Movie Review: Werewolves Within (2021)

It’s a fact, horror-comedies are hit and miss, most often, they’re a miss. But every once in a while, one nails it, think Tucker And Dale Vs. Evil and Shaun of the Dead. I am happy to report that I have come across a movie that should be added to that list, Werewolves Within. I can definitely see it becoming a quick classic. From director Josh Ruben and writer Mishna Wolff (LOL Wolff, how appropriate.) comes a twisted tale of a small, secluded town that is about to find itself at the mercy of a beast. Finn, the new forest ranger arrives in town and soon he and the new postal worker, Cecily, find themselves locked in a house filled with insane neighbors who are all trying to survive a brutal killer, a werewolf.

“Raw” Director Is Back With “Titane” (First Look Trailer)

French filmmaker Julia Ducournau made her debut back in 2016 with the critically acclaimed cannibal horror film Raw. She’s back with her next picture, Titane, starring Agathe Rousselle and Vincent Lindon. While details are still being kept quiet, Neon has released an intriguing first-look teaser trailer that teases a film filled with sex and violence. Instead of releasing the film’s plot, Neon has shared the definition of titane. “A metal highly resistant to heat and corrosion, with high tensile strength alloys, often used in medical prostheses due to its pronounced biocompatibility.” Titane will make its world premiere this July at Cannes. As soon as we learn more we will give you an update. In the meantime, check out the trailer. WARNING: NSFW The trailer contains nudity.

MGM Sinks Its Fangs Into A New ‘Blacula’ Movie

One of the most iconic vampires to ever bare their fangs is Blacula, played in the 1972 classic blaxploitation film starring William Marshall and directed by William Crain. Guess what, it’s getting a modern reimagining, Variety reports. Before you get your panties in a bunch, you should know it’s more of a sequel than a reboot. The new movie will pick up where the original ended and after the 1973 sequel Scream Blacula Scream. In the new movie, “Blacula is an ancient African prince who is cursed by Dracula after he fails to agree to end the slave trade. Blacula is entombed and awakens 200 years later ready to avenge the death of his ancestors and of those responsible for robbing his people of their work, culture, and heritage as they appropriated it for profit.” Variety states.
