The Horror Collective announced today that 213 Bones, the feature directorial debut of late filmmaker Jeffrey Primm, will make its U.S. Premiere at the 26th annual Screamfest Horror Film Festival.
The film will screen Monday, October 12 at 7:00 p.m. At the TCL Chinese 6 Theatres in Hollywood.
Set in the Pacific Northwest in 1993, 213 Bones follows a group of anthropology students who discover that studying the past can be deadly. When human bones and personal belongings begin appearing around their campus, it becomes clear that a gruesomely masked killer is targeting them. Late-night study sessions soon become a frantic race to expose the murderer before every student becomes a textbook homicide case.
The film stars Luna Fujimoto (Blade of the 47 Ronin), Hunter Nance (Beyond the Rush), Colin Egglesfield (Something Borrowed, The Client List), Liam Woodrum (Geek Girl), Dean Cameron (Summer School), Francesca Barker McCormick, Sarah Brooks, Toni Weiss, Simone Lockhart, Allegra Sweeney, Elizabeth O’Brien and Mason Kennerly.
“Bringing 213 Bones to Screamfest for its U.S. Premiere feels exactly right,” said Shaked Berenson, CEO of Entertainment Squad.
“Jeffrey made this movie for audiences who love the fun, mystery and theatrical experience of a great slasher. We are proud to celebrate his work with horror fans on the big screen in Hollywood.”
Director and co-writer Jeffrey Primm passed away before the film’s world premiere at FrightFest in London. 213 Bones stands as his first and final feature film.
“This screening is incredibly meaningful to everyone who helped Jeffrey bring the film to life,” said producer John Michaels. &Ldquo;He loved the slasher genre and poured that love into every frame. Watching an audience experience the movie together is the best way we can honor him and his vision.
213 Bones was written by Jeffrey Primm and Dominic Arcelin and directed by Primm. The film was produced by John Michaels and Tyler Jon Olson. Executive produced by Joyce Schweikert. The Horror Collective acquired worldwide rights to the film, with Studio Dome handling international sales.
