BLACK HOLLER'S WORLD PREMIERE at THE BELCOURT THEATRE

BLACK HOLLER is now available on VIMEO On Demand: www.vimeo.com/ondemand/blackholler And on DVD & blu ray: www.blackholler.com/shop.html Video courtesy of Salina Hernandez of Not From Here Productions. 4/24/17 BLACK HOLLER premiered at Nashville's historic Belcourt Theatre. The 7pm screening was 5 seats shy of selling out! The 9:30 screening was packed as well! BLACK HOLLER is a horror-comedy and a "camp" movie- in every sense of the word. Set in 1989, it follows our protagonist, Laquita Johnson (Tamiko Robinson Steele), as well as a host of hapless, witless, and often completely oblivious community colleges students as they try to survive a class field trip to the woods of Black Holler. All of your favorite 1980's tropes are present and accounted for in this love letter to 80's cinema, as well as a bodacious original soundtrack (by Bruce Ervin) and a whole lot of cheese! Well, you're about to find out when things get "grody to the MAX" in "Black Holler"! Plot Summary: Street-smart Laquita Johnson (Tamiko Robinson Steele) has high hopes for a fresh start at a new school, but those hopes are halted when the dean (Brad Edward Prendergast) forces her on a field trip with the cheese-loving, dim-witted students of Archepology 101 led by the daffy Professor Thompson (Jesse Perry). On the bus, each 80's student archetype is present and accounted for, but once the group makes it to the haunted woods of Black Holler, roll call becomes nearly impossible! The campers were warned that the woods were dangerous, but they were all too busy hooking up, drinking beer and eating cheese to get the message. With her classmates disappearing left and right, and with everyone seemingly oblivious to the dangers around them, Laquita has to confront her troubled past in order to fulfill her destiny, escape the horrors of Black Holler, and save...er umm... some of the students along the way. It’s about to get campy, in this comedic homage to the horror movies and pop culture of the 1980’s!
