Brielle and the Horror Theatrical Trailer
Published March 9, 2010, 10:08 pm in Horror-Movies.ca! Tags:

1:56.. that is how long this trailer lasts, and it's nothing but pure AWESOMENESS!!!  This trailer does everything a trailer is suppose to do and it definately has the deadman hooked.  At the end of this trailer, its says "Coming Summer 2009."  So is this is out already?.. I need to see it now!  If it's not, I need more information on this film. 

Based on the visionary graphic novel by Jordan and Jared Barel and directed by Jared Barel, "Brielle and the Horror" tells the story about a girl who was born possessed by an evil spirit, and has to learn how to control it and make it work for her. Horrible things happened to her when she was young, and the horror emerges once again when she's at a new school.

Now excuse me while I watch the trailer again.. and again.. and again.

Indie Horror - I Didnt Come Here to Die
Published March 9, 2010, 3:55 pm in Horror-Movies.ca! Tags:

"Volunteer work can be a killer."

The above is the tagline for Bradley Scott Sullivan's upcoming indie horror film - “I Didn’t Come Here To Die.”   The film is about a team of young volunteers working on a humanitarian project in the woods. Horrific accidents, rash decisions, and the unpredictability of human nature leads them all to the same disturbing conclusion. 

After watching the trailer, I really dig the "old school" vibe of this film and it also looks the blood flows freely in this bad boy.. I cant wait!  I'm really excited about the upcoming films that are hitting the indie scene, the talent from our very own Lee Vervoort (Gun Town) to RQ Mattoso (Lost in the Pines), and everything in-between shows us that Horror will continue to have a very bright (blood red) future.

On a side note.. good song choice for the trailer.

For more info on the film, be sure to check out their official site, as well as their Facebook page.

Before you watch the trailer, I just have one thing to say:  "VIVA LA INDIE!"

DANS TON SOMMEIL aka In Their Sleep is the next French film that has been circulating online. The main attraction for the film so far has been that Anne Parillaud from La Femme Nikita is starring. I'm not sure what to think of the film just yet based on the trailer but check it out below for yourself. If you happen to live in France check it out in theaters on March 24th.

One year after her teenage son's death, Sarah's life is in pieces. Then late one night, her car accidentally hits Arthur, a young man the same age as her boy, who suddenly emerges out of the forest and onto the road. Wounded and frightened, he is running from a mysterious assailant, hunting him down after Arthur caught him red handed in the act of burglary. Sarah sympathizes with him, taking him in, only to be tracked down by the burglar whose murderous rage towards Arthur forces her to take action. Unbeknownst to Sarah, things aren't quite the way they seem... but by the time she finally realizes, it is too late to turn back...

Felicia Day Hunts Werewolves in Red
Published March 9, 2010, 11:28 am in Horror-Movies.ca! Tags:

If you are a gamer like I am Felicia Day needs no introduction but for those of you who are not she put together her own web series called The Guild. One of the best web series I have ever seen and I think deserves its own TV show. Anyway since her show has been such a huge success she has been able to land several other jobs including an upcoming role in Syfy's Red.

The film is a retelling of the classic fairy tale. Syfy has recently run out of monsters to mix and mash and has began to do a series of films based on fairy tales. Felicia Day will portray a werewolf-hunting descendant of Little Red Riding Hood. The film is schedueled to premiere in 2011.

In Red, Red (Day) brings her fiancé home, where he meets the family and learns about their business - hunting werewolves. He's skeptical until bitten by a werewolf. When her family insists he must be killed, Red tries saving him. Red also stars Kavan Smith (Stargate Atlantis) and Stephen McHattie (Watchmen).

Below you can check out a small comedic music video that Day made for fun with the cast of The Guild.

Seyfried Confirmed for Red Riding Hood
Published March 8, 2010, 11:20 am in Horror-Movies.ca! Tags:

If Warner Bros. has it their way they are looking to try and capture the same popularity that Twilight has with its new film The Girl With the Red Riding Hood. They even went out and got Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke attached. Today ComingSoon is reporting that Amanda Seyfried confirmed her role in the film on the red carpet last night at the Oscars.

Seyfried of course has some experience in the genre having co-starred with Megan Fox in Jennifers Body. This time around of course she would be playing Little Red Riding Hood as she is terrorized by the "big bad wolf", basically a werewolf. The good news regarding the script is that Orphan scribe David Johnson has been working hard the past couple months to iron out the screenplay.

Christa Campbell Joins Drive Angry
Published March 8, 2010, 11:02 am in Horror-Movies.ca! Tags:

The cast for Patrick Lussier's Drive Angry has been an ongoing barrage recently of names. Today STYD reports that mega hottie Christa Campbell will be yet another to star. She will be joining the already announced Nicolas Cage, Tom Atkins, Simona Williams, Charlotte Ross, Billy Burke, David Morse, William Fichtner and Amber Heard.

The film is being shot in 3D from a script by Lussier and Todd Farmer in which a felon named Milton (Cage) goes up against a group of vicious cult fanatics who not only murdered his daughter, but plan to sacrifice his infant granddaughter beneath a full moon. Armed with his turbo-charged Black '71 Challenger, there's going to be some hell to pay.

Currently they are planning for the film to hit theaters on February 11th, 2011. Stay tuned for more as we hear it.

Micah Sloat Talks Paranormal Activity 2
Published March 8, 2010, 10:49 am in Horror-Movies.ca! Tags:

It was obvious that Paramount was going to make a sequel to Oren Peli's surprise hit Paranormal Activity made them insane amounts of cash. The only real question we have had recently is who is going to step in and direct the sequel. So far we haven't heard anything but Micah Sloat the jack ass boyfriend from the original was able to comment a little on the sequel.

"All I can tell you is I'm very excited for the project," Sloat told MTV. "it's really cool, it's gonna be really interesting and it's not gonna suck, which most horror sequels ... you would imagine ... would. We have money now, but we're staying true to the heart of the movie, to the spirit of it, to the vision."

Below you can check out the video of the entire interview..

Fright Night Remake Director Named?
Published March 8, 2010, 10:41 am in Horror-Movies.ca! Tags:

Apparently the Fright Night remake has been a "high priority" project over at DreamWorks and it looks like today they have decided on who will direct it. According to the LA Times Craig Gillespie is in talks to be the man behind the helm.

Mad Men scribe Marti Nixon has been hired by Dreamworks to write the script this time around. Apparently they will keep the original story and modernize the effects. Nixon is familiar with vampires as well though having written for Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel.

The original "Fright," released in 1985, was written and directed by Tom Holland and starred Chris Sarandon, Roddy McDowall and William Ragsdale. Ragsdale played a teenager who discovers his neighbors are vampires.

Natali's Splice Getting A Facelift
Published March 8, 2010, 10:32 am in Horror-Movies.ca! Tags:

A couple days ago Warner Bros announced they will be releasing "Splice" from writer-director Vincenzo Natali in theaters on June 4th. Today Natali spoke with Fangoria about what is being done with the movie to get it ready for that release.

“You’re going to see a slightly nipped-and-tucked version,” he reveals. “I’m actually going into the editing room next week, and if they’re true to their word, it’s just going to be cosmetic. It really comes down to Joel (Silver). He loves the movie and actually enjoys the parts that would scare most producers away. He’s being very courageous releasing this. There are also a few things I’m changing after seeing the film with an audience. I believe what will come out of it will be a new and improved cut, but in essence, it’ll be the same film.”

The film, which stars Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley, revolves around two scientists who undertake illegal genetic experiments and create a new species fusing human and animal DNA. As the pair become global celebrities, the consequences of their accomplishment begin to become apparent.
