampage label was created for…drug-addicted zombies ripping apart kids on a college campus!
The SKATER disc includes a handful of bonus features, including 17 minutes of deleted scenes, a commentary track with the Speed Freak crew and a short film ‘The Stranger’. If that’s not enough, the Speed Freakers have already wrapped up their latest project, DEMON SUMMER, which will debut from Splatter Rampage this June. This one is a must for fans of THE EVIL DEAD series. A trailer for DEMON SUMMER is featured on the SKATER DVD. These guys are starting to really make a name for themselves in no-budget horror, and with good reason…they deliver the gory goods!
MIDNIGHT SKATER has a national street date of May 25 and a $19.99 SRP, but all advance orders will ship as they are placed beginning in early March. Don’t miss out stock up on this soon-to-be cult hit!
