THE COOK cast signing at Anchor Bay Booth (#304 & #405)

COOK posters and DVDs will be signed.

JACK BROOKS MONSTER SLAYER panel discussion at Petree Hall
The brainchild of filmmakers Trevor Matthews, Jon Knautz and Patrick White, JACK BROOKS MONSTER SLAYER tells the story of Jack Brooks (Matthews), a lonely plumber who has repressed memories of his family’s murder. When he unknowingly awakens an ancient evil, Jack must summon all his courage to confront not only his dark past but battle a host of creatures bent on destroying the world! A hit at this year’s Slamdance festival, JACK BROOKS MONSTER SLAYER co-stars horror legend Robert Englund and will be released by Anchor Bay Entertainment later this year. Join star/writer/producer Trevor Matthews, director Jon Knautz and composer Ryan Shore (son of Oscar-winning composer Howard Shore) for a preview of this very special horror adventure epic, moderated by Fangoria editor Tony Timpone.
