Star Vehicle (re-titled in North America as Bleading Lady) is a 2010 horror film written and directed by Ryan Nicholson and starring Dan Ellis, Sindy Faraguna, Nathan Durec and Nick Windebank.
The film tells the tale of frustrated Teamster driver Don Cardini, abused by spoiled stars and arrogant students, who becomes a ticking time-bomb of revenge. As Don goes on the rampage, his favourite scream queen, Riversa Red, finds herself up for a new role in the greatest gorefest of all: real life.
Ryan Nicholson produced Star Vehicle / Bleading Lady via Plotdigger Films company. Michelle Grady and Nicholson produce the flick for New Image Entertainment.
Zombi's Steve Moore scored the soundtrack for the film under the pseudonym Gianni Rossi. This is the second Moore soundtrack for a Nicholson film, the first being Gutterballs.
Star Vehicle was released in censored form in Europe in the fall of 2010. An uncut North American release under the title Bleading Lady is scheduled for March 2011.
