This Saturday, July 14th, Dark Sky Films and ArieScope Pictures will be distributing limited edition teaser posters for their upcoming horror sequel HATCHET 3 exclusively at San Diego Comic-Con. On-hand at SDCC to sign the posters will be writer/producer Adam Green, director BJ McDonnell, and cast members Kane Hodder, Zach Galligan, Caroline Williams, and Rileah Vanderbilt.
The teaser poster, featuring Kane Hodder as slasher icon Victor Crowley, offers fans their first look at producer Adam Green’s hotly-anticipated film.
The official HATCHET 3 signing will be held on Saturday, July 14th on the San Diego Comic-Con floor at area/table AA21 from 02:30 PM – 04:30 PM. Each fan who comes to the signing will receive a free limited edition poster, which will only be available at Comic-Con 2012. Fans can also catch Victor Crowley walking the convention floor throughout the day, and those who snap a picture of themselves with Crowley and tweet it (tagging @darkskyfilms), will be entered to win a Hatchet Army t-shirt and limited edition poster.
HATCHET 3 is a co-production of MPI/Dark Sky Films and Green’s Los Angeles-based ArieScope Pictures. The film marks cinematographer McDonnell’s directorial debut after having handled A and B camera operations on such features as Rob Zombie’s HALLOWEEN remake, Timur Bekmambetov’s ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER and Adam Green’s first two Hatchet films.
SYNOPSIS:
The story finds Danielle Harris hunting down the true secret to ending the voodoo curse that has left Crowley’s ghost terrorizing Honey Island Swamp for decades. Mears will play a brooding, pompous SWAT team leader who is sent in to contain the carnage strewn about the haunted swamp. Williams will play a fast-talking journalist who fancies herself an expert on the legend of supernatural stalker Crowley.

HALLOWEEN 4
“He had maimed 16 people to get to his sister. He was shot and incinerated, but still the entity that Dr. Sam Loomis (the legendary Donald Pleasence) calls “Evil on two legs” would not die. Tonight, Michael Myers has come home again…to kill! This time, Michael returns to Haddonfield for Jamie Lloyd (Danielle Harris) – the orphaned daughter of Laurie Strode – and her babysitter Rachel (Ellie Cornell). Can Loomis stop Michael before the unholy slaughter reaches his innocent young niece?”

“Michael Myers survived the mine explosion thought to have killed him. One year later, his traumatized young niece Jamie is horrified to discover she has a telepathic bond with her evil Uncle…and that Uncle Michael is on his way back to Haddonfield. But Dr. Loomis has a new plan to destroy The Boogey Man in his childhood home using Jamie as bait. With enhanced gore and effects, vengeance has never looked so gruesome!”

Over on her Official Blog, Danielle Harris (reprising her role as Marybeth in HATCHET 3, directed by BJ McDonnell) posted a few bloody behind the scenes photos, along with video from some Louisiana Morning show called Hollywood South. The film stars a who’s who of horror with Danielle Harris, Kane Hodder, Derek Mears (“Friday the 13th”), Caroline Williams (“The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2?), Sean Whalen (“The People Under the Stairs”), Diane Goldner (“The Collector”), Jason Trost (The FP), Zach Galligan (Gremlins) and Cody Blue Snider.
SYNOPSIS:
A search and recovery team heads into the haunted swamp to pick up the pieces as Marybeth learns the secret to ending the voodoo curse that has left Victor Crowley haunting and terrorizing Honey Island Swamp for decades.
Check for more bloody, behind the scenes, Danielle Harris goodness after the break!
BJ McDonnell has released the first gory behind the scenes photo from the set of HATCHET 3 on his facebook page. It’s no real shock to regular readers that, personally, I’m not the biggest fan of the HATCHET series thus far. The first film was…ok, but nothing special. The practical special effects were the star of that film. HATCHET 2, however, was godawful, with terrible story, acting, direction, special effects, and Danielle Harris’s weird, distracting eyebrow thing going on. I have low hopes for HATCHET 3, but who knows, I could be pleasantly surprised.
That being said, I realize a lot of you out there in gore land are big fans of the series, so I’ll continue to pass along news on the most recent film in the series as it develops. For now, feast your eyes on a bit of gutsy grue above.
