PEACHES CHRIST’S LOST CULT FILM, ‘ALL ABOUT EVIL’ TO BE RESURRECTED ON BLU-RAY AND SHUDDER IN JUNE
Peaches Christ’s campy gorefest, ALL ABOUT EVIL, starring Natasha Lyonne (“Russian Doll”, “Orange Is The New Black”), will rise from the dead this summer, in the form of a June 10 special edition Blu-ray release from Severin Films, and a North American streaming release on Shudder June 13th.
The blood-spattered indie horror originally premiered at the San Francisco International Film Festival with a limited theatrical run back in 2010, all but disappearing underground for years, before being resurrected this summer on Blu-ray and on Shudder.
To celebrate, Peaches Christ herself will present the film at "Peaches Christ 4-D Screenings" along the West Coast, including the Los Feliz 3 in Los Angeles on June 9, and the Victoria Theater in San Francisco on June 11, where the film was shot. Fans in Los Angeles can also attend a Blu-ray signing event at Dark Delicacies on June 12, with Peaches Christ and members of the cast.
ALL ABOUT EVIL tells the story of a mousy librarian (Lyonne) who takes over her late father’s struggling movie theater. However, when a series of grisly murders is caught on camera, she finds herself transformed into the new queen of indie splatter cinema.
In addition to Lyonne, the campy horror tale stars Thomas Dekker ("Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles", Kaboom), Cassandra Peterson (Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, Rob Zombie's The Munsters), John Waters muse Mink Stole (Serial Mom, Hairspray), and Noah Segan (Knives Out, Looper).
Of the film's long awaited resurrection, Peaches Christ shared, "For years, the movie has been unavailable and fans have been clamoring for it. As the creator, it's been frustrating to say the least. I feel like I've been given a great gift from both Severin and Shudder and am thrilled so many new people will discover my Evil little baby. The Blu-ray and features are truly stunning. I'm really proud of the film and am hoping the re-release helps get another feature film going!"
Peaches Christ has toured the globe, scaring and delighting audiences. For the past two years, Peaches has hosted Midnight Mass with Michael Varrati (Tales of Poe, "Dragula"), a podcast based on Peaches' long-running cult movie series in San Francisco. Every week, the pair go deep into discussions on the nature and fanbase of cult cinema, discussing everything from the works of Dario Argento to Rock N' Roll High School to Matilda.
The Blu-ray will feature a brand-new HD restoration of the feature, along with newly-produced and archival bonus features for fans to devour. Severin Films will release the Blu-ray on June 10th. Shudder will release the film on its service June 13th to subscribers in North America.
