Trailer for Jose Prendes’ The Divine Tragedies promises a beautiful death

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

One film we've been keeping close tabs on over the past several months is Jose Prendes' THE DIVINE TRAGEDIES, a serial killer fever dream that stars genre heavyweights Ken Foree (DAWN OF THE DEAD), Lynn Lowry (CAT PEOPLE), Barbara Crampton (YOU'RE NEXT) and Sean Whalen (HATCHET III). Back in late July we brought you the official artwork for the film and today we've landed the first trailer to share with ya, and I gotta say that it looks like a wicked good time.

The Divine Tragedies, based loosely on the famous Leopold and Loeb murder case, tells the tale of Charles Brubaker and his half-brother Thomas Lo Bianco, who concoct a deadly game to test their superior intelligence against the dimwitted masses. This game will eventually lead to murder. And when Genevieve, a beautiful single mother, enters their lives they finally find the perfect girl for their first kill. But problems arise when they quickly discover that Detective Homer Gaul (Ken Foree), a cop with a very special gift, is hot on their trail.

Producers James and Jon Kondelik are hoping to release this title before audiences later this year as the film tours the film festival circuit, and judging from the trailer below audiences will be in for a real treat with this one. I'm certainly intrigued!
