‘Cannibal Comedian’ Comes To Screambox This March [Exclusive Photos]
If you love horror and stand-up comedy, then you need to check out writer and director Sean Haitz’s new film Cannibal Comedian, slated to release this March from Cineverse, Screambox, and Scream Team Releasing!
Cannibal Comedian tells the story of a psychopathic cannibal who is fed up with his lack of ambition and takes a stab at stand-up comedy in an attempt to chase both his dreams and his victims.
Aaron Prager (Haunted House of Pancakes), Austin Judd (Big Top Evil), and Robert Dunne (Criminal Minds) star in the film, alongside horror veterans Allen Danziger and Edwin Neal, best known for their iconic roles in Tobe Hooper’s 1974 classic The Texas Chain Saw Massacre as “Jerry” and “The Hitchhiker”, respectively. This reunion also marks Danziger’s first return to horror in 50 years.
We have some exclusive photos from the upcoming horror-comedy for you to sink your teeth into below:
“We are thrilled to partner with Cineverse and Scream Team Releasing to bring Cannibal Comedian to the horror and stand-up comedy fans,” says Haitz. “I think people are really going to eat it up! It’s a love letter to my favorite horror classics like Texas Chainsaw and comedies such as Ace Ventura. When I first moved out to Los Angeles, I had the opportunity to try my hand at stand-up and quickly realized how brutal it was, but for the main character of ‘Charlie,’ he kills both on stage and off stage.”
Scream Team Releasing will be releasing Cannibal Comedian on Blu-ray, as well as limited edition VHS copies signed by the cast and crew.
