Dual Visions is moving closer to a release date for the serial killer feature The Divine Tragedies. This film was developed by two brothers: James and Jon Kondelik, along with director Jose Prendes. This creative team has taken some of their story from the famous Leopold and Loeb murder case, from 1924. As well, the film centrally stars: Barbara Crampton, Ken Foree, Lynn Lowry, Sean Whalen and Graham Denman. Now, a new poster is available for the film. To be more specific on the story, Charles Brubaker (Denman) and Thomas Lo Bianco (Jon Kondelik) are two brothers, with evil intentions. They hope to pull off the perfect murder and their first target is a young, single mother. Their list of targets grows, while a desperate detective tries to intervene. The evil spreads and these two brilliant brothers might kill forever. The latest graphic offers two quotes from early reviewers. Matt Boiselle...

indie horror films The Divine Tragedies has revealed yet another one-sheet, this is probably the best one yet. The Divine Tragedies is a film which takes its story from truth. Leopold and Loeb were two intellectuals, who thought they could get away with the perfect murder, in 1924’s Chicago.
In Jose Prendes’ vision, the two killers are brothers. Set in the modern era, Charles Brubaker (Graham Denman) and Thomas Lo Bianco (Jon Kondelik) believe they are above the law and they kill without mercy. Their murders become more and more gruesome, until Detective Homer (Ken Foree) is able to intervene. But, Homer is only a few steps away from his own tragedy.

Dual Visions has pulled back more of the curtain for the horror feature The Divine Tragedies. An official trailer for the film is now available. The clip, from director Jose Prendes and producers Jon and James Kondelik, shows two ruthless characters and their desire to carry out of the perfect crime. The film is reminiscent of other surreal films from the past, including David Cronenberg's Videodrome (1982). The Divine Tragedies stars Jon Kondelik, Barbara Crampton, Ken Foree, Lynn Lowry and Graham Denman. The full trailer is here. The film is based on the Leopold and Loeb murder case, from Chicago. In the early 1900s, two men would murder a child, in order to test their wits against authorities. In The Divine Tragedies, the characters are named Charles Brubaker and Thomas Lo Bianco. Together, this twisted duo hope to kill a young, single mother and evade authorities. But, Det. Homer is quickly on their trail.

It's been a few months since we've gotten an update on Jose Pendres' The Divine Tragedies, but our patience has paid off because today we have some new artwork and a few stills to share!
From the Press Release:
Film production company Dual Visions has completed the official artwork for the serial killer fever dream The Divine Tragedies, which shows a partially disguised character from the film.
This horrifying crime thriller is loosely based on the Leopold and Loeb murder case, in which two brothers murdered a young 14-year-old boy. This case shocked citizens of Chicago in 1924. Now, writer/director Jose Prendes (The Haunting of Whaley House) is re-envisioning the case for a new audience.

On a special day of shooting writer-director Jose Prendes’ Divine Tragedies with the fantastic Ken Foree, Dread Central was invited to watch some... well… shooting. In the scene they were about to film, Foree’s character gets shot. Whether he lives or dies, we can’t say...
But here’s what Prendes had to say:
Dread Central: So, tell us how you assembled this amazing cast!
Jose Prendes: Ken Foree and Barbara Crampton were always on our list, but we never thought we could get them, or thought they would be into it, because the roles are very stylized. Especially Barbara's role, which is very unique, and she hasn't really played anything like that before. So for her to call me up and say, 'This is a really disturbing script but it would make such a lovely movie and I want to be a part of it,' really means a lot.

It’s a sunny day in Southern California. That’s not unusual. An independent movie is being shot in a quiet residential neighborhood. That’s the norm. There are a few horror icons sprinkled throughout the cast. Typical.
What’s not so usual is that The Divine Tragedies isn’t your basic stab and slab. It’s a layered family drama which just happens to have some blood and gore. At the center of this dangerous dynamic is a cop who’s hunting a team of killer brothers – but he’s got an advantage because he’s psychic. That, and he’s played by the great Ken Foree.
We caught up with Ken on set (and some of the other cast... stay tuned for more interviews) and asked him what it’s been like to play the eccentric detective.
