'Dead Birds' Writer, 'Pop Skull' Director Team for 'A Horrible Way to Die', Mr. Disgusting Produces?! Posted 10 Minutes ago In the interest of full disclosure (something numerous web writers fail to do), I am the associate producer of a new independent production entitled A Horrible Way to Die, a thriller penned by Simon Barrett (Dead Birds, Red Sands), directed by Adam Wingard (Pop Skull) and produced by Travis Stevens. Genre fav A.J. Bowen (The Signal, The House of the Devil and the forthcoming Hatchet 2), Amy Seimetz (Alexander the Last) and Joe Swanberg (Nights and Weekends) will star. Story details can be found inside, but before you go there I’d like to make a quick statement: Shill (or fake) feedback sickens me to my stomach (as it happens way to often), so I want to be clear with you dear readers; my relationship to the project is to the extent that I had a group of talented friends who I brought into a room, and got talking. It worked out and thus, here we are. You will see coverage for the film on the site (and hopefully others), but at no point will we review or push an opinion of the product here on the site as I personally deem that unethical and unacceptable. That will be for you and the rest of the world to do. So there it is, go gangbusters on me. Get the full details and first image below, and then tell us what you think would be the most horrible way to die...

Tentative Release Date for 'Night of the Demons' Remake Posted 6 Hours 8 Minutes ago For those of you wondering when you might be able to see Adam Gierasch and Jace Anderson's punk rock Night of the Demons redo, the director tells Dread Central that they're aiming for a September 23, 2010 release, while adding that they'd like to run a few concerts alongside it. "Hopefully we’ll be able to do some concerts to celebrate the release," said Geirasch, whose directorial debut was the 2008 film Autopsy. "We are definitely going to do (one) in L.A., and maybe New York, and I can’t guarantee it, but I hope New Orleans because that is where the movie takes place and where we shot it." Diora Baird, Shannon Elizabeth, Monica Keena, Bobbi Sue Luther, Jonathan Beach, Michael Copon, Tiffany Shepis and Edward Furlong all star in the remake that takes a group of kids into a demonically possessed house for one hell of a Halloween party.

Paramount announced today the launch of their new division, Insurge Pictures, which has one million dollars fueling its films. 10 movies are on tap in the first year at a budget of just $100,000 each. "We want to find and distribute crazy, unpredictable, and hopefully awesome movies - movies that make you want to line up to see at your local theater with all your friends (and us)," the soon-to-be-launched website proclaims. "Movies that a big studio would never release because they’re too risky, too silly, and they don’t star Sandra Bullock." Watch for an update with an official announcement later today. Insurgepictures.com will launch soon.

When the friend falls ill, they take her to a hospital but end up trapped in a labyrinthine haunted house. Shimizu is best known for his Ju-On (The Grudge) films, along with my personal fav, Marebito.

Apparently, there are some incredibly brutal scenes that involve violence against women. With the hype, and an incredible cast - Casey Affleck, Jessica Alba, Elias Koteas, Kate Hudson, Bill Pullman, Ned Beatty and even Simon Baker - IFC Films snatched up the rights to the sucker with plans on releasing it this summer. Until then, check out a pretty boring clip. I'm sure the goods are forthcoming. Published in 1952, "The Killer Inside Me" concerns a deputy sheriff in a West Texas town whose kind Everyman demeanor masks his true dark self. He is slowly revealed as a psychotic killer.

With only a lighter and a cell phone it's a race against time to escape this claustrophobic death trap. Lionsgate has locked down a September 24, 2010 date, so start planning your escape now.

The star of the forthcoming She's Out of My League, and other comedies such as Tropic Thunder, Knocked Up and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, exclaimed that his sole inspiration is David Cronenberg and that he dreams of a career in horror. Will Pig ever get behind camera? I'd hope so if he's planning on delivering more gore in the future. Get the skinny inside.

Posted March 10, 2010 @ 5:47 To go along with yesterday's report, yet another Predators star spoke out about the prequel arriving in theaters July 9. In short, Repo Men star Alice Braga thinks that the Nimrod Antel directed film will be PG-13, although she doesn't know how. "I don't know that, I think they might try to do PG-13, but I'm not sure," Braga tells participants in this past weekend's press conference. "I'm not sure, I hope not actually. You know what, I think they [might] not [be able to do it PG-13] because there are some dark scenes in it, like the other films. So I think it's going to be R. But going back to [a previous] question about editing, we never know what's going to happen. But it looks really dark and really nice. I think, I had fun." What say you?

As a kid of the 80's, I grew up watching The Lost Boys, Dream a Little Dream and License to Drive over and over again, especially when I played hooky from school (these movies were always playing on my local cable station). After we write up the earlier news item, Bloody Disgusting's Jonathan Dornellas e-mailed me with the same sentiment asking to write a special goodbye. Here it is.

Posted March 10, 2010 @ 1:47 You've seen the very not work safe trailer, and you've heard the general buzz around the web, Srdjan Spasojevic's A Serbian Film is straight-up f*cked. Playing as part of the SX Fantastic lineup at this weekend's SXSW Film Festival (programmed by Fantastic Fest), Bloody Disgusting scored an exclusive look at the domestic one sheet for the film set to raise eyebrows.

In addition, below you'll find a small look at the first theatrical poster that exclaims: "Don't let your ex-girlfriend suck the life out of you!" An out of work lothario, Julian Marsh, scores a break as the director of an off-Broadway play. The play is a bizarre adaptation of Hamlet written by a pale Romanian who is actually a master vampire. A perfect combination of low-brow humor and high-brow aesthetics, this comedy/horror film follows an eccentric cast of characters to explain the connection between Hamlet, the Holy Grail, and some very sexy vampires.

Corey Haim, a 1980s teen heartthrob (and in my opinion, the better of the "two Coreys") for his roles in Lucas, License to Drive, Silver Bullet and The Lost Boys whose career was blighted by drug abuse, has died, reports USA Today. He was 38. Haim died at 2:15 a.m. Wednesday at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, Los Angeles County coroner's Lt. Cheryl MacWillie said. An autopsy will determine the cause of death and there were no other details, she said. Police Sgt. Michael Kammert said there's no evidence of foul play. In celebration of his life, I will be driving without my license all week and will be rocking to Bill Ocean's "Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car". Get your say in below.
