Make Room for I, Frankenstein in Your Home Video CollectionA few short months after failing to impress the majority of horror fans, the action-packed I, Frankenstein heads home with multiple means of consumption. Read on for full details!

    DVD and Blu-ray Release Allows You to Escape from TomorrowOne of the most talked about films from last year was Randy Moore's nightmarish Escape from Tomorrow (review), which was covertly filmed at Disney World. Next month you'll finally be able to see it for yourself. Read on for complete details!

    From the Press Release
    Featured in IndieWire’s top 5 first features of 2013, and called “a cult classic in the making” (Salon), Escape from Tomorrow comes to DVD and Blu-Ray April 29 from Cinedigm.

    Unlike any film ever made, the most buzzed about debut at Sundance 2013 enraptured audiences with the fearless methods used by its writer/director Randy Moore along with its compelling take on childhood fantasy gone awry. Secretly shot at two world-famous theme parks, Escape from Tomorrow uses covert techniques that take guerrilla filming to another level, placing it amongst one of the most revolutionary films in history.

    Celebrated by ScreenCrush as one of the best movies of the year and called a “sneakily subversive exercise in low-budget surrealism and anti-corporate satire” (Variety), Escape from Tomorrow takes place in a fantasyland of deliberately crafted childhood dreams. When family man Jim vacations with his wife and children, he is invaded by nightmares in the guise of princesses, happy theme park rides, and fellow tourists. With a backdrop familiar to all audiences as a setting where fairy tales become real, his world suddenly comes crashing down as these enchanting figures eerily turn into horrific characters threatening his very life.

    Filled with “stunningly beautiful compositions made all the more impressive by the difficult circumstances of the shooting” (Los Angeles Times), Escape from Tomorrow on DVD features exclusive commentary, including one in which Jim recounts his adventure first-hand, along with a fascinating, must-see look at the making of the film.

    Synopsis
    The most provocative film from the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, Escape from Tomorrow should not exist, and yet it does. Like nothing you've ever seen, Randy Moore's directorial debut is a bold and ingenious trip into the happiest place on earth. An epic battle begins when a middle-aged American husband and father of two learns that he has lost his job. Keeping the news from his nagging wife and wound-up children, he packs up the family and embarks on a full day of park hopping amid enchanted castles and fairytale princesses.

    Soon, the manufactured mirth of the fantasyland around him begins to haunt his subconscious. An idyllic family vacation quickly unravels into a surrealist nightmare of paranoid visions, bizarre encounters, and an obsessive pursuit of a pair of sexy teenage Parisians. Chillingly shot in black and white, Escape from Tomorrow dissects the mythology of artificial perfection while subversively attacking our culture's obsession with mass entertainment.

    Next Season of True Detective to Focus on the Occult

    0
    0

    Next Season of True Detective to Focus on the OccultHBO's "True Detective" flirted with being a horror-themed show all season, and one can argue that that's exactly what it was. One thing is certain... last night's season finale would have even the most jaded of Texas Chain Saw Massacre fans drooling. Now, for Season 2, things may be getting a whole lot darker.

    We know two things for sure about the show... each season will be a self-contained story, and Season 1 lead actors Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey won't return.

    So what's next? During an interview with series creator Nic Pizzolatto, HitFix inquired about the direction next season will take.

    "I realize I need to keep being strange. Don't play the next one straight," Pizzolatto said. "This is really early, but I'll tell you [it's about] hard women, bad men, and the secret occult history of the United States transportation system."

    Pizzolatto also went on to say that his prose is typically "populated with rich female characters," so maybe we'll be getting female detectives who will act as "mirrors to reflect some aspect of Rust (McConaughey) or Marty (Harrelson)."

    Stay tuned, kids!

    From the Press Release
    “Who is Mr. Jones?” To some, he is an enigmatic artist with a unique vision of humanity and our place in the spiritual universe. To others, his very name conjures unimaginable primal fears. But for two young people, he will become their worst nightmare...

    From Preferred Film & TV’s Ross M. Dinerstein, the producer of the Sundance Film Festival smash hit The Pact and The Divide, comes Mr. Jones, bowing May 6th on Blu-ray, DVD, and On Demand from Anchor Bay Films. SRP is $26.99 for the Blu-ray and $24.98 for the DVD.

    Having premiered at the prestigious Tribeca Film Festival in 2013, Mr. Jones will also have an exclusive Los Angeles limited theatrical engagement beginning May 2nd.

    Scott (Jon Foster of Stay Alive) and Penny (Sarah Jones of “Sons of Anarchy”) just moved to a remote cabin to escape the pressures of the world and breathe new life into their art. But they’ll soon discover they are not alone: An infamously reclusive artist - known only as "Mr. Jones" - lives nearby. He doesn’t like to be disturbed and only comes out at night when he drags his strange, sinister sculptures deep into the woods. When Scott and Penny’s curiosity leads them too close for Mr. Jones’ comfort, he plunges the young couple into a nightmare world of mayhem, madness, and mind-bending terror.

    The Devil's Knot Untied in New Trailer

    The Devil's Knot Untied in New TrailerImage Entertainment is bringing The Devil's Knot to us on May 9th, and right now we have the full trailer for you cats with a penchant for true crime cases. Lord knows they rarely come as compelling as the story surrounding the West Memphis 3.

    Synopsis:
    From Academy Award nominated director Atom Egoyan (The Sweet Hereafter) and starring Academy Award winner Colin Firth (The King's Speech) and Academy Award winner Reese Witherspoon (Walk the Line), comes the true story of a crime that would grip a nation for almost two decades and that continues to be one of the most high-profile trials of all time. Based on the bestseller by Mara Leveritt, DEVIL'S KNOT recounts the trial and conviction of teenagers Damien Echols; Jessie Misskelley, Jr.; and Jason Baldwin in the savage murder of three 8-year-old boys in the small town of West Memphis, Arkansas, in 1993.

    Dubbed the so-called "West Memphis Three," the defendants, each of them a social outsider, quickly found themselves up against a community crying out for justice as well as a lack of physical evidence that led police to believe the murders were carried out as part of a satanic occult ritual. Firth stars as Ron Lax in the film, a local private investigator and one of the first people to support the teens in their defense. Witherspoon plays Pam Hobbs, the mother of one of the murdered boys. Together, they allow an uncompromising look at both sides of a town that was torn apart… and will probably never be the same again.

    Road Trip of the Dead Bringing New Horrors to Monroeville Mall

    Road Trip of the Dead Bringing New Horrors to Monroeville MallEveryone is familiar with the legendary Monroeville Mall, and we know the Pittsburgh area is basically ground zero for the creation of the modern day zombie. Director William Sanders is taking the nostalgic love horror fans have for the area and bringing a whole new nightmare there.

    Sanders and his writing and producing partner, Kevin Kriess, have attached Tom Savini to star in their upcoming film, Road Trip of the Dead, which will be shot in several of our favorite horror sites around the Steel City.

    They currently have a Road Trip of the Dead Indiegogo campaign launched that you can check out if you want to contribute. There are some really cool perks available to contributors, including authentic pieces of the original elevator and escalator from JCPenney used in the filming of Dawn of the Dead.

    For more info "like"Road Trip of the Dead on Facebook and follow Evans City Productions on Twitter (@EvansCityProd).

    From the Press Release
    We are in pre-production of a reality-based horror film, Road Trip of the Dead, in the Pittsburgh, Monroeville and Evans City/Cranberry area. Our film stars celebrity and effects artist Tom Savini (Dawn of the Dead, From Dusk Till Dawn and Django Unchained) and Gary Streiner (Night of the Living Dead).

    Our film centers around a group of friends (fans of George Romero films) that are attempting to complete a documentary about filming locations of Romero films in and around Pittsburgh. The friends set out on the tour not knowing the horror they love is about to become a reality.

    This is NOT a zombie film, but a reality-based slasher, horror-fiction tale.

    This film will not only be an entertaining tale but will also be combined with documentary style information on filming locations of classic Pittsburgh films. Ninety percent of all locations used in our film will have been in other films. Think of them as location cameos, so fans will not only get cameos from stars like Gary Streiner, but they will get to see great locations like the Monroeville Mall (Dawn of the Dead), Evans City Cemetery (Night of the Living Dead) and Wampum Mines (Day of the Dead).

    We need your help to secure funds for production (actors/actresses fees, travel, props, equipment, etc.). We are trying to keep this film as much about Pittsburgh as the fans. In doing so, we have secured product placement from Iron City Beer/Pittsburgh Brewing Company and are working with them to help sponsor our project. We are also in talks with Kings Restaurant about filming and sponsorship.

    Fans come to Pittsburgh by the thousands to see Romero filming locations, and these fans are "dying" to see them!

    Wrath Cast Grows; First Artwork RevealedEvil Dead 2 writer Scott Spiegel is hitting horror hard in 2014 with two films on their way: Zombie Wedding and Wrath. Speaking of the latter, we now have some casting news and even some early artwork.

    From the Press Release
    In September of 2013, it was announced that Scott Spiegel (Intruder, Evil Dead 2, Hostel III) would be returning to the director’s chair for the upcoming feature film WRATH. The Spiegel/Andrea A. Albin-owned Fatality Films has released the concept art for the film.

    Also, actors Vernon Wells (pictured; Commando, Mad Max 2, Weird Science) and Timothy Patrick Quill (Army of Darkness, Oz the Great and Powerful) have signed on to join the cast.

    An horrific murder that took place over two hundred years ago gives birth to a vengeful creature, The Easter Witch, who returns to exact revenge on the unsuspecting locals of a California coastal town in the mid-1980s.

    The town of Emerald Beach holds a secret, a secret that the town’s troubled inhabitants have kept since 1736. Told as a local legend to the town’s children, the words echo on the night air as a caution.

    “Run on home. Heed the warning. Don’t come out till early morning.”

    But now, in 1986, on the eve of Swedish Easter, brothers Colton and Reid Bergstrom will come face to face with this chilling secret. As night falls over Emerald Beach, Colton and Reid must run for their lives and survive until dawn as a terrifying and ravenous creature known as The Easter Witch begins an unstoppable hunt for the brothers, stalking them at every deadly turn.

    Pre-Production Begins on Ruthless Pictures' The Device

    Pre-Production Begins on Ruthless Pictures' The DeviceThe dudes behind recently released thriller The Invoking are hard at work on an alien abduction flick called The Device, which is housed under the quickly growing indie banner Ruthless Pictures. Read on for all the extraterrestrial details!

    From the Press Release
    Ruthless Pictures is in pre-production on the psychological thriller The Device, set to start filming at the end of March 2014. Written by Jeremy Berg and John Portanova, the film will be directed by Jeremy Berg and produced by Matt Medisch, the team behind the critically acclaimed thriller The Invoking, available now on DVD.

    Exec produced by Jesse Baget under his Ruthless Pictures banner, The Device follows Abby and Rebecca Powell, who haven’t seen each other since a traumatic event in their youth ripped them apart. Reunited for the first time in over a decade, the sisters take a trip to spread their mother’s ashes at a secluded lake. As the sisters reconnect and try to heal old wounds, something waits in the nearby woods. A strange object, made not by the hands of man, beckons them to it. As they begin to try to unlock its secrets, Abby is plagued by nightmares of an alien presence that seem all too real. Little do the sisters realize that this object is actually a device, one with a purpose too horrible to comprehend. As the events of the past and the present begin to merge, new discoveries will threaten to tear apart their newly reformed family, and the inhuman creators of the device will attempt to finish a terrible experiment begun years before.

    Of the project, director Berg says, "I'm very excited to be able to bring a story like this to life. Alien abduction has been a fascination of mine since I was a kid, and I've known many people with encounter stories. I grew up listening to these stories, and for me the existence of aliens has never been in doubt. The October People have created what I think is a great character-driven story to help explore the idea of alien abduction and its effects on individuals and their relationships. It's a thought-provoking story that will also leave audiences frightened of what might lurk in the night skies above."

    Writer/producer Portanova believes, "There is no scarier horror scenario to me than an alien abduction. The idea that at any point in your life these creatures can appear and bend you completely to their will and there is nothing you can do about it frightens me to the core. I grew up on alien abduction films such as Intruders and Fire in the Sky and paranormal investigation shows like 'Unsolved Mysteries.' It's been a lifelong ambition of mine to tell an alien abduction horror story, and I am very excited that The October People are reteaming with Ruthless Pictures to bring it to life."

    Ruthless Pictures is also currently in production on Damien Leone’s creature-clash blood-fest Frankenstein vs. the Mummy and the horror Werewolf Rises directed by BC Furtney.

    Bryan Cranston Discovers a New Godzilla ImageEvery time I look at anything from Legendary Pictures' upcoming take on Godzilla, only one question comes to mind: IS IT MAY YET? I know.... we've still got a wait ahead of us. For now, however, dig on this new still!

    In theaters May 16, 2014, an epic rebirth to Toho’s iconic Godzilla, this spectacular adventure pits the world’s most famous monster against malevolent creatures who, bolstered by humanity’s scientific arrogance, threaten our very existence.

    Making his first appearance in 1954 (Gojira), Godzilla is a giant monster that lives in the sea that comes from the ocean to feed on mankind.

    Speak Up and Let Warner Bros. Know You Want to See Classic Hammer Horror Titles on Blu-rayIt's not often we get to shout out and let our voices be heard, but Diabolique Magazine and DVD Drive-in have started a petition to help us do just that. If you're a fan of classic Hammer Horror films and want to see them on Blu-ray, read on. Your signature is desired.

    Diabolique Magazine and DVD Drive-in have created a petition to help prove to Warner Bros. that there is indeed a demand for Hammer Horror titles on Blu-ray, and the group has confirmation that the page is currently being watched by WB so they want to deliver an impressive amount of digital John Hancocks.

    If you'd like to help out, simply follow this link to the Diabolique website petition page and sign on the dotted line. In addition to the petition, there's tons of information as to why the group feels so strongly about the Hammer films and some cool information on the seven titles as well.

    The seven titles Warner Bros. holds the rights to are: Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed, Dracula Has Risen from the Grave, Dracula A.D., Taste the Blood of Dracula, Horror of Dracula, The Curse of Frankenstein and The Mummy.

    Monstrous New Stills From Harbinger Down; Monsterpalooza Panel News!

    Monstrous New Stills From Harbinger DownBack in May of 2013 we told you about Harbinger Down, a tense, claustrophobic creature film that will feature only practical animatronic and makeup effects. Today we have the second set of official images from the movie. Check 'em out!

    Amalgamated Dynamics' Alec Gillis writes and directs.

    Harbinger Down and its co-production with Dark Dunes Productions will be in full force for MONSTERPALOOZA - March 29th and 30th!

    "Join Alec Gillis of Amalgamated Dynamics INC. as he reveals a sneak peek of his first feature length film, HARBINGER DOWN. A fan-favorite amongst Kickstarter, the film, written and directed by Alec Gillis, relies on practical creature and make-up effects, created by studioADI... Executive Producer of HD and its co-production of Dark Dunes Productions', Sultan Saeed Al Darmaki, and Star Lance Henriksen, Alec Gillis, Tom Woodruff, Jr., Camille Balsamo, Reid Collums, Timothy Reed Martin, D.P Benjamin Brown and Suit performer, Mick Ignis - Abominations and Transfigurations among many others from cast and crew."

    "The Harbinger Down panel will begin Sat./March 29th at 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM (FREE) and will be moderated by cast member Matt Winston of Stan Winston School of Character Arts!"

    Synopsis:
    A group of grad students have booked passage on the fishing trawler Harbinger to study the effects of global warming on a pod of Orcas in the Bering Sea. When the ship's crew dredges up a recently thawed piece of old Soviet space wreckage, things get downright deadly. It seems that the Russians experimented with tardigrades, tiny resilient animals able to withstand the extremes of space radiation. The creatures survived, but not without mutation.

    Now the crew is exposed to aggressively mutating organisms. And after being locked in ice for three decades, the creatures aren't about to give up the warmth of human companionship.

    Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff, Jr., are among the most talented and passionate FX men working today, and with Harbinger Down they hope to send a message to Hollywood that there is no substitute for good ol' fashioned practical creatures. And they're taking their approach one step further by hiring the best vets in the business to create models, miniatures and stop-motion techniques to create an experience that feels 100% authentic. How awesome is that?!?
