Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark Comes To Life In New Eight Minute Featurette

The classic illustrations by Stephen Gammell in the book “Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark” terrified multiple generations. In a new 8-minute featurette from producer Guillermo del Toro and director André Øvredal‘s new movie, we watch as the illustrations are turned into disturbingly realistic creatures by Spectral Motion. Troy “Twisty” James slipped on a suit to bring to life his character Jangly Man. Brilliant actor Javier Botet gives us the creeps as the toe-less woman in “The Big Toe.” Both created mostly by practical effects. The featurette also reveals a look behind the scenes of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark which is now playing in theaters nationwide. Set in 1968 in America, “a change is blowing in the wind…but seemingly far removed from the unrest in the cities, the small town of Mill Valley where for generations, the shadow of the Bellows family has loomed large. It is in their mansion on the edge of town that

Wet Your Appetite With The First Images From Miles Doleac’s ‘The Dinner Party’

Writer-director Miles Doleac (Demons, Hallowed Ground) comes his latest film, The Dinner Party, “a wickedly delish slice of horror that’s part Guto Parente’s The Cannibal Club, part Mother, and all scares!” In the film, currently filming in Hattiesburg, MS, the film centers on a ” budding playwright and his wife attend a dinner party hosted by wealthy, cultural elites, who have promised to bankroll the writer’s latest play to Broadway, but, in fact, have darker designs in mind for the couple.” The Dinner Party stars Bill Sage, Lindsay Anne Williams, Jeremy London, Mike Mayhall, Alli Hart, Ritchie Montgomery, and Doleac, best known for his roles on TV’s “Banshee” and “American Horror Story”.

But as a result, something’s been happening inside Bart’s head that a heartless local bureaucracy isn’t prepared for—a complete and irrevocable burnout of the mental circuit breaker that keeps a mild-mannered person from turning to violent means. As the wheels of progress and a demolition
