During an interview, Campbell reveals the first details of Evil Dead Now. Sam Raimi, who wrote and directed the original 1981 film, has handpicked Lee Cronin to both write and direct the new movie. It’s called Evil Dead Now. Sam handpicked Lee – he did a cool movie called The Hole in the Ground.

Before the five minute mark of Elvira: Mistress of the Dark; the titular character (portrayed by Cassandra Peterson) is groped by her new boss… and then she proceeds to quit her shitty job, and push that grabby bastard right through a desk. This is because Elvira kicks major ass… and guess what, so does this film! After the aforementioned bad touch; Elvira plans on taking her act (which seems to vary from Horror Host to Vegas showgirl… and some unholy combination of both) to Vegas… but her prospective producers are demanding a large sum to put on her show… and with her source of income now in the zero range, that ain’t gonna happen. Luckily our heroine gets a telegram informing her that her Great-Aunt Morgana has gone tits up, and Elvira is set to score big in the will; so she loads up her creepy caddy (the Macabre-mobile by name) and drives off to Fallwell, Massachusetts, where shortly after

In 2019 Ari Aster unleashed his disturbing, hit film Midsommar (review). Now, he’s teasing his next project. During a Reddit Ask-Me-Anything session, the Hereditary director stated that his next film will either be a “zonky nightmare comedy” or a “big, sickly domestic melodrama” saying either project would fit in with both Midsommar and Hereditary. Aster also described the second film as an “anxiety comedy” and “an absurdist, evil comedy.” Recently, while speaking to a group of UC Santa Barbara’s students, Aster teased that he’s completed a new draft of the “nightmare comedy.” Aster also said that the film will be even longer than Midsommar‘s extended cut which is 147 minutes long and more disturbing than the film’s theatrical release, saying “All I know is that it’s gonna be four hours long,” Aster stated. It can be noted that both of its predecessors were over two hours long. As soon as we know more we’ll give you an update.

‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ officially has a rating! The upcoming ‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ movie has been rated PG-13 “for intense sequences of creature violence/destruction and brief language.” This is the same rating as other movies within the Monsterverse (‘Godzilla’, ‘Kong: Skull Island’, and ‘Godzilla: King of the Monsters’) so this is no surprise. “In a time when monsters walk the Earth, humanity’s fight for its future sets Godzilla and Kong on a collision course that will see the two most powerful forces of nature on the planet collide in a spectacular battle for the ages. As Monarch embarks on a perilous mission into uncharted terrain and unearths clues to the Titans’ origins, a human conspiracy threatens to wipe the creatures, both good and bad, from the face of the earth forever.” Hopefully, now that there is a rating in place, we will get a trailer and we can get this titanic battle started!

A group of attractive people manage to mow down a kid while doing the ol’ DWI bag and then find themselves stalked and slayed by a maniac wearing a burlap sack over his head. It’s like Jason Voorhees knows what you did last summer with The Wake. To elaborate, after our “heroes” murder said child, they are invited to his wake by his mother, and for some outrageous reason they actually go, only to be drugged and bound within a house lit only by blue lighting (seriously…every. damn. scene. Blue, blue, blue…). The group then slowly (and I mean slowly…more on that in a bit) meander around the house and occasionally have a go-around with the dude in the sack mentioned previous. Let’s start with a few nice things to say about The Wake. Let’s see…there were a few unexpected elements that added a bit of freshness to this somewhat pedestrian affair; namely, the dude driving the car actually admits
