Acort International, one of the top distributors of independent films in the global marketplace, has recently acquired Rogue Taurus Productions' classic 80's throwback horror film RABID LOVE for international and US distribution. Distribution plans are currently in consideration which will include a North American DVD on the indie-horror label Midnight Releasing and cable/satellite/internet VOD run as well as being showcased at this year's 2013 American Film Market.

About The Film:

Rabid Love takes place in 1984 and is a rejuvenation of classic films like 'An American Werewolf in London', 'Friday the 13th', 'Evil Dead', and 'The Howling'. As a young child in the 80's, the time period holds a special place for director Paul J. Porter as a mixture of dreams and memories. Rabid Love is not a gory slasher film, but a thrilling and nostalgic story about unique characters with their own motivations and desires. They just happen to catch the attention of an evil recluse living in the woods and become the subjects of his latest experiment when all they wanted was a happy weekend with their friends before they all went their separate ways to their post-college lives.

"I made it a point to bring the look and feel of the era through in the settings, props, wardrobe, and most importantly, the characters of the film." - Director Paul J. Porter

More information on the official release date in the United States is yet to be announced. Official artwork and more news coming soon! Fans can get connected via the official Facebook and Twitter(#CatchTheVirus). There is also more information on the official website!

When Heather Ross and her lifelong friends take one final trip out to a cabin in the woods before they go their separate ways after graduating from college, the weekend takes an unexpected turn when people start disappearing.
