The Collective and Bloody Disgusting announced today that Argentine horror film "Phase 7" will be released in AMC Theaters on July 13th, as apart of the Bloody Disgusting Selects series.

Press Release:

The theatrical release of Argentine apocalyptic horror film PHASE 7. Directed and written by Nicolás Goldbart; produced by Sebastian Aloi; executive produced by Steven Schneider (Insidious, Paranormal Activity); starring Daniel Hendler (LOST EMBRACE); Jazmín Stuart (THE PARANOIDS); Yayo Guridi (LOS RODRIGUEZ); and Federico Luppi (PAN’S LABYRINTH) View the official trailer at http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/selects/releases/phase7/.

PHASE 7 (FASE 7) premiered at the SXSW Film Festival in March, and also screened at the Boston Underground Film Festival and the Amsterdam Fantastic Film Festival. Before its theatrical release, it will screen at the Fantasia International Film Festival in Montreal (the largest genre festival in North America) and the Danger After Dark Festival in Philadelphia—both in early July.

PHASE 7 mixes satire, humor, horror and social commentary in a way that reminds viewers of the arch SHAUN OF THE DEAD and the savvy claustrophobia of [rec]. In the film, Coco (Hendler) has just moved to a new apartment with his wife Pipi (Stuart), who’s seven months pregnant. At first, they don’t seem to notice the growing chaos around them, but when authorities quarantine their building after a deadly pandemic breaks out, Coco joins forces with his off-kilter, but well-prepared and stocked next-door neighbor Horacio to defend his refrigerator and keep Pipi safe. Meanwhile, outside the building, Buenos Aires—and the world as the apartment denizens know it, is disappearing. The world is ending; got ammo?

Opens Theatrically Wednesday, July 13th, 2011 at AMC Theaters. Please visit BloodyDisgustingSelects.com for tickets and show times or check local listings.
