Indie Film Skeleton Crew Leaves Scars: Movie Poster, Synopsis, and Trailer



Director Tommi Lepola has given the first trailer and movie poster a green light for "Skeleton Crew." A snuff film plot device is sure to generate some excitement as this low budget film moves towards a release date. Starring several first time actors and actresses "Skeleton Crew," is announcing a mid 2009, straight-to-DVD release as shooting just began late in 2008. Have a look at the first teaser trailer, with cast and crew information inside...

A synopsis...

In the early 1970’s, a remote mental institution next to the Russian border was shut down by the police. Before it was closed Dr. Andersson made a series of snuff films using his patients. The doctor filmed all the murders in 8mm, and started to call himself ‘The Auteur.’ Thirty years later, an American film crew arrives in Finland to shoot a horror movie about the massacre, and are unaware that they are about to become the stars of their director’s real life snuff film. Instead of making a horror film, they are in one. The Auteur is slaying the Skeleton Crew one by one…“There’s no sequel for you (Horror-movies.ca)!”

Release Date: July 21, 2009.

Rating: The teaser makes this one look like a hard R.

Director: Tommi Lepola, and Tero Molin.

Writer(s): Tero Molin, and Teemu Molin.

Cast: Rita Suomalainen, Steve Porter, Anna Alkiomaa, Jonathan Rankle, Jani Lahti, and Ville Arasalo.

I see you don't get many comments.

Just thought I should let you know that I check your blog every day (as I'm sure you can see in the statistics) and that I read every post you do.

Yes, I do not get many comments. Any idea why this is? But, I love movies and reviews so much I would probably post everyday anyways:)

Thanks for commenting (I am going to see if I can get a review up for "Vinyan," or "Shuttle," today or tomorrow).

I think that people read the blog but can't really be bothered to post comments (I'm guilty of this).

Good to know this doesn't put you off posting :D (and thanks for posting a comment on my blog!).

Looking forward to the Shuttle review!

(I like how you aren't too harsh in your movie reviews. Much like myself.)
