IFC Midnight Now Possesses The Rights To Neill Blomkamp’s ‘Demonic’

Back in February, we reported that filmmaker Neill Blomkamp (District 9, Elysium, Chappie) had secretly made the horror film Demonic and that it was heading to EFM. Now, we can report that IFC Midnight and AGC Studios have acquired the U.S. rights to the film both written and directed by Neill Blomkamp. In Demonic, a young woman unleashes terrifying demons when supernatural forces at the root of a decades-old rift between mother and daughter are ruthlessly revealed. Carly Pope (Elysium), Chris William Martin (The Age of Adaline, Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem, TV’s “The Vampire Diaries”), and Michael Rogers (TV’s Siren, TV’s The Blacklist, TV’s Supernatural) are set to star in the supernatural horror. Blomkamp first earned critical acclaim across the board for his debut feature and sci-fi allegory on immigration District 9 before going on to further success with such films as Elysium and Chappie, and his short film series from Oat Studios which he discussed with us during our

The ninth annual edition of Kansas City’s Panic Fest grows closer, as the hybrid edition takes place from April 8–18, 2021. I mentioned in Horror Fuel’s previous article about the festival that I have seen — and can highly recommend — some of the films scheduled, including Canadian horror comedy Vicious Fun, killer stuffed animal comedy Benny Loves You, and Australian horror comedy An Ideal Host, the unsettling An Unquiet Grave, folk horror The Old Ways, and Canadian science fiction feature Parallel Minds. Now I want to share six films on offer for Panic Fest that I can’t wait to watch. The official festival descriptions follow, with my thoughts in italics after each listing. The Carnivores D: Caleb Michael Johnson Regional Premiere, 1h 17min Alice and Bret’s dog Harvey is dying, and he’s ruining everything.

Horror Comedy ‘Boys from County Hell’ Unleashes A Vampire In New Hilarious Trailer

Ahead of its April release, Shudder has shared the trailer for their new Irish horror-comedy Boys from County Hell, a movie that you don’t want to miss! Strange events unfold in Six Mile Hill – a sleepy Irish town that claims to have been traveled by the famed author Bram Stoker – when construction on a new road disrupts the alleged grave of Abhartach, a legendary Irish vampire said to have inspired Dracula. Deadly and sinister forces terrorize the work crew led by Francie Moffat and his son Eugene, a free-spirited young man who prefers pints to pickaxes, and they’re forced to fight to survive the night while exposing the true horror that resides in the town’s local myth. Jack Rowan (Peaky Blinders), Nigel O’Neill (The Bookshop), Louisa Harland (Derry Girls), Fra Fee (Animals, the upcoming Hawkeye series), John Lynch (The Terror, The Banishing), and Michael Hough (the upcoming Chapelwaite series), star in the laugh out loud movie written and

Panic Film Fest Hybrid In-Person and Virtual Online Lineup Offers a Stellar Array of Chillers and Thrillers 

The ninth annual edition of Kansas City’s Panic Fest is loaded with amazing horror, thriller, and genre films, and it will combine both in-person and online screenings. The hybrid edition takes place from April 8–18, 2021. I have seen a few of the films on tap, and can tell you that you will be hard-pressed to find a funnier horror comedy this season than Canadian offering Vicious Fun, while killer stuffed animal comedy Benny Loves You and Australian horror comedy An Ideal Host offer their fair shares of laughs and shocks, as well.

Blu-ray Review: Nosferatu in Venice (1988)

Some duck hunters shoot down a bat which a dog then eats like a complete mother fucker. Thus begins 1988’s Nosferatu in Venice in the only way it possibly could. Next up we have the arrival of the that most Van Helsing of Van Helsings; Professor Paris mother fucking Catalano… yeah I have no clue either, but he’s played by Christopher Plummer (Starcrash) so bonus… and the way he glides into Venice standing straight as an arrow on a fast moving gondola is some big dick energy for sure (and there’s a mirror image of it utilized later in the film that is jaw-droppingly beautiful). Anyway; Catalano is down Venice way to research the last recorded appearance of that dread vampire Nosferatu (Klaus Kinski, who you can bet we’ll be talking more about soon) in the plague-ridden late 1700’s… and yes, the vampire’s name is Nosferatu… not Count Orlok… not Dracula… mother fucking Nosferatu… which just means vampire. Yes indeed…

Horror-Comedy ‘Hawk & Rev: Vampire Slayers’ Is Out Now On Demand And On DVD

Ryan Barton Grimley’s blood-soaked horror-comedy Hawk And Rev: Vampire Slayers is out now On Demand and on DVD! Grimley, Ari Schneider, Jana Savage, and Richard Gayler star in the indie film that follows Philip “HAWK” Hawkins who doesn’t just dream about killing vampires…he eats, sleeps, drinks, and freakin’ breaths it. After getting kicked out of the Army for staking a fellow soldier with a blunt two by four, Hawk almost dies of boredom working as a night security guard at a deserted warehouse in his hometown of Santa Muerte, California. Just when it looks like all Hawk’s options in life have expired, filthy blood-sucking vampires appear and of course, no one freakin’ believes him! With his back up against the wall, his sweaty Karate Kid headband tied on tight, real tight, and hordes of blood-thirsty vampires closing in, Hawk enlists the help of the one person who kind of believes him… Revson “REV” McCabe, a dimwitted, vegan-pacifist groundskeeper. Together they
