Supernatural Thriller ‘The Devil’s Light’ Possesses ‘Last Exorcism’ Director

Lionsgate announced last year that they are co-producing the supernatural thriller The Devil’s Light. James Hawes (“Penny Dreadful”) was in the director’s chair but that has now changed. The Last Exorcism’s Daniel Stamm is now listed as director, Bloody-Disgusting reports. Written by Robert Zappia (Halloween H2O), “The Devil’s Light tells the story of Sister Ann, a restless 25-year-old, who devoutly believes that performing exorcisms is her calling. But she is at odds with the institution’s traditions: sisters are not allowed to perform exorcisms, only priests. With the support of a mentor, a professor who senses her special gift, she is allowed to observe actual training sessions. Her desire to prove herself takes a personal turn when she meets one of the school’s most disturbed patients. During their harrowing encounters, Sister Ann comes face to face with a demonic force that infests the school and has mysterious ties to her own past. It is then that the power of evil and

Snatchers which we called “a goretastic horror-comedy that you need to see,” in our five-star review, has just been unleashed on Blu-ray™ and DVD.

There’s “No Salvation” In The Trailer For Russian Creature Feature ‘The Superdeep’

The trailer and first image for the Russian creature feature The Superdeep has clawed its way to the surface. In the film from writer-director Roman Karimov, “The Kola Superdeep Borehole is the most large-scale secret object of the country. In 1984, inexplicable sounds like the screams of many voices were recorded at a depth of more than 12 kilometers. In the wake of these events, the object was closed. A small research team went down below the surface to find out what secret the world’s deepest borehole was hiding. What they have found turned out to be the greatest threat in history. And the future of humanity is in their hands.” The Kola Superdeep Borehole is real. It’s located on the Kola Penninsula in the Pechengsky District. In 1989 the borehole reached a record-breaking depth of 40,230 feet, with its goal being to breach the earth’s crust. Set in 1984, the film pays homage to the genre classic The Thing.

Noomi Repace Is Running Out Of Air In The Alex Aja Produced Thriller ‘O2’

Prometheus actress Noomi Repace is set to star in the Alex Aja (Horns, Crawl) produced thriller O2. Aja is reteaming with director Frank Khalfoun (P2, Maniac, Amityville: The Awakening) for the film. Christie LeBlanc penned the script, Deadline reports. “The pic centers on a woman who wakes up in a cryogenic medical pod, alone, with no memory, and no way out. All she knows is that she has 90 minutes of oxygen left and must figure out how to save herself while discovering who she really is, who put her there, and most importantly – why?” One of the most compelling scripts I’ve read in years – a pure survival experience with a great mystery at its core,” Aja said. “Even without the oxygen running out, the suspense on the page left me breathless.” Echo Lake Entertainment, 42 and Wild Bunch International are also producing.
