The 2019 production of Beetlejuice garnered eight Tony nominations and follows the familiar story of a deceased couple whose ghosts haunt the Deetz family.
Netflix and Universal were very kind to let me go direct Scream VII and put some projects on hold. Now I'm focused on those. The first is a TV show based in the Universal monster land. It won't skimp on Williamson's penchant for melodrama, either: he compared the project to an adult Vampire Diaries, which we've not really gotten from him before.
The first thing you notice about undertone is how quiet it is; not just in its audio mix, but in how it's shot - primarily steady wide shots that slowly pan across empty rooms, allowing your eyes to frantically scan for something amiss. It's an understated form of filmmaking that allows for the movie's scares to hit all that much harder.
Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
Who needs all those notes? I got tired of that. Really, really tired of that. And I'm like, man, if you're in the arts, you should do everything you can to protect your art. So Campbell knew he wanted to make a movie, and he knew he didn't want to go through the big Hollywood machine.
The new FX series The Beauty opens in Paris, as a model played by Bella Hadid strides down a fashion show runway to the tune of Prodigy's "Firestarter." Then, she starts to overheat, going on a rampage that involves grabbing bottles of water out of people's hands, stealing a motorcycle, drinking out of a toilet, and eventually meeting a gruesome, explosive end.
After years of slapdash sequels and waning fandom, the Camp Miasma slasher franchise is handed over to an enthusiastic young director for resurrection. But when she visits the original movie's star, a now-reclusive actress shrouded in mystery, the two women fall into a blood-soaked world of desire, fear, and delirium.
Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen's acting chops are on display in the trailer for the upcoming grindhouse comedic-horror film Jesus Cop. The industrial legend is part of an ensemble case that also includes Green Jellÿ singer Bill Manspeaker and Jackass star Bam Margera (as the voice of God). The movie, which stars Alex Petrovich as the title character, is described on its official website as follows:
The subsequent standoff moved to Kiritsis' apartment and eventually concluded in a live televised news conference. The whole ordeal received some renewed attention in a 2022 podcast dramatization starring Jon Hamm. That's owed significantly to Skarsgård, who gives one of his finest and least adorned performances. While best known for films like It, The Crow and Nosferatu, here Skarsgård has little more than some green polyester and a very '70s mustache to alter his looks. The straightforward, jittery intensity of his performance propels Dead Man's Wire.
As the movie opens, the city is being terrorised by a cult calling itself New World, whose members are hell bent on demonstrating their commitment to a survival-of-the-fittest creed by murdering everyone in sight. Their leader, a fearsome killer nicknamed the Night Slasher (Brian Thompson), wields a giant, spiky knife that must be the envy of Black Metal bands everywhere.
I posted a rave review of the new Sam Raimi film, Send Help, the other day and triggered a debate I didn't expect: is it OK for Christians to watch horror films? Send Help a gore-laced plane-crash survival face-off, according to the Guardian review (which was less kind than mine) is more comedy-horror than horror, or maybe horror/thriller.
