‘Euthanizer’ Aims To Kill – In Theaters This July (Trailer)

From writer/director Teemy Nikki comes the dark, gritty film Euthanizer, opening in theaters this July. Veijo runs a black-market operation euthanizing people’s ailing pets to make extra money. It is clear he has dark secrets, but only after meeting a young nurse and a seedy mechanic (who’s mixed up with a vicious gang of neo-Nazis) that Veijo’s carefully balanced, albeit deranged, life begins to show cracks. Things turn to the extreme when Veijo does not finish a job he was paid to and his client finds out…in this grungy exploitation throwback. Described as a “great addition to – and a new take on – the current wave of grungy exploitation independent cinema” (The AV Club), Euthanizer combines horror and humor like never before. Matti Onnismaa, Jari Virman, Hannamaiji Nokander, and Heikki Nokander star in the thriller, opening in L.A theaters (other cities to be announced) from July 20, with a VOD release set for August 7, 2018, from Uncork’d Entertainment.
