Last September, writer/director Rob Zombie hyped up his latest film, 31, by predicting that one its characters, an evil fellow called Doom-Head and played by Richard Brake, would become the next great villain of horror. 31 has since had its world premiere at Sundance, where own our Chris Bumbray was lucky enough to see it. In his 7/10 review, Bumbray gives special mention to Brake's Doom-Head as "the deadliest killer" in the film. We've seen a couple images of Doom-Head before, and the latest 31 picture to hit the internet gives us another bloody look at this potential future icon.
Brake's co-stars in 31 include Sheri Moon Zombie, Jeff Daniel Phillips, Pancho Moler, Lew Temple, Malcolm McDowell, Meg Foster, Judy Geeson, Jane Carr, Ginger Lynn, Daniel Roebuck, Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs, Tracy Walter, E.G. Daily, Torsten Voges, David Ury, Bari Suzuki, Devin Sidell, and Kevin Jackson (pictured above).
The story 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 distribution rights to 31 are in the hands of Alchemy. Unfortunately, the company is currently experiencing what Deadline has referred to as "serious financial turmoil", which could explain why we have yet to see a trailer or hear word of a release date.
