Watch The Insane Red-Band Trailer For ‘The ABCs Of Death 2’!
Briefly: I was a big fan of the weird-as-hell horror anthology The ABCs of Death when it premiered early last year. The film was an entirely original, extremely memorable romp through every letter of the alphabet, and was absolutely chock full of laughs, scares, and WTF moments.
I was extremely excited when Magnet announced that a sequel was in the works, and that 26 new directors would be putting their own unique spin on each letter of the English alphabet. Today, Magnet released the red-band trailer for the film, giving us a phenomenal taste of the horrors we’re in for early next month.

ABC’s OF DEATH 2 is the follow-up to the most ambitious anthology film ever conceived with productions spanning from Nigeria to UK to Brazil and everywhere in between. It features segments directed by over two dozen of the world’s leading talents in contemporary genre film. The film is comprised of twenty-six individual chapters, each helmed by a different director assigned a letter of the alphabet. The directors were then given free rein in choosing a word to create a story involving death.
Provocative, shocking, funny and at times confrontational, ABC’s OF DEATH 2 is another global celebration of next generation genre film making.
