The school set shocker is coming this summer.
Cult distribution outfit Artsploitation Films aren't known for shying away from movies featuring controversial subject matter. Their latest acquisition tackles the hot topic of school shootings, with a horror twist.
Director Jeremy Kasten's The Dead Ones sees a quartet of students assigned to cleaning duties in their high school by way of detention. They soon find themselves struggling to survive when they become the prey of a gang of masked assailants, while also forced to relive traumatic events from their past.
Sarah Rose Harper, Brandon Thane Wilson, Katie Foster and Torey Garza star.
The Dead Ones will be released this summer on DVD/Blu-ray and VOD.
Check out the trailer below.
The official synopsis reads:
For four outcast teens, summer detention means being assigned to clean their high school after a horrific incident. But they are not alone; a macabre gang wearing guises of The Four Horsemen Of The Apocalypse - Famine, Pestilence, War and Death - has locked them inside and is hunting them through the school's ravaged hallways. As the four students battle to survive, each must confront the supernatural echoes of past traumas they have struggled to forget - and may be condemned to relive.
