As we all know, the next adaptation of Stephen King’s IT hits theaters next month. And to follow through with that, Warner Bros. is fueling their marketing campaign in all directions. This campaign now includes a virtual reality sequence titled IT: Float VR. A “cinematic experience” created by Sunnyboy Entertainment, it allows fans to explore the streets of Derry… and into the sewers below them.

Check out the disturbing sequence below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bDTSzavYdE&feature=youtu.be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHUErvVAeIw&feature=youtu.be It fits in with what Stephen King’s son Joe Hill has had to say…

While some fans may be ecstatic to have Ridley Scott directing Alien films again since his first 1979 venture, some can’t help but think how James Cameron must feel.

While the behind the scenes photo Dougherty recently posted to Twitter doesn’t reveal any monsters, it’s still rather exciting. If you’ve seen the original Godzilla, you’ll recognize the weapon as the Oxygen Destroyer. It was used…

The marketing campaign for Andy Muschietti’s upcoming film IT just keeps on giving. This time we get a new shot of Bill Skarsgård’s Pennywise amidst footage we’ve seen already. It’s a very surreal shot with a rather painting-esque quality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1K1TqVuMno&feature=youtu.be It also fits in with what Stephen King’s son Joe Hill has had to say in the past: “Andres’ adaptation of IT is one of the 5 scariest films ever made,” Hill exclaimed. “It’s tremendously humane. You love the characters in it. But it is just relentlessly terrifying.” He continued: “Only Jaws, The Exorcist, John Carpenter’s The Thing and Let…

It looks like Swedish film director David F. Sandberg has some cult favorites in mind to reboot. Now that his latest film Annabelle: The Creation is out, along with 2016’s Lights Out, it’s clear the director is making a name for himself in the horror genre. And in a new discussion regarding his latest film, he’s listed two franchises he’d love to revamp. “I’ve been thinking about what fun franchises New Line has like A Nightmare on Elm Street and Critters. Might be fun if you took something like that in a different direction from previous installments. Like instead of…

Once it was announced that actress Milla Jovovich was starring in the upcoming Hellboy reboot as the Blood Queen, many fans noticed that the title seemed to drop the “Rise of the Blood Queen” subtitle.

The film is considered a reboot of the 2004 Hellboy, and is going by the same name.” Aside from Milla Jovovich, Neil Marshall’s reboot will also include Ian McShane…

If you haven’t seen the latest issue of Empire, you may be surprised to know there’s a rather interesting bit on the upcoming IT adaptation. Many fans have been skeptical about actor Bill Skarsgård taking the role of Pennywise – as legendary star Tim Curry was both first and last to wear the makeup. Now Skarsgård has revealed to Empire what he intends to do with the role: “In order for this movie to be as effective as the book and the series, I have to scare a whole generation.
