August
21, 2012 (Los Angeles, CA) - The long awaited trailer for Caesar and Otto's
Deadly XMas, the latest film by Dave Campfield, who Josh Pasnak of Video
Graveyard hails as "one of the more impressive talents to come out of the
indie scene in a while," has been released following the announcement of
it's selection as one of the seven feature films selected for Elvira's Horror
Hunt. The film will screen the weekend of September 7-9 in Indianapolis,
Indiana, at HorrorHound Weekend, one of the countries biggest horror, sci-fi,
and fantasy film conventions, with the Mistress of the Dark herself on hand to
award the contest winners, whose fate will be decided by a panel of horror
industry professionals.
Poking
fun at the 1980s wave of Christmas slasher films, Caesar and Otto's Deadly
XMas, directed by Dave Campfield and produced by Campfield, Rich Calderon, Joe
Randazzo, and Robin Ritter, is a horror parody the likes of which hasn't been
seen since the days of Abbott & Costello. Ain't It Cool News says that
"Like Abbott & Costello before them, Caesar and Otto bring genuine
humor to the horror genre." Titular brothers Caesar and Otto (Dave Campfield
and Paul Chomicki) find themselves employed at Xmas Enterprises Inc. where, a
disgruntled employee in a Santa suit (former CKY frontman Deron Miller) has
begun a killing spree. Now it looks like he's found himself the perfect
patsies.
Caesar
and Otto's Deadly XMas features a ensemble cast of some of the all time great B
movie stars including former CKY and current World Under Blood frontman Deron
Miller, "Sleepaway Camp" star Felissa Rose, Brinke Stevens, Joe
Estevez, Troma CEO Lloyd Kaufman, Debbie Rochon, and Linnea Quigley in a role
that lampoons her death scene in "Silent Night, Deadly Night." These
legends join a cast of up and coming talent such as Paul Chomicki, Ken
MacFarlane, Samantha Barrios, and Summer Ferguson, and youtube sensations
Lauren Francesca, and Shawn "Coolduder" Phillips, most recently seen
in The Asylum's "The Haunting of Whaley House."
The
film will also be screening at the Alamo Drafthouse in San Antonio, Texas on
Sunday, September 2 at 12:45pm as part of the Horrific Film Festival, where it
has received 4 nominations including Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best
Actor (Campfield), and Best Actress (Summer Ferguson).
