If you spend any time at Gayly Dreadful or on Twitter, you know I’m quite fond of Keola Racela’s Porno. It’s a delightful creature feature that’s also a coming-of-age story about a group of repressed high school students working at an old theatre owned by a religious person.

It also has a shit ton of dick trauma.

Before we get to the press announcement, if you haven’t, give the Scarred For Life Podcast episode below a listen. We interview Porno director Keola Racela about his movie and House, the movie that traumatized him as a kid. And make sure to preorder Porno this weekend as it’s on a killer sale.

FANGORIA OFFERS SPECIAL WEEKEND RATE IN

PRE-SALE FOR HORROR-COMEDY ‘PORNO’

As previously announced, FANGORIA acquired world distribution rights to PORNO, the horror comedy from director Keola Racela and writers Matt Black and Laurence Vannicelli that had its world premiere last year at SXSW. Produced by Chris Cole and Sarah Seulki Oh for Evoke, PORNO features a group of seemingly wholesome young movie theatre employees being tempted and terrorized by a sex demon. Clever, gruesome, and based around a number of truly unsavory practical FX gags (For evidence of this, gird your loins and look no further than #Page54 on horror Twitter), PORNO has the kind of old-school horror sensibility audiences have come to expect from FANGORIA.

Now, this weekend only (4/17-19), the iTunes pre-order of PORNO is being offered at a special rate of $7.99, half off its full price. The pivot to focus on making streaming content more accessible represents one of FANGORIA’s several moves to help horror fans keep in touch with the latest news and content from home. “We’re thrilled to be able to offer this fun movie in several ways during this time of great emotional upheaval,” FANGORIA’s VP of Acquisitions & Distribution, Brandon Hill, remarks. He continues, “While the virtual theatrical window will be open for another couple of weeks, with new theaters joining each weekend, the pre-sale discount that’s running this weekend is a great way for audiences to support these indie filmmakers and treat themselves to something to watch in a few weeks when the movie hits VOD.”
