Mister Director Strikes in Punk Rock Slasher ‘Director’s Cut’ This Month

Inspired by ‘80s and ’90s horror as well as the predatory entertainment industry, Director’s Cut will be released on DVD and VOD on March 18 via Freestyle Digital Media.

A clip from the indie slasher can be viewed below, along with the trailer and poster art.

In the film, a Long Island punk band meets a mysterious director through social media who generously offers to shoot their first music video for free. Desperate for fame, they drive deep into the Pennsylvania woods in hopes of making a killer music video.

But after a long night of drinking with the gregarious director, the band wakes up to find a very different version of him on set. Egos and opinions clash, with the director unveiling a terrible anger and uncompromising need for total control.

As his professionalism breaks down, so does his sanity – with the unhinged director and his assistant turning the band members into the unwitting stars of his very own snuff film.

Louis Lombardi (“24,” “The Sopranos”) stars as the murderous psychopath known as Mister Director.

“I wrote Director’s Cut as a band drama and drove the characters into a deadly situation. This person they meet, Mister Director, represents the evil in the music business,” said writer-director Don Capria, who makes his feature debut on the project.

“Director’s Cut is cautionary tale to the youth of today to mind your surroundings and tread carefully when you are seeking fame and fortune – there are some dangerous people out there waiting for you, especially in the entertainment industry.”

Tyler Ivey, Danielle Kotch, Greg Poppa, Louis Rocky Bacigalupo, Brandy Ochoa, Haley Cassidy, Darrin Hickok, and Lucy Hart co-star.
