JOE LYNCH TO DIRECT FOODIE-THEMED HORROR THRILLER "TASTE"
JOE LYNCH SET TO DIRECT THE FOODIE-THEMED HORROR THRILLER ‘TASTE’ FROM PENCHANT ENTERTAINMENT
Lynch most recently helmed critically-acclaimed ‘Mayhem’ at SXSW; production set for late summer
Penchant Entertainment has announced that Joe Lynch has come onboard
to direct the horror film TASTE. Written by David Cohen, the project
will be produced by Cohen, and Penchant partners Erin Eggers,
Chase Hudson and Matthew Porter. TASTE has qualified for the California
tax credit and will shoot in Los Angeles later this summer.
When a young
chef-on-the-rise is invited to cook for a revered master’s private
supper club, what at first seems like a career-launching opportunity,
soon turns deadly with the discovery that she and her husband are at
risk of becoming
dinner themselves. Redefining the term “farm-to table,” this
deliciously disturbing film will leave audiences and foodies alike
forever questioning what arrives on their plates.
“We are thrilled to be
collaborating with Joe on TASTE. His genre track record and irreverent
sensibility are the perfect fit for this quick-witted and timely horror
film,” said Eggers.
“I’ve been dying to direct
something darker in the genre and when I read David’s script, which had a
fantastic take on the current Foodie/Haute Cuisine culture, I was
pretty much salivating, pun intended. I’m thrilled to be working with
Penchant to bring this fantastically twisted and exciting tale to life
and make people rethink what’s for dinner,” said Lynch.
Lynch’s latest film MAYHEM
(starring THE WALKING DEAD’s Steven Yeun) recently premiered at the SXSW
Film Festival to glowing reviews, won the Audience Award at the
Chattanooga Film Festival and is currently screening at festivals
worldwide.
RLJ Entertainment and AMC Networks' Shudder are partnering on the North
American release of the film through a deal finalized at the 70th
Cannes International Film Festival.
In addition to MAYHEM,
Lynch is best known for helming WRONG TURN 2: DEAD END with Henry
Rollins, KNIGHTS OF BADASSDOM with Peter Dinklage and EVERLY with Salma
Hayek. Prior to his feature work, Lynch directed music videos for Faith
No More, 311, Pete Yorn, DevilDriver, Strapping Young Lad among others,
and created the hit show URANIUM for Fuse. Lynch is also one half of
the popular THE MOVIE CRYPT podcast with fellow director Adam Green
(HATCHET, FROZEN), which was named one of 2015’s
Top Podcasts by Entertainment Weekly and is consistently on iTunes Top
25 Film & TV podcasts. Lynch and Green previously collaborated on
multiple projects together, including the cult TV sitcom HOLLISTON for
ArieScope and FEARnet.
Dave Cohen is currently
packaging his script SUBJECT ZERO, which was featured on the Black List.
Previously, Dave wrote NO ONE LIVES, directed by Ryûhei Kitamura,
starring Luke Evans. The film premiered at the Toronto Film Festival as
part of the Midnight
Section and was released by WWE Studios. Pathe International produced
and financed. Dave also wrote THE VATICAN, a conspiracy-driven thriller,
for Warner Bros., director William Brent Bell (THE DEVIL INSIDE) and
producer Roy Lee.
Feature film and television
executives and producers Eggers, Hudson and Porter launched Penchant
earlier this year to create sophisticated, commercial entertainment for
audiences worldwide. Their current slate of projects include the
critically-acclaimed New York Times and Amazon bestselling book Hostage
to the Devil, TV project “THE SCRAWL,” from recent Oscar® nominee, Eric
Heisserer (THE ARRIVAL) and WGA-award-winner Zach Crawly (HEROES
REBORN) and the feature THE MEAN TIDE, written
by Liska Ostojic & Justin Partridge, from a screenplay by Mark
DeGaetani, and helmed by award-winning indie director Shana Betz (FREE
RIDE starring Anna Paquin).

Eisner award winning Bellaire and Del Rey launch witchy new series
First
announced at Emerald City Comic Con, the new ongoing series
REDLANDS—created by the all-female team of bestselling, Eisner
award-winning Jordie Bellaire (PRETTY DEADLY, Vision, Batman) and critically-acclaimed Vanesa R. del Rey (ZERO, Scarlet Witch, Constantine)—will launch this August.
“Redlands is my sick, weird love letter to Stephen King, Florida and Riot Grrrls everywhere but ultimately, hate mail for everything else,” said Bellaire. “Inspired by the strange complexities of real world politics and crime, the characters of Redlands play victim and villain, attempting to understand themselves and others, through murder, magic and mayhem.”
REDLANDS introduces readers to the sleepy, sunny town of Redlands, Florida where the police are failing to maintain control of their old-fashioned community and a coven of killer witches plan to take everything from them.
Del Rey added: “The world of Redlands was brewed in darkness, it is murky waters, it is a gloomy day in the humidity of the mangroves. There is ferocity in this land, it is savagery that goes deep noir. The stories that develop in this world are as intricate as the etched lines that depict them.”
Marrying the sexy, witchy-goodness of Greg Rucka and Nicola Scott's BLACK MAGICK and Melissa de la Cruz's beloved Witches of East End with the deep-South atmosphere of Jason Aaron and Jason Latour's SOUTHERN BASTARDS and American Horror Story: Coven, REDLANDS is set to be the horror series of the summer.

ARROW VIDEO'S AUGUST 2017 BLU-RAY/DVD SLATE
The summer really hots up in August, as Arrow Video releases a white-knuckle thriller, a cult comedy making its worldwide Blu-ray debut, two splatter horror classics, a giallo masterpiece and a rare Italian sword-and-sandal epic.
First up is the long awaited worldwide Blu-ray debut of Shock Treatment, the cult musical comedy written by and starring Richard O’Brien, the legendary creator of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. The lead characters from that film, Brad and Janet, here become involved in a devilishly deviant gameshow, in a film that bills itself as not a sequel… not a prequel… but an equal to Rocky Horror! With a host of fantastic extras, these limited edition ‘Nation’ and ‘Cosmo’ releases come with collector cards and a poster, in superb new packaging.
This month also sees the Dual Format release of the star-studded, action-packed crime thriller Ronin, from master director John Frankenheimer (Seconds, The Manchurian Candidate), starring Robert De Niro (Taxi Driver, Heat), Jean Reno (Léon: The Professional) and Sean Bean (Stormy Monday, Game of Thrones). A fantastically entertaining heist-gone-wrong crime caper, featuring one of the greatest car chases ever committed to film, Ronin is presented in a brand new, cinematographer-approved 4K restoration, along with a host of behind the scenes featurettes, with a reversible sleeve, and a collector’s booklet with the first pressing.
Mid-August onwards sees horror fans spoiled for choice: starting with the Dual Format release of Lucio Fulci’s masterpiece giallo Don’t Torture a Duckling, starring Italian genre stalwarts Tomas Milian and Barbara Bouchet trying to find out who is responsible for a spate of mysterious murders in a sleepy village. Widely regarded as Fulci's greatest film, the 1972 classic is presented in a High Definition Blu-ray, with a new commentary and interviews, and a collector’s booklet with the first pressing.
Then there is the Dual Format release of controversial splatter classic The Slayer,JS Cardone’s gruesome 80s chiller about a group of friends trapped on a remote island and stalked by a crazed killer. The infamous slasher film, previously only been available on home video in truncated or full screen versions, comes lovingly restored from the original negative, in a stunning transfer that will be a revelation to fans both old and new; and the first pressing includes a collector’s booklet with brand new writing on the film.
Another splatterific offering coming out on Blu-ray is The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, Tobe Hooper’s extraordinary 1986 sequel to his seminal horror classic, mixing horror and comedy to splendid effect and featuring the unforgettable sight of Dennis Hopper (Speed, Easy Rider) wielding twin chainsaws. A cult classic in its own right, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 serves up a heady blend of gratuitous gore, socio-political critique and jet-black humour, and is presented in High Definition Blu-ray presentation, from a digital transfer supervised by director of photography Richard Kooris.
At the end of August comes the Dual Format release Erik the Conqueror, a 1961 sword-and-sandal epic from Italian supremo Mario Bava, a rare detour from the master director away from genre thrillers like Rabid Dogs and A Bay of Blood. Inspired by the Kirk Douglas hit The Vikings, this is a tale of treachery, heroism and forbidden love starring George Ardisson (Juliet of the Spirits) in the title role, and Hollywood legend Cameron Mitchell (Blood and Black Lace). Restored in high definition for the first time, and packed with extras, as well as a collector’s booklet with the first pressing, this is a must for Bava fans and lovers of spectacular swashbucklers.
Shock Treatment - on Blu-ray on 7 August 2017
Fans of The Rocky Horror Picture Show rejoice - Brad and Janet (played here by Jessica Harper and Cliff De Young) return in 1981’s Shock Treatment,
Richard O’Brien’s delirious send-up on TV game shows. Starring O’Brien

comedy stars including Rik Mayall, Barry Humphries and Ruby Wax, this
cult oddity makes its worldwide Blu-ray debut thanks to Arrow Video, in a
magnificent collector’s editions (based around lead characters Dr
Nation and Dr Quinn) featuring a host of extras as well as collector’s
cards and a poster. Choose between two shocking slipcase designs - Nation McKinley / Bert Schnick or Cosmo McKinley / Janet Majors!
Ronin - on Dual Format Blu-ray + DVD on 14 August 2017
Robert
De Niro, Jean Reno, Sean Bean and Natascha McElhone star in John
Frankenheimer’s superb full throttle thriller, a slickly-plotted gem
featuring double crosses and car chases like you’ve never seen. Loaded
with extras and presented in a brand new 4k restoration produced
exclusively for the release, this is a the greatest presentation yet of
this 90s action classic.
Don’t Torture a Duckling - on Dual Format Blu-ray + DVD on 14 August 2017
Arguably
horror film legend Lucio Fulci’s greatest achievement, this giallo
masterpiece ticks all the boxes for aficionados of Italian red herring
murder mysteries, with bodies piling up, festering small town corruption
and shocking kills, as well as lead roles for giallo favourites Tomas
Milian and Barbara Bouchet. The Dual Format release boasts a new
commentary and interviews, a superbly illustrated reversible sleeve, and
a collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the film with the first
pressing.
The Slayer - on Dual Format Blu-ray + DVD on 21 August 2017

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 - on Blu-ray on 21 August 2017
“There
is nothing to fear but fear itself!” So says Dennis Hopper as ex-cop
Lefty Enright in Tobe Hooper’s insanely enjoyable sequel to his 70s

Leatherface, Chop-top and Grandpa, deep in the heart of Texas. The
fantastic Blu-ray package includes a commentary from Hooper,
