Brittany Murphy's Deadline Art Pulled By Rental Outlet

Well, it was just a matter of time. In fact, we were talking about this very subject during the latest Dinner for Friends (coming soon). For those of you not paying attention, the latest movie starring the late Brittany Murphy, Deadline (review here), which features cover art of the young actress eerily laying dead in a bathtub, has been yanked by one rental outlet.

RIP Brittany Murphy

Death, no matter how it comes, is always tragic on some level. But it's most tragic when it strikes down those who are still on the young side of the fence. It's with a good deal of both sadness and shock that we report the passing of Brittany Murphy.

Trailer and Release Info - Deadline

Two news stories with Brittany Murphy here on Dread in two days? Never mind what the Mayans had to say ... this is a sign of the apocalypse. Quick, someone call Cusack!

The Trailer from Across the Hall

Here at the Dread Central offices you can hear any number of things reverberating across the halls. Mainly it's the Foywonder laughing maniacally about setting me on fire again during a heated match in Left 4 Dead, but today it's something completely different.

MegaFault Trailer Debuts Online

Not sure why Foy hasn't sent over a story on this yet, but in the interest of getting it in front of our readers' eyes asap, we're dropping everything to present, courtesy of The Asylum, MegaFault, the studio's very first original production for the Syfy network.

It's a Wrap for Something Wicked

Eugene, Oregon-based production company Merchant Films has wrapped filming of its sophomore feature, Something Wicked, and at the same time shared a slew of production stills and behind-the-scenes photos on the Facebook page of its Follow a Film social marketing campaign.

Something Wicked Coming from Merchant Films

It seems to me that suspense is in danger of becoming something of a lost art in modern American horror. Sure there have been exceptions, but too many recent films fail to realize their true potential when it comes to lingering and unrelenting tension.

Birch, Murphy & Blanchard Face Deadline

Is it wrong to be so attracted to Thora Birch? I mean really, really attracted? Not to the point of stalking or anything, but close ... I’ll take your silence to mean that no, it is not wrong. Moving on!
