Press Release:

Scorpio Film Releasing, the RhodeIsland-based production company behind such genre hits as NUN OF THAT and the upcoming THE DISCO EXORCIST, have done it again, wrapping production last week on their 12th feature film production MURDER UNIVERSITY. An homage to the slasher films of the 80's, MURDER UNIVERSITY is the production company's most violent and gory film to date and stars Jamie Dufault, Michael Thurber, and Samantha Acampora.

Director Richard Griffin says "Murder University, which marks Scorpio Film Releasing's 12th feature, is nothing but pure entertainment. Extreme graphic violence, action, sex, nudity, comedy, a musical number... hell, anything and everything we could throw at the audience, we did! The performances are top-notch, and the movie has a scope that most low budget films could only dream of. It's a great testament to my amazingly hardworking crew and my tireless producers Ted Marr & Kristin Kayala."

Acclaimed playwright turned screenwriter Lenny Schwartz adds "It's been an honor and a privilege to work with this cast, crew, producers and director on the film. It certainly is the bloodiest thing I have ever written and it is filled with things I have never done in the theater: blood, sex, extreme violence and nudity. And that positively fills me with glee."

Actor Jamie Dufault says "I've spent nearly every weekend for the past two and a half months engaging in general debauchery with this wonderful cast and crew, and I've loved every second of it. It's an experience I won't soon forget."

Actress Samantha Acampora explains "Murder University was an amazing experience for me. We started filming soon after I returned from a year living in LA, and it was great having this to come home to. I love Lenny's writing, and the crew was so professional and fun to work with. I was really sad to wrap... Richard is a wonderful director, and I got to work with such talented actors like Jamie Dufault and Michael Thurber. I can't wait to see how the whole thing turns out!"

Murder University also stars Sean Sullivan, Rich Tretheway, Nat Sylva, Lee Rush, Nick Apostolides, Christopher Ferreira, Kevin Killavey and Daniel Lee White.

MURDER UNIVERSITY will premiere in late July of 2012, stay tuned for more info on screenings and the upcoming trailer for the film.

Future productions for Scorpio Film Releasing include the upcoming web series PLANET OF THE GORILLA SUIT, a loving homage to the cliffhanger serials of the 30s, 40s and 50s written by Guy Benoit, the dark psychological drama NORMAL, written by Lenny Schwartz, and in early 2013 will be the sequel to THE DISCO EXORCIST titled THE BROTHER OF
THE DISCO EXORCIST, written by Tony Nunes.

Synopsis: A series of brutal, cult-like murders are taking place at a New England college. Josh Greene, a shy freshman, is the lone survivor of a series of murders that are reminiscent of a similar string of killings some twenty years prior. As he seeks to uncover the secret behind the attacks, he is joined by Detective Forrester, who was instrumental in halting the bloodshed before, and his daughter Meg, who had barely escaped being a victim previously.
