An IndieGogo campaign has been launched for a new horror movie called The Virginia Bitches, which will star members of Misfits, Arch Enemy, and Lamb of God, among others.
The Virginia Bitches centers around an all-female death metal band of vampires whose van breaks down in a town full of cannibals led by a warlock. The movie will be directed by Scott B. Hansen, who also helmed the 2020 film Bad Candy.
Update: Corey Taylor was initially listed as reprising his role as Chilly Billy from Bad Candy in the new movie, which takes place in the next town over. However, the Slipknot frontman tweeted that he is not involved in the film: “I’m not sure how this started, but I want to be clear: I am NOT in a movie called ‘The Virginia Bitches’. My apologies to the fans, those involved with the film and all the media outlets who are reporting on it. Thank you.”
The film is set to feature Arch Enemy’s Alissa White-Gluz as Kate, Misfits’ Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein as Meat, Lamb of God’s Randy Blythe as Druid, Sevendust’s Lajon Witherspoon as Darius, and Butcher Babies’ Heidi Shepherd as Morgan, among others. Actor Bill Moseley, known for his roles in numerous Rob Zombie-directed films, will play the warlock Cain.
Singer Dallas Taylor (Mylene & The Sons of Disaster, ex-Underoath), who will star as Jerry in the film, is serving as an executive producer on the movie.
The IndieGogo campaign seeks to raise $350,000, with supporters set to receive items ranging from a movie poster for a $15 donation to the actual van used by the vampire band in the movie for a $20,000 pledge.
