Supernatural Terror Is Unleashed In The New Trailer For ‘The Vigil’

The official trailer is here for writer-director Keith Thomas‘ thrilling supernatural horror, The Vigil which delves into ancient Jewish lore and demonology. Starring Dave Davis, Menashe Lustig, and Lynn Cohen, the film is set over the course of a single evening in Brooklyn’s Hasidic Borough Park neighborhood. Low on funds and having recently left his insular religious community, Yakov (Dave Davis) reluctantly accepts an offer from his former rabbi and confidante (Menashe Lustig) to take on the responsibility of an overnight “shomer,” fulfilling the Jewish practice of watching over the body of a deceased community member. Shortly after arriving at the recently departed’s dilapidated house to sit the vigil, Yakov begins to realize that something is very, very wrong. When I sat down to write the very first draft of THE VIGIL, I knew I wanted to tell a personal story that felt universal. The movie would be very contained and the stakes would, at first glance, seem small –

Actor Brad Henke Talks CBS's "The Stand" In Our Interview

Actor Brad Henke Talks CBS’s “The Stand” In Our Interview

Unless you’ve been living under a rock somewhere, you’ve heard that a new limited series adaptation of Stephen King’s “The Stand” is on its way. I had the opportunity to sit down with one of the show’s cast, Brad William Henke, who plays the central role of Tom Cullen. Of course, this is far from the first time that I’ve heard Henke’s name, you see he’s starred in two of my favorite series, “Orange Is the New Black” in which he played a prison guard with a wrapped sense of justice, and “Justified”, as a redneck bad guy. Henke has been in over 95 films and series. I was eager to talk with him. Horror Fuel: “I really enjoyed your work in both Justified and Orange Is the New Black. Boy, you play a rough character in that one. Piscatella was a real piece of work. Was it difficult filming scenes like the one with Red and to get in

Actor Jason Collett Talks Netflix’s Dark Film ‘The Devil All The Time’

Actor Jason Collett has appeared in many series and movies, including in HBO’s “Watchman” and “Dead Silent”. When I saw the trailer for Netflix’s The Devil All the Time, I knew I had to talk to him.

Not only does the trailer for The Devil All the Time look amazing, but it also has a long list of phenomenal actors including Collett, Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Bill Skarsgård, Sebastian Stan, and Jason Clarke. Horror Fuel: “What’s your story? How did you get into acting?” Jason Collett: “Oh, wow. Well, as a kid I grew up in Atlanta. I really didn’t know that I wanted to be an actor, but

Adrian Glynn McMorran Sheds Light On His Roles In ‘Volition’ And “Arrow”

Adrian Glynn McMorran stars in director and co-writer Tony Dean Smith’s soon to be released film Volition. I sat down with McMorran to discuss his role in the sci-fi action thriller about a man who sees glimpses of the future and sets out to save a young woman, played by Magda Apanowicz. McMorran is not new to exciting films, he’s appeared in films like The Revenant and Warcraft. But you will probably most recognize the talented actor from his role as Michael Amar aka Murmur on CW’s “Arrow.” Horror Fuel: “You did a nice run on Arrow as Murmur. What was that experience like?” McMorran: “It was really cool. For some reason on TV, I end up playing a lot of bad guys. There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s weird because like in the theater world when I do stage stuff I’m more like a Max Glee kind of guy. I guess I look mean on camera. Arrow was fun

Miles Doleac Talks Dinner Parties, Cannibalism, And So Much More In Our Interview

Back in 2016 I sat down with actor-writer-director Miles Doleac to talk about several of his films in an interview. With the upcoming release of his film The Dinner Party I thought it was fitting to catch up with him to talk about the film as well as what he’s been up to the last four years. In The Dinner Party, a couple is invited to an exclusive dinner party, not knowing that they are on the menu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dh0XXNbdyjI[/embedyt] Horror Fuel: “It’s been a while since we got the chance to catch up. What have you been up to?” Miles Doleac: “I’m teaching at Loyola University in New Orleans, the film program there, which is a great gig. I’ve been gearing up for the release of The Dinner Party.
