As we jump into 'Part TWO' of this week's @EchoChamberFP we gotta give a BIG thanks to Kelli McNeil-Yellen for putting it all together!!!
We're taking a look at a new horror film, which is actually an anthology of three stories that are framed by a sobriety meeting. Because as one of the films writers says, what is more terrifying than truthful horror of poor decisions and the stark reality of addiction! THEN, we sit down with said writer / producer, to discuss the nuances of bringing this story to life. The reaction it has gotten in some parts of the world, and the disparity and double standards around fame & nudity! Definitely a chat you don't want to miss!!!
'Slice' is directed by Dylan M Shell, Nick Iway, Dustin Mills & Austin Shell, and written by Chet Turner, and co-written by Iway, Mills & A Shell. A horror anthology featuring three disturbing stories that explore human nature, masculinity, fame, and addiction. A shocking revelation at a sobriety meeting sets the stage for a series of macabre tales about men willing to give up their manhood for fame or drugs. Banned in Canada, SLICE is an unsettling art-house horror experience.
