Thanks to the pushed-back release dates films have received due to the pandemic in the last couple of years, visual entertainment such as movies and television shows have been premiering much later than advertised. Luckily for Horror fans, this means staggered releases for scares and thrills without having to wait for the Halloween season.
One such example is actor Steve Guttenberg's (Police Academy, Veronica Mars) newest picture. Heckle.
The film blends horror and comedy in a way that's somewhat remniscent of Joker, and although it premiered at FrightFest back in 2020, Uncork'd Entertainment has finally announced a March 8 release date for digital and VOD.
Check out the official press release for Heckle below for all of the juicy details.
Uncork’d Entertainment will release Martyn Pick’s pitch-black comedy/horror HECKLE, starring internationally-recognized actor Steve Guttenberg (“Veronica Mars”, Cocoon, Police Academy), for a digital release this March.
The film, which premiered at FrightFest, tells of a famous stand-up comedian that encounters a seemingly insane heckler, who starts stalking him obsessively. Then, his friends start ending up dead! This takes heckling to a whole new level.
Airell Anthony Hayles wrote the screenplay.
Also starring the late Clark Gable III, grandson and namesake of the legendary Hollywood actorand American movie icon, Clark Gable, HECKLE will release on digital March 8th, 2022.
