Fans are eagerly awaiting IT: Chapter Two‘s arrival in theaters. And who could blame them? Everything we hear implies that Chapter Two is going to be even more terrifying than 2017’s first installment from director Andy Muschietti. According to actress Jessica Chastain, who stars as adult Beverly, one scene is “Carrie on steroids”. But that’s not all, she stated that the film went through a jaw-dropping 4,500 gallons of fake blood! Just to put that in perspective, that would fill up an average above-ground swimming pool. In the movie there’s a scene…someone said on set that it’s the most blood that’s ever been in a horror film. In a scene,” Chastain told host Jimmy Fallon. She continued, “The next day I was pulling blood out of my eyeballs. It’s scary. “I was like, ‘No, if we’re going to do it, let’s do it.’ I love horror films, I love Carrie, and I said, ‘Let’s make Carrie on steroids.’ And that’s

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

Following the massive success of “The Haunting of Hill House,” Mike Flanagan and Netflix are gearing up for the series’ second season “The Haunting of Bly Manor,” inspired by Henry James’ novella The Turn of the Screw. During a talk with Birth.Movies.Death Flanagan reveals that this season will be “unbelievably scary.” For Henry James fans, it’s going to be pretty wild, and for people who aren’t familiar with his work, it’s going to be unbelievably scary. I already think it’s much scarier than season one, so I’m very excited about it,” Flanagan said. Flanagan also teased that there will be a little different from the novella. We’re looking at all the ghost stories of Henry James as the jumping-off point for the season, so it very much is a whole new deal. It’s a cool way to expand on some of the things I loved about season one, but within the framework of a new story, without having to be
