THE GRAVES FIRST FOOTAGE IN ALL-NEW CALABRESE VIDEO: “Vampires Don’t exist” video features Tony Todd, Bill Moseley & D. Randall Blythe, among others

The first footage from the upcoming horror film, The Graves can be seen in the all-new video by horror-punk icons Calabrese posted here: http://www.youtube.com/thegravesmovie

The Graves is about sisters Megan and Abby whose visit to Skull City Mine turns into a mind bending fight for survival against menaces both human, and supernatural.

"We'll launch The Graves official trailer on July 20th, right before Comicon International, but we wanted to give everyone a sneak peek," says writer / director Brian Pulido. "We feature Calabrese early on in The Graves and this video is a natural extension of that scene."

THE GRAVES TEASER POSTER #7 (OF 8) DEACON LUKE (D. RANDALL BLYTHE)

The seventh of eight teaser posters to debut featuring the main characters from the film.

 The Stockton family formed the Church of Devout Ascension under severe drought and hardship in the late 1800’s and it continues to this day, rejuvenated by the prosperity caused by the “Miracle at Skull City”. But not everyone in the flock is willing to make the sacrifice’s Reverend Stockton demands. That’s where Deacon Luke comes in: comply and all is well. Resist and die a horrible death.

 D. Randall Blythe (screamer, Lamb of God) is pure, unbridled rage as Reverend Stockton’s “enforcer”.

 The Graves stars Clare Grant (Masters of Horror), Jillian Murray (The Fun Park), Bill Moseley (The Devil's Rejects, Texas Chainsaw Massacre II), Amanda Wyss (A Nightmare on Elm St., Dexter), D. Randall Blythe (Screamer, Lamb of God), Shane Stevens, Patti Tindall (Death of a Ghost Hunter), Barbara Glover (Red Rock West), Calabrese and Tony Todd (24, Candyman).

 The Graves is written and directed by independent comic book legend Brian Pulido (Chaos! Comics, Lady Death, Evil Ernie) and produced by Mischief Maker Studios, Brian Ronalds and Dean Ronalds of Ronalds Brothers Productions (Netherbeast, Inc.). Production Design by Francisca Pulido. Director of Photography Adam Goldfine.

 

TEASER POSTER #5 HELEN “MAMA” HEINBECKER (Barbara Glover)

When you head into Skull City Mine’s ticket shack, you can’t miss the ever-friendly Helen Heinbacker or “Mama” as the folks around Unity call her. It’s a peculiar moniker for a woman who has no family and professes to hate children. Don’t let her rotted smile fool you she’s a killer.

 Barbara Glower brings danger - and a bit of levity to Skull City’s knitting-needle wielding “greeter”.

 The Graves stars Clare Grant (Masters of Horror), Jillian Murray (The Fun Park), Bill Moseley (The Devil's Rejects, Texas Chainsaw Massacre II), Amanda Wyss (A Nightmare on Elm St., Dexter), D. Randall Blythe (Screamer, Lamb of God), Shane Stevens, Patti Tindall (Death of a Ghost Hunter), Barbara Glover (Red Rock West), Calabrese and Tony Todd (24, Candyman).

The Graves

PS - Let me explain the photos. I'm the dude with the 80's hair and leather jacket. At the top is Nick G. and myself (Nick is our Digital Assets Manager). That handsome young man kissing me (hey, its the arts!) -- That's Brian Ronalds, part of the producing duo, Ronalds Brothers Productions (I'm pretty sure Brian's brother Dean was at the bar around this time). RBP produced The Graves along with my production company, Mischief Maker Studios.

Below that shot, I am posing with my lovely wife and producing partner, Francisca. We've been an item for close to 18 years, and it only gets better. It is terrific to share this dream come true with Francisca and everyone from the cast & crew. It make it all worthwhile.
