Nothing But Blood: Two New ‘Is God Is’ Clips Tease Sisters on a Mission of Revenge

Family Reunions: Now With 100% More Homicide If you were hoping for a heartwarming tale about healing old wounds over potato salad, keep walking. Is God Is isn’t interested in your feelings. It’s interested in your femoral artery.

Hell Hath No Fury (But These Two Do) The setup is simple: Two sisters, Anaia and Racine, receive a letter from their mother. She’s got a horrific backstory, a body full of scars, and one modest, terrifying request: find their father and end him. What follows is an

'Devil's Mouth' Sees Kathryn Newton Goes Head-to-Head with a Shark this Summer

‘Devil’s Mouth’ Sees Kathryn Newton Goes Head-to-Head with a Shark this Summer

Summer always brings heat, humidity, and a fresh wave of shark movies (not that we’re complaining). This year is no different, and the “sharkfest” is only just beginning. Kathryn Newton leads the charge in the latest aquatic survival thriller, Devil’s Mouth. The MPA has officially handed the film a PG-13 rating. Expect plenty of violent content, bloody images, and some suggestive material. A Very Bad Day at the Beach Lana Condor joins Newton as a college friend on a trip to Thailand. Their dream vacation turns into a claustrophobic nightmare in an underwater cave system. A hungry bull shark decides to join the party, trapping them deep below the surface. Old tensions and power struggles resurface as the oxygen begins to fade. Surviving the shark might be easier than surviving each other. The Creative Crew Jeff Wadlow directs from a script by Aja Gabel and Myung Joh Wesner. Amazon, MGM Studios, and Lionsgate are teaming up to co-produce the project.

Sophie Thatcher Leads the Witch Hunting Film 'Cavendish'

Sophie Thatcher Leads the Witch Hunting Film ‘Cavendish’

Forget everything you know about the somber, gray world of 17th-century Puritanism. The film Cavendish is set to prove that the witch hunts of 1645 weren’t just about paranoia. They were also the perfect backdrop for an “irreverent and original” action-thriller. Billed as a visceral blend of high-stakes violence and sharp, biting humor, the film aims to subvert the “powerless victim” trope by giving its leading ladies a lot more than just a broomstick to fight back with. The Hunt is On The story kicks off on what should have been a lovely wedding day for a privileged young bride, played by “Yellowjackets” star Sophie Thatcher. Instead of a “happily ever after,” she finds herself slapped with a witchcraft accusation. She is pursued by a relentless witch hunter, portrayed by Joe Alwyn. To survive the ordeal, she’s forced into a begrudging alliance with a sharp-witted poacher, played by Erin Kellyman. Together, this unlikely duo decides that instead of running, they’ll

She’s coming out swinging with a cinematic cocktail that’s equal parts Spaghetti Western and Greek Tragedy.

She’s got a horrific backstory and one simple, terrifying request: kill their father. What follows is an epic quest for revenge that moves from the deep South to the California desert.
