Dairy and Destruction: Eli Roth Serves Up a Chilling New Clip from ‘Ice Cream Man’

From YouTube Glitches to Spielberg: ‘The Mandela Catalogue’ Sparked an 11-Studio Bidding War
Hollywood is desperately hunting for the next Backrooms-style viral jackpot. And they just found it in a fictional, cursed county in Wisconsin. Following closely behind the recently announced Siren Head feature film, an adaptation of the viral YouTube analog-horror sensation The Mandela Catalogue is officially in active development. And to say it has some industry muscle behind it would be a severe understatement. In what turned into a ruthless 11-studio bidding war, a powerhouse alliance consisting of Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment, Scott Stuber’s United Artists (Frankenstein), and Amazon MGM Studios emerged victorious, securing the rights. Psychological Warfare and Unholy Tech Support First launched into the digital ether in 2021, the original YouTube series is set in Mandela County, Wisconsin. It’s a lovely little place. However, it has unfortunately been invaded by shape-shifting, practically immortal entities known as “Alternates.” Led by a deeply unsettling, false manifestation of the Archangel Gabriel, these creatures don’t just hunt humans with claws and teeth. Instead,

Cregger on Why His ‘Resident Evil’ Movie is Leaving the Video Game Characters Behind
If you were hoping to see Leon S. Kennedy drop-kick a zombie or Jill Valentine on the big screen this fall, you might want to adjust your expectations for the upcoming Resident Evil movie. Zach Cregger—the mastermind behind the claustrophobic horror hit Barbarian and the highly praised Weapons—is wiping the creative slate completely clean for his upcoming Resident Evil film. The movie is taking place in the infamous, corporate-cursed setting of Raccoon City in 1998. Cregger has confirmed that absolutely zero legacy characters from the Capcom franchise will appear. Speaking with Empire magazine, Cregger defended his decision to leave the fan-favorites on the bench: “To try and shoehorn in any of those characters would feel inorganic to this self-contained story. I have to put the story first and foremost.” Trading Superhero Cops for an Everyday Courier Instead of a heavily armed special forces agent, Cregger’s narrative focuses entirely on a wholly original protagonist named Bryan. He’s a medical courier who
