Kate Shenton’s ‘Egomaniac’ to be unleashed on VOD!
Award-winning indie hit Egomaniac, the second feature film by writer-director Kate Shenton (Screen International Rising Horror Star nominee), will be having it’s Video on Demand release – available to rent and buy on iTunes – on August 15th in the UK, USA and Canada.
Egomaniac had its world premiere at FrightFest 2016 and has a hugely successful theatrical run including screened at Philadelphia Unnamed Film Festival, Boston Horrorthon, IFC Horrorthon, Lund International Fantastic Film Festival, RIP Horror Festival LA, Unrestricted View Horror Festival, Overkill Film Festival, Dundead and Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival. The film has just finished its limited London theatrical run with its final screening being at the Prince Charles Cinema.
Based on Kate Shenton’s personal experiences, Egomaniac is a satirical dark comedy about independent filmmaking with a grizzly horror twist at the end. The film stars Nic Lamont and Adam Rhys- Davies as well as Laurence R Harvey (Human Centipede 2&3)
Catherine Sweeny is determined to make a zombie horror romantic comedy but everybody in the industry keeps telling her she needs to put a talking dog in the film. Desperate to make a dream project Catherine goes to any lengths to make a film but too much compromise can kill.
Egomaniac is also being developed into a morally charged, narrative-adventure mobile app game, made by Feature Games and to be released later in the year. The game will be available Android, iOS, PC & Mac.
