A Group Of High School Girls Form A Deadly Cult In ‘The Sinners’ Trailer

Let’s be honest, we all rebelled some in high school and we probably did a few bad things, but I can almost guarantee that starting a killer satanic cult wasn’t one of them. That’s the premise of director Courtney Paige‘s horror film The Sinners. In the movie, “Seven schoolgirls, part of a clique dubbed The Sins, become the lethal target of an unknown killer after a harmless prank goes horribly wrong.” Kaitlyn Bernard, Brenna Coates, Aleks Paunovic, Brenna Llewellyn, Michael Eklund, Lochlyn Munro, and Tahmoh Pinikett star. The Sinners is out on On Demand on February 19, 2021. Check out the trailer!

Review: ‘The Wheel’ Is A Frightening Flick From Masters Of The Genre

While Ferris wheels can be a lot of fun, they can also be frightening as proven in Nikhil Bhagat’s fantastic short horror film The Wheel, set to be released this February. The film finds a woman (Molly Buecher) alone in a big empty house while her husband is on a trip shopping for antiques to sell in their shop. When he sends home an old toy Ferris wheel he has no idea of the terror it will unleash on his wife. The first thing I noticed right off to bat about The Wheel is its fantastic cinematography, rich look, and great camera work, which is top-notch and better than we usually see in short films. The acting from Molly Buecher was great and she really sells her fear which feels authentic. The dark entity who appears in the film is creepy as hell and has a killer look and design that we haven’t seen a million times before. This terrifying

‘Morbius’ Gets A New Release Date

Earlier today we reported the A Quiet Place II has been delayed again, but it’s not the only movie to keep getting pushed back. The new comic-inspired Jared Leto movie Morbius has just been delayed again as well. UGH! Most recently set to sink its fangs into theaters in October and then in March, Morbius will now arrive early in 2022. Part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe(MCU), Morbius stars Jared Leto as Michael Morbius, a scientist who, while trying to find a cure for a rare blood disease, accidentally transforms himself into a living vampire. Though disgusted by his own bloodlust, he chooses to prey upon criminals he deems unworthy of life. Tyrese Gibson stars as FBI agent Simon Stroud; Jared Harris (“The Terror”) plays Morbius’ mentor; Matt Smith (“Doctor Who”) plays the film’s villain Loxias Crown; and Adria Arjona (Pacific Rim: Uprising) is Morbius’ love interest.

‘A Quiet Place II’ Hit With Yet Another Delay

Two years ago, when a movie’s release date was announced you could count on it arriving on time, but thanks to the covid pandemic that just isn’t the case anymore. Now, films continue to get delays time and time again and big-budget movies are no exception.

Most recently it was set to open in theaters in April, but a new release date has just put it even further away, debuting on September 17, 2021. We hope it sticks this time. Emily Blunt, Cillian Murphy, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe, and Djimon Hounsou star in the sequel to the critically acclaimed 2018 film . Part II finds the Abbott family (Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe) now facing the terrors of the outside world as they continue their fight for survival in silence.
