Happy Halloween, mutants and maniacs! It’s October and that means Halloween is just around the corner. What better way to get the season started than with a brand spanking new indie horror trailer? I know what you’re thinking – it could be better if it was a slasher trailer. Well not only is it slashery but it’s Halloweenie too and that makes it perfect for this time of year! The creeps and madmen responsible for the Halloween tribute film, Judith, have recombined their creative DNA to form a Voltron of occult slasher terror in their full length original feature – HONEYSPIDER! Don’t take my word for it – check out the trailer for yourself!

JOIN THE FILMMAKERS FOR THIS HISTORIC HORROR PREMIERE!
HONEYSPIDER, a cult throwback horror feature film from indie filmmakers Josh Hasty and Kenny Caperton, will premiere on October 18th at the historic Gem Theatre in Kannapolis, North Carolina, where a portion of the film was shot. The theatre is hosting a horror night double feature also including George A Romero’s zombie classic ‘Night of the Living Dead’ from 1968. The film is also screening at a Drive-In in Henderson, NC with the original ‘House on Haunted Hill’ starring Vincent Price, as well as showing at the historic Murphy Theatre in Wilmington, OH with ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show.’
HONEYSPIDER takes place in 1989 on Halloween day and follows college student Jackie Blue as she slowly unravels, all while a mysterious stranger watches over her every move. Soon she finds herself helplessly trapped like prey in a spider’s web, and all she can do is try to survive the night!
HONEYSPIDER is written and produced by Kenny Caperton (owner of the infamous Myers House NC) and directed by Josh Hasty (‘A Mannequin in Static’) of Paramount Scope. The film stars Frank Aard (‘April Fool’s Day’ remake), Joan Schuermeyer (Mutantville’s “Scarecrow at Midnight”, ‘Zombieland’ and Rob Zombie’s ‘Halloween 2’), Rachel Jeffreys, Samantha Mills (‘Bombshell Bloodbath’) and newcomer Mariah Brown.
Billy Corgan of the iconic rock band The Smashing Pumpkins has generously given the filmmakers the rights to use one of his early SP tracks entitled “Honeyspider,” which inspired the name of the movie. The film will also feature music from legendary music producer and singer songwriter Gary S. Paxton, who arranged and produced the original Bobby (Boris) Pickett and the Crypt-Kickers “Monster Mash” album.
In addition to the double feature screenings, HONEYSPIDER will also be hitting the film festival circuit in search of distribution later this Fall.
