Franck Richard’s ‘The Pack’ (AKA ‘La Meute’) has been picked up by Icon here in the UK and will be receiving a UK-based DVD and Blu-Ray release! And in addition to this great bit of newsage it appears that the Brit horror illustrator Graham Humphreys will be providing the sleeve art (check it out below). Humphreys, as you should know(!), is responsible for some fantastic artwork from some classic horror’s such as ‘Evil Dead’, ‘Evil Dead II’, ‘Basket Case’ and a bunch of ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street’ video artwork too (parts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5). My personal favourite is his ‘Evil Dead 2’ UK Quad poster which has been attached to my office wall for years! ‘The Pack’ stars stars Émilie Dequenne (below), Yolande Moreau, Eric Godon, Philippe Nahon, Benjamin Biolay, Brice Fournier and is written as well as helmed by Richard. Check the artwork and trailer below.
“In the middle of a snowy no man’s land, Charlotte picks up Max, a hitchhiker; they stop in a truck-stop restaurant, and when Max doesn’t come back from the bathroom, Charlotte starts looking for him in vain. She decides to return during the night but gets kidnapped by the bartender, La Spack, who turns out to be Max’s mother and needs to feed her kids, ‘The pack’, a bunch of blood lusting ghouls. Charlotte now faces a terrifying reality: these ghouls are already dead… and hungry. Alone and in the middle of nowhere, she quickly realizes… she’s next on the menu!”
Catch ‘The Pack’ on DVD and Blu-Ray here in the UK from 4 July.
