The trailer which you are about to see is an account of the tragedy which befell a group of youths. For them, an idyllic summer afternoon drive became a nightmare in Brute 1976.
Drawing inspiration for ’70s horror classics The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes, the indie film will be released digitally on August 26 via Cinephobia Releasing.
Set in August 1976, Raquel and her girlfriend have car trouble and break down on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere. At the same time, a group of people are in the desert for a photoshoot. Soon, they stumble upon an abandoned town where a family of masked psychopaths reside.
Marcel Walz (Blood Feast, Blind) directs from a script by frequent collaborator Joe Knetter (Blind, Twilight of the Dead). Neon Noir produces.
Adriane McLean, Sarah French (Blind), Gigi Gustin (The Retaliators), Adam Bucci (“Halt and Catch Fire”), Mark Justice, Robert Felsted Jr., Ben Kaplan, Dazelle Yvette, Bishop Ali Stevens, Jed Rowen (Blind), Alex Dundas, and Andreas Robens star.
A sequel titled Brute 1986 is currently in post-production.
