Filmmakers Poke Fun At ‘The Cabin in the Woods’ Delay
Bloody Disgusting regular ‘JayKah’ just tipped us off to something absolutely hilarious!
With the news that Sony will distribute the new James Bond movie, the filmmakers behind the long, long, long delayed The Cabin in the Woods have poked a bit of fun at the MGM debacle.
The Twitter account was updated with the below image that teases the “new” release date, while a Facebook campaign was set up to help get the film distribution. The campaign was prefaced with the following message on the film’s official website:
“OOPS, YOU CAN’T ENTER THE CABIN!
UNFORTUNATELY, WHILE JOSS WHEDON AND DREW GODDARD WENT AND MADE YOU — YES, YOU! — A HORROR MOVIE AT MGM, THAT STUDIO THEN WENT THROUGH A MAJOR FINANCIAL REORGANIZATION, AND THE CABIN IN THE WOODS REMAINS SHELVED UNTIL AND UNLESS SOMEONE PICKS UP THE RIGHTS TO DISTRIBUTE IT.
“BUT I WANT TO ENTER THE CABIN!”
THEN CLICK THE ABOVE LINK TO VISIT THE FACEBOOK CAMPAIGN AND “LIKE” THE IDEA THAT SOMEONE SHOULD RELEASE THE FILM. JOSS AND DREW MADE US A MOVIE! WE’VE WAITED LONG ENOUGH.”
Directed by Drew Goddard, the “high concept” creature feature stars Chris Hemsworth, Richard Jenkins, Bradley Whitford, Kristen Connolly, Anna Hutchison, Fran Kranz, Jesse Williams, and Brian White. Much like Cloverfield, which Goddard scripted, the Cabin story line provides a new twist on a classic scenario — in this case the young-people-stranded-in-the-woods horror trope.
Umbrelic Entertainment has announced the upcoming horror movie The Possession at Gladstone Manor, which will be wrapping up production later this week.
The film’s cast includes Caylee Cowan (Hypnotic), Jesse Metcalf (John Tucker Must Die), Charlotte Kirk (The Reckoning), Darren Weiss (Inside Man), Barbara Crampton (You’re Next), William Mapother (Blackhat), and Lin Shaye (Insidious franchise).
In The Possession at Gladstone Manor, “When Jamie Black discovers her mother has gone missing, she resolves to investigate by applying for the same job her mother held at Gladstone Manor. Jamie soon finds evidence that her mother isn’t the only missing person, and that she may be dealing with sinister forces beyond this world.
“Desperate, she enlists the help of her brothers – Rupert and Chris – and Sam (Chris’ fiancée): all of whom are professional criminals and former marines. Once Jamie arrives at the house, she is immediately greeted by a mysterious and evil Nurse, and soon realizes the residents of Gladstone Manor are an enemy like no other, with a dark power she’s never faced. Trapped in the house, she must rely on her brothers and future sister-in-law to save her.”
Director K. Asher Levin (Dig) co-wrote the script with Danny Matier (The Unborn), from a story by Addam Bramich. Theresa Wayman from Warpaint is composing the score.
