Son of legendary Horror Maestro GEORGE A. ROMERO,  G. CAMERON ROMERO’s second fright feature (runner up to the unreleased THE SCREENING) STAUNTON HILL will be receiving its feature release on DVD October 6th (along with the long awaited TRICK ‘R TREAT) from Anchor Bay Entertainment.  he story follows a group of hikers who unwittingly become involved with a backwoods family by the name of Staunton.  Obviously, because this is a horror flick, things go downhill like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.  I first talked about this film last July (Check it Out HERE).  But here’s some more details from our fiends over at FANGORIA:

Scripted by David Rountree (who also co-stars), STAUNTON HILL is set at the titular locale in the middle of a remote mountain area. A group of hikers arrive for a weekend jaunt and wind up on the Staunton family property—and needless to say, this twisted bunch doesn’t take kindly to trespassers, setting out to stalk and kill them. The junior Romero’s second fright feature after the as-yet unreleased THE SCREENING, STAUNTON HILL also toplines Kathy Lamkin (Tea Lady from the TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE remake and its prequel), Cristen Coppen, Kiko Ellsworth, Christine Carlo, Paula Rhodes, Charlie Bodin, B.J. Hendricks and THE FUNHOUSE’s Cooper Huckabee; the makeup FX were created by Kevin Kirkpatrick, Dustin Heald and Mike Rotella. No special features have been announced for the disc, which carries a retail price of $19.97.

Below is a little DVD art.  I’m actually looking forward to this release!

Romero’s House on Staunton Hill

Posted on 17th July 2008 by aaron in News - Tags: , , , , , , ,

G. Cameron Romero, son of legendary George A. Romero, has, of late, been following in his father’s devilish footsteps.  His newest feature, Staunton Hill, seems like it might be worth checking out.  The story follows a group of hikers who unwittingly become involved with a backwoods family by the name of Staunton.  Seems like it may be derivative somewhat of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but hell, what backwoods movie with a fucked up family isn’t these days?  Hopefully, being Romero’s son, G. Cameron Romero will be the new go-to guy for horror.  The trailer gives me hope.  I’m wondering if this flick will get theatrical distribution or go straight to dvd.  Let’s all hope we can see this one in a darkened theater.  Check out the trailer below.
