Coleman Bros. Films have just released the Official Trailer and poster (by Deadite Corpse) for their new indie horror movie The Burned Over District.

 

Co-produced by White Lion Studios, The Burned Over District is written and directed by Rochester natives James and Vince Coleman and is based on actual historic events that occurred near their hometown in the 1800s.

 

In the film, “After losing his wife in a horrific car accident, grieving widower Will (Jon Sheedy) retreats to a quiet town in Western New York. His respite is cut short when he discovers that the town and its residents are hiding a dark and terrible secret. Together Will and his sister Katie (Amy Zubieta) must fight to survive the ancient darkness that has consumed The Burned Over District.”

 

Special Effects veteran Michael Del Rossa (“Humanoids From the Deep,” “300”) splatters the screen with his visceral creations in the film described as “Pet Sematary meets Mandy, with a little Hereditary thrown in the mix.”

 

The Burned Over District is currently in post-production and will be completed in May of this year.
