The hills are alive with the sounds of murder. Gold, greed and wrath surface in the deadly beach town of KILL DEVIL HILLS. Says writer-director Butch Maier, “I grew up watching horror movies from the ’70s and ’80s, including ‘Friday the 13th,’ so it felt appropriate to release the trailer on that day.”

KILL DEVIL HILLS stars Sarah Kate Allsup (BAD MOMS), Shelby Johnson (MOTHER OF A DAY), Ashlyn Musser, Zay Perry, E.P. Macalma and Leanna Criss as friends who wonder if a treasure is buried in the Outer Banks. They start digging for answers in the sand dunes. Trouble soon finds them by way of town locals portrayed by Leon Griffin, Stephen Carlson and Ron Bianchi.

Maier produced the film through his Sumbadhat Productions, with Stanley Aughtry and Anthony Duncan serving as executive producers

Maier plans to release the movie in October on a date and platform to be determined.
