Y’all like your show-tunes with ghastly possession?
Perhaps taking a page out of Bousman’s REPO: THE GENETIC OPERA or any rendition of SWEENY TODD, it looks like you’ll get a chance to see just that in a new horror-musical from writer/director Travis Betz. The picture’s called THE DEAD INSIDE, and may even only star two actors. Sounds intriguing if nothing else, so let’s cut right to the down to the twisted backbone of this bastard…
Starring Sarah Lassez and Dustin Fasching – THE DEAD INSIDE goes like this:
Wes and Fi are empty. While their love for each other burns strong, artistically their hearts have been locked in a box for years. Wes is a burned out photographer paying the bills by shooting weddings. Fi is the writer’s-blocked author of a series of zombie novellas called, The Dead Survive. At one time they were at the top of their creative game, but recently their muse has packed its’ bags and vanished without leaving a note.
When Fi begins to show signs of schizophrenia, Wes does everything in his power to help her get better. Strange behaviors and breathing patterns escalate, and It is soon discovered that darker forces lurk inside her. The doctors prove useless and even the church can offer no comfort. The true horror of the situation steals Fi’s voice and reveals itself to Wes. Afraid and completely lost, Wes has no choice to imprison his girlfriend until he can figure out what to do with this familiar looking person he doesn’t know…
