Project formerly in Wrong Turn director’s hands
Earlier this month, Shock had learned that Bad Meat – a film formerly directed by Wrong Turn‘s Rob Schmidt before funding was pulled from the production – found new life in the hands of filmmaker Lulu Jarmen.
To further confirm that the film is complete, it was recently picked up by Film4FrightFest for a Halloween All-Nighter event on Saturday, October 28. We have the very first image to come out of the film, too.
Elisabeth Harnois, Dave Franco, Mark Pelegrino, Tahj Mowry, Jessica Parker Kennedy, Joe Dinicol and Samantha Hill star.
In the film, a group of so-called problem teens are sent by their parents to a repressive Boot Camp in the middle of nowhere, in the hope that the strict regime will transform them into youthful model citizens that their parents can be proud of. However the kids refuse to play ball, and tensions emerge between them as they try to resist the guards’ sadistic methods. Meanwhile, the camp’s down-trodden cook has also tired of the abuse meted out to him by the guards, and fixes them a meal of illegal, diseased meat…a final “screw you!” before he abandons the camp. But he doesn’t know that the meat is infected with a virus, which instead of simply making the guards ill as he intended, transforms them into flesh-crazed maniacs!
