Gaming horror flick Livescreamers creeps into homes on Blu-Ray and VOD

The indie digital horror film Livescreamers is now available to watch on VOD and available to purchase on Blu-ray after a year of buzz in the festival circuit. The film is a timely take on the screenlife found-footage subgenre, following a group of gamers pitted against each other in a gruesome and lethal video game. The film contains themes of parasocial relationships, corporate greed, and the crushing unsustainability of online creation. Livescreamers stars Michael Smallwood (Halloween Kills), Christopher Trindade (Worst Laid Plans), and Ryan LaPlante (Holy Hell).

The film's accolades include the George A. Romero Fellowship at Salem Horror Film Festival, as well as being selected to play at Panic Fest, Unnamed Footage Festival, and Nevermore. The film also currently sits at a certified fresh 90% on Rotten Tomatoes.

A region-free Blu-ray of the film is available on the Octopunk Media Store page as well as on Amazon. The Blu-ray features a commentary track with the cast and crew, as well as a gag reel and a feature-length behind-the-scenes documentary. The film is also available on VOD for rental and purchase.
