This looks like it might be a lot of fun, or kind of a car crash! There is certainly no denying the ambition on display - 26 separate short films from the likes of Ti West (House of the Devil), Jason Eisner (Hobo with a Shotgun), Nacho Vigalando (Timecrimes), Srdjan Spasojevic (A Serbian Film) and many more, and featuring a bizarre mix of straight up horror, sci-fi, comedy, even claymation. Have a look at the trailer for yourselves and see what you think, but be warned, it is most definitely NSFW..



Oh, and as a bonus here is one of the shorts - "T Is For Talk"..





Twenty-six directors. Twenty-six ways to die. The ABCs of Death is perhaps the most ambitious anthology film ever conceived with productions spanning fifteen countries and featuring segments directed by over two dozen of the world's leading talents in contemporary genre film. Inspired by children’s educational books, the motion picture is comprised of twenty-six individual chapters, each helmed by a different director assigned a letter of the alphabet. The directors were then given free reign in choosing a word to create a story involving death.


The ABCs Of Death will be available 31 January 2013 (Video On Demand), and then get a limited theater release March 8th.

WombRaider - 11/16/2012, 6:29 AM

Simonsonrules - 11/16/2012, 6:31 AM
This "film" is mostly garbage, but "F is for Fart" is one of the funniest parodies ever made.
Greengo - 11/16/2012, 6:40 AM
AHHHHHHHH!!!! The horror!!! The hoorrrroorrrr!!!

I swear one more Fisher Price commercial and my face will eyeballs will melt out of my head.

Mmmmmmmkay......

Where is the comic book connection?
RorMachine - 11/16/2012, 7:03 AM
There is no direct comic book connection, aside from it having zombies (Walking Dead) and animation, and various sci-fi stuff that we cover. But it's a dead news day and a weekend, and we cover horror from tiem to time as I'm SURE you've noticed..



;)
Godzillafart - 11/16/2012, 7:19 AM
Wow. That doesn't even look fun bad, just bad.
Godzillafart - 11/16/2012, 7:20 AM
@Greengo: Ha! My friend, we have finally found something we agree upon with 100% passion.
maxxgone - 11/16/2012, 7:21 AM
this is filmmaking?
jessepostal - 11/16/2012, 7:29 AM
I think it looks fun! I hope p is for poop :)
BruceWayneNewton - 11/16/2012, 8:07 AM
you need more than fat people, masks, babies, and chainsaws to creep me out. Looks like a bunch of nonsense to me.
DarthBob - 11/16/2012, 8:40 AM
The fact that sh!t like this gets green lit and people would actually pay money to see this and find it entertaining just goes to show how depraved our society has become. Hey, let's throw some t!ts, gore, torture and mutilation together, skip the plot, and the mindless sheeple will pay to see it, rent it and buy it on DVD all in the name of fun.
IIIAdamantiumIII - 11/16/2012, 8:41 AM
looks like a wonderful family film!
Greengo - 11/16/2012, 8:41 AM
oops [frick]ed that sentence all up ah well you get the point

@GF: lol ; )
Greengo - 11/16/2012, 9:10 AM
@DarthBob: How dare you talk about Ror like that?

>: )
Parker2017 - 11/16/2012, 9:11 AM
T is for Talk was interesting felt like everyone's opinions of Saw was compressed into that samll film.

@bossWalsh yep, if you live in the make believe country of wales :3
jessepostal - 11/16/2012, 9:25 AM
@darthbob, you seem like a fun guy :) mindless entertainment isn't for everyone, not every movie has to have a plot, and stories don't always have to be serious my friend. This isn't new, exploitation and sexploitation films have been around since ww2 and most likely even before that.
DemonicJoker666 - 11/16/2012, 9:29 AM
this looks cooooooooooolllll
msullivan1945 - 11/16/2012, 9:30 AM
It is a pretty stupid premise for a movie. With no build up or resolution to each letter, what's the point? Horror movies are just turning to gore because the bar has been lowered by the new generation. There is no longer a build up or complexity because the audience has degenerated into an uneducated mass of drones. This movie the horror equivalent of a Michael Bay action movie...retarded.
UltimaRex - 11/16/2012, 9:54 AM
So that's what happened to Raymond K. Hessel...
DividedIStand80 - 11/16/2012, 10:01 AM
Where do I buy the comic?
NorrinRaddical - 11/16/2012, 10:19 AM
awesome. LOVE compilations, this is a fun chance to see if people can tell a good story in 10 minutes or less.
AIGALAN - 11/16/2012, 10:30 AM
Seem like a fun super dumb movie to simply just enjoy for the surprises and how over the top it can go. Glad it has an honest trailer. Reminds me of what Cabin In the Woods really was, even though they sold it as straight horror and ended up being a goofy comedy.
Gus - 11/16/2012, 10:32 AM
T is for Tits.
ellispart3 - 11/16/2012, 12:02 PM
@darthbob hahaha where have you been dude? people have been depraved and have paid for t!ts, gore, torture and mutilation for ages.
to each his or her own, but this isn't my cup of tea.
HachibiTheMC - 11/16/2012, 12:14 PM
to paraphrase Consuela from Family Guy,

"Nooo. No. Noooo."
