Poe's Casting Couch is Deadly in this Clip

The first trailer and poster for Francis Xavier's Poe has been released by Metropolis Pictures Entertainment. In the trailer for Poe a mutilated, nude, female corpse is investigated by detectives as a serial killer named "The Chef" turns aspiring actresses into chuck. A slight nod to famous American writer Edgar Allan Poe is provided by Xavier and fans with an interest in the film need to be eighteen or older to step inside, as Poe sets the standard for Red Band trailers.

A partial synopsis for Poe here:

"Poe tells the story of brilliant and wealthy Dr. Andrew Casey (David Fine; Rent, The Red Door) who is a serial killer known by the name of The Chef. His need for notoriety causes Dr. Andrew Casey to seek out writer Johnathan Poe (Stelio Savante), a descendant of the famed writer Edgar Allan Poe and a brilliant writer in his own right, with an offer to write his biography. Poe is intrigued and agrees to the assignment. Dr. Casey along with his butler Mr. Peeples (Mike Iorio) lures women to his home under the alias of film director Jack Conway with the pretense of meeting to discuss a well-paying role. Once the women arrive, they are tied up, drugged and eventually sliced up to be used for meat to feed the homeless at the Help Feeding Foundation soup kitchen. Once at the house, Poe is forced to witness all manner of horrors without the ability to either escape or help the women who have been captured" (Bloody).

Release Date: 2010.
