Every few years Dimension comes up with a new Hellraiser film to keep their rights to the franchise from falling out of their hands. The last one was Hellraiser: Revelations from 2011, and now it seems another is coming in the form of Hellraiser: Judgment. The movie will feature Heather Langenkamp who starred as Nancy in the original A Nightmare On Elm Street, and will be directed by Gary Tunnicliffe who’s worked on the effects for the franchise since the third movie. Unfortunately the film is recasting the role of Pinhead and this is what Tunnicliffe had to say on…

Good Morning America had the leads of Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill, appear on their show. Affleck, who’s playing Batman in the new movie, revealed that he got some advice from two actors who had previously played the character – George Clooney and Christian Bale.

Ryan Reynolds originally wanted Wolverine to play a part in the new Deadpool movie, and he also wanted Taskmaster to feature as a villain. When Reynolds was speaking with Empire for the Deadpool Spoiler Special Podcast, he explained that there were “endless” debates with 20th Century Fox executives about which X-Men characters they could and were going to use. “Taskmaster was in the script originally. Too expensive. We had versions where Hugh Jackman was in there, but it just becomes a big mess for the studio – schedules, money, everything,” Reynolds had said. He continued by saying they went through…

Todd McFarlane, the man who created the Spawn character and comic book series, has just announced that he’s finished the script for a new Spawn film. He says he’s going to trim it down before he sends it around Hollywood and that he’s at “183 pages” and hopes to cut it down to about “140”. It seems this is because he wants to direct the new movie and that the smaller story will benefit both in catching people’s attention and help keep the budget low. “I want to keep it small, keep it tight, so they’ll let me direct it!”…

If there’s any film that deserved to become a major horror franchise, it’s Jeepers Creepers – a huge hit which managed so far to spawn only one sequel. But it looks like Jeepers Creepers 3 is happening soon. The film is headed to the upcoming EFM in Berlin and it’s planned to have the original writer/director from the first two movies, Victor Salva, helm this new entry. It is also expected to have Myriad Pictures produce the film like they did the first two, with Francis Ford Coppola, Kirk Shaw, and Stan Spry producing while Kirk D’Amico is executive producing.…

The 1980’s and 1990’s had many horror franchises to offer – Halloween, Friday The 13th, A Nightmare On Elm Street, Hellraiser, Child’s Play, and so forth. What about the 2000’s? Not so much. The only franchise that could truly meet that level would be the Saw series which premiered in 2004. The first film was created by James Wan and Leigh Whannell. It was then followed by a sequel each year after until Saw: 3D in 2010, where the franchise was said to have ended. But, after years of murmurs about a new movie, it appears that Lionsgate has began to…

A few months ago we were treated to an announcement from Gun Media for a new Friday The 13th video game; the first since 1989. It was stated the game would focus on asymmetrical multiplayer. Originally titled Slasher Vol. 1: Summer Camp, it sought to be a tribute to 1980’s slasher flicks. The developers gathered the help of Friday The 13th alumni Tom Savini, Kane Hodder, and Harry Manfredini. Eventually it came to the attention of Sean Cunningham, the director of the original Friday The 13th, who allowed the developers the right to use the successful franchise for their game. The announcement was followed soon…

Harley Quinn Smith, the daughter of director Kevin Smith, revealed a recent story of when she was almost kidnapped by two men. She was standing outside of a Starbucks waiting for her Uber when two men pulled up insisting that they were her ride.

Gremlins was a 1984 dark comedy about a young man who gets a strange creature for a present, which leads him to unwillingly unleash a breed of monsters on his town. It was immensely successful because of its strong characters, beautiful soundtrack, and terrific use of practical effects. And six years later, in 1990, it finally received a sequel – Gremlins 2: The New Batch. Ever since then the series has been quiet, with news and rumors of a third film occasionally popping up. And in a world where reboots are the norm, talk of a new Gremlins movie has…
