Going by this trailer, there will be plenty of fun to be had from Boys From County Hell. This looks like an enjoyable comedy-horror with gore galore from Bad Day For The Cut director Chris Baugh.
The plot sees a group of friends unlocking a vampire from its tomb in rural Ireland. An added touch is that the vampire, Abhartach, is said to have inspired Bram Stoker to write Dracula. What’s not to like about the sound of that?
Jack Rowan, Nigel O’Neill, Louisa Harland, Michael Hough and John Lynch star.
The synopsis:
Strange events unfold in Six Mile Hill – a sleepy Irish town that claims to have been traveled by the famed author Bram Stoker – when construction on a new road disrupts the alleged grave of Abhartach, a legendary Irish vampire said to have inspired Dracula. Deadly and sinister forces terrorize the work crew led by Francie Moffat and his son Eugene, a free-spirited young man who prefers pints to pickaxes, and they’re forced to fight to survive the night while exposing the true horror that resides in the town’s local myth.
Boys From County Hell will stream to Shudder on 22 April 2021 in the US and Canada and hit Ireland and the UK by Wildcard Distribution and Vertigo Releasing in the summer of 2021 – get ready!
