The Asylum Releases Third Installment of Doomsday Franchise With 13/13/13

Just in time for Halloween, The Asylum, the studio behind this summer’s social media juggernaut SHARKNADO, has followed that hit with the final installment of their ‘11/11/11’ horror franchise, called ‘13/13/13.’

‘13/13/13’ is available now on DVD, Blu-ray, and on demand. Written and directed by James Cullen Bressack (THEATER OF THE DERANGED, HATE CRIME), the film stars Trae Ireland, Erin Coker, Jody Barton, and Calico Cooper. Erin Coker returns from ‘11/11/11,’ though she does not reprise her role.

In the tradition of horror classics THE HILLS HAVE EYES and THE CRAZIES, ’13/13/13’ blends a demonic possession tale with the end of society as we know it. Its premise is simple and scary: calendars have added an extra day every four years for millennia. In doing so, they violated the ancient Mayan calendar. Now we are in the 13th month of the 13th year of the new millennium, and the few who survive will battle a world of demons.

‘11/11/11’ and ‘12/12/12’ are two of The Asylum’s most popular horror films to date, standing out in what is already an immensely successful genre for the studio. Those films approach the doomsday theme more obliquely, with the apocalypse in both ushered in by a demonic child. In ‘13/13/13,’ however, the calendar itself causes the world’s end.

Huge passion for film scores, lives for the Academy Awards, loves movie trailers. That is all.
