Monster Pictures Handles Dead Hooker In A Trunk Down Under!

MONSTER PICTURES; FANTASTIC PICTURES FOR PEOPLE WHO LIKE TO WATCH...

Monster Pictures is a Melbourne-based distribution / production company launching in August 2010 with Dutch director, Tom Six’s twisted biological horror, THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE.

Monster Pictures is dedicated to delivering the most energetic, unique, creative, innovative, provocative, bizarre, frightening, challenging, surreal, offbeat, absurd, twisted, demented, raunchy, cinema in the world today – the weirder, the wilder, the blacker, the sexier, the crazier, the dirtier, the funnier, the better.

Whilst Monster Pictures will leave no stone unturned in its quest to unleash the most interesting films on the planet to our audience, we are not JUST a distribution company.

From our offices in Melbourne Australia we are currently developing a slate of productions that will stay true to our promise of delivering exciting film projects, quality films that push boundaries, films that won’t easily be forgotten.

Monster Pictures is the distributor that is handling the Bounty Entertainment release of DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK in Australia and if you're an Australian local, you might have already heard about their pushing the envelope approach in entertainment and how fucking cool and refreshing it has been. They have got the balls to back the very provocative titles in its lineup. Provocative titles like Lucky McKee's THE WOMAN which they will be presenting the worldwide theatrical premiere of.


Fucking badass. I've been dying to see that flick. And they brought out THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE that has to be one of the most talked about indie horror in years with crazy cult status - if you don't believe me click here.

It is a fucking thrill to be associated with a company like this and we couldn't be happier with the Australian home that DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK has. Check the official Monster Pictures Dead Hooker Page here where you can also purchase the DVD. If you want an alternative artwork, super rad DVD and you have the region-free player to support it, hook yourself up!


A huge thank you to the team at Monster Pictures for taking such good care of our HOOKER! Careful around cops, they get weird about hookers in trunks. Check out their full lineup here! You won't be disappointed.

Subtitled Online Dot Com Talks With The Twins

Canadian sisters, Jen and Sylvia Soksa are making waves in the world of indie horror. With their debut, Dead Hooker In A Trunk, only just reaching its release on DVD in the UK, they are already working on their next project, American Mary. Luckily, the Soska Sisters were able to take some time out of production to talk to subtitledonline.com…

And the wonderful Dave O Butnu of subtitledonline.com was kind enough to take some time to talk to us. It was a very cool chat as we got to speak about the newly released DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK (it was released in the UK and Australia this past May 23rd by Bounty Films - world release is a'coming), the issues of duality that come from being an identical twin and how that is explored in our work, and all sorts of goodies. Here is a tasty morsel --

DOB: Have there been any issues with censors around the world, now that the movie is being released? Did Dead Hooker… get banned or cut anywhere?

Sylvia: We got extremely lucky with this film in the respect that we maintained creative control over the entire project without having to fight for our content. I'm actually surprised it didn't get more backlash. The only banning happened over the title without the film being watched, so I think people don't have a problem with the content. It got an 18+ rating, but it has extreme language, violence and full frontal male nudity, so that was expected.

Jen: The film is available in its entirety and I am so happy about it. I absolutely detest censorship. I feel that not only is it bulls**t to tell someone what they can or cannot watch and remove the opportunity for them to even decide for themselves, but it breeds ignorance. Just because you don't see something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. How are we ever supposed to deal with real horror in our lives? If someone is attacked and raped, they can't just cut to the next day. They have to be there. Art imitates life. When violence and horror disappear from reality, then it would be appropriate to remove those aspects from film.

If anyone under 18 is reading this, I'm sorry we couldn't lower our rating so you could grab a copy of DHIAT or see it. I hope you still find a way and I hope it inspires you to go out and make your own films. I sincerely mean that.

Still have a literary appetite and you're hankering for more? Click here for the full interview of rad. A huge humble thank you to Dave for taking the time to talk to us and for getting the word out there about us and our work! Thank you for reading, boys and girls.
