Exploitation
throwback delivers a violent, bloody trip in 9 episodes
St.
Louis, MO / September 10, 2014 – If you’re a fan of exploitation films, then
you’ll want to take a wild ride with “Ronnie Terminus,” “Dahlia Frankenstein”
and “Rhett Darling” in The Killers Resolute. This nine episode web-series follows a trio of
cold-blooded killers on their twisted journey doing what they want, when they
want…which turns out to be a violent, bloody mess.
A
throwback to great 70s films like Dirty Mary Crazy Larry (and the
more recent Pulp Fiction), The Killers Resolute takes a dark
path down the human psyche while providing an indictment of modern living in
the age of media hypocrisy. Writer/director Chris Grega was drawn
to this project as a statement on our modern media-driven world, and the blatant
falseness he feels it's all built upon. From “Do Not Attempt” labeled
advertising propaganda to the false airs of television reporters he explains
“This project grew out of a desire to show the darker side of humanity that's
really just outside of the light, possibly only by a few inches or a few
moments in time. I settled on the web series format because above all
else, it's something new and refreshingly simple.”
A
cast of notable St. Louis actors bring these delightfully deviant characters to
life against a beautifully shot Midwest backdrop. With each episode
running 3-5 minutes, watching the entire series will take approximately 30
minutes. Released out of sequence, viewers will also have the option to
watch in order. "The Killers Resolute bleeds off the screen so
smoothly that you forget how fast this story is moving and you are left quickly
left in the lurch wanting more. Well written and cast and wonderfully lit and
edited, Killers stands out in a crowd of independent horror where there certainly
is a love and passion for the art, but often little technical skill." –
