Blind Artist George Redhawk Creates Amazing Gifs For The Horror Sci-fi Thriller Morgan

George Redhawk, a legally blind motion effects artist, has created a special series of his beautiful, eerie GIFs for 20th Century Fox’s upcoming sci-fi thriller ‘Morgan’. Using special visual-aid software he creates amazing motion artwork to “show the world as he sees it from his damaged sight.” ‘Morgan’, from producer Ridley Scott, follows a “…corporate troubleshooter (Kate Mara) who is sent to a remote, top-secret location, where she is to investigate and evaluate a terrifying accident. She learns the event was triggered by a seemingly innocent “human,” who presents a mystery of both infinite promise and incalculable danger.” Redhawk’s use of technology to create his artwork is parallel to the scientists in the film creating Morgan, who is both an amazing, beautiful creation and a terrible danger. Directed by Luke Scott, written by Seth W. Owen, ‘Morgan’ stars Mara, Rose Leslie, Michelle Yeoh, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Chris Sullivan, Paul Giamatti, Toby Jones, Boyd Holbrook, Michael Yare and Anya Taylor-Joy as

We’re Headed Back To Sleepaway Camp In New Film

Back in 1983 we witnessed a character named Angela (Felissa Rose) reveal a big (I don’t know if big is the right word) secrete in a scene that shocked the hell out of horror fans, I’m talking about ‘Sleepaway Camp’. The slasher flick spawned four sequels and is now about to add another film to the franchise. Before you jump the gun and assume it’s a reboot/remake, I should tell you that it will be a direct sequel to the original film. Back in 2013 former New Line executive Jeff Katz obtained the rights. He will be producing the sequel with the franchise’s creator and writer Robert Hiltzik. Katz recently spoke about the project on The Movie Crypt podcast. He explained that the new film will reveal what Angela has been in a sanitarium all these years. In the sequel she escapes and returns to Camp Arawak. Katz hopes that Rose will reprise her role as Angela. Let’s be honest,

Michael Pena (The Vatican Tapes) is set to star in Sony’s ‘The Bringing’ from director Jeremy Lovering. The most recent script was penned by Kevin Kolsch and Denis Widmyer. The film is set in the Cecil Hotel in downtown Los Angeles, the very same hotel that inspired last season’s ‘American Horror Story: Hotel’. The hotel has a dark and deadly past and once served as home to a serial killer. The Cecil Hotel also has had a long history of mysterious deaths, suicides, and disappearances. Pena will be playing the role of an investigator looking for answers after a mysterious death occurs on the hotel’s grounds, according to Bloody Disgusting.
