A Profane Sneak Preview!

The producers of The Profane Exhibit are excited to announce a screen a sneak preview of their long-awaited horror anthology. For this event, we have chosen HorrorHound Weekend in Cincinnati Ohio on March 22, 2013. We will screen segments on Friday night. A Q&A will also be offered with various directors, producers, actors, and team members of the 13 segmented anthology … a few, of which, will have several very special announcements. Some of the segments screened will be Director’s cuts, and may be the only time these versions of the segments will be available for view. The Profane Exhibit will be represented, in various ways, throughout the weekend.

The Profane Exhibit
Deep within the underbelly of Paris, there is a club which is the home of a secret, wicked society. At first it resembles an ordinary fetish or Goth nightclub, but within the cavernous building are many hidden rooms, one of which is known as “The Room of Souls,” a private gathering place of the world’s richest and most evil people. Their host is the elegant yet frightening Madame Sabatier. For their amusement, each member takes a turn and spins a true tale of depravity: A good wife learns that her husband goes out at night to abduct and murder young women; a botched suicide attempt leads to a drug-induced dream; a girl is believed to be possessed by a demon, and her overly religious parents enlist the help of a corrupt reverend who has his own sinister plans. We are invited inside the deranged mind of a respected surgeon as he takes us on a guided tour of life, death, and everything in between; a young street prostitute crosses paths with a charismatic flesh trader and is forced to take an unspeakable journey of sex, violence, and murder; a nun is abducted off the streets of Rome and held captive for over a year, turning her into a feral, murderous creature to be unleashed on society; a chance encounter on a fateful bus ride for an unsuspecting girl who dreams of riches and fame is her undoing; a man picks up a woman in a nightclub and soon finds himself at the mercy of a cult of women who believe consumption of their sacrifice will bring them to their highest form of female dominance; an unflinching look into darkest Africa where human life is traded for fortune and the most unspeakable atrocities are committed.

The Profane Exhibit is an extreme international horror anthology film that was conceived, written, and produced by David Bond and Manda Manuel. Legendary horror writer Ray Garton wrote the wraparound segment, and Scott Swan (Showtime’s Masters of Horror) wrote the screenplay. Jeremy Kasten, director of such films as the recent Wizard of Gore remake, serves as the film’s editor.

“We are excited to host this significant moment in horror. In 2008, British columnist Ann Billson wrote, ‘Horror movies have always been a way of addressing our most unspeakable fears and desires… (they) draw on metaphors that are not polished and hermetically sealed, but misshapen or amorphous, like the monsters themselves, which leaves all the more room for individuals to interpret them on a personal level.’ If the metaphors were stripped away and the horror was presented in a raw, honest form, could an audience handle it? The Profane Exhibit is willing to test, and obliterate, those boundaries.” – Jason Hignite, HorrorHound Magazine
