Based on the real life story of serial killer Alexander Spesivtsev, No Tears in Hell stars Luke Baines as the killer, whose heinous crimes in the early '90s earned him the nickname the Siberian Ripper. Gwen Van Dam plays his overbearing mother, who assisted in luring victims to their home.
Written and directed by Michael Caissie from a story by Alexander Nistratov, the film also stars Tatjana Marjanovic, Audrey Neal, Gabriella Westwood and Erik Fellows.
"No Tears in Hell was without a doubt the most difficult, but rewarding film to make," says Caissie. "From writing the script-to physical production, and to ultimately seeing the finished film, it really was an emotional rollercoaster for everyone. From having to take emotional breaks from the writing, to witnessing cast, crew and even myself crying at the monitor because it was so intense, I knew I was making something important, and I'm really excited for audiences in North America, and all over the world to see this unforgettable film."
No Tears in Hell is on US VOD from August 12th. A UK/ROI release has yet to be announced.

The official synopsis reads:
In the frozen darkness of an Alaskan winter, a mother and son turn their home into a house of nightmares — luring victims into a twisted web of abuse and cannibalism.
