Residue: Supernatural horror film with all-star cult movie cast will hit VOD and iTunes on July 18th
When it comes to horror and pulp cinema, sometimes the grottier the film is the better and writer/director Rusty Nixon’s rough and tumble little shocker Residue looks about as dirty and downmarket as they come. And in respect to the genre, that’s a very good thing. The film stars James Clayton, Taylor Hickson (Deadpool), Costas Mandylor (the Saw sequels), Matt Frewer (Max Headroom, Dawn of the Dead) and William B. Davis (The X-Files) in a greasy, bloody noir thriller that combines the hard-boiled scribblings of Raymond Chandler with the satanic antics of The Exorcist.
Synopsis: Private investigator Luke Harding (James Clayton) reads a book of sinister origins owned by seedy crime lord Mr. Fairweather (Matt Frewer). Unbeknownst to Luke, the book is a much sought-after supernatural artifact and Fairweather’s greatest rival, the enigmatic Mr. Lamont (William B. Davis), pursues Luke with his henchmen (Costas Mandylor, Michael Matic). While the criminal underworld is desperate to retrieve the book and harness its power for their own dark agendas, it’s evil begins to take root in Luke’s apartment; putting himself, his daughter (Taylor Hickson) and his secret love (Elysia Rotaru) in a fight for their lives… and their eternal souls.
