There are many ways to die—peaceful, painful, and otherwise—and when it was given a wide release in 2013, Magnet Releasing’s The ABCs of Death showed us 26 of them. Soon ABCs of Death 2 will display 26 more paths to perishing, each one starting with a different letter of the alphabet, and the film's red band trailer shows that someone's violent end could come from an action figure playset.
Those looking to watch a new horror anthology film this Halloween season are in luck, as ABCs of Death 2 hits VOD platforms on October 2nd before coming out in select theaters on October 31st. ABCs of Death 2 will make its world premiere at Austin’s Fantastic Fest this September.
“ABC’s OF DEATH 2 is the follow-up to the most ambitious anthology film ever conceived with productions spanning from Nigeria to UK to Brazil and everywhere in between. It features segments directed by over two dozen of the world’s leading talents in contemporary genre film. The film is comprised of twenty-six individual chapters, each helmed by a different director assigned a letter of the alphabet. The directors were then given free rein in choosing a word to create a story involving death. Provocative, shocking, funny and at times confrontational, ABC’s OF DEATH 2 is another global celebration of next generation genre filmmaking.”
