The Circus of the Dead Is Coming to Town
After what’s felt like a lifetime, Billy Pon’s Circus of the Dead is finally seeing the light of day. Rue Morgue reports that the long-awaited shocker will arrive on iTunes and Amazon Instant Video on February 10, with the Blu-ray slated for a March release.
The film, which stars Bill Oberst, Jr., Farrish Randall, Chanel Ryan, Roger Edwards, and Brad Potts, arrives on the back of a wave of momentum, having garnered buzz on the indie scene for nearly two years.
And let me tell you something, my precious gore whores: It lives up to the hype. This is the Okada vs. Omega of upcoming indie horror releases.
Mark my words: Circus of the Dead is a film horror hounds are going to eat up like a custard pie to the face. It’s funny, menacing, unhinged, nihilistic, and unabashedly sadistic; yet, somewhere in its black heart there’s a moral story, albeit a very warped one.
Of course, this isn’t a film for the faint-hearted; but if you like your scare fare with some snarl, bite, and a lethal injection of gallows humor, this will hit the spot just nicely.

Armed with guns, knives, and a ’68 Camaro, the clowns lead Don on an all-night crime spree through oil-soaked West Texas. Papa Corn’s wild ride brings blood, gore, and mayhem to all he encounters.
