Following last year's release of their original film Fender Bender, Shout! Factory now has more new content on the way, as they have acquired global rights to a new, untitled horror film from Kevin Shulman, with a cast that includes Bill Moseley and William Forsythe.
Press Release: Los Angeles, Calif., March 21, 2017 – Shout! Factory, a multi-platform media company, has acquired worldwide rights to writer/director Kevin Shulman’s new feature film, Untitled Shulman Horror Project, starring Eoin Macken (Resident Evil: The Final Chapter, NBC’s The Night Shift), Kristina Klebe (Dementia, Proxy, Halloween), Bill Moseley (House of 1000 Corpses, The Devil’s Rejects), Faran Tahir (Iron Man, Star Trek, Escape Plan) and William Forsythe (The Rock, The Bronx Bull, Raising Arizona). The film is developed, produced and co-financed by Jeremy M. Rosen and Kevin Shulman for Roxwell Films, and co-financed and executive produced by Shout! Factory for its horror genre entertainment imprint, Scream Factory Films. This announcement was made today by Shout! Factory’s founders, Richard Foos, Bob Emmer and Garson Foos.
Kevin Shulman directs the film from a screenplay that he co-wrote with his brother, Nathaniel Shulman. Jeremy M. Rosen and Kevin Shulman are producing under their Roxwell Films banner. Executive producers are Richard Foos, Bob Emmer, Garson Foos, Jordan Fields, Gus Krieger, Scott Adler and Gary Lawrence. Co-Executive Producer is Kristina Klebe.

“Jeremy and Kevin brought us an utterly unique, edgy and terrifying script as well as an exciting cast. We’re eager to help them realize their twisted vision and share it with soon-to-need-therapy fans worldwide,” said Jordan Fields, Shout’s Vice President of Acquisitions and Film Development.
As Kevin Shulman puts it, "Visceral horror coupled with political commentary elevates the genre. In this day and age, there is nothing scarier than terrorism and the news."
