Want to know what Don Coscarelli’s John Dies at the End will be rated?

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

According to the official Facebook page of distributor Magnet Releasing, Don Coscarelli’s trippy JOHN DIES AT THE END will be rated R, for “bloody violence and gore, nudity, language and drug content.” Not bad, sounds like a typical weekend for us at Arrow in the Head!

JOHN DIES AT THE END will be available on all VOD platforms beginning DECEMBER 27th, before making a theatrical run on FEBRUARY 1, 2013.

In the film,
Paul Giamatti plays Arnie, a shadowy figure investigating a street drug known as Soy Sauce. Promising an out-of-body experience with each hit, Soy Sauce causes users to drift across time and dimensions. But some who come back are no longer human. Suddenly a silent otherworldly invasion is underway, and mankind needs a hero. What it gets instead is John and Dave (Mayes and Williamson), a pair of college dropouts who can barely hold down jobs. Can these two stop the oncoming horror in time to save humanity? No. No, they can’t.

JOHN DIES AT THE END premiered as a work in progress at this year’s Sundance film festival, kicking off an impressive festival run that included SXSW and the upcoming Toronto International Film Festival, where the final cut of the film will premiere as the closing night film of Midnight Madness.
