Prepare to be terrified as PIG KILLER, the bone-chilling horror film inspired by the real-life crimes of Robert ‘Willy’ Pickton, brings the gruesome tale of a prolific serial killer to the silver screen. Starring Jake Busey, Lew Temple, and Bai Ling, this horrifying movie takes audiences on a journey through the darkest recesses of human depravity.
Directed by Chad Ferrin, known for his gripping work in Night Caller, Parasites, and The Ghouls, PIG KILLER promises to deliver a relentless onslaught of terror that will leave audiences on the edge of their seats. With a cast that includes the talented Ginger Lynn Allen (The Devils Rejects, 31) and the promising newcomer Kate Patel (Scalper), the film introduces us to an ensemble of characters entangled in the web of the sadistic killer’s reign of terror.
Producer Robert Rhine, whose credits include Exorcism At 60,000 Feet, Cynthia, and Night Caller, joins forces with Laurelwood Films and Girls and Corpses/Crappy World to bring this bone-chilling tale to life. Adding to the star power is Michael Pare (Gone, The Lincoln Lawyer, Eddie and The Cruisers) as one of the Royal Canadian Police detectives hot on the trail of the viscous serial killer that plagued Vancouver from 1983 to 2002.
Inspired by the horrifying crimes committed by Robert ‘Willy’ Pickton, PIG KILLER delves into the darkest corners of human cruelty. The film graphically portrays the chilling acts of rape, torture, slaughter, and dismemberment inflicted upon forty-nine young women on a pig farm. Alongside the monstrous Willy is his loyal and massive hog, Balthazar, and a disturbing cast of cohorts who wreak havoc on Vancouver’s seedy downtown. The arrest of Willy Pickton revealed a series of brutal murders that shocked the world and left a lasting mark on the city.
Brace yourself for PIG KILLER’s unflinching depiction of violence, sexual violence, threats, injury detail, and drug misuse. This cautionary warning from the British Board of Film Classification (BFC) underscores the intense and unsettling nature of the film, making it unsuitable for the faint of heart or those easily disturbed by explicit content.
