Level 33 Entertainment acquires ‘All You Need Is Blood’ for North American release
A new zombie comedy hits the screens
Level 33 Entertainment has secured the North American distribution rights for the zombie horror-comedy film All You Need Is Blood, starring Mina Suvari. The film is set to premiere on the KINO Studio app on October 19, followed by a release on various VOD platforms.
From festival favorite to mainstream release
All You Need Is Blood made its world debut at the Sitges Film Festival last year and has since garnered acclaim on the genre festival circuit. The film even snagged the Fangoria Award at Make Believe Seattle, solidifying its status as a must-watch for horror-comedy enthusiasts.
A unique plot with a fresh perspective
The film marks the debut of writer/director Bucky Le Boeuf. The story revolves around Bucky, a 16-year-old aspiring director who dreams of becoming the next arthouse auteur. When a mysterious meteor crash lands in his backyard, turning his deadbeat father into a brain-eating zombie, Bucky and his friends seize the opportunity to create the ultimate horror flick, starring his undead dad. However, they soon realize that making a movie with real zombies is more challenging than they anticipated, especially since Bucky can’t stand the sight of blood.
Star-studded cast
Mina Suvari, known for her role in American Pie, plays a diva actress, while Logan Riley Bruner from Stranger Things stars as Bucky. Eddie Griffin also joins the cast as a God-fearing detective, adding another layer of intrigue to the film.
Production team and executive producers
The film is produced by Jordan Yale Levine, Jordan Beckerman, and Jesse Korman of Yale Entertainment, alongside Russ Posternak of Post Films. The team previously collaborated on the indie hit Becky and its sequel The Wrath of Becky. Executive producers include Clay Pecorin, Russell Geyser, Brian S. Unger, Eric Broughton, Roz Rothstein, Michael J. Rothstein, Nicholas Donnermeyer, Will Hirschfeld, Jason Kringstein, Scott Levenson, Jeffrey Tussi, and David Nazar.
