‘Before The Fire’ Trailer Teases People Are More Dangerous Than Any Pandemic

With perfect timing, Dark Sky Films has released the trailer for the pandemic thriller Before The Fire, the debut feature of Charlie Buhler. Jenna Lyng Adams of “The Kominsky Method,” wrote and stars in the film that follows Ava Boone (Adams), a Hollywood actress whose rising career is cut short when a pandemic influenza sends her back to the small town she fled years before, only to find something more dangerous than any virus waiting for her.

Audiences are thirsty for unconventional, layered and imperfect women on-screen.

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. I’ve also been juggling a couple of other projects, one of which I was supposed to do this summer, but now, with COVID, of course, that’s up on the air. But,

‘The Wretched’s’ Release Expands To 45 More Drive-Ins This Weekend

IFC Midnight announced today that their witchy horror film The Wretched‘s release is expanding by adding 45 more Drive-Ins to their list this weekend! We also have a treat, a behind the scene video to share with you that features the cast discussing their roles. The Wretched, which we called “a film that deserves to be seen.” in our review, is from Brett Pierce and Drew Pierce, the writing-directing team behind the zombie cult hit Deadheads. Starring John-Paul Howard (Hell or High Water) and Piper Curda (I Didn’t Do It), the film centers on a rebellious teenage boy, Ben, who is sent to live with his father for the summer and work at the local marina in order to gain some form of discipline. The idyllic tourist town offers little solace for him, however, as he is forced to deal with the local, privileged teens and his father’s new girlfriend. Ben’s problems grow increasingly disturbing when he makes a chilling

A Family Must Come Together To Survive In New ‘Relic’ Trailer

A new teaser trailer has arrived for writer-director Natalie Erika James‘ haunting horror film Relic ahead of its July release. When elderly mother Edna (Robyn Nevin) inexplicably vanishes, her daughter Kay (Emily Mortimer) and granddaughter Sam (Bella Heathcote) rush to their family’s decaying country home, finding clues of her increasing dementia scattered around the house in her absence. After Edna returns just as mysteriously as she disappeared, Kay’s concern that her mother seems unwilling or unable to say where she clashes with Sam’s unabashed enthusiasm to have her grandma back.

Movie Review: ‘The Fanatic’ Will Leave You Asking WTF Did I Just Watch?

The Fanatic…where do I start? John Travolta stars as “Moose”, an autistic man who collects autographs and movie memorabilia. Obsessed with actor Hunter Dubar (Devon Sawa), “Moose” will stop at nothing to get close to his favorite actor. Travolta, rocking a terrible mullet, mimics what I assume he thinks is the way an autistic man would talk and act. Within the first few minutes I felt gross just for watching it. Now, don’t get me wrong, it’s not the fact that Travolta impersonates an autistic person, it’s the way that he did it. It just feels off and it is extremely one dimensional. For example, Leonardo Di Caprio in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape was brilliant. That’s how that’s done. Written and directed by Fred Durst (yes, that Fred Durst, the one from Limp Bizkit) the movie left me wondering what Durst’s original vision was and if this is close. Maybe he did it all for the nooky. Sorry, that was
