St. Agatha Gets Creepy New Poster

A new poster has been unveiled for St. Agatha, from Saw II, III, and IV director Darren Lynn Bousman which made its debut at the Overlook Film Festival in April. “Set in the 1950s in small-town Georgia, the film centers on a pregnant con woman named Agatha who is on the run and seeks refuge in a convent. What first starts out as the perfect place to have a child turns into a dark layer where silence is forced, ghastly secrets are masked, and every bit of willpower Agatha has is tested as she learns the sick and twisted truth of the convent and the odd people that lurk inside its halls.” This psychological horror film stars Sabrina Kern, Carolyn Hennesy, Courtney Halverson, Trin Miller, Lindsay Seim, Hannah Fierman, and Seth Michaels. Andy Demetrio, Shaun Fletcher, Sara Sometti Michaels, and Clint Sears wrote the film executive produced by Kimberly Bedrin, Philip Bedrin, Andy Demetrio, Shaun Fletcher, Rick Le, Jeff Trier,

‘The Crow’ Reboot Is Dead (Again)

After the long-gestating reboot of The Crow sat in limbo for years watching directors and stars come and come and go Sony finally gave the movie an October 2019 release date with Corin Hardy directing and Aquaman actor Jason Momoa set to star. Today news has come via Deadline that The Crow won’t be arriving as planned. In fact, both Hardy and Momoa have now walked away from the movie. Deadline is reporting that both “formally withdrew from the film this morning.” The site also says that “Sony is close to exiting as the film’s worldwide distributor.” I’m told this has to do with creative and financial differences with Samuel Hadida, whose Davis Films holds the underlying rights and who was financing the film.

‘Pet Sematary’ Digs Up A New Release Date

The Dennis Widmyer and Kevin Kolsch‘s remake of Stephen King’s Pet Sematary has dug up a new release date. Over the last few months, we have learned a bit about the remake, including that two of the lead roles have been cast.
