The Midnight Meat Train (2008) Posters, Synopsis, Trailer, Raw Photos, Raw Review

FULL SYNOPSIS (Warning! This synopsis contains spoilers)

The film opens as a well dressed, barrel chested man stalks the late-night passengers of a subway train. He assaults and kills several people with a meat hammer, and a butcher’s hook. He dispatches his prey wordlessly, and with an uncannily unnatural strength. He wears a ring on his finger, adorned with eight stars.

We are then introduced to Leon, a vegan photographer who heads into the city’s subway system at night to take photographs. He is criticized constantly by other photographers for fleeing danger before shooting a full reel. One night, in a decision to break this trend, he saves a woman from a gang that is abusing her. The next day, he discovers this girl has gone missing. Leon is intrigued by the mystery, and begins to investigate newsreels about similar disappearances. His investigation leads him to a butcher named Mahogany, who he suspects has been killing subway passengers for as long as a hundred years.

Leon attempts to turn some of the photos he has taken of Mahogany in to the police, but they refuse to believe him, and instead cast suspicion on his own motives in photographing the victims. Leon’s involvement quickly turns into a dark obsession, upsetting his waitress girlfriend Maya, who is as disbelieving of his story as the police chief. Leon takes matters into his own hands, entering the subway train at midnight, only to witness a shocking bloodbath, as the butcher kills several passengers, then hangs them on meat hooks.

Walking Distance (2009) Poster, Synopsis, Trailer, Behind The Scenes - Upcoming Horror Movie

SYNOPSIS

A idyllic, small, self-sufficient community. On the surface, it seems like the perfect neighborhood. Everything you could possibly need is within Walking Distance. But…the pastoral exterior conceals a dark past and an even darker secret.

As a group of individuals - each with their own ties and agendas with the town and each other - converges on the enclave, strange things begin to happen. Very strange things. Strange enough to test (and then break) the very fabric of reality itself.

Everyone wants a homecoming, but in this case you really can’t ever go home again. No matter how hard you try, you can’t escape your past, and you can’t outrun yourself. Both are always within Walking Distance.

SYNOPSIS / SUMMARY

As an extravagant party unfolds on the top floor of an abandoned towering skyscraper, five different guests receive a mysterious text message inviting them to join an exclusive VIP party being held on the 27th floor of the same building.  Once there, the five adventurous party-goers and two partycrashers discover the same odd image…an empty room decorated with a children’s party theme…complete with cupcakes, place settings and name tags written out for each of them: “Pig”, “Loser”, “Two-Faced”, “Heartless”, “Loverboy”.

Confused, the group of strangers introduce themselves by their real names before attempting to head back upstairs: One guest who needs no introduction is KATHY KING, the host of a very successful TV cooking show.  When the elevator fails to arrive, Kathy and the group try the stairwell…only to find it locked. They are stranded, cut-off from the party above and the exit below. They have been purposely lured and trapped on to this floor, but why? Their only clue lies in a note found beneath the cupcakes; “This little piggy found silver, this little piggy found gold, this little piggy ate my cake, this little piggy had none and this little piggy cried wee, wee, wee all the way to room 2721.”

The group curiously makes their way to room 2721 and are shocked to find a rotting pig’s head waiting for them. Violently stuck onto a spike and dripping blood on the floor, the pig holds another clue in its mouth. The group reluctantly decides to keep following the clues, hoping their situation will improve…but it only gets worse. Read more …
