Jason Blum announced last year that Blumhouse and writer Akiva Goldsman (The Dark Tower) were developing a new adaptation of Stephen King’s Firestarter, which was originally adapted in 1984. We learned that Goldsman would be co-writing the screenplay for the Blumhouse/Universal film with Scott Teems (Rectify), and the project landed a director today. Variety reports that Fatih […]
At CinemaCon back in April, Bad Robot’s J.J. Abrams confirmed that the upcoming Overlord is actually *not* part of the Cloverfield Cinematic Universe, while also teasing a future project under that umbrella. Specifically, Abrams noted that “a dedicated Cloverfield sequel” is in the works, implying a true, from-the-ground-up sequel to the ’08 movie. Speaking with […]
The Russian Bride opens with a beautiful, retro title card featuring bright red script, paired with an eerie violin score, setting the tone for a cinematic haunted house tale of yore. While much of the film upholds the nostalgic sense of darkness and dread found in films like the Universal classics, make no mistake – […]
I love how we barely know anything about Panos Cosmatos’ action-thriller Mandy, which allegedly boasts a scene with a chainsaw-wielding Nicolas Cage. Outside of some reviews and interviews, all we’ve seen are a few shots of Cage covered in blood and that’s all I need to know I must see it as soon as absolutely possible. No matter, we’re getting […]
Stop me if you’ve heard this one: there’s something strange going on at a home for young women. An older priest and a younger priest are called to investigate. After increasingly mounting signs, they discover something demonic at work and must fight back against these evil forces. Oh, and it’s all shot first-person, found footage […]
Blumhouse has given Cinepocalypse the World Premiere of Boogeyman Pop, which takes place tonight at the Music Box Theater in Chicago at 10:15pm (get tickets here). We’ve been provided with the film’s first ever image and poster that are soaked in colors and give off a classic 80’s vibe. Brad Michael Elmore directs the film, which […]
Given its box office success, critical acclaim and the fact that it won a freakin’ Academy Award, it’s probably a guarantee that we’ll eventually be seeing a sequel to Jordan Peele’s Get Out. Peele has a few times in the past year mentioned that he’d probably be up for it, most recently noting back in February […]
Since it opened weeks early overseas, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom has gotten mixed reviews, including Bloody Disgusting’s own. Perhaps as a dinosaur adventure it falls short of Jurassic Park, or even the first Jurassic World. But cut it some slack. Even Steven Spielberg couldn’t maintain the Jurassic Park momentum with The Lost World (although it’s […]
Bloody has the first images and poster art for the indie Monster, from director Matt Shaw, which is based on the Amazon bestselling book of the same name. The feature film is said to be a cross between The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Natural Born Killers that explores the theme of nature versus nurture. “Emily is […]
We love Nicolas Roeg‘s The Witches (1990) here on Bloody Disgusting, Jim Henson‘s final film starring Angelica Huston as a witch intent on turning the world’s children into mice. We explained why it may just be the scariest children’s film ever made, and even revealed that the film quietly holds a rare 100% on Rotten Tomatoes (still!) Now, nearly 30 years […]
