Dark Sky Films sent us the first official teaser poster for the upcoming horror movie “Hatchet III” in anticipation of this Saturday’s (April 13th) Monsterpalooza panel, where they will be presenting a special panel “THE FX OF THE HATCHET SERIES.” The cast of HATCHET III will be appearing on stage at 1:00pm. Panelists will include Adam Green, BJ McDonnell, Kane Hodder, Danielle Harris, Derek Mears, Rileah Vanderbilt and also Robert Pendergraft. Fans will get a glimpse of never before seen exclusive footage from the film and immediately following the panel, the cast will be on hand to sign this free limited edition teaser poster.
HATCHET III is set to open in New York City’s Cinema Village and in Los Angeles at Laemmle Music Hall on June 14th. Opening week will feature special appearances by cast and crew, followed by Q&A’s at each location. Additional cities will be announced at a later date.
Danielle Harris and Kane Hodder return in HATCHET III and are joined by Zach Galligan (Gremlins), Derek Mears (Friday the 13th 2009), Caroline Williams (Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2), Sean Whalen (The People Under the Stairs) and others.
HATCHET III continues the tale of the now-iconic villain Victor Crowley (Kane Hodder). As a search and recovery team heads into the haunted swamp to pick up the pieces and carnage left behind from the first two films, Marybeth (Danielle Harris) hunts down the true secret to ending the voodoo curse that has left the ghost of Victor Crowley haunting and terrorizing Honey Island Swamp for decades.
The sequel, which was filmed outside of New Orleans, Louisiana from late May to mid- June, 2012, is a co-production of MPI/Dark Sky Films and Green’s Los Angeles-based ArieScope Pictures.
