‘Pigshit’ Teaser – The Squeal Is Real in Southern-Fried Indie Slasher Throwback

While most slasher throwbacks drawn inspiration from the tried-and-true staples of the genre, the upcoming Pigshit is described as “a gruesome love letter to deep-fried ’80s slasher classics like Slaughterhouse and Motel Hell.

The squeal is real in the teaser below from Astronomic Studios.

The film follows a group of young adults who return to an abandoned pig farm for a late-night party. Unbeknownst to them, the farm holds a dark secret—years ago, a young boy met a horrific end there, and his grieving father vanished into the woods.

But now, he’s back. Fueled by madness and bloodlust, the deranged farmer will stop at nothing to protect his land from the outsiders—some of whom may know more about the boy’s death than they’ve ever admitted.

Josh Schafer of Lunchmeat VHS dons the pig mask as the titular slasher. Patrick Moran, who played the killer in Jack-O, makes a special appearance in the film.

“This film is a gnarly, dirty throwback to the kind of movies I grew up renting,” says writer-director Bobby Canipe Jr. (Mom n’ Pop: The Indie Video Store Boom of the 80s/90s).

“Pigshit doesn’t hold back—it’s mean, nasty, and exactly the kind of slasher fans of ’80s Southern, backwoods horror are going to love.”

Dan Grogan, Mel Heflin, Ryan Martel, Kelsey Baker, Chris Lutterloah, and Mason Hamby also star.

Currently in post-production, the film is gearing up for an October release.
