(New York, NY) – Greetings from Tromaville! Troma Entertainment’s latest film, Travis Campbell’s MR. BRICKS, will be playing at the 44th annual Sitges Film Festival in Sitges, Barcelona, Spain on October 10th, 2011, at 7:30 p.m. at the BRIGADOON.(Edifici Miramar, Carrer Davallada, 12-08870 Sitges, BCN.) MR. BRICKS is a heavy metal murder musical that has been quickly gaining a following by both music and horror fans alike. Sitges is the world’s most prestigious film festival focused on Fantasy, Horror and Sci-Fi.
Brutality has a new name, and it’s Mr. Bricks. MR. BRICKS, directed by Travis Campbell and produced by Justin Martell, is a musical the likes of which have never been seen. The film introduces tattooed muscleman Tim Dax as Mr. Bricks, an ex-con left for dead in an empty New York City warehouse. Rocked by headaches caused by the bullet lodged in his brain, he pieces together memories — the barrel of a gun…his girl’s scream…and eventually, the face of the dirty cop (Vito Trigo, Dark Windows) who pulled the trigger! All he wants is to find his missing girl, Scarlet (Troma discovery Nicola Fiore, Ms. Cannibal Holocaust, Game Over), and vows to kill anyone who gets in his way. Love is murder in this bloody tale of lust, desire, and revenge. Like G. G. Allin meets The Rocky Horror Picture Show, MR. BRICKS will knock you out of your seat with nine head-banging musical numbers.
