SOMEONE DIES! Film Festival Update

SOMEONE DIES! is headed to Chattanooga Film Fest

SOMEONE DIES! Award winning film. BOOYA

Our second feature film is playing virtually and in-person at the Chattanooga Film Festival on 6/23/24 at 12:55p Chattanooga time. The virtual portion of the fest will make the film available from June 21st thru June 28th, so get on it if you’re a real indie film nerd! We will be in attendance and plan on getting a Moonpie from the Moonpie factory there. Exciting stuff folks!

Additionally, the film played the Prison City Film Festival in February and we forgot to tell you about it! We had a blast in little old Huntsville Texas and picked up a couple of awards for Best Trailer and Best Makeup FX. Nice. Real nice.

The film is still out for a couple of possible festival appearances in 2024, but we are ready to get this sucker out and in your face.

Love you all.

Be first to see the SOMEONE DIES! trailer

Hello loyal lovers of cinema-

We have the first look at our new trailer with the new title and the new color and the new sound for “SOMEONE DIES!”

Credit to the all powerful Stefan Johnson (@s_johnson_voiceovers) who really gave this thing some life.

Our (probably) final cut is finally finished for real (maybe) and we sit and await the completion of the color. Most of the sound has been completed! And our journey will finally continue into the great big beautiful world of low budget movie releasing…which is maybe the toughest business to ever exist (debatably). We hope to have some screenings in the fall in around Texas or maybe where you are? Let us know if you are good friends with a art house indie film movie theater. We’d love to pay them to show the movie!

TRASH MOVIE KINGS continues chugging along through MARCHial Arts MADNESS where we are looking for great (bad) women-driven-martial-arts movies from bygone eras. To be clear, we want the movies to be bad. Women are very good. We kicked off with ALLEY CAT, which as beautiful and untalented at karate as Karin Mani is, maybe wasn’t the classic we were led to believe. Clarifying, Karin Mani is bad at karate. This is not an indictment of any woman not named Karin Mani or their abilities in the martial arts.

Be sure to follow on youtube or wherever you dig up your podcasts -- if you do not have access to YouTube or the Internet then we fully understand. We should not assume that everyone has access to these things. -- to catch the next episode on PANTHER SQUAD (another from 1984) where a whole team of women perform martial arts poorly that everyone for the most part was much higher on. Again, we are commenting solely on the talents of the women in PANTHER SQUAD. Women are great at martial arts! Look at Michelle Yeoh! Look at Cynthia Rothrock! The point is that THESE women are not good. That episode should be out soon if Justin ever finishes editing it. This is simply a dig at Justin Petty. We are not besmirching everyone who has ADHD and uses it as a blanket excuse to live their lives two weeks behind the rest of the world. WE SHALL SEE.

If you ever have any suggestions for what trash we should watch next, send us a message at trashmoviekings@gmail.com. And be sure to check out our social content which occasionally quite funny!

LOVE Y’ALL
