"Cricket Snapper" movie signs distribution deal
***** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE *****
Cricket Snapper -“When the blood flows hot in a cold New
England town, its blackest secrets are finally revealed…”
February 17, 2010 – Allston, MA – Phoenix Rising Films and Metropolitan Pictures are proud to announce the release into distribution of the new feature-length movie, Cricket Snapper written and directed by local filmmaker Lawson Welles and filmed entirely in New England.
Cricket Snapper is a 92-minute work of fiction initially inspired by true events, and follows Detective Allan McDermott of the “River Falls” police department as he investigates a quadruple homicide among the S&M/Bondage subculture of his quiet New England town. The movie has been described as “a cross between 8mm and a Charles Bronson film.”
Cricket Snapper is being released by Brain Damage Films of Tempe AZ, the worldwide leader in indie horror, Goth and shock movies and DVD’s, and will be distributed online and in the US through Netflix and Blockbuster and internationally in the UK, Russia and more. Cricket Snapper is Metropolitan Picture’s 2nd full-length movie released under the Brain Damage Films imprint.
Cricket Snapper is an independently-financed production written and directed by Lawson Welles, with Directors of Photography Jerry Bagdasarian and Stephen Sandberg, and features an outstanding local cast including Jon Saphire, Nancy Sadsad and Kelly Cook, among others.
Cricket Snapper has bone-chilling soundtrack music provided by Church Of Satan founder and author of The Satanic Bible, Dr. Anton S. LaVey (1930-1997) and his successor as High Priest of the Church of Satan, Peter H. Gilmore (both courtesy of Reptilian Records of Baltimore, MD) as well as local musicians Phoenix Rising, Jose Ramos, Device Cycle, Don Hammontree and more.
Cricket Snapper was edited and mastered at Metropolitan Pictures Studios of Allston, MA by Warren Lynch (Pony Trouble, 2005) and Scott A. Matalon (Boston Boxing, 2010, also founder of Stingray Body Art tattoo, piercing and permanent makeup emporium in Boston, MA). Additional scenes filmed by Metropolitan Pictures feature local rock hangout O’Briens Pub and civic leader/philanthropist Bob Webber of Model Hardware as “Police Chief Ferguson.”
Scott Matalon of Metropolitan Pictures says: “Cricket Snapper, like Apocalypse Now, is a journey into the heart of darkness not only for the audience, but also for the Director. Filmed over a 5 year period at tremendous personal, financial and emotional cost, Cricket Snapper is a riveting, often times gut-wrenching journey from its opening moments to the final climax.”
Director Lawson Welles agrees, and adds that: “Without the love and support of such an excellent and professional local cast and crew, I probably would have died making this movie. There are scenes in here that were incredibly difficult for everyone, especially the actors, and I salute the dedication and commitment of everyone who was involved.”
