Double Murder Podcast Event: ‘Bram Stoker’s Dracula’ vs. ‘Twilight’
They’ve covered controversial movies. They’ve had controversial opinions (especially in regards to Rob Zombie). But now, Danny! and Tim have made their most controversial episode of Double Murder ever: “Bram Stoker’s Dracula vs. Twilight!!!”
Bram Stoker’s Dracula was not Francis Ford Coppola’s first horror movie, but it was certainly his grandest. It included an all-star cast (in spite of Keanu Reeves), including a masterful performance by Gary Oldman as Count Dracula. But how does it hold up over time, and does it have enough to stand up to the newcomer: Twilight? Released in 2008, Twilight caused quite a stir by mixing the vampire genre with teen romance. However, after grossing almost $400 million worldwide, it can be described as nothing short of a phenomenon. Has Stephanie Meyer’s modern take on the vampire genre come to de-throne Bram Stoker’s classic tale!?
Tune in to Double Murder below to find out!
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
