"Epic Pictures and DREAD are excited to release the key art, the trailer, and the pre-order link for the monster-driven, audience-chosen, horror film, BOOK OF MONSTERS, releasing on March 19, 2019!
BOOK OF MONSTERS began life as a Kickstarter campaign back in 2017 with a unique twist - backers could vote on six key elements of the movie including what form the monsters would take and how they killed their victims! The result is a fun horror movie with buckets of gore and creepy monsters which have been brought to life with old-school practical effects and the participation of the audience.
"The love and support we have received from the horror community to get this film made was absolutely inspiring and since it premiered at FrightFest last year, we've been incredibly lucky to see the film play at horror festivals around the world," said the director, Stewart Sparke. "I've got to extend a huge thank you to all of our amazing Kickstarter backers for making the film possible in the first place and now to Dread for bringing the film to a much wider audience!"
After a successful run at genre film festivals last year, BOOK OF MONSTERS picked up 7 awards including "Best Film" and "Best Special FX" at the New York City Horror Film Festival.
Synopsis: Sophie's 18th birthday becomes a bloodbath when monsters descend upon her house and start to devour the party guests. Sophie and her friends must rally together to send their party crashers back to hell.
BOOK OF MONSTERS is directed by Stewart Sparke (The Creature Below), written by Paul Butler (The Creature Below), and starring Nicholas Vince (Hellraiser), Lyndsey Craine, Lizzie Aaryn-Stanton, and Michaela Longden."
Tamika hails from North Beach, Maryland, a tiny town inches from the Chesapeake Bay.She knew she wanted to be an actor after reciting a soliloquy by Sojourner Truth in front of her entire fifth grade class. Since then, she's appeared in over 20 film and television projects. In addition to acting, Tamika is the Indie Spotlight manager for Daily Dead, where she brings readers news on independent horror projects every weekend.
The first horror film Tamika watched was Child's Play. Being eight years old at the time, she remembers being so scared when Chucky came to life that she projectile vomited. It's tough for her to choose only one movie as her favorite horror film, so she picked two: Nosferatu and The Stepford Wives (1975).
