Press Release:

From horror greats like Sam Raimi and Wes Craven, to masters of cinema like Peter Jackson and even Steven Spielberg; horror has always been a popular genre among first time filmmakers. These filmmakers (Eric England, Daniel F. Dunn & Ace Marrero) are no exception, which is why Image Entertainment proudly presents Madison County on DVD and digital download on May 8th . The filmmaking team (whose next feature, Roadside, is in post-production slated for a 2012 release) premiered the film at last year’s prestigious ScreamFest— the only film to sell out during the festival! -- and already abuzz with anticipation among genre fans, Madison County promises an excursion into rural terror that pays homage to the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Town That Dreaded Sundown. SRP is $27.97 for the DVD, with pre-book on April 10th.

Directed and written by Eric England, the film stars Ace Marrero, Colley Bailey, Matt Mercer, Joanna Sotomura, Natalie Scheetz, Katie Stegeman, and Adrienne Harrell, with Laid To Rest’s Nick “ChromeSkull” Principe as the savage killer Damien Ewell. Special make-up and prosthetic effects are from the award-winning makeup effects wizards at Almost Human (Laid to Rest I & II, Quarantine, “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles”).

In the film – inspired by true events -- a group of college kids travel to a small, mountain town called Madison County to interview the author of a tell-all book on the accounts of several grisly murders that happened there. But when the kids get to Madison County, the author is nowhere to be found and the townspeople act like they haven't seen him in years, stating that the killer never existed and the murders never happened. However, when the kids start digging around to get their own answers, they find out that the stories may be more real than the townspeople are letting on.

Foreign Sales are represented by James Fler for Raven Banner Entertainment. For more information about the film, check out www.madisoncountymovie.com or follow @MadisonCoFilm.
