Join The Cult Of ‘The Apostle’ This October On Netflix

From Gareth Evans, the director of The Raid comes the revenge thriller Apostle, starring Dan Stevens, Michael Sheen, Lucy Boynton, Bill Millner, and Kristine Froseth. Set in “London, 1905, prodigal son Thomas Richardson (Dan Stevens) has returned home, only to learn that his sister is being held for ransom by a religious cult. Determined to get her back at any cost, Thomas travels to the idyllic island where the cult lives under the leadership of the charismatic Prophet Malcolm (Michael Sheen). As Thomas infiltrates the island’s community, he learns that the corruption of mainland society that they claim to reject has infested the cult’s ranks nonetheless – and uncovers a secret far more evil than he could have imagined. Apostle is a harrowing occult fable where the only thing more horrifying than madness is the sinister reality behind it.” Apostle arrives on Netflix on October 12, 2018.

‘Castle Rock’ To Tell A New “Unwritten King Story” Each Season

Just when we thought that Hulu’s anthology series “Castle Rock” couldn’t get any better we learn that the J.J. Abrams’ Stephen King universe-set show will “approach each season as an unwritten Stephen King novel”, according to co-creator Sam Shaw. Bloody Disgusting quoted Shaw as saying: “He’s a genre unto himself and there are seven or eight well-defined sub-genres. We’ve always loved the stories dealing with crime and punishment, and prisons, and Stephen King sort of grappling with real-world monsters – and what we do with them, and where we put them, how we treat them, and whether that makes us monsters. This season is written very much in the shadow of Shawshank and The Green Mile, and stories dealing with incarceration. But then there are great banging monster stories or there are cosmic stories about good and evil.” “We hope to have the latitude to come back to future seasons and just tell a great monster story set in like

Hereditary Director Begins Pre-Production On New Horror Film

Director Ari Aster‘s 2017 film, Hereditary, is hailed as one of the most frighting films of the past decade. Now, he has begun production on his next project, a still-untitled genre film that will star Jack Reynor, Florence Pugh, and Will Poulter. According to Collider, Vilhem Blomgren, William Jackson Harper, Ellora Torchia, and Archie Madekwe will co-star. Pugh and Reynor will play a couple that travels to Sweden to visit their friend’s rural hometown for its fabled mid-summer festival. What begins as an idyllic retreat quickly devolves into an increasingly violent and bizarre competition at the hands of a pagan cult. I’m in pre-production for my next film which will be shooting in Hungary. A24 is doing that as well, and that is technically a horror film,” Aster recently told THR. “It’s Scandinavian folk horror.” A24 is both producing and financing the film, which will be their largest production so far. The story centers a young couple visiting an isolated
