Dinner for Fiends: Breaking Wind

You hated it, we hated it, and now we can all come together and celebrate the badness that was The Happening (review) the only way we know how; with our throats! Wait, that sounds wrong...

    Dinner for Fiends: The Strangeness

    There are times I try to fool myself and pretend you guys listen to Dinner for Fiends for our insightful commentary on the latest and greatest in horror happenings. Deep down inside, though, I know it's because we're just fucking strange.

    How Bloody is The Happening?

    So, just how gruesome is M. Night Shyamalan's latest flick? Will The Happening be able to satisfy horror fans who have been on torture porn benders for the past couple of years? Oh, I think he has everything sorted out just fine! Check out the two new red-band trailers below!

    UPDATE: It's Happening Beyond the States!

    UPDATEInstead of running an entire new story about it, I've decided to throw in the second international poster for The Happening in here. We found this one over at MPA Awards.

    Happening Clip

    I don’t know about you guys, but I’m really looking forward to seeing what M. Night Shyamalan has in store for us when The Happening is released on Friday, June 13th. For once the ambiguous trailering in which you’re told pretty much nothing is actually working in the film’s favor, at least for me.

    New Happening Trailer Exposes More Details

    A good amount of horror fans out there have probably already guessed correctly about what M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening (official site) will be really about, but for the rest of the folks it is still a mystery.

    Happening, The Press Conference

    Interview by: Nomad Though we’re still under embargo from telling you anything about The Happening, not sure why since all the trades have their reviews up, we can give you a peek behind the curtain... Fox were kind enough to supply us with the audio from the recent Happening press conference in New York, so if you really cannot wait for Friday to see this you can at least listen to M. Night & crew answer questions about what we can expect. Perhaps it will help to level your expectations?
