(Cannes) May 12, 2000 - The Troma Team
is proud to present the world premiere of the trailer for Parts
of the Family, an ambitious Belgian-American co-production
that combines the tension of Dog Day Afternoon with the
terror of Dawn of the Dead. The trailer will be shown
immediately before a private screening of Troma's Unspeakable,
directed by Chad Ferrin, this evening at 6:00 PM. This will
be the first in a series of three very special, invitation-only,
love-fest cocktail parties hosted by Troma in their glamorous
Love Chapel, located in suites #264 and 265 of the Carlton Hotel.
Parts of the Family tells the story of
a botched bank robbery that spirals into a horrifying hostage
situation unlike any other. Because this hostage isn't alone.
She has a family with blood ties that are stronger than death
and a house with a history and terror waiting inside. And this
bank robber is about to find out that death is not the end,
but only the bloody beginning. Parts of the Family is
directed by Leon Paul de Bruyn and produced by James Desert
(Troma's Rabid Grannies). The film stars Cecilia Bergqvist and
Bob Dougherty, with a special appearance by Troma president
Lloyd Kaufman as hostage negotiator Carl Ressler.
Parts of the Family will precede a private
screening of Unspeakable, the heart-warming and visually
gore-ifying tale of a man emotionally demolished by the death
of his only daughter. Chad Ferrin, the director of Unspeakable,
will be in attendance at this screening. Together, Parts
of the Family and Unspeakable create a double feature
which will have hearts (and stomachs) aflutter for days.
Admittance to this private screening is on a
first-come, first-serve basis. Those in attendance will also
receive the highly sought-after Troma Love Pack, containing
either a collectible limited edition Cannes Film Festival variant
of Troma's brand-new comic book The New Adventures of the
Toxic Avenger or "Hard-On For Tromaville", a 3-CD compilation
of independent rock and punk bands from around the world created
by AMP Records and Tromaville.com.
