Bloody Disgusting has learned today that Beaten to Death will open in theaters on September 1. While you wait, check out Creepy Duck Design’s official poster below.
Expect the official trailer tomorrow, August 23.
Beaten to Death “unfolds after a desperate choice leads a man named Jack down a path that leaves him beaten and bruised as he struggles against man, nature, and his own insanity.”
Here’s the full official logline for the outback horror movie: “Stranded in the middle of nowhere after barely surviving a horrific assault, Jack encounters one local after another and quickly learns that a sick game of cat and mouse is about to begin. Battling the deranged country psychos and the harsh landscape, Jack must go to extreme lengths to survive.”
Sam Curtain directed Beaten to Death, co-written with Benjamin Jung-Clarke. Thomas Roach, David Tracy, Justan Wagner and Nicole Tudor star.
Beaten to Death world premiered at Australia’s A Night Of Horror International Film Festival and has become a subject of controversy and curiosity due to the film’s extreme violence, and is being touted as a welcome return to the Outback horror subgenre.
“‘Beaten to Death’ is an absolute beast of a film, and is the type of boundary-pushing gut punch that the genre needs right now. It floored us.” says Luke LaBeau, Welcome Villain’s head of development. “Not only is it loaded with extreme, unrelenting violence, but it is just an incredibly well-made film on virtually every level.”
Meagan Navarro wrote in her Panic Fest review, “With Beaten to Death, there’s no question that filmmaker Sam Curtain delivers a discomforting gauntlet of extreme horror.”
