“All I want… is for you to be proud of me.” Dread has revealed an official trailer for an indie horror thriller film titled Ed Kemper, a story about the serial killer named Ed Kemper, Jr. This is set for release in April in a few theaters and on VOD if anyone is interested. The only thing that sells now is true crime and murder mysteries! This is the chilling true story of Ed Kemper, a manipulative serial killer whose charm hid a dark obsession with murder, revenge, and his tormented past. Based on actual events surrounding the American serial killer Edmund Kemper, who murdered his grandparents at age 15 and, after being paroled for that crime, then killed eight women in 1972 and 1973 including his own mother. Scary. Also known as the “Co-ed killer”, don’t confuse Kemper with Ed Gein (who inspired Hitchcock’s Psycho) this is a different guy. Writer Stephen Johnston explains: “I originally envisioned Ed Kemper as having a sort of punk rock horror energy, and seeing that realized by Chad Ferrin’s sure-handed direction, deft performances from the cast, and the hard work of a great crew… has truly been magical. Sure, it’s a disturbing sort of magical, but that’s the best kind.” Ed Kemper features Lew Temple, Cassandra Gava, Robert Miano, Brinke Stevens, Susan Priver, and Brandon Kirk. This looks like a really bad student film – don’t waste any of your time on this. // Continue Reading ›
