‘Don’t Breathe’ Director Is Taking Us Back To The LABYRINTH Universe

Fede Alvarez is leaving his mark on the horror genre with films like Don’t Breathe and Evil Dead. Now, the incredibly talented director is about to take us back to the Labyrinth universe, a place etched into the minds of an entire generation (and more). Alvarez’s next project is The Girl in the Spider’s Web, but that’s not what here about today. The project that will follow The Girl in the Spider’s Web is. It is a movie that “will delve into the universe Jim Henson hatched in the 1986 cult classic,” Labyrinth. Alvarez will co-write the untitled project with Jay Basu. Before you freak out, the film will NOT be a remake and will NOT feature David Bowie’s character Jareth (because no one can replace Bowie). It will be completely original, Deadline reports. Labyrinth is one of the seminal movies from my childhood that made me fall in love with filmmaking,” Alvarez said. “I couldn’t be more thrilled to

CULT OF CHUCKY Will Be The Goriest Film Of The Entire Franchise

Since the moment Cult of Chucky was announced back in January, we’ve been excited. I mean come on, who doesn’t love Chucky? The first image arrived later that month. And Back in February, returning actor Alex Vincent announced that filming had wrapped. Now, franchise creator, writer and director Don Mancini revealed at this weekend’s Monsterpalooza’s Cult of Chucky panel that the sequel will be the “goriest of all the movies”. That says a lot considering the level of gore in Bride of Chucky and Seed of Chucky. Remember when John Waters had his face melted off? The cast added even more tidbits during the panel. Actress Jennifer Tilly added during the panel that now the studio is considering a theatrical release. And Dourif revealed that the film was torture for her character. In the film, confined to an asylum for the criminally insane for the past four years, Nica Pierce (Fiona Dourif) is erroneously convinced that she, not Chucky, murdered

The Soska Sisters Give Insight Into Their Remake Of Rabid

Back in February of last year we reported that the Soska sisters, Jen and Sylvia, will be directing the remake of David Cronenberg’s 1977 film Rabid. There hasn’t been any news since, until now. The writing-directing sister team, also known as the “Twisted Twins”, let a lit info slip about their approach to the making the film while talking to The Horror Channel. We are very honored to have been the team chosen to take on the remake of Cronenberg’s Rabid. Normally, I’m not a huge fan of remakes but that’s if they don’t have anything new to bring to the story. We have a unique perspective just because of who we are to tell the story from Rose’s eyes as well as make a commentary on the increasingly rabid world that we live in. Also, we’ve been dying to get back into body horror. Ten years into David’s filmmaking career, he remade The Fly and it brought him to

A New Film Is In The Works For THE PURGE Franchise

We recently reported that The Purge franchise is being developed into a television series. Today, we have more news on the film franchise. Have you ever wondered how The Purge began? The fourth film of the franchise will answer that. That’s right, we are getting a Purge prequel. We are going back to the very beginning to learn how the deadly, lawless night began. Franchise creator James DeMonaco had this to say about the prequel: I would actually go back and I would try to talk about how it all started. That seems the natural next chapter in this, is to say, ‘Alright, we’ve done this trilogy. We see how it got to this point of someone trying to end it – this presidential figure. Now let’s go back and see how the fuck all this came about.’ How did this country get to a place where we were now accepting this kind of atrocity, this terrible thing, each year?
