The hunted fight their hunters in new shots from Rob Zombie’s 31

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Everything is starting to fall into place for writer/director Rob Zombie's 31. Although we still don't know when distributor Alchemy plans to release the film, it has secured its R rating, gotten a new poster, and it's just days away from screening at the Sundance Film Festival. 

While he prepares to show 31 to its Sundance audience, and while we wait to hear what sort of reactions come out of that screening, Zombie is continuing to share promotional images from the film and behind-the-scenes shots from the set, like the one above of the actors in their chairs, with his followers on social media.

The story of 31 centers on 

five carnival workers who are kidnapped the night before Halloween and held hostage in a large secret compound known as Murder World. Once there, they have 12 hours to survive a terrifying game called 31 in which “The Heads” – murderous maniacs dressed as clowns – are released to hunt them down and kill them.

The two most recent images Zombie has shared from the film show two of the carnival workers, Sheri Moon Zombie and Jeff Daniel Phillips, defending themselves from two of the Heads, Pancho Moler as Sick-Head and Lew Temple as Psycho-Head.

In addition to the actors featured in the Head pictures, the 31 cast includes Richard Brake, Malcolm McDowell, Meg Foster, Judy Geeson, Kevin Jackson, Jane Carr, Ginger Lynn, Daniel Roebuck, Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs, Tracy Walter, E.G. Daily, Torsten Voges, David Ury, Bari Suzuki, and Devin Sidell.

Now, where's the trailer?
