An Australian horror film, "Fragment," which has already seen theatres down under, is releasing the first official trailer and movie poster. Previously known as "Shape," and now "Fragment," this film offers a tale of resurrection and murder. Looking chilling enough to preview "Fragment," will be making its way to North American theatres after distributors are found. Have a look at one of the more mature themed trailers inside.
And special thanks to Ian S. Mcphee who has a given, this horror enthusiast, the heads up on the official "Fragment," website. Additional photos, cast and crew information can be found at the homepage below. As well, a second poster, possibly official, is now up on the "Fragment," website. Check it out.
A synopsis...

This time, however, she is alive and then dead again, like a time loop. But it was basically about falling in love with a dead woman and finding out who...
