AFM: Brad Furman Sets Bret Easton Ellis' Bait

More news coming out of AFM today, this time concerning the latest Bret Easton Ellis adaptation, Bait, for Myriad Pictures. We've even scored you some sales art too! We're good like that!

AFM: Conor McMahon To Introduce Us to The Disturbed

One film that's got us giddy that's being shopped at AFM as we speak is Conor McMahon's The Disturbed. McMahon, as you may recall, was the man who brought us the way above average zombie opus Dead Meat, and this flick marks his return to our genre!

Good News for Comedown

A short while back we told you about a promising slasher flick coming out of the U.K., Comedown. Today we have some good news for the fledgling production, which is taking shape nicely.

A Comedown on Trespassers

I guess I go against the grain when I say that I prefer to like most of the characters in a slasher flick. I’ve never been of the mind that you should root for the killer (the kills can still be fun/surprising without watching a collection of degenerates), and I’ll be curious to see how the recently announced Comedown goes about itself. After all, a story about a psychopath targeting trespassers could certainly go either way...

The Human Centipede (First Sequence) Clip

One film causing one hell of a stir on the festival circuit is a bizarre little experience known as >The Human Centipede (First Sequence) (review here). Why, you ask? Shit, man, isn't the title alone enough to get you wondering? You still need more?!? Well then! How about a clip?

Watch the Trailer for Uwe Boll's Rampage or He'll Kill You!

I can't help but get the feeling Uwe Boll needs a hug. He seems very angry and lately has been making movies that reflect that anger, that utter contempt for society, that deep down urge to destroy everyone and everything. He uncorked his rage in a serious manner with Seed and then comically so with Postal. His latest, Rampage, is shaping up to be the film that replaces The Basketball Diaries as the spree shooter movie manifesto.

Dread Lands as Part of the After Dark HorrorFest

Anthony DiBlasi's adaptation of Clive Barker's Dread (review here) is quickly gaining steam as a true fan favorite during its festival run and now it appears that the flick will also get its due at the years biggest horror film festival.

Dread (2009)

Reviewed by Paul McCannibal Starring Jackson Rathbone, Shaun Evans, Hanne Steen, Laura Donnelly, Jonathan Readwin Directed by Anthony DiBlasi A case study in fear could be used in a positive way. You could set up a camera and get a bunch of people to tell you what it is that really fills them with dread, that one thing that happened in their lives that gave them so much trauma that it hangs around their neck like an albatross.

Obsessed with Ali Larter?

It's been a while since we've experienced some good old fashioned fatal attraction (my one night fling with Jaspar the Wonder Donkey and its trainer down in Mexico doesn't count), and Sony Pictures is ready to unleash its new thriller Obsessed to fill that void.

Screen Gems Finds Terror Within

The folks we have taking care of our kids have played a bit of a dual role in our favorite horror flicks. Some are born to be stalked, and others? Well, others do the stalking.

Get Ready for a New Obsession

Do you remember a little film from 1949 called Obsession that was rife with murder, lust, and mayhem? No? I didn't think so. Still, that's not stopping Hollywood from remaking it!
