First Look At Bruce Campbell In New Horror Comedy "BLACK FRIDAY"

Film festivals are happening all over now and one we have our eyes on is Fantastic Fest. The festival is known for bringing world premiers for some of the most anticipated genre films of the year. One such premier we just learned about is for a horror comedy starring Bruce Campbell and Devon Sawa entitled “Black Friday” and we have your first looks at both.

In the film, “A ragtag group of toy store employees get more than they bargained for when Black Friday shoppers mutate into violent monsters.”

Here’s the full description from Fantastic Fest, which describes Black Friday as “the best commentary on the dark side of capitalism since Dawn of the Dead“…

“Everyone knows Black Friday is the worst day to work in retail. Something about a good deal turns even the sanest consumer into a wild animal. But the usual chaos and violence pales in comparison to what the employees of the “We Love Toys” store must face this time around.

“Devon Sawa stars as a down-on-his luck father in the midst of divorce, lamenting his job as a low-level toy store employee. He and the other rambunctious, overworked crew of staffers are prepared for a typically exhausting Black Friday full of shoppers hungry for a deal, but they could never have expected the shoppers to turn into blood-hungry maniacs with only one goal: Come together to feed and combine their powers into something full-on Lovecraftian.

“While Sawa continues his successful renaissance in the genre world with a refreshing turn as the cynical leader of the employees, it’s the inimitable Bruce Campbell who really surprises as the bumbling, uptight manager, Jonathan: a decidedly less heroic character than we’ve come to expect from him. Add in a healthy splash of outrageous gore and some ooey-gooey creature effects, and this is the soon-to-be-cult holiday horror movie you never knew you needed.”

Fantastic Fest is a taking place at the Alamo Drafthouse from September 20th to 30th in Austin Texas.
