Earlier this month we got our first look at the poster for Josh Forbes’ forthcoming horror comedy, Destroy All Neighbors (which, by the way, you can read more about via an exclusive set report in the latest issue of FANGORIA Magazine), and you only had to take one glance at that thing to know that Forbes’ film was gonna be a wild one.
Today brings us the first Destroy All Neighbors trailer, and – if anything – we may have underestimated just how wild this movie’s gonna be. Let’s take a look…
Yup, that looks like a helluva lot of fun: Alex Winter buried under prosthetics, an accidental decapitation, reanimated corpses, Jonah Ray Rodrigues using power tools to dispose of a body, and plenty – and we do mean plenty – of splatter. Consider us sold, Josh Forbes!
Here’s an official plot synopsis, should you require one:
“William Brown (Jonah Ray Rodrigues), a neurotic, self-absorbed musician determined to finish his prog-rock magnum opus, faces a creative roadblock in the form of a noisy and grotesque neighbor named Vlad (Alex Winter). Finally working up the nerve to demand that Vlad keep it down, William inadvertently decapitates him. But, while attempting to cover up one murder, William’s accidental reign of terror causes victims to pile up and become undead corpses who torment and create more bloody detours on his road to prog-rock Valhalla. DESTROY ALL NEIGHBORS is a twisted splatter-comedy about a deranged journey of self-discovery full of goopy practical FX, a well-known ensemble cast, and LOTS of blood.”
In addition to Winter and Rodrigues, Destroy All Neighbors also features Kiran Deol, Christian Calloway, Randee Heller, DeMorge Brown, Jon Daly, Phil Hendrie, Ryan Kattner, and the great Thomas Lennon (All of them are working from a screenplay by Charles Pieper and Jared Logan, by the way).
According to the press release we received alongside today’s trailer, Destroy All Neighbors will hit Shudder on January 12th. Do stay tuned between now and then for any further updates, should they arrive!
