A crazed young woman kidnaps a man while at a bar and holds him hostage.

Sure, it's a commendable thing to try and take an original approach to a standard horror film premise, but it's another thing to do something so outlandish that the film loses all touch with reality. The horror genre asks for the greatest suspension of disbelief out of any genre, but there is always some kind of emotion or being able to relate to a character or event in a film that helps to keep them credible. Without credibility, there is a distance between the viewer and the film as that ability to relate to something in the film is missing. Dead Enders approach to mixing poetic & stylistic elements against a modern horror backdrop, while different, simply doesn't work, because...

The perfect complement to a good trailer is a nice bit of artwork, and since we live in the time of The Jetsons (sans the jet-packs and flying cars), posters have become increasingly more intricate. Such is the case for this latest poster for Craig McMahon's The Crypt!

Starring Sarah Oh, Abra May, Cristen Irene, Joanna Ke, Delaina Stevens, Hollywood Yates, Michael Ranallo, and Seth Gandrud The Crypt centers upon the story of six young criminals who break into hidden catacombs underneath their town and attempt to steal jewelry buried during the "Great Depression" only to find its inhabitants guarding the precious belongings.

Plunder graves in the Dread...

Craig McMahon, writer/director of 2006’s MacHined, got in touch with a bit of info and some exclusive images from his latest fright feature, The Crypt. “We shot the film in Arizona,” McMahon tells Fango, “all in sets built over a three-month period, with parts filmed in an underwater tank.”

McMahon (pictured in first photo with associate producer Nathan Hill) also served as cinematographer and editor on the movie, and says, “I shot it with heavy influences of very early horror of the 1930s and ’40s. The story centers on these criminals who break into crypts looking for jewelry hidden during the Great Depression, and run into creatures from the era that won’t allow anyone to take from them. For the most part, the cast is made up of new talent, but we do have ‘The Wolf’ [a.k.a. Hollywood Yates] from NBC’s American Gladiators and Michael Ranallo from Fox’s Hotel Paradise.
