Must Watch: Sick and Twisted Red Band Trailer for Deadgirl

This is just messed up. No seriously, this movie is f**ked up! Bloody Disgusting has scored a very red band full-length trailer for Deadgirl, an indie horror flick I saw with Peter of SlashFilm last year in Toronto (read my review). We actually featured a short teaser for this last September, but it doesn't even compare to this trailer. I would suggest you watch this trailer only if you can stomach most horror movies and if you're not already revolted at the concept. Basically, two teens find a zombie-ish dead girl in an abandoned mental hospital basement and realize that if they keep her locked up, she makes for a great sex toy. Take a look
Watch the red band bootleg trailer for Deadgirl found on YouTube:
For more info on this film, visit the official website: DeadGirlMovie.com
Deadgirl is co-directed by up-and-coming filmmakers Marcel Sarmiento (Heavy Petting, It's Better to Be Wanted for Murder Than Not to Be Wanted at All) and Gadi Harel (Nights Like These, Operation Midnight Climax). The script was written by actor Trent Haaga, of Raving Maniacs and other horror films previously. This first premiered at the Toronto Film Festival late last year and has played at other fest like the Alamo Drafthouse's Fantastic Fest. Dark Sky Films is finally releasing Deadgirl in limited theaters on July 24th.

Is it just me or they used the donnie darko soundtrack on that trailer? As for the trailer, i dunno, most of the time the screen was dark as hell, couldnt see much.

I saw this at SIFF about a month ago and I have to say that it was /amazing/. Horror (n) - The strong feeling caused by something frightful or shocking; shuddering fear and disgust; terror and repugnance This movie was one of the most prime examples of that definition that I have seen in awhile, while still maintaining a good story. Just my two cents. Oh, and at the screening I attended, the directors were there and mentioned that they were trying for a DVD release before the end of the year, I believe they said Oct or Nov. They also had some pretty funny things to say about casting the deadgirl. Really fun guys.

Looks nothing like a horror movie. Doesn't look bad, suspenseful sure, but that's not horror unless you're 9.

I'm intrigued! That abandoned building/hospital was also used for Duran Duran's "Falling Down" video! I'm checkin' this out!

Yeah! Because porking a dead chick, now that's some quality tail right there! Wooot! Might as well screw a bowl of sand filled with maggots and worms. Rumor has it the cunnilingus scene was cut because it was "just too edgy." At least there wasn't an epidemic! Ugh. Hollywood sucks.

Is this again one of those racist videos that can't be played if you don't live in the U.S.?

I could watch it... from Sweden. Looked ok, but nothing special. Didn't make me jump or get too excited.

that wasnt a very good trailer i thought.

Uh...I am disappointed. You made it sound like it was a reeeally hard to stomach movie/trailer. But it seem very horror to me. More like a twisted thriller with some horror elements, like dark corridors, and things jumping out at you to loud sound effects. Sure, it seems to get intense, I will watch it anyways. But if you wanna talk about disturbing, hard to stomach movies, something like Martyrs, Pink Flamingos and Salo is more like it. Those are really "edgy". Maybe I am just too desensitized. *shrugs*

It doesn't seem very horror to me.* Gah, I can't type today! /quit internet

Definitely seems like something I'd want to check out, love horror films. But there's nowhere I can find that lists the limited theaters it's playing in. Oh well, Minneapolis probably isn't one of them anyway 🙁

I've actually seen this recently although in the beginning the dialogue is pretty dumb, the story's really cool and there are some parts that are excellently funny (to me) Yes, i would recommend to a friend.

If you can't get the girl of your dreams, then you have to settle with the dead girl. The live girl did have orange hair though, bit of a ranga.

This may actually be a decent fuckin flick, regardless of specified genre. I think the thriller aspect works well and what looks like happens is quite twisted. Can't wait to see it!

looks really good,nothing to disturbing, nothing we avnt seen b4 wots the big fuckin deal.

reading this thread reminds me of how many desensitized losers have access to the internet. and #44 - you've seen this before? where? it's a movie about 2 guys finding a "dead" girl......abusing her in a variety of ways and finding out she CAN'T die. just exactly what other movie mimics this storyline? #25 - the "movies" you list are nothing more than violence thrown on film for shock value. the fact you cite them as examples of GOOD horror is a joke. yea.......you're waaaaay too desensitized if that's what you need to watch for a horror rush. #13 - you must be ten then? seriously woot.......what kind of torture porn does it take for you to call it REAL horror? #38 - i think quarantine scary is pretty scary. if you were in the same situation as the people in quarantine, you'd be crying like a little girl. #37- you say lame but don't give a reason. you may have a valid point too, if i knew WHY you thought it was lame. it's actually lame of you to say "it's lame" without giving a reason. LOL on topic.......this looks really good. it seems to have a more detailed plotline than i had previously thought and that's encouraging. i just hope it's explained WHY she can't die and how she ended up in that asylum basement wrapped in plastic.

You are right on, dan. I watched this, ready for what I assumed would be the jump out of my chair, cover my eyes moments, but, quite frankly, it never came. It seems we have become ridiculously de-sensitised. I like the concept, it seems very interesting, and I hope this is less gore and more story than most present day 'horror' films. It might be a good DVD movie, just in case it is really scary. I guess I'll have to wait and see.
Barb on Jul 3, 2009

Awww, Dan is a little girl afraid of the dark. Sure if I was in the same situation as Quarantine I'd be scared, but it doesn't make the movie scary and how is this movie scary? Sex with a dead girl...well, that is scary. Who knows what you'll get...AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#45 I never said the movies I listed were GOOD movies. I merely named them, because they definitely belong into the "disturbing and hard to stomach" category. They are just gross, just like you said, pure shock value. And they are not "what I need for a horror rush". Way to fly off the handle and take what I said out of context. From the description of the trailer, I expected something similar. That's why I was disappointed, seeing how the trailer didn't show anything that made me turn my head, or cover my eyes at all. (The trailer had no sound for me, maybe dialogue would have helped here.) Alex made it sound like it was some kind of SAW-like movie, and I prepared myself to be grossed out. That's all. I also said, I will watch it anyways. And just an FYI: I don't need lots of blood, gore and torture porn to enjoy a horror movie. The most suspense and thrill I get, is from movies where you don't see stuff like that at all. Psychological horror is far more gripping, imo, because irrational fears are a bitch to deal with. So, calm down and don't be so judgmental, jeez.

Just saw the film. It's definitely a m'eh. Though I might just think this because I expected great things from this concept; I really thought it was going to be a deep delve into the psyche of youth, sexual confusion, the human mind, and why we make the choices we make. It just left me wanting more, but in a bad way, the same way Hard Candy did, if anyone saw that (though that film was definitely better than Deadgirl). Basically, it would have benefited from a lot more thought about the story they were telling, as unfortunately there wasn't one. Almost nothing happened in this movie, and what does happen is the middle of the road. It's not a horror. It's not a zombie movie. It's not a sexual movie. It's definitely not a "coming of age" story, as the trailer would have you believe. Yeah, it's fucked up. Yeah, they do sick & twisted shit, but nothing you don't expect once you know what the film is about. Everything just seemed way too drawn out, which I wouldn't mind except the writing wasn't anything special. You're right, most people would walk out, but probably because it was so slow and some of the acting was quite poor, even by the main actors. I'd say more, but those who really want to see it will.

i didnt see anything unsettling in the trailer. but i imagine the movie will be worse... in terms of gore n stuff. and this plot is fucked up... necrophelia?? no thanks.

twisted cool concept! side note: Alex keep up the good work, I think most people enjoy your articles. You must have some pretty tough skin having your everyword anylized daily.

#55 Tyler, did you really go to see the movie because you " thought it was going to be a deep delve into the psyche of youth, sexual confusion, the human mind, and why we make the choices we make."? Man, go watch some Bergman, Antonioni or Egoyan. And let's call trash the trash - whether it's entertaining or not. And I am still puzzled and disgusted by the fact that the American cinema and gaming industry keeps on producing dozens of sadistic and ultra-violent products - and audiences follow - but healthy, natural sex/eroticism is still seen as a taboo (or becomes porn). And nobody seems to care. Sick. Very sick.
Alex C. on Jul 24, 2009

Yes, I did. That's why I said it. Because the trailer led me to believe it was going to be more than what it actually was.

I watched Deadgirl over the weekend, and while it had some redeemable value, some of the actors were fucking TERRIBLE. The lead guy was great, and the woman of his affections was cute, but not solid. The friend that turns into the zombie "pimp" went batshiat insane for no reason.... It was maybe a 6/10, and I was hoping for so much more...
