In Crest Point, life is pretty average, except for the minor fact that mysteriously town residents keep disappearing. As a local detective tries desperately to piece the clues together, a single mom tries endlessly to reach her troubled son who in turn strikes up a relationship with a murderer. When all the pieces to the detective's puzzle fall into place, will the murderer protect his own? Jarod Leary (Jeremy Sumpter) is a seventeen year old high school student who refuses to fit in and finds comfort in solitude. Bullied by the jocks and teased by the cheerleader, the fatherless loner turns to drugs and self-mutilation as an escape outlet. When his mother urges him to get an after school job, Jarod finds himself working at a neighborhood funeral home. Stan (Brad Dourif) is the owner of the local funeral home where Jarod finds work; the two loners quickly hit it...

Actor Brad Dourif is most commonly known for his roles in genre fare such as Exorcist 3, Grim Prairie Tales, and the Child’s Play series. In more recent years Dourif has expanded his repertoire on television with roles in Deadwood and Law & Order, but that hasn’t stopped him returning to the more creepy roles with which he made his name, such as in his latest movie Death and Cremation.
The debut of director Justin Steele, Death and Cremation is from a script by Alecc Bracero and Justin Steele, and stars Dourif along with Jeremy Sumpter (Friday Night Lights), Scott Elrod, Debbon Ayer (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), Daniel Baldwin (Homicide: Life on the Street), and Staci Keenan (My Two Dads, Step by Step) in a story that takes place:
In Crest Point, [where] people go about their day-to-day lives with no sense of urgency and standard stereotypes abound. There...

In the interests of full disclosure I will admit up front that I am a pretty big fan of Brad Dourif and love his performances in otherwise terrible films.
In addition to some questionable film choices, Dourif has recently done solid work in a number of Werner Herzog films and is probably still picking up pay checks for supplying the voice of Chucky in the Childs Play films.
He recently had a small part in Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call – New Orleans and even managed to stand out there, against the wild eyed crazed performance by Nicholas Cage.
Brad Dourif is now playing a role that was surely made for him, a creepy funeral owner in a new thriller, Death and Cremation.
Death and Cremation is the feature film debut of Justin Steele, who in addition to directing also co-wrote the film. The film was shot on the Red One by cinematographer Akis Konstantakopoulos. Although the plot doesn’t sound that exciting...

I simply don't think there is enough Brad Dourif in cinema, or else I am looking in the wrong places. Instantly recognizable, Dourif has shown up in all sorts of genres and notable works so it is good to see him once again, this time in a new horror/thriller Death and Cremation.
In Crest Point, people go about their day-to-day lives with no sense of urgency and standard stereotypes abound. There's the high school bully with the popular girlfriend. The single mother raising her son after her husband has died. The detective who's never cracked a big case. Then there's Stan (Brad Dourif), a single 59 year old recluse who contributes to society by offering cremation services from the basement of his funeral home. Jarod Leary (Jeremy Sumpter), a bullied and fatherless 17-year-old high school outcast doesn't even try to fit in with his high school peers. Dressed in black,...

This is a first look at Death and Cremation starring Brad Dourif (Chain Letter), Jeremy Sumpter, Scott Elrod (Hellhounds) and Daniel Baldwin (Nine Dead). The film involves bullies and an in-home cremation service. Use your imagination and guess what happens next. The film will premiere in June, with locations dates to be announced. As well, a synopsis for the film, movie poster, and trailer are now available here. Have a look at all the bloody details as an "outcast" turns the tables on others in Death and Cremation (Death).
The synopsis for Death and Cremation here:
"In a typical American suburb filled with middle class morals, a lonely 59-year-old, Stan, contributes to society by offering cremation services from his basement. In fact, Stan murders neighbors he perceives to be social bullies. Jarod, a fatherless 17-year-old high school outcast, lands an after-school job in Stan's cremation house and the two develop...
