The ABCs of Death!

THE ABCs OF DEATH

Premiering two months ago at the Toronto International Film Festival to their rowdy Midnight Madness crowds, "The ABC's of Death" showcases 26 short films by 26 different directors, each short focusing on a letter of the alphabet and how it connects to some horrific way to die.

The project gives several heralded contemporary horror directors from around the world, such as Ti West ("House of the Devil," "The Innkeepers"), Ben Wheatley ("Kill List"), and Jason Eisener ("Hobo with a Shotgun"), the chance to show off their gorific-horror chops.

And with segment titles like "V is for Vagitus" and "W is for WTF," you can bet that this ensemble of auteurs will be bringing some seriously sick stories to the screen. Watching the trailer, it's fun to speculate what the other letters might represent. Is P for Pedophile? F for Furry? Clearly D is for Dogfight, but is S for surgery, spiders, suicide or something even more disturbing?

The red band trailer unabashedly flaunts its extreme blood, gore, violence and nudity, and certainly looks to be a lot of fun. "The ABCs of Death" will be available on video on demand on January 31st, and will be released theatrically on March 8th.
