Fresh off the film’s premiere at SXSW, the slasher movie Bitch Ass has been acquired by Quiver Distribution, we’ve learned, with the label planning an October 14, 2022 release.
“Following an enthusiastic reception at SXSW, we look forward to bringing Bitch Ass to horror fans across America who will undoubtedly appreciate the mix of comedy and thrills Bill [Posley] brings to this unique genre film,” said Quiver’s Berry Meyerowitz and Jeff Sackman.
If you’ve ever wanted to see Tony Todd play a Cryptkeeper-like horror host, Bitch Ass (read Meagan’s review) has got you covered in that department.
Meagan explains, “Bitch Ass opens with Tony Todd, playing himself, as a Tales from the Crypt-like curator and host to introduce the tale. It sets up the potential for a brand-new cinematic anthology, but more importantly, it instills the tone. Bitch Ass might carve up some kills and touch on serious subject matter, but it’s out to deliver an entertaining time most of all.”
In Bitch Ass, directed by Bill Posley…
“In 1999 a gang initiation goes wrong when recruits break into the deadly game house of cinema’s first Black masked serial killer. Think Don’t Breathe meets Squid Games, but… Black.”
Sheaun McKinney, Tunde Laleye, Me’Lisa Sellers, and Teon Kelly star.
Jonathan Colomb wrote the script with Bill Posley.
