Cassandra Peterson, better known as Elvira Mistress of the Dark, lets her hair down to play the concerned mother of a teenage horror movie fanatic in writer-director Joshua Grannell’s feature film debut All About Evil.

The synopsis reads:

All About Evil is a wicked black comedy set in the world of a horror movie about a mousy librarian (Natasha Lyonne) who inherits her father’s beloved but failing old movie house. In order to save the family business she discovers her inner serial killer – and a legion of rabid gore fans – when she starts turning out a series of grisly shorts. What her fans don’t realize yet is that the murders in the movies are all too real!

Costarring with Peterson are Natasha Lyonne (the ugly chick from American Pie), Thomas Dekker (A Nightmare On Elm Street), Noah Segen (Dead Girl), and Julie Caitlan Brown (“Babylon 5”).
