That's right, kids! You can score yourself Outlast and the "Whistleblower" DLC right now for $19.99 and $8.99, respectively. Believe me when I tell you it's worth every single penny and then some!

We hope everyone who downloads Outlast over the coming weeks has a great time exploring the world we’ve built and unraveling the story of Mount Massive Asylum,” said Game Designer and Red Barrels Co-founder Philippe Morin. “I also hope you all are fucking terrified by the experience.

    A Sequel to Haunting Melissa Is on its WayYou may recall us telling you about Haunting Melissa, a popular and chilling digital narrative from Hooked Digital Media that began last year. Now a sequel in on its way, and we have all the info you need!

    From the Press Release
    Hooked Digital Media, a next-generation production company, is pleased to announce that principal photography for the sequel to Haunting Melissa, which has scared more than 5.5 million viewers, is already under way in Calgary, Alberta.

    Haunting Melissa 2 will be available exclusively from the App Store on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch later this year.

    The sequel, designed specifically for a new generation of connected viewers, will continue the story of the first film, which took fans into the world of Melissa, a teenage girl who believes her recently deceased mother is haunting her. This next installment picks up one month after Melissa’s disappearance with her return home.

    “When we first imagined Haunting Melissa, our intention was to create a world that could be endlessly explored on a terrifying and engaging journey with Melissa,” said Neal Edelstein, president, Hooked Digital Media. “The response to Haunting Melissa and our new distribution platform has been overwhelming. With the combined efforts of the creative team at Hooked Digital Media along with the talented cast and crew of Haunting Melissa 2, we’ll continue to push the boundaries of the horror genre using the proprietary distribution and story technology that we have created for Apple devices.”

    Haunting Melissa 2 will harness Hooked Digital Media’s proprietary platform with Dynamic Story Elements (DSE), a patented technology that can change the story upon repeat viewing. The sequel was written specifically for Hooked Digital Media’s platform and will be released exclusively on Apple’s new iOS8.

    The series was conceived, directed, and produced by Neal Edelstein, producer of hits such as The Ring, The Ring 2, and Mulholland Drive. Best-selling author Andrew Klavan (True Crime, Don’t Say A Word) returned to pen Melissa’s new terrifying journey. Haunting Melissa 2 features a cast of talented actors, including the return of Kassia Warshawski as Melissa Strogue, Travis Nelson as Brandon, Barb Mitchell as Katherine Strogue, Greg Lawson as Jack Strogue, Lorette Clow as Dr. Carroway, Larry Reese as Mike Cole, Tom Carey as Officer Roy, Lisa Moreau as Amanda Maynard, and Stefanie Bartlett. Rising star Jenna Berman joins the cast as Emma along with newcomers Megan Tracz and Rohan Campbell.

    First Trailer Takes You to Hatchet CountyLet's address the 800-lb. gorilla in the room... Hatchet County has NOTHING to do with Adam Green's Hatchet franchise. Instead this is a beast of a different kind that's trying to make the same kind of impression.

    Adam Hulin directs for Eldorado Road Productions. Matthew B. Moore, Brett Mullen, and Sky Tilly tackled the story, and the screenplay comes courtesy of Matthew B. Moore.

    Synopsis
    The year is 1869, and Hell has scratched its way into post-Civil War Virginia. Murder's become common talk, and fear crushes the region. With hope and morality slipping from the inhabitants of Hatchet County, they call on a rogue legion of heroes to drive the evil back to where it came.

    Early Details and Teaser Trailer for Dick Johnson & Tommygun vs. The Cannibal Cop

    First Details and Teaser Trailer for Dick Johnson & Tommygun vs. The Cannibal CopFR Productions has released the teaser trailer for its upcoming action horror thriller Dick Johnson & Tommygun vs. The Cannibal Cop, which begins filming in Buffalo, New York, next month. Check it out here along with more details!

    The film was written by John Renna, who will co-star with Sam Qualiana (Snow Shark, The Legend of Six Fingers) as mismatched police detectives hunting the titular cannibal. The cast also includes Debbie Rochon (Dry Bones), Danny Hicks (Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn), and Timothy Patrick Quill (Army of Darkness).

    Renna will co-produce and co-direct with Chris Rados (His Name Is Clownface) of WNY Grip & Lighting.

    “The teaser shows the vibe we’re going for,” says Renna. “A 70s cop film blended with 80s horror and 90s action flicks. Chris will be shooting much of the film since I’ll be on screen most of the time with Sam. We’ve got a really tight unit here in Buffalo and plan to deliver a movie fans of all these subgenres will love.”

    In the film, which purports to be based on a true story, Hicks plays Captain Phil Philips, who assigns straight arrow Dick Johnson (Qualiana) and wild card Jeff “Tommygun” Thompson (Renna) to solve a series of gruesome murders which may lead to the department’s front doorstep. Rochon plays Yvonne, an insider who may hold the secret to the mystery, and Quill plays Shabby Sammy, a shady character who leads the detectives through Buffalo’s criminal underworld.

    Renna, who is also a special make-up effects artist, intends to use squibs for the massive shootout scenes rather than digital blood, and he and Rados intend to track how much red stuff they splatter. When production wraps, they will spearhead a drive to match the same amount of blood for UNYTS Resources in Buffalo. “We’re making this film in our home town and want to do something positive for the community,” says Rados.

    New Dinosaur Prank Causes Hilarious PanicImagine walking along in a park and stumbling across a nest of eggs. You get closer to examine this curious discovery when all of a sudden a rampaging dinosaur comes charging out of the woods ready to gobble you up for disturbing its "kids."

    The below video comes courtest of Jay Lichtenberger and Brian Medeiros, Jr., who comprise the YouTube comedy duo The Prank Bros.

    Lichtenberger and Medeiros teamed up with New York-based KHA Entertainment for their most recent skit, and the results are entertaining to say the least. Seriously, we could watch people shit their pants all day. Well, not literally. That'd be kinda gross. Still though... the screamier, the better.

    Halloween Horror Nights 2014 Pick Your ScareZone Contest - And the Winner Is...

    Halloween Horror Nights, Hollywood - Vote for Your Scare ZoneA couple of weeks ago Universal Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights turned to you, the fans, to help them shape what will be the biggest scare-filled event of the year! You picked your Scare Zone, and the people's choice has been announced!

    From the Press Release
    Online voters said “Bon appetit!” and selected “Mask-a-Raid,” a Scare Zone concept based on a hoard of bloodthirsty cannibals masquerading as French aristocrats, in the first-ever Universal Studios Hollywood “Halloween Horror Nights” Choose Your Scare online voting competition.

    The winning Scare Zone concept will materialize in disturbingly real detail at the terrifyingly popular event in fall 2014.

    “We are always listening closely to what our fans want, but this was the first time ever that we actually went out and put the power completely in their hands to determine part of Halloween Horror Nights’ content,” said John Murdy, Creative Director, Universal Studios Hollywood and Executive Producer of Halloween Horror Nights. “The avalanche of votes we received confirmed our fans’ desire to be part of the process, and we are happy to give them exactly what they want.”

    The new Scare Zone, staged in the theme park’s French Street location, will transport guests to a time when masquerade balls were a staple of the social calendar in pre-Revolutionary War France. However, visitors will soon learn that behind the elaborate, jeweled masks of powdered and perfumed party-goers are members of a bloodthirsty cannibal cult.

    In addition to the new Scare Zone, and after rave reviews from fans, Universal Studios Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights is bringing back AMC’s “The Walking Dead” for an unprecedented third consecutive year. A terrifying maze – “Walking Dead: End of the Line” – and “Terror Tram: Invaded by the Walking Dead” will be inspired by Season 4 of the critically acclaimed, Emmy Award®-winning television series.

    This year’s bone-chilling maze will place guests at the heart of a harrowing journey to seek sanctuary at Terminus, an elusive destination that promises community for all. Meanwhile, “Terror Tram: Invaded by the Walking Dead” will send guests on the road to Terminus, interspersed with landmarks and walkers from Season 4, including the “burned moonshine cabin,” “charred walkers,” and “mud walkers.”

    More info on Halloween Horror Nights is available at Halloween Horror Nights.com. Updates from Creative Director John Murdy can be found on Twitter, as he reveals a running chronicle of exclusive information.

    Exclusive - Robert LaSardo Opens the Doors to the Parlor

    0
    0

    Robert LaSardo Opens the Doors to the ParlorYou know Robert LaSardo; some of you just don't know you know him. If you're a fan of horror or action movies or television, you've seen LaSardo's work, probably multiple times. In the new movie Parlor, LaSardo is finally getting his chance to be the leading man and carry a film.

    He recently sat down with Dread Central to talk about it.

    Although LaSardo has over 100 acting credits on his resume that spans nearly three decades, he's never been the main character in a film.

    "Parlor, the way it was written, with me in mind, represents a renaissance because I was introduced to something that, in the 28 years I've been in entertainment, I've never been introduced to before," LaSardo said. "To stare at 2000 words of dialogue that was written for me, to some extent, and channeled through the writers, Kenny Gage and Devon Downs, was at first a bit overwhelming, but something that I've hungered for for a long time."

    Using a creative process a bit out of the ordinary, the filmmakers Gage and Downs met with LaSardo regularly and the movie cropped up around these sessions. "The way Parlor came about was through a series of conversations I had with the Kenny and Devon," LaSardo said. "They took the time, which is very rare in the Hollywood industry, to actually get to know the artist and sit down and dialogue back and forth. We have a friendship that we've cultivated over the years, and it seemed almost vicarious that there would be something to entertain professionally from the relationship and the sharing of ideas."

    LaSardo continued about the connection between himself and the writers/directors of Parlor. "There are systems of belief without it being fundamental," LaSardo said. "Devon Downs has a few tattoos, and so do I, obviously. And just through that alone we had a lot to talk about. And Kenny, on a certain level, represents the gladiator. He was formerly a boxer. So these meetings of the minds, these meetings of gladiators…we'd have conversations about how we felt about the industry, how we felt about life, any number of things. Just three guys talking and discussing stories that affected us. In time, they found a way to create a story around those conversations, the ideas, the principles, the beliefs, without necessarily being preachy, but it was something they felt that needed to be communicated, and something I had not been allowed, as an artist in Hollywood or in the creative realm, to communicate. I've been kind of limited by the structuring and perception of entertainment. They felt, after speaking with me over time, that it was appropriate, that it was time to communicate many of the things that we had talked about within a fiction, within a story that could bear some intelligence and be very radical in the way it does that."

    LaSardo spoke more on his past career and why he's so excited for Parlor. "I don't know that I've been allowed to communicate on that level," LaSardo said. "There are a lot of lessons in aggression and barbarism I've been asked to communicate and audiences have been affected by that. But I don't know if there's ever been [that] combined with a character that has insight or intelligence, that shows up on the stage in a grey area where you can't really pin him and say, 'He's the bad guy,' or 'He's the good guy.' He's just there and the stage is set in the realm of horror because it is a horror film, so it's up to the audience to decide, based on the content of the story, what he is."

    LaSardo spoke more on his character, simply referred to as "The Artist.""He's an artist; that's the title, Artist, which I like," LaSardo said. "I like it because it evokes the idea of something that's a creative entity as opposed to a character that tears things down, destroys stuff. So he's an artist. He runs a tattoo parlor. We filmed in Vilnius, Lithuania. I think it was very important for Kenny and Devon to authenticate the experiences of the subculture of tattooing. We went to various tattoo shops where I apprenticed and learned a little bit about tattooing so I could live and breathe the character. So he's a tattoo artist. He runs the tattoo parlor. He also comes from a family bloodline of men who have a particular talent and this craft has been passed down through the family bloodline and that's another aspect of The Artist that's not revealed until you see the film and it's also part of something that will be intriguing and also could be bizarre for some people to observe. It all depends on who's looking at it."

    Not only is this film important to LaSardo because of his leading role, but also for his input during the creative process. "I was invited during the early stages to participate and creatively be involved on that level, which is something that's very rare," LaSardo said. "Writers and directors are very guarded about their creations and the actors are kind of the last to know. They're allowed some flexibility within their instrument, but I don't know if they're allowed to affect the piece the way the creator or director envisioned it. In this case, I've been allowed to communicate feelings and suggestions to Kenny and Devon about that process. So, in that sense, I've become very attached to the project."

    And LaSardo wanted to be sure the faith put in him by Gage and Downs did not go without reward. "I've never been allowed to be a lead in a film," LaSardo said. "I've never been allowed to carry a film in my entire career. So it's quite a compliment from Kenny Gage and Devon Downs to me to trust me at the helm of it. In that way also I'm attached to it because I wanted to deliver something, produce or creating and conjure the spirit of the character how they envisioned it or how I envisioned and then collaborate and make impact so when they look at it, they go, 'Wow, we're affected by it. You did it, Rob.' Here's a chance to finally, after all these years. What are you going to do with it when you're finally given that chance to stand up at the plate and hold that bat and stare that ball down? It's like, okay, do or die."

    Finally LaSardo spoke on the unique experience of shooting in Lithuania. "After about a week or so I felt this incredible sense of déjà vu," LaSardo said. "Looking at the old city, ruins, buildings from the 14th Century… someone showed me a brick building where there had been machine gun holes from World War II where the Nazis had come through and shot up the building and it's still the way it was then. The city itself conjured a lot of emotion for me. I felt a sense of belonging there. I have traveled around the world and found that my spirit was waiting for me there. I felt a sense of connection to the landscape itself. There's a mysterious aspect to it because a lot of the city is still preserved since World War II and not touched by the war. That also lends to the spirit that was necessary to communicate this piece that is an allegory and has a mythological aspect to it. So being in the city, walking the streets and the cobblestones and looking at the buildings and looking at a church that was built in the 14th Century, just feeling the vibrations through the brick and then moving on to the movie set, which wasn't even something that was created, it was already there. So a lot of the buildings we shot in on location had this incredible history and spirit to them."

    Although they were from two very different lands, LaSardo felt the two film crews meshed together very nicely. "There was a little bit of a gap between the two cultures, so we had to learn very quickly to work together, the American crew and the Lithuanian crew, and basically complete the film, the goal," LaSardo said. "Once we got in there together, it wasn't necessarily about Americans and Lithuanians; it was about getting deep into the trenches of Parlor and people understanding what we're trying to communicate and how powerful that could be given the subject matter."

    Keep an eye out for Parlor. Coming soon!

    Parlor Synopsis
    The new face of horror! The writing/directing team of Gage/Downs brings you their depraved Lithuanian vision… Parlor. Shocking, disturbing, a fresh new take on the American horror genre, the film follows six young college hopefuls vacationing and partying in Eastern Europe who get more than they bargained for when they unwittingly get caught up in a maniacal tattoo artist's fiendish side business.

  • Legendary Developing Dead Rising Feature Film for Crackle

    Legendary Developing Dead Rising Feature Film for CrackleJust shy of a year after the third installment of Capcom's hit video game franchise Dead Rising hit stores, we've just gotten word that the property is getting a feature film adaptation, which should put a huge smile on the faces of all who dig some good old fashioned undead mayhem.

    Per IGN, Legendary has sold the domestic film rights for Dead Rising to Crackle, marking the first release from Legendary's digital division. The feature film will be exclusively available through the online distributor, followed by an SVOD, DVD, VOD, and TV roll-out.

    Content Media Corporation will distribute the movie in both feature-length and episodic formats for all international platforms.

    Dead Rising takes place during a large-scale zombie outbreak. When a mandatory government vaccine fails to stop the infection from spreading, the four leads must evade infection while also pursuing the root of the epidemic -- with all signs pointing to a government conspiracy. Politics, public paranoia, and media coverage will all play a key role in the movie's story.

    The script will be written by Tim Carter, who will also produce the film alongside Tomas Harlan under their Contradiction Films banner (the same company that produced Mortal Kombat: Legacy). Lorenzo di Bonaventura (Transformers, G.I. Joe) will executive produce.
