Paramount Insurge Asks You To Book ‘The Loved Ones’ At Your Local Theatre
Paramount’s Insurge label has announced that The Loved Ones will be available exclusively through Tugg this June. Tugg is “an innovative collective action web platform that enables individuals to choose the films that play at local theaters.” Check it out here.
In a nutshell, it basically allows you to hold your own screening of the film at a theatre of your choosing. There’s an RSVP minimum and a few other things to take into consideration, but it’s definitely unique. The FP, another great film, is using the same strategy starting March 6th. I wonder if I could get an FP/Loved Ones double feature going in June… In any case, like Paranormal Activity‘s Demand-It program, this is a really good way to get screenings going in towns that otherwise would be skipped over.
Don’t forget: there’s a Tugg-sponsored screening tonight at the Alamo Drafthouse Village at 9pm.
“Lola Stone asked Brent Mitchell to the prom, but Brent said no, and now he’s screwed. What happens when Lola doesn’t get what she wants? She enlists Daddy’s help to throw a prom of her own, where she is queen and Brent is king — whether he likes it or not. ‘The Loved Ones’ is what happens when puppy love goes horribly, violently wrong. Brent should have said yes….”
Jessica McNamee, Richard Wilson, Victoria Thaine, Xavier Samuel, John Brumpton, Robin McLeavy all star.
Like Damien Leone’s Terrifier 2 before it, upcoming slasher movie In a Violent Nature is being released into theaters on May 31 in its UNRATED form, we’ve learned this morning.
The unique arthouse slasher movie frames the slayings from the killer’s perspective, and audiences have already been losing their minds at the gory kills during preview screenings.
IFC Films will release In a Violent Nature exclusively in theaters on May 31, 2024, and you can expect the film to make its at-home debut on streaming service Shudder soon.
While you wait, check out a retro lobby card for the film’s theatrical release below.
In the film, “When a locket is removed from a collapsed fire tower in the woods that entombs the rotting corpse of Johnny, a vengeful spirit spurred on by a horrific 60-year old crime, his body is resurrected and becomes hellbent on retrieving it. The undead golem hones in on the group of vacationing teens responsible for the theft and proceeds to methodically slaughter them one by one in his mission to get it back – along with anyone in his way.”
Chris Nash wrote and directed In a Violent Nature. Ry Barrett, Andrea Pavlovic, Cameron Love, Reece Presley, Liam Leone, Charlotte Creaghan, Lea Rose Sebastianis, Sam Roulston, Alexander Oliver, and Lauren Taylor star in the slasher film.
“In a Violent Nature is a tremendous new slasher. We’re thrilled for you to meet Johnny, whose reign of terror honors the iconic subgenre while taking audiences on a singular and brutal new journey within it,” said Samuel Zimmerman, Shudder’s vice president of programming. “Chris Nash’s bold perspective represents the best of Shudder, marrying the genre’s traditions with its exhilarating next steps.”
Meagan Navarro wrote in her Sundance review for Bloody Disgusting, “In a Violent Nature may offer slasher thrills and a delightfully gory rampage across the wilderness, but Nash’s approach captures the carnage through ambient realism. It results in a fascinating arthouse horror experiment that plays more like a minimalist slice-of-life feature with a grim twist.”
