American Horror Story: Freak Show Features the Most Terrifying Clown EverFans of "American Horror Story" who suffer from Coulrophobia may want to steer clear... really, really clear... from the upcoming "American Horror Story: Freak Show" as there will be a villain waiting for them to die for!

Series co-creator Ryan Murphy revealed to Entertainment Weekly some truly spooky news: The upcoming fourth season of the hit series will feature a killer clown... and not the kind that the Chiodo brothers set free upon the world in the 80s.

"...I thought it was going to be light, but it’s turning out to be quite terrifyingly dark... it feels much more like the 'Asylum' season. But look — if you have a character named the Clown Killer, it’s going to be dark.”

When asked for confirmation of the villain... “Yes,” confirms Murphy. “The most terrifying clown ever!

Jessica Lange, Denis O'Hare, Emma Roberts, Gabourey Sidibe, Jamie Brewer, Evan Peters, Kathy Bates, Sarah Paulson, Angela Bassett, Frances Conroy, and Michael Chiklis will star.

Legendary and Michael Dougherty Ready to Tackle the Krampus

Legendary and Michael Dougherty Ready to Tackle the KrampusWith Trick 'r Treat, director Michael Dougherty forever left his mark on the Halloween season by delivering what is arguably the perfect Halloween-themed anthology film. So now the question beckons... can he do the same for Christmas? Read on for details.

Deadline is reporting that Legendary has closed a deal for Dougherty to co-write and direct Krampus, a twisted horror comedy set around the Christmas holiday that’s co-written by Todd Casey and Zach Shields.

Based on an ancient legend about a pagan demon who punishes the wicked, Krampus is similar in style to Dougherty’s cult hit Trick 'r Treat. Dougherty also co-wrote X2, the second installment of the X-Men franchise, and Superman Returns. He’s also working on a sequel to Trick 'r Treat. That is also at Legendary.

The dark ancient origins of our holidays have always fascinated me,” Dougherty said. “I’ve been drawing twisted Christmas cards for well over a decade so it only made sense to bring some of that morbid yuletide fun to the big screen, and Krampus was the perfect mythology to do that. Christmas has been invading Halloween for far too long. It’s time to return the favor.

Amen.

Freddie Highmore and Others Round Out Cast of Oscar Wilde's The Canterville Ghost

Freddie Highmore and Others Round Out Cast of Oscar Wilde's The Canterville GhostOriginally published way back in 1887, Oscar Wilde's short story "The Canterville Ghost" is headed to the big screen once more, this time receiving an animated adaptation. Read on for the latest casting news!

From the Press Release
Content announced today that Academy Award® nominee Imelda Staunton (MALEFICENT, VERA DRAKE), Freddie Highmore ("BATES MOTEL," CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY), Miranda Hart (MIRANDA, CALL THE MIDWIFE), and Toby Jones (CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, THE HUNGER GAMES) have joined the voice cast of Kim Burdon's Oscar Wilde’s THE CANTERVILLE GHOST featuring two-time Golden Globe winner Hugh Laurie ("HOUSE MD") and Golden Globe nominee Stephen Fry (THE HOBBIT PARTS 2 and 3, SHERLOCK HOLMES: GAME OF SHADOWS).

Giles New and Keiron Self are adapting the classic Oscar Wilde story. The animated film is produced by Robert Chandler and Gina Carter. Content will be handling worldwide sales starting at the Cannes market this month.

Currently in pre-production, the animated comedy follows the story of Sir Simon de Canterville, who has been haunting his ancestral home in rural England, Canterville Chase, for over three hundred years. He has successfully scared off every previous tenant with ease and aplomb, up until the Otis family from America moves in.

Stephen Fry, who stars as the famous ghost, remarked “I’m excited as a little child to be playing in Oscar Wilde's hilarious and touching ghost story/romance/comedy - especially as it will mean working again with Hugh Laurie after all these years. The standard and style of the animation will be astounding and the voice talent unmatched in what I am certain will be, the cliché is unavoidable, an unmissable experience for all the family."

Content's Jamie Carmichael said, “Take one bone-rattling CANTERVILLE GHOST, add a dollop of Fry, a slice of Laurie, and the result is pure, perfect, hilarious magic. Robert, Gina, and Kim have created an extraordinarily wonderful world; and Content is thrilled to be a part of it.”

Producers Robert Chandler and Gina Carter commented, “'The Canterville Ghost' has been made as a live-action feature over the years with such actors as Sir John Gielgud, Charles Laughton, and David Niven playing the famous ghost, but it has never been made as an animated movie. The animation allows us to emphasize the comedy and the epic qualities of Sir Simon’s journey. The hauntings will be magnificently visual, the humor laugh-out-loud, the love story at its centre deeply moving.”

Get Your First Look at the Townsfolk in Wayward Pines

Get Your First Look at the Townsfolk in Wayward PinesIt's been awhile since we've gotten an update on Fox's "Wayward Pines," which is produced by M. Night Shyamalan, but the network has set up a website for the show and released a slew of cast photos along with an expanded synopsis. Dig in!

Synopsis:
Imagine the perfect American town... beautiful homes, manicured lawns, children playing safely in the streets. Now imagine never being able to leave. You have no communication with the outside world. You think you're going insane. You must be in Wayward Pines.

Based on the best-selling novel Pines by Blake Crouch and brought to life by suspenseful storyteller M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense, Signs), "WAYWARD PINES" is the intense new mind-bending event thriller evocative of the classic cult hit “Twin Peaks.”

Secret Service Agent ETHAN BURKE (Academy Award nominee Matt Dillon; Crash, City of Ghosts) drives to the bucolic town of Wayward Pines, ID, searching for two missing federal agents. Ethan is the logical choice for the mission. He's one of the best Secret Service agents in the Seattle office. He's also the man who knew missing agent KATE HEWSON (Carla Gugino; Watchmen, “Entourage”) better than anyone. They were partners. They were more than that. Their relationship nearly destroyed Ethan's marriage.

Everything changes when a truck slams into his car and he wakes up in the Wayward Pines Hospital, with the intense and unpredictable NURSE PAM (Academy Award and Emmy Award winner Melissa Leo; The Fighter, “Treme”) at his bedside. It soon appears that Pam may be more interested in harming than healing. She and Ethan grow into deadly rivals, and her role in the town proves much deeper than anyone realizes.

As the mysteries within the town pile up and clash with his own version of recent events, Ethan starts to question his own sanity. He is confronted by the mysterious and charismatic DR. JENKINS (Emmy Award nominee Toby Jones; The Girl, the Harry Potter franchise, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy), the psychiatrist who treats him at Wayward Pines Hospital. As he begins to meet some of the local residents, including toymaker HAROLD BALLINGER (Reed Diamond; “24,” Much Ado About Nothing), Ethan forms a bond with BEVERLY (Academy Award and Emmy Award nominee Juliette Lewis; Hysterical Blindness, Cape Fear), a bartender who doesn't mince words and is as wary of Wayward Pines as he is.

Back home in Seattle, Ethan's wife, THERESA BURKE (Shannyn Sossamon; 40 Days and 40 Nights, “How to Make It in America”), a former Secret Service Agent trainee, gets a call from Ethan's boss, ADAM HASSLER (Tim Griffin; “Prime Suspect”). He informs her that early testing shows Ethan was never in the car that was recovered on the side of the road outside of Wayward Pines. They're still investigating. But this isn't enough for Theresa. Along with their teenage son, BEN (Charlie Tahan; The Harvest, Charlie St. Cloud), Theresa sets out on her own search for Ethan.

Meanwhile, Ethan is challenged at every turn by the town's die-hard residents and especially the town's sheriff, SHERIFF ARNOLD POPE (Academy Award nominee Terrence Howard; Crash, Hustle & Flow), who takes offense at a Secret Service agent showing up on his turf and telling him what to do. Ethan believes Pope is out of his mind and visa versa. Ethan's continuing investigation only turns up more and more questions, and each one leads him to the most important question of all: What's wrong with Wayward Pines?

"WAYWARD PINES" is a production of FX Productions. The series is created by Chad Hodge (“The Playboy Club,” “Runaway”) and executive produced by M. Night Shyamalan, Hodge, Donald De Line (Green Lantern, The Italian Job), and Ashwin Rajan (After Earth). Hodge wrote and Shyamalan directed the premiere episode.

We should have more info on the "Wayward Pines" premiere date soon. In the meantime keep your eyes on "Wayward Pines" on Fox.com.

Upcoming Documentary Asks the Question WHY Horror? at CannesWhat is it about horror that we love so much? Why are we so into being terrified and seeing innocent people killed in the most brutal ways? Have you ever pondered these questions? Longtime fan Tal Zimerman has, and he's made a documentary that sets out to answer them.

Screen Daily reports that WTFilms will be bringing Zimerman's documentary WHY Horror?, which delves into the psychology of horror around the world, to Cannes. Among the interviewed subjects are names like George Romero and John Carpenter as well as Eli Roth, Alexandre Aja, Alex de la Iglesia, Ben Wheatley, Simon Barrett, Takashi Shimizu, Don Coscarelli, and Nicolas Lopez.

"For us who are fans of horror films and are dedicated to selling them, this is a dream come true," said WTFilms co-founder Gregory Chambet. "It’s fascinating to see that people from any country or gender are horror lovers and that scary movies translate the same everywhere. This is a love letter to genre, and it couldn’t be more fitting for WTFilms."

WTFilms will premiere a promo and 15 minutes of footage in Cannes.

In the meantime, check out the trailer for the doc below, and you'll find more clips over on the WHY Horror? YouTube channel. For more info visit the official WHY Horror? website, "like"WHY Horror? on Facebook, and follow WHY Horror? on Twitter.

Someone Wants a Sequel to The Haunting of Molly Hartley? Really?!?

Someone Wants a Sequel to The Haunting of Molly Hartley? Really?!?We live in a world in which pointless sequels are thrown at us like balls being hurled at an annoying clown in a dunking tank. Yes, that's a given, but sometimes even we have to wonder just what in the world goes through people's minds.

Bloody Disgusting is reporting that Fox Home Entertainment is moving on a sequel to the 2008 teen-friendly snoozer The Haunting of Molly Hartley. The new film, entitled, The Exorcism of Molly Hartley, will see I Spit on Your Grave's Steven R. Monroe taking on directing duties.

Haley Bennett played Molly in the first film. No word on if she’ll return.

Here's our hope... Steven R. Monroe. Please take this to the darkest, most ghastly and horrific place possible. We love you... love us back!

Apparently the sequel follows Molly Hartley, who, after a night of heavy partying, finds her friends butchered. While locked in a mental hospital for observation, she becomes possessed by a demon. Her fellow inmate, a defrocked priest named Father John Barrow, hopes to save her.

Matt Venne (Leprechaun: Origins, White Noise 2: The Light, Fright Night 2, Mirrors 2) penned the screenplay for the direct-to-VOD sequel that begins shooting this summer in Winnipeg.

As the backpackers flee, Mick pursues them on an epic white-knuckled rampage across hostile wasteland. Only one will remain to be dragged back to his lair to witness the true magnitude of his monstrosity. And if the last man standing is to have any hope of surviving where no one else has survived before, he’ll have to use every ounce of cunning to outwit the man behind the monster and become every bit as ruthless as the monster inside the man.

Happy Mother's Day from Zack Parker's ProxyWe've been following filmmaker Zack Parker's career for several years here at Dread Central, and we're pleased that his latest, Proxy (review), is such a winner. Also a winner is this new video released for the flick that wishes us all a Happy Mother's Day!

Proxy is now playing in select theaters and on VOD from IFC Films. Alexia Rasmussen, Alexa Havins, Kristina Klebe, and Joe Swanberg star.

Synopsis:
A very pregnant Esther Woodhouse (Rasmussen) is walking home after her latest OB appointment when she is brutally attacked and disfigured by a hooded assailant. When Esther seeks consolation in a support group, she finds friendship and empathy in Melanie (Havins), another mother scarred with tragedy. Esther soon begins to believe that the horrific event might be a bittersweet act of fate. However, friendship and empathy can be very dangerous things when accepted by the wrong people.

Proxy is a European-style suspense-thriller that promises to challenge the traditional cinematic form. Parker has reunited with The Newton Brothers to compose the score as well as Jim Timperman as Director of Photography to lens the film. A notable addition to Parker’s crew is seasoned Special F/X Make-Up Artist James Ojala. Proxy was shot on location in Eastern Indiana.

This time there's no rage virus required.

Bloody Disgusting is reporting that they're hearing rumblings out of Cannes that Fresnadillo is set to direct a new zombie for 20th Century Fox tentatively entitled The Zombie Underworld.

New Alien: Isolation Video Explores the Importance of a Good Cast!When this job came across my desk, I read the case history. I know why you’ve been working in the region where she went missing. You’re still looking, aren’t you?” – says Samuels from Weyland-Yutani to the daughter of Ellen Ripley.

Pretty powerful stuff, and to pull it off, Sega needs a skilled cast for Alien: Isolation. Check out this new video on that very topic!

15 years after the Weyland-Yutani vessel, Nostromo, went missing, Amanda is still looking for answers as to what happened to the ship… and her mother. Now an employee of the company, she discovers the flight recorder has been found and taken to Sevastopol, a decommissioned trading port on the fringes of space. Falling apart and barely operational, the station has a dwindling population that scavenges resources from the little that remains, doing what it can to survive each other and the ever present deadly threat of the Alien.

Alien: Isolation is a first-person survival horror game capturing the fear and tension evoked by Ridley Scott’s 1979 classic film. Players find themselves in an atmosphere of constant dread and mortal danger as an unpredictable, ruthless Xenomorph is stalking and killing deep in the shadows. Underpowered and underprepared, you must scavenge resources, improvise solutions and use your wits, not just to succeed in your mission, but to simply stay alive.

Alien: Isolation will be available from October 7, 2014, for Xbox One, PS4, Windows PC, Xbox 360, and PS3.

Night of the Living Dead: Origins Shambles to Cannes

Night of the Living Dead: Origins Shambles to CannesNight of the Living Dead: Origins has been shambling around for a few years now, and it will just not stay dead! The next stop for this 3D animated retelling of the George A. Romero classic is Cannes, and we have new stills and more for ya!

From the Press Release
With a seemingly unquenchable appetite for zombie movies, movie-goers will get their fill in 2014 with Night of the Living Dead: Origins 3D, a 3D animated reboot of the original 1968 horror classic.

The film features visual effects from The Graphic Film Company, Los Angeles, which relied on the iPi Soft iPi Motion Capture markerless motion capture software solution. The software’s ability to easily create massive amounts of zombie action and seamlessly integrate it with the studio’s complex workflow provided the filmmakers limitless creative freedom.

“There are a scant few examples of animated horror films, let alone ones that honor a classic like Night of the Living Dead, but this project is very special,” Michael Nikonov, iPi Soft's Chief Technology Architect says. "The fact that most of the film features motion capture, with a substantial amount created using iPi Motion Capture, stands as the best evidence our motion capture solution accelerates creativity easily and affordably."

Produced by noted Hollywood filmmaker Simon West (The Expendables 2, Con Air, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider) and Jib Polhemus and directed by Krisztian Majdik and Zebediah De Soto, Night of the Living Dead: 3D Origins is a 3D animated (rarely seen in the R-rated horror genre) retelling of the 1968 George Romero-directed zombie classic.

The highly stylized film, with a look somewhere between 3D animation and a graphic novel, centers on a group of desperate survivors fighting to stay alive barricaded in an abandoned apartment building. Confined, cut off from the world, and under constant attack from the undead hordes closing in around them, the six main characters struggle to survive while also confronting their own sense of compassion and humanity.

Night of the Living Dead: Origins 3D is premiering at the Cannes Film Festival on May 16. It is scheduled for theatrical release in fall 2014.
