The New Myers and Voorhees Battle in ‘Compound Fracture’
Tyler Mane, the latest incarnation of Michael Myers, has launched a production company (MANE Entertainment) as is set to star in his own Compound Fracture. Also starring is the fresh face of Friday the 13th, Derek Mears, alongside Muse Watson (I Know What You Did Last Summer). After the break you’ll find a sales poster and text-based trailer for the A.J. Rickert-Epstein-directed horror flick. Todd Farmer, Susan Angelo, Renae Geerlings, Dan Roebuck and Alex Saxon also star.
“Michael Silna has just gotten custody of his only sister’s son after she was murdered by her husband before his very eyes.
To fulfill his sister’s dying wish, Michael takes his nephew and wife and makes the journey home to his only other living relative: his estranged, eccentric (and extremely paranoid) father who is obsessed with building an unassailable compound.
Once there, Michael hopes to repair his shattered family, but instead he finds that they are all trapped inside his father’s creation when the ghost of his vengeful brother-in-law returns to wipe out the rest of the Silna family.”
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
