Hear Ye! Hear Ye; “Alleluia! The Devil’s Carnival” Unveils It’s 2015 Roadshow Stops

August 21, 2015 Ken Pierce Leave a comment

Hey there readers, it’s time for me to use my “Upcoming Tours” category for something a little bit different this time as it was just a little while ago that I received a press notice about the sequel for “The Devil’s Carnival” which was a short film that I attended a couple of years ago. The sequel is out and entitled “Alleluia! The Devil’s Carnival” and below you will find the colorful poster and the press release for the new films showcasing tour. I know I could have placed this in my “On Screen” area but since I currently only want one category per story this one made the most sense to me  I’ll return with some thoughts afterward, get thee reading.

The Press Release:
Hell ain’t got a prayer that could stop this tour: Alleluia! The Devil’s Carnival, the sequel to cult-sensation film The Devil’s Carnival, will be featured nightly on its special musical road show tour, stopping in 40 North American cities this summer and fall!

But before we discuss the tour, a bit about the film: Alleluia! The Devil’s Carnival features a thrilling cast full of top horror and classic mainstream film stars, in addition to some of today’s top musical talent in acting roles! Fantasized by the team of celebrated film director Darren Lynn Bousman (Saw II, III, and IV) and writer-actor Terrance Zdunich – who also collaborated on musical cult films Repo! The Genetic Opera (which The Hollywood Reporter embraces as “this generation’s Rocky Horror Picture Show”) and the original The Devil’s Carnival – Alleluia! The Devil’s Carnival stars Zdunich, in addition to actors Paul Sorvino (Goodfellas), David Hasselhoff (Baywatch, Knightrider, Dodgeball), Adam Pascal (RENT), Dayton Callie (Sons of Anarchy, Deadwood), Briana Evigan (Step Up Film Franchise), Barry Bostwick (Rocky Horror Picture Show) and many more. Additionally, chart topping musicians Emilie Autumn, Tech N9ne, Danny Worsnop (We Are Harlot, Ex-Asking Alexandria), Heidi Shepherd and Carla Harvey (Butcher Babies), Ogre (Skinny Puppy), and Jimmy Urine (Mindless Self Indulgence) and more grace the screen in this macabre masterpiece.

Behold! The Second Trailer For “Alleluia! The Devil’s Carnival” Is Here!

July 26, 2015 Ken Pierce Leave a comment

So it was late last year that I put up the first trailer for the soon to be hitting theaters presentation “Allelujah! The Devil’s Carnival” which is the sequel to “The Devil’s Carnival”. The short film was directed by Darren Lynn Bousemann and stars Paul Sorvino, Terrance Zdunich, Emilie Autumn, The Butcher Babies, Danny Worsnop and many more. Check out the clip below.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: There is a little more to absorb in this trailer which was cool but I am starting to worry about these since they are now looking like they divulge too much of the overall story and to me that takes away from the larger enjoyment of the film. As I stressed in the narrative that shared the first trailer from the film, I can say that this one picks up where its predecessor left off and that is awesome. I’ll use my quote again saying how the characters look cool and there is just enough macabre goings on that make me want to see it as soon as possible. Also if you still don’t really know how many of you know what I am talking about here I will keep it brief. The bottom line is that its a sort of creepified Aesop’s Fable with God and the Devil and a cast of characters unlike you have ever seen before. Trust me. The film is set to open up for a limited run in the coming months. I am hoping that its done like the time when I saw the first feature and has all sorts of special guests and goings on. Let me know what you thought of this trailer and if you have not yet seen the film there is a purchase link below for you to use.

The First Trailer For “Alleluiah! The Devil’s Carnival” Is Here!

November 6, 2014 Ken Pierce Leave a comment

I guess it’s been two years now since I attended the film screening for “The Devil’s Carnival” and this quirky musical presentation was quite interesting to be a part of. The short film was directed by Darren Lynn Bousman and starred Sean Patrick Flannery, Briana Evigan, Jessica Lowndes, Paul Sorvino, Emilie Autumn and Terrance Zdunich. It also featured Ivan Moody from Five Finger Death Punch and now at long last the first trailer for the films sequel has arrived. Since I love getting trailers onto the site for our audio visual club side, let’s take a look below shall we.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: This was a very cool trailer and since I have already witnessed the first feature can safely say that this one picks up where it left off and that is awesome. The characters look cool and there is just enough macabre goings on that make me want to see it as soon as possible. Since I don’t really know how many of you know what I am talking about here I will keep it brief. The bottom line is that its a sort of creepified Aesop’s Fable with God and the Devil and a cast of characters unlike you have ever seen before. Trust me. Of course I don’t think we shall be seeing this presented anywhere until sometime next year but you folks are a patient lot right? You’re not? Oh well, too bad about that because you have to wait anyway. Stay tuned to the website or our calendar for news about our own regional showings. You should be able to figure out what is happening near your town from those. Now back to the regularly scheduled Metal stuff. Tell me dear friends what do you think about the trailer for this feature? Let me know in the comments.

Win Tix To See Emilie Autumn in NYC (2/22/2013)

February 18, 2013 Ken Pierce 3 Comments

The Scoop: Emile Autumn is one of the most interesting performers that I have seen in years. Her shows are a little bit Broadway, a little bit cabaret and a whole lot of wow what are they going to do next up there. She also plays an amazing violin and offers up a super sexy presentation by Veronica Varlow. Her company of players are as unique as they come and her audience a bunch of stylishly dressed “Plague Rats”; The last tour she called upon the “Opheliac” in each of us and now she challenges you to “Fight Like A Girl” in honor of her latest album. It’s a show you don’t soon forget and that makes me happy to announce that thanks to the folks at Livenation, a couple of our readers will get to enjoy this grand presentation for free. Dig it.
