MARTYRS Screamfest Premiere: (l-r) Matthew Jaeger, Michael Goetz, Bailey Noble, Caitlyn Carmichael, Troian Belissario, and Kevin Goetz

Martyrs Screamfest World Premiere!!!

Screamfest, the annual horror-based film festival celebrates its fifteenth year at the TCL Chinese 6 Theaters with Martyrs Screamfest World Premiere.

It was all going down on Tuesday night on the Hollywood walk of fame as the stars of Martyrs walked the carpet and dazzled Screamfest fans. This year Screamfest is pulling out all the stops to mark the occasion with an art exhibition and an especially power packed selection of films featuring such hits as the Paranormal Activity franchise.

With that said, Martyrs made its world premiere Tuesday night at the festival. The movie is a remake of the 2008 cult sensation Martyrs.

In this revisioning of Martyrs, stars Troian Belissario and Bailey Noble are the two protagonists, since the film separates itself from its predecessor. This time the plot transforms into a suspenseful and thought provoking film that provides the exhilaration and chills that fans crave in their movie going experience.

MARTYRS is a remake of a French film, which follows ten-year-old Lucie flees from the isolated warehouse where she has been held prisoner. Deeply traumatized, she is plagued by awful night terrors at the orphanage that takes her in. Her only comfort comes from Anna, a girl her own age. Nearly a decade later and still haunted by demons, Lucie finally tracks down the family that tortured her. As she and Anna move closer to the agonizing truth, they find themselves trapped in a nightmare – if they cannot escape, a martyr’s fate awaits them…
