A First Look At Josh Crook’s ‘Demon Hole’

Josh Crook, co-writer and co-director of the 2006 horror thriller ‘Salvage’, is working on a new horror-comedy titled ‘Demon Hole’. In ‘Demon Hole’ a fracking crew, drilling on Native American land, unleashes an ancient evil. Now six teens must find away to survive. Crook had this to say about ‘Demon Hole’ : “The current crop of horror movies has gotten too severe and grim. While scary, they’re also depressing. Taking influence from John Hughes as much as it does John Carpenter and Wes Craven, Demon Hole brings the vibe of the 1980s back and invites the audience to enjoy the ride.” Demon Hole’s cast includes Samantha Scaffidi (The Apocalypse Survival Guide), Paris Campbell (Night Bus), Summer Bills (House of the Witchdoctor), Adrian Denzel (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) and ‘Jupiter Ascending’ actor Austin Ramsey. SC Films has picked up the international rights to ‘Demon Hole’. The release date has not announced at this time.

Jonah Hill To Make A New Dracula Triliogy

Over the years we have seen many movies based on the legend of Dracula. Now we are about to have a new adaption by funny man Jonah Hill. The two time Oscar winner has signed on to produce and star in a new Dracula trilogy. The trilogy will put a comedic spin on the legendary blood sucker. The franchise’s first movie will be released in 2016, the next two movies in the collection will be released in 2017 and 2018. “I always loved Dracula as a child, and I want to remain true to the source material whilst at the same time, I think putting a unique spin on it will make the audience appreciate him in a totally new way.” It has been rumored that Evan Goldberg (The Interview) will be involved with the project, though he has yet to confirm it.

One night while out on a call to break up a party out in the woods, Lou is hit from behind. He wakes in the morning with flashes of the night before , a murdered politician and a strange ceremony. ‘WolfCop’ is cleaning up the city’s dirt-bags and leaving a trail of bodies behind. After being seduced by a beautiful bartender (Sarah Lind), he finds himself in serious trouble, but it’s hard to keep a good wolf down.

The Infected: Jim’s First Day by Joseph Zuko

Review: The Infected: Jim’s First Day by Joseph ‘Zombie’ Zuko On a day like any other, Jim Blackmore finds himself at ground zero of the zombie apocalypse. He is forced to run a blood-soaked gauntlet through a city overrun by an insurmountable horde of the dead in a desperate attempt to reach his wife and two small children.
