Cannes: New Chinese Slasher Pic ‘Dream Home’
Variety just reported on a new Chinese slasher film that was filmed right under our nose. Fortissimo Films has boarded Hong Kong helmer Pang Ho-cheung’s slasher pic Dream Home, which tells the story of a young woman who goes to extreme measures when she can no longer afford her dream home. Start-up shingle 852 Films is producing the pic, for which Fortissimo is handling worldwide sales, excluding Hong Kong. “Dream Home,” which is in post-production, stars Josie Ho (“Exiled”) and Anthony Wong (“Infernal Affairs”), Eason Chan, Michelle Ye Suen, Lawrence Chou, Derek Tsang, Juno Mak, Sin Lap Man, Wong Ching and Lo Hoi Pang. “We’re hoping with ‘Dream Home’ to have a repeat of the success we previously enjoyed in the genre zone with the ‘Eye’ films,” commented Fortissimo co-chairman Michael J. Werner.
Take your seats. The show is about to begin. Warner Bros. brings us some new marketing for M. Night Shyamalan’s Trap this morning, including a new poster and an original song.
Saleka Shyamalan stars in the upcoming thriller as fictional pop star Lady Raven, and today brings us a first-listen preview of the song “Release” by Saleka as Lady Raven.
Give it a listen right here and find the new official poster for Trap down below.
M. Night Shyamalan’s new thriller for Warner Bros. – the sixteenth movie in his Oscar-nominated career thus far – is headed to movie theaters nationwide on August 9, 2024.
In the upcoming thriller starring Josh Hartnett, “A father and teen daughter attend a pop concert, where they realize they’re at the center of a dark and sinister event.”
As the official trailer for Trap reveals, the pop concert is actually an elaborate trap designed to catch The Butcher, a sadistic serial killer who has been evading authorities.
Hartnett had recently described the mysterious film as “very bizarre” and “very dark.”
According to IMDb, the cast for Trap also includes Hayley Mills, Marnie McPhail, Vanessa Smythe, Saleka Shyamalan, Scott Ian MacDougall, Kristi Woods, and Cali Lorella.
Trap is the first film Shyamalan has made under his new deal with Warner Bros., which has been described as a “multi-year first-look directing and producing agreement.”
