The Wilmywood shot indie flick Butchered is back! Producer Shaun O’Rourke made the announcement yesterday. The film was originally released in 2010 on DVD and digital streaming on Netflix by Anthem Digital. Then 2012 Echo Bridge Entertainment released the film in the “Backwoods Butchers” 4 pack for Halloween in Walmart, and K-Mart nationwide. Now Echo Bridge Entertainment has re-issued Butchered for the third time in the “15 Horror Movies” box set just in time for Halloween 2014!

“Butchered is one of the only indie features that has been released three times in the history of NC Film,” O’Rourke said. “It might be the only one to have that kind of success. It’s pretty amazing. It’s the little movie that could.”
