Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant hits the big screen and M&C’s giving away prize packs
Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistan is a fantasy-adventure about a teenager who unknowingly breaks a 200-year-old truce between two warring factions of vampires. Pulled into a fantastic life of misunderstood sideshow freaks and grotesque creatures of the night, one teen will vanish from the safety of a boring existence and fulfill his destiny in a place drawn from nightmares.
16-year-old Darren (Chris Massoglia) was like most kids in his suburban neighborhood. He hung out with his best friend Steve (Josh Hutcherson), got decent grades and usually stayed out of trouble.
But when he and his buddy stumble upon a traveling freak show, things begin to change inside Darren. That’s the exact moment when a vampire named Larten Crepsley (John C. Reilly) turns him into something, well, bloodthirsty.
Newly undead, he joins the Cirque Du Freak, a touring sideshow filled with monstrous creatures from a snakeboy and a wolfman to a bearded lady (Salma Hayek) and a gigantic barker (Ken Watanabe).
As Darren flexes his newfound powers in this dark world, he becomes a treasured pawn between the vampires and their deadlier counterparts. And while trying to survive, one boy will struggle to keep their brewing war from devouring what’s left of his humanity.
Universal Pictures is also getting fans in the mood with a free new iPhone application for Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant. The iFreak app allows you to turn yourself and your friends into one of the many freaks featured in the film!
Use the app to take a photo (or select one from your album) and transform into the bearded lady Madame Truska, Loafhead, Gertha Teeth, Mr. Tiny, Mr. Tall, Wolfman, Rhamus Two-Bellies, Evra Von, and Larten Crepsley. You can even mix and match characters and add endless features until you are completely satisfied. If you change your mind, just double-tap a feature and it will disappear.
Once you’re a freak both inside and out, you can give it a name, save it to your iPhone, email, or share your new identity on Facebook. Your friends will never look at you the same again!
The new iFreak app also includes a gallery of photos from the film, as well as the official trailer.
Visit the film’s official website for more information.
