The Wrong Turn series of horror films is somehow one of the few current long-running franchises that still gets a new entry every few years. While most of the subsequent films since the original have been direct-to-video fare, however, the latest film to feature the Wrong Turn name will reportedly be a bigger-budgeted reboot. While there hasn’t been much news since its first announcement, the film’s cast and crew are apparently have already started shooting. The Wrong Turn reboot will be filmed in New Richmond, Ohio.

The Dark Universe was Universal’s attempt at reintroducing new versions of their classic monsters throughout a shared universe. The concept started and ended with The Mummy in 2017, and although those plans fell through, Universal is still eager to produce new monster movies. One of their more recent announcements happened to be Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man at Blumhouse. Now it seems they also have a film titled Dark Army coming from Paul Feig. While there isn’t much information to go by, it appears that Dark Army is based on an original concept thought up by Paul Feig. More specifically,…
Rob Zombie’s 3 From Hell is the long-anticipated sequel to both House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil’s Rejects. Although the two films varied quite differently from one another in style and tone, and 3 From Hell looks to do the same – they all have three major connective characters. One of which is most famously Bill Moseley’s Otis Driftwood. In a new interview Moseley reveals how he got back in the zone to portray such a disturbing villain. “I go to a lot of fan conventions and certainly Otis has stayed alive, at least in the eyes and minds…

IT: Chapter 2 is following in the footsteps of its predecessor, making a smash at the box office and instantly becoming a hit with most horror fans. One complaint, however, is that the movie appears to be too lengthy. Now with said runtime reaching nearly three hours, it may be shocking to know that director Andy Muschietti has been discussing an IT supercut featuring both chapters. If such a cut were released, it could stretch out to a stellar six and a half hours. If that doesn’t sound like a crazy enough combination, the supercut would even include footage cut…
IT: Chapter 2 has pretty much been a hefty success for Warner Bros., although much like its predecessor – there’s been a few divisive responses. However, one of the more interesting statements to come up since the film’s release, is a new complaint that the main villain Pennywise is “surprisingly anti-queer.” One particular article, hosted by the website Out.com, claims that Pennywise has somehow been celebrated as an icon for LGBTQ+ since his first appearance in 2017. As the writer Rose Dommu explains, “In the aftermath of 2017’s It, Bill Skarsgård’s Pennywise the Dancing Clown became something of a gay…
The last time there was a nationwide full moon happened on October 13, 2000. Now nearly twenty years have passed and it’s time for another full moon on Friday the 13th – this October. It’s a special occasion because it only happens once every two decades or so, and with numbers like those, the next one is estimated for August 13, 2049. At that rate it might be worth checking out this year. According to MysticalRaven, “If you’re in the Central, Mountain, or Pacific time zones, you’ll be able to this unique full moon once the sun sets, and don’t…
As was recently revealed, Saw and The Conjuring director James Wan is preparing to take another stab at the horror genre. While we know that his next project will be a R rated original concept, plot details are still unspecified. But that hasn’t stopped some details from leaking out – such as the working title Silvercup. And, better yet, the film will be taking advantage of a fantastic sub-genre. It turns out that Silvercup will in fact be a Giallo film. Bloody-Disgusting did the digging, after noticing that Giallo Films, LLC is the company under which Silvercup is being produced.…
