I reviewed Uncle Peckerhead at the 2020 Panic Fest earlier this year, and boy was I impressed. In that review, I praised its hyperviolent deaths, hilarious script, and pitch-perfect cast of lovable weirdos. Here we are 7 months later, and we finally have new details on when you can check it out for yourself.
Uncle Peckerhead will be releasing in select theaters on Friday, August 7 and available on VOD/Digital Tuesday, August 11. To celebrate, we’re sharing a brand new trailer! Check it out below, and let us know what you think. You don’t want to miss this one. Trust me.
Judy, the bassist of punk-rock band DUH, dreams of traveling the world and becoming a full-time musician with her two friends, guitarist Max and drummer Mel. But when DUH’s van is repossessed hours before they’re set to embark on their first tour, desperation sets in, and Judy strikes an uneasy alliance with a redneck old-timer by the name of Peckerhead, or ‘Peck’, who offers to drive them in his van in exchange for food and gas. The band quickly comes to realize their new roadie is a cursed, man-eating hillbilly and the “gig life” they’ve always dreamed of is paved with nightmares and half-eaten bodies.
