With a new English (originally it was called ‘Underground’) title under its belt, a first trailer has surfaced for Tinieblas Gonzalez's upcoming Spanish horror Asd: Alma Sin Dueno (aka 'A Soul Disowned'), and it's all looking very promising so far. His feature film debut, Gonzalez earlier works include a series of shorts and a gothic adaptation of Edgar Allen Poe's 'The Raven Nevermore.' Written by Gonzalez, Koldo Serra (Backwoods) and Txabier Alastruey, Asd is set in a labyrinth of subway tunnels and although it’s a Spanish production, the movie is actually being shot in English with Brendan Coughlin, Francia Raisa, Doug Haley and Deance Wyatt starring. Still in post production, the pic is due out in the new year.
