FULL DESCRIPTION
Jason Axinn's To Your Last Death is nothing short of groundbreaking. As a hand-drawn, 2D animated feature-length horror movie -- and an incredibly violent horror movie -- inspired by adult graphic novels like Preacher, To Your Last Death could certainly lay claim to being a one-of-a-kind film experience and leave it at that. But no, it goes the extra mile by casting a powerhouse roster of celebrity voice talent including Morena Baccarin (DEADPOOL, Joss Whedon's FIREFLY) Ray Wise (TWIN PEAKS, ROBOCOP), Bill Moseley (HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES, TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2), Dani Lennon (THE LOVE WITCH), and the legendary William Shatner (you know who he is).
Offering an animation style that is somewhere between a motion comic and the style of Archer and a sci-fi/horror narrative that combines the gruesome violence of SAW with the time travel of GROUNDHOG'S DAY and HAPPY DEATH DAY 2 U, To Your Last Death is a pulse-pounding and visually vibrant fresh new entry into the horror genre making its Canadian debut at Hexploitation Film Festival taking a place right alongside Heavy Metal as one of the best animated films for adults ever made.
