There’s “No Salvation” In The Trailer For Russian Creature Feature ‘The Superdeep’

The trailer and first image for the Russian creature feature The Superdeep has clawed its way to the surface. In the film from writer-director Roman Karimov, “The Kola Superdeep Borehole is the most large-scale secret object of the country. In 1984, inexplicable sounds like the screams of many voices were recorded at a depth of more than 12 kilometers. In the wake of these events, the object was closed. A small research team went down below the surface to find out what secret the world’s deepest borehole was hiding. What they have found turned out to be the greatest threat in history. And the future of humanity is in their hands.” The Kola Superdeep Borehole is real. It’s located on the Kola Penninsula in the Pechengsky District. In 1989 the borehole reached a record-breaking depth of 40,230 feet, with its goal being to breach the earth’s crust. Set in 1984, the film pays homage to the genre classic The Thing.

Prometheus actress Noomi Repace is set to star in the Alex Aja (Horns, Crawl) produced thriller O2. Aja is reteaming with director Frank Khalfoun (P2, Maniac, Amityville: The Awakening) for the film. Christie LeBlanc penned the script, Deadline reports. “The pic centers on a woman who wakes up in a cryogenic medical pod, alone, with no memory, and no way out. All she knows is that she has 90 minutes of oxygen left and must figure out how to save herself while discovering who she really is, who put her there, and most importantly – why?” One of the most compelling scripts I’ve read in years – a pure survival experience with a great mystery at its core,” Aja said. “Even without the oxygen running out, the suspense on the page left me breathless.” Echo Lake Entertainment, 42 and Wild Bunch International are also producing.

Graphic Novel Review: Membrane: Book One By Michael Broom

When I received Michael Broom‘s debut graphic novel “Membrane” I was extremely excited. You see, I’ve been following Broom’s social media accounts since I interviewed him back in 2017 about his work with KNB and on “The Walking Dead”. The incredible artist has been teasing the graphic novel and his children’s book “Sky Rats” and its sequel for a while. I’m glad to finally have the book in hand. The novel follows a military man turned criminal Called on by the government to go on a mission to another dimension, tasked with retrieving another soldier. When he arrives in the nightmare dimension his long journey begins across an alien landscape filled with strange creatures. The forward is written by none other by Greg Nicotero (“The Walking Dead”, “Creepshow”). Bio-organic flying creatures that provide light, a sword that is virtually alive, and cemeteries whose inhabitants don’t like being disturbed; Membrane has the ability to redifine everything that we have ever imagined
