The ABCs Of Death Reveals Its First Bloody Image
Several Months back we brought you the skinny regrading a very interesting project which is being produced by Drafthouse Films, Magnet Pictures and Timpson Films known as The ABCs of Death. The a 26-chapter film will showcase death in all its vicious wonder and brutal beauty. With Twenty-five established directors involved (see list below) and 1 amateur this project is epic to say the least.
Each director was asgned a letter from the alphabet that represented a word to act as a springboard for a short story of death. It was up to each filmmaker to interpret the letter and word that they were asgned to tell a deathly tale, from the accidental to murder most foul. The sum of these parts, from A to Z, will be THE ABCs OF DEATH.
Ok, so now that we got you up to speed on this whole project, director Xavier Gens provided us with the first image from his contribution to the anthology which can be seen below. Although it is unknown which letter of the alphabet he was asgned, we do know that the still is pretty ck!
