Film production company Dual Visions has completed the
official artwork for the serial killer fever dream The Divine Tragedies.
The artwork shows a partially disguised character from the film. As well, this
horrifying crime thriller is loosely based on the Leopold and Loeb murder case,
in which two brothers murdered a young fourteen year old boy. This case shocked
citizens of Chicago in 1924. Now, director Jose Prendes (The
Haunting of Whaley House) is re-envisioning this case for a
new audience. And, fans of the crime genre can preview more from the film here.
The
official artwork shows a wounded young woman and rose petals. The blood reds
highlight the darker elements of the film. Also, the tagline promises murder:
“your death will be…beautiful.” But, who will be the first victim? Deep blues
also contrast the lighter colours, with a butterfly symbolizing transformation.
And, graphic artist Sasha Burrow and photographer Matt Shapira have designed
this artwork to show the bloody nature of the film. This film is both bloody
and strangely beautiful.
As an update, The Divine Tragedies has
completed filming. Brothers and producers James and Jon Kondelik are hoping to
release this title before audiences later this year as the film tours the film
festival circuit. Fans of horror will have a chance to see some of the most
famous faces in the genre on the big screen, including: Ken Foree (Dawn of
the Dead), Lynn Lowry (Cat People),
Barbara Crampton (You’re Next) and Sean Whalen (People
Under the Stairs). Fans will not have to wait long to see the film,
with a World Premiere set to be announced shortly. Also, a trailer will be
released soon and the clip will reveal more of the film’s haunting and tragic
story. More details on the film are just a few short weeks away.
The
official synopsis: The Divine Tragedies, based loosely on
the famous Leopold and Loeb murder case, tells the tale of Charles
Brubaker and his half-brother Thomas Lo Bianco, who concoct a deadly
game to test their superior intelligence against the dimwitted masses. This
game will eventually lead to murder. And when Genevieve, a beautiful
