James Wan To Direct The First Film In The RESIDENT EVIL Franchise Reboot

A few days we informed you that just as Resident Evil: the Final Chapter was released on DVD, a reboot of the franchise is already in the works. Today, we have a update. News has come that genre heavy-hitter James Wan will be in the director’s chair for the first film of six that is planned. Wan is behind films such as The Conjuring, Insidious, Saw, and Annabelle. While the thought of another reboot doesn’t thrill me, I am a huge fan of Wan. Could he improve the story? Yes, probably, but I’m just not sure that horror fans really want to see six new Resident Evil films. Not to mention, fans have grown to know and love the main character Alice (Milla Jovovich) are they really interested in seeing someone else play the role or see a different character all together? Jovovich had this to say when asked for her opinion on the reboots by ComicBook.com: They’ve announced a

Details For ‘Jeepers Creepers 3’ Emerge And ‘Jeepers Creepers 4’ Confirmed

With Jeepers Creepers 3 in post production, details are starting to emerge. It seems that not only does it pick up after the events in part 2, it is filled with flash backs. Word is, writer-director Victor Salva had completely rewrote the script after it was announced to lower the budget for the movie that has had so much trouble getting off the ground. In an interview with Diabolique Magazine, star of both the original film and Jeepers Creepers 3, Gina Phillips talked about the flashbacks and her character, Trish. …the plan is for this stuff to go to the screen in the next Jeepers Creepers movie,” she said. Victor has written what happens from the second after the conclusion of Jeepers Creepers 3,” she continued. “I think that’s all I’m allowed to say about it but he wrote in such detail and he had a lot of flashbacks to what happened over the years that it made it very

Exclusive: BUBBA THE REDNECK WEREWOLF Is Getting A Hair-Raising Sequel

Bubba the Redneck Wolf, based on Mitch Hyman’s comic book series by the same name, has been killing it on Hulu. In a recent interview with Hyman he revealed not only that Bubba is getting a sequel, but he also gave us the exclusive scoop on the details. The original 2014 film centers on Bubba (Fred Lass), a good-hearted redneck who works as a dog catcher. When his girl, Bobby Jo (Melone Thomas), leaves him for another man Bubba makes a deal with the Satan (Hyman), but it doesn’t quite go as planned. Instead of becoming a better version of himself he is transformed into a werewolf with a new mission, saving his neighbors in Cracker County from Satan.

RESIDENT EVIL Receives the Reboot Order Less Than Six Months After The Series Ends

Alongside The Matrix and Underworld, Resident Evil was one of the original “attractive people in leather kick ass” films, released all the way back in 2002, with an array of less and less impressive sequels following. The powers at be finally decided to put a bullet in the gassy franchises head with Resident Evil: The Final Chapter earlier this year, but apparently this series is a lot like the zombies that inhabit it; unable to die, and dangerous to the brains of anyone who gets to close. According to Bloody-Disgusting, a reboot is in the works less than six months after the The Final Chapter limped its way out of theaters. While there’s no denying these films make good money (300 Mil on a 40 Mil budget is a tidy profit for any movie, let alone horror), but I doubt I’m alone in wondering why. If I want to watch an attractive lady in leather, I’ll hire a dominatrix. Hell,

As Thomas (Mullan), James (Butler), and Donald (Swindells) settle into their usual, solitary routines, something unexpected and potentially life-changing occurs – they stumble upon something that isn’t theirs to keep. Where did it come from? Who does it belong to? A boat appears in the distance that might hold the answer to these questions. What follows is a tense battle for survival as personal greed replaces loyalty – and fed by isolation and paranoia, three honest men are led down the path to destruction.
