Henry Chaisson (Antlers, “Servant”) is writing the series for Amazon Studios with Carlton Cuse executive producing alongside Henrik Bastin and Melissa Aouate (“Bosch”).

Come Face To Face With ‘The Boogeyman’ In Upcoming Stephen King Movie

The new year is set to bring us all kinds of terrifying delights including another Stephen King adaptation. This time it’s a film based on his short story The Boogeyman. Host and “Bite Size Horror” director Rob Savage is at the helm of the film that began filming this past spring and will expand on the original tale. The film’s cast has already been announced and includes David Dastmalchian (pictured), Chris Messian, Sophie Thatcher, Marin Ireland, and Vivian Lyre Blair. In the film, a man named Lester Billings talks to his psychiatrist about the “murders” of his three young children, describing the events of the past several years. His first two children died mysteriously of apparently unrelated causes (diagnosed as crib death and convulsions, respectively) when left alone in their bedrooms. The only commonalities were that the children cried “Boogeyman!” and the closet door was found ajar after discovering their corpses, even though Billings is certain the door was shut.

Series Review: Tales to Keep you Awake (1966-1982)

Series Review: Tales to Keep you Awake (1966-1982)

Spanish filmmaker Narciso Ibáñez Serrador is a true punk rock filmmaker (yeah this is a weird way to start a review, but bear with me cats n’ creeps). Having dug on American horror and anthology series such as The Outer Limits, Thriller, and the like, the ambitious filmmaker just said “Fuck it, I can do this shit too.”… except he said it in Spanish (if at all)… and he did just that with his series Tales To Keep You Awake (albeit with way more vicious violence and sweet, sweet grizzly gore than all of those show’s combined)! Comprised of a series that ran from 1966 – 1968, a stand alone 1974 special, and a small revival series from 1982, Tales is chock full of adaptations of work from masters such as Edgar Allan Poe, Ray Bradbury, and Robert Bloch… not to mention a direct swipe or two from the aforementioned TV shows. Filmed in atmospheric black and white, these rippin’

Writer-Director Casper Kelly Discusses Adult Swim’s Surprise Horror Movie

Adult Swim’s first feature horror film made its debut earlier in the week under the guise of a Yuletide Log. Moments into the video of the crackling fireplace we begin to hear talking and soon we see a murder.

The unexpected, entertaining movie is from Adult Swim veteran Casper Kelly, who directs after writing Adult Swim series such as “Too Many Cooks” and “Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell”, as well as the hit Nicholas Cage movie, Mandy. I spoke with Kelly about The Fire Place, the movie within the Yule Log video.
