English-Subbed Trailer for ‘REC’ Director’s ‘Sleep Tight’

Published

on

While Paco Plaze gets rolling on the third REC, co-creator Jaume Balagueró’s (REC, REC 2, Darkness, Fragile: A Ghost Story) is gearing up for Cannes to sell his psychological thriller Sleep Tight (formerly Flatmate), which follows the residents of the building where Cesar works as a doorman are not aware of the overtime he has been putting in.

We’ve got an English-subbed teaser trailer that shares with us the first ever footage. How can you not be excited to see what Balagueró has up his sleeve?
We all know who our friends are but what about our acquaintances? Those people who play a small part in our everyday lives, how well do we really know them? And how well do they know us?

Marcos works as a doorman in a Barcelona apartment building. Happiness eludes him and he feels the need to reaffirm his reasons for living on a daily basis. He goes about his day to day work mainly unnoticed by the residents of the building, but he pays close attention to them. He knows all the intimate details of their lives, everything about them, especially one of them. Clara King is a happy-go-lucky young woman, who always looks on the positive side of things. Her cheery attitude to life makes Marcos’ skin crawl. He won’t be happy until he has wiped that smile of her face once and for all, because Marcos feeds off other people’s pain. He delights in the unhappiness and anguish of others and he loves nothing more than to plant the seed of misery and watch it grow. In Clara he has found the perfect target, and he will go to extreme lengths to make her life miserable. But Marcos is starting to get a bit too cocky, and soon his carefully thought out plans will start to unravel…

Luckily for him, he has one last ace up his sleeve.

‘Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 3’ Has Been Officially Confirmed

Published

on

Blood and Honey 3

The twisted “Poohniverse” expands with Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey II, now playing in U.S. theaters through tonight only, and a third installment is on the way soon.

Variety confirms this morning that Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 3 has been given the green light, with Jagged Edge Productions officially ordering up the third film.

Variety notes, “According to the producers, Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 3 will have a bigger budget than the previous films and will introduce new characters from the original Winnie-the-Pooh stories, including Rabbit, the heffalumps and the woozles.”

We also know that in addition to Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 3, the team is conjuring up horror movies based on Bambi, Peter Pan, Pinocchio, Sleeping Beauty and more.

The end game? They actually do have one in mind! As we recently learned, all these individual movies will pave the way for Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble in 2025.

In that movie, all the monsters team up to take down the world. Naturally.

The good news for the team is that Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey II has won over even some of the harshest critics of the first film, with most agreeing it’s a huge step up in quality.

Paul Le wrote in his review right here on Bloody Disgusting, “This flawed but enjoyable sequel defies expectations — albeit low ones — and outperforms its predecessor on most levels.”

“On top of a better story, Blood and Honey II benefits from higher production values,” Paul’s review continues. “The detailed creature designs and suits are more convincing than before; they don’t just look like actors in masks anymore. The extra funding also allows for elaborate set-pieces, including a rave-set mass murder and a brief but exciting chainsaw sequence.”

Tonight is the final night to see Blood and Honey II in theaters, as the Fathom Events run was for March 26 – March 28 only. So if you want to see it on the big screen, get out there tonight.
