A new slasher attempts to make his mark on the horror scene with CHAIN LETTER, produced by Deon Taylor Enterprises and Twisted Pictures, the latter being the folks behind the SAW franchise. New Films International is taking it to theaters, and informed Fango of the cities it’ll hit.

CHAIN LETTER will open Friday, August 6 on big screens in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, Houston and Miami. Directed by Taylor from a script he wrote with Diana Erwin and co-star Michael J. Pagan, the film stars THE HILLS HAVE EYES’ Michael Bailey Smith as Chain Man, a hulking psychopath who murders young people who don’t forward his chain message. The genre-friendly cast also includes Keith David and the SAW sequels’ Betsy Russell as detectives tracking the killer, along with Brad Dourif, DEADGIRL’s Noah Segan, the TWILIGHT films’ Nikki Reed, Bai Ling, Matt Cohen and PARASOMNIA’s Cherilyn Wilson. Look for a story on CHAIN LETTER in Fango #295, on sale in June.
