Possibly one of the hardest-working actors in the horror genre, Robert Englund will return to UK home entertainment with the release of Inkubus from Trinity X. We last spoke with Englund about his movie The Mole Man of Belmont Avenue, and Inkubus looks like it could be a much darker experience than the light-hearted Mole Man.

Here's the official line:

Murder, gore and mayhem ensue as two giants of the horror genre, Robert Englund and William Forsythe team up for the first time in supernatural horror thriller, Inkubus , which will be released by Trintiy X on DVD in the UK, Monday Feb 13, 2012.

Directed  by feature film debutant Glenn Ciano, Inkubus tells the gruesome story of the demon Inkubus (played by Englund) who is hell-bent on destroying the one man who almost captured him thirteen years ago, Detective Gil Diamante (William Forsythe).

Shot in just 15 days, Ciano has gone on record as saying he wanted the film to be a “nuts and guts” throw-back to the 80s genre film.

Englund, who is known for working with new-blood directors such as Adam Green, Tim Sullivan and Scott Glosserman explains why he took the role:  “I deliberately now look first at scripts from newcomers and Glenn Ciano’s Inkubus was such an intriguing project. People like him have shone a new light on the genre and provided it with a new and viable business model”.

Synopsis:

A ghastly beheading calls Detective Caretti (Joey Fatone) back to Woodhaven police station, where the skeleton crew find themselves in for a long and deadly night as the demon Inkubus (Robert Englund – A Nightmare on Elm Street, Freddie Vs Jason) returns. With a murderous legacy dating back to the middle-ages, Inkubus is hell-bent on destroying the one man who almost captured him thirteen years ago, Detective Gil Diamante (William Forsythe – Halloween).
