Anchor Bay to Teach the 'Alphabet'!
Don’t know the story of the Alphabet Killer? Well, like every real-life murder spree, this chilling tale has been turned into an implausible thriller pushing the production values of a Dean Cain-starring Lifetime flick. Hooray! And guess what else? Anchor Bay has acquired the film for a January 2009 DVD release, so now you can bring the gruesome magic home. Why watch Unsolved Mysteries on the History Channel all day when you can watch hottie Eliza Dushku get stalked by a faceless psychopath? C’mon, this one’s a no-brainer. Here’s the release info…
From director Rob Schmidt (Wrong Turn, Masters of Horror) and featuring an “all-star” cast including Eliza Dushku (Bring It On, Wrong Turn), Cary Elwes (The Princess Bride, Saw), and Oscar-winner Timothy Hutton (Ordinary People, Sunshine State), The Alphabet Killer is a gripping psychological thriller loosely based on the still-unsolved “double initial” murders that shocked the citizens of Rochester, New York in the early 1970s. Exclusive theatrical engagements in Los Angeles, New York and Rochester, NY – the city that inspired the film – in early November are planned, with a subsequent DVD release for January 2009. In addition, the DVD promises extensive bonus features, including audio commentaries, behind-the-scenes footage, cast & crew interviews and more.
...So just in case you lost all hope, there’s all that to look forward to.
