Eerie Trailer for Folk Horror Film ‘All You Need is Death’ from Ireland

"Not for public consumption." "Just for us to hear..." Some spook new Irish horror!

This initially premiered at Beyond Fest last year, and it also played at the Cork & Sitges Film Festivals. It's opening in the US in April available on VOD to watch at home.

All You Need is Death is the narrative feature debut from Dublin-based writer/director Paul Duane and stars Olwen Fouéré, Charlie Maher, Simone Collins, and Gary Whelan.

An imprisoned government asset, whose sole purpose is determining the serving sizes of snacks, has finally reached his breaking point. "I came up with the idea for Jimmy Boden as I was eating a bag of chips. I looked at the back and noticed the serving size: seven chips. Who ever just eats seven chips?" Indeed. Pickering's friend Andrew Simmons stars as Jimmy. They really got this just right - from the slick set design to the snack "props" to Jimmy's hilarious performance. Aced it.
