One of our most anticipated releases in the second half of the year is Bruce McDonald’s HELLIONS, a Halloween-set creepfest starring Robert Patrick and Chloe Rose. A few months ago we brought you the trailer (which I’ve conveniently embedded below), but we didn’t yet have a release date to go along with it. Now we can rectify that.

IFC Midnight has dated HELLIONS for a September 18th VOD debut; it will also open in select theaters. Yep, it’s getting the jump on October, but as many of us true horror fans will already be celebrating Halloween, this comes as perfect timing.

Strange trick-or-treaters plague conflicted teenager Dora Vogel (Chloe Rose) at her isolated home on Halloween. Under siege by forces she can’t understand, Dora must defend both body and soul from relentless Hellions, dead-set on possessing something Dora will not give them. Set in a visually haunting landscape, Hellions redefines the boundaries of horror with its potent brew of Halloween iconography, teenage angst and desperate survival.
