Quiver Distribution has released the official trailer for the slasher movie That’s a Wrap. The film takes place at a wrap party for a horror movie when the fictional killer from the film suddenly shows up, targeting the actors involved. What’s really happening here? You’ll have to watch the film when it is released on Digital on Aug. 25, 2023. For now, you can get a sneak peek by checking out the new trailer below.
In the film, per the synopsis, “The cast of a film arrive to a wrap party, but someone has dressed up as the slasher in the film, and begins to stage their own kill scenes. One by one, the cast disappear until the true nature of the evening is revealed.”
That’s a Wrap is helmed by award winning director Marcel Walz (Blind, Pretty Boy), who co-wrote the screenplay with Joe Knetter and Robert L. Lucas. It is produced by Joe Knetter, Sarah French, and Marcel Walz. Executive producers include BJ Mezek, Andreas Tremmel, Justus Heinz, Yazid Benfeghoul, Tina Limbeck , Robert L. Lucas, and Kai E. Bogatzki.
The film stars Cerina Vincent (Cabin Fever), Monique T. Parent (Jurassic City), Sarah French (Space Wars: The Quest for Deepstar), Gigi Gustin (The Retaliators), and Dave Sheridan (The Devil’s Rejects).
That’s a Wrap Is Inspired by Scream and American Horror Story
“I’m so excited to have a colorful Giallo slasher as the first movie from our own production company, Neon Noir,” Walz says of That’s a Wrap in a statement. “Everyone involved in this project brought so much love and talent to the table and made the whole process from start to finish something special. I know the audience will see the love in the end product.”
He continued, “My favorite film of all time is Wes Craven’s Scream. That’s a Wrap is a fun meta slasher that showcases my love for that series of films combined with my love of Ryan Murphy’s American Horror Story. As a gay director I’m thrilled to have an opportunity to have LGBTQ characters represented in the film. One even plays a key part in a scene that will no doubt get people talking about how that kill is something they’ve never seen before. It’s so ridiculous. I love it.”
Co-writer Joe Knetter added, “Since this was the first project we fully produced as Neon Noir we knew we needed to put together the right team to bring it to life. I couldn’t be prouder of the people we got to play with. They are all stars in my book and contributed greatly to making this film something we can all be proud of, both personally and professionally.”
The movie is executive produced by Wolfpack Entertainment and Mezek Films. It was shot on location at Wolfpack Studios in Burbank, California.
