‘Wineville’ Exclusive Trailer: The Streets Run Red With Blood and Wine
Get ready horror fans, because Baywatch‘s Brande Roderick is breaking into the horror world with her directorial debut Wineville. Inspired by a series of very real and brutal murders, Roderick is making her mark on the genre with one bloody debut.
Read the full synopsis below:
Set in the 70s, Wineville follows Tess (Brande Roderick), who’s forced to return to the California winery that was her childhood home following the death of her brutal and abusive father. Now a single mom raising her 11-year-old son, Tess dreads setting foot again in the house filled with hateful and painful memories. Once there, she’s immediately confronted by her bitter and unforgiving aunt, who runs the place with her adult son.
However, while trying to sort out her inheritance and dealing with an attraction to the mercurial young ranch hand, a violent murder reveals the evil still just below the surface. In order to escape once again and save both herself and her son, Tess will need to uncover the horrible truth of her own past and the roots of the murderous legacy that has been unleashed once again.
Watch the official trailer exclusively on Dread Central:
Wineville is inspired by the true events of the Wineville Chicken Coop Murders, a series of kidnappings and murders of young boys in Los Angeles and Riverside counties, California, between 1926 and 1928. These heinous crimes garnered significant notoriety due to their brutal nature and the subsequent investigation, which ultimately led to the renaming of Wineville to Mira Loma in an effort to distance the area from the negative association. The Wineville Chicken Coop Murders remain one of the most infamous criminal cases in California’s history.
Roderick said of the film, “Wineville was influenced by 70s horror classics like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Last House on the Left, as I wanted my first feature to be not only in the horror genre that I loved so much growing up, but to also pay homage to the flavor and style of that decade’s films that made such an impact on me.”
Roderick stars in the film with Carolyn Hennesy (General Hospital, Cougar Town), Texas Battle (Hard Kill), Casey King (Star Trek: Pickard) and Keaton Roderick Cadrez. Richard Schenkman (The Man From Earth) wrote Wineville and also produced alongside Roderick, Robin DeMartino, and Todd Slater.
Dark Star Pictures releases Wineville in select theaters on September 6, 2024, and on VOD/Digital and Physical Media on September 10, 2024.
