Terror Films will Re-Release Adam Robitel’s ‘The Taking of Deborah Logan’

The Taking of Deborah Logan was easily one of the most talked about films of 2014. Its bold imagery and intelligent storytelling was terrifying and it captured viewers who turned it into a viral sensation.

Unfortunately, in the U.S., it only received distribution on Netflix which lasted until 2016, and since that time it’s become more and more difficult to find a copy of the film. Thanks to a new deal with Terror Films, however, fans will be seeing a lot more of Deborah Logan in the future.

Written by Adam Robitel and Gavin Heffernan with Robitel also serving as director, The Taking of Deborah Logan concerns a medical student making a documentary about the long term effects of Alzheimer’s both on the patient and the caregivers.

She and her crew find much more than they bargained for when they enter the home of Deborah Logan, however, and what starts out as a typical case study soon turns to terror as they discover that Alzheimer’s might be the least of this family’s concerns.

The Taking of Deborah Logan

Terror Films released a newly designed poster for their upcoming re-release of The Taking of Deborah Logan.

The film boasted a talented cast of actors including long-time All My Children star Jill Larson in the title role and Anne Ramsay (A League of Their Own) as her daughter, Sarah Logan.

It was recently announced that the film would be making its debut on Shudder later this month. That announcement garnered a lot of excitement among horror fans and other filmmakers including Guillermo del Toro who took to Twitter to share the news about the film’s inclusion.

It appears that Terror Films will take the film to more streaming services in the coming weeks including iTunes, Amazon, Roku, VUDU, TUBI TV, and Google Play though they have not issued specific dates for those platforms as of yet.

“My partner Jim Klock, myself and our entire team are thrilled to have been trusted by the producers to reintroduce The Taking of Deborah Logan to the horror fans,” Terror Films president Joe Dain said in a press release issued this morning. “It’s a fantastic film that we believe will be incredibly well received by the horror community and beyond.”

iHorror will keep you posted on all the latest news about this re-release at details become available. In the meantime, you can visit the Terror Films official website and follow The Taking of Deborah Logan on the film’s official Facebook page.

Netflix Releases First BTS ‘Fear Street: Prom Queen’ Footage

It’s been three long years since Netflix unleashed the bloody, but enjoyable Fear Street on its platform. Released in a tryptic fashion, the streamer broke up the story into three episodes, each taking place in a different decade which by the finale were all tied together.

Now, the streamer is in production for its sequel Fear Street: Prom Queen which brings the story into the 80s. Netflix gives a synopsis of what to expect from Prom Queen on their blog site Tudum:

“Welcome back to Shadyside. In this next installment of the blood-soaked Fear Street franchise, prom season at Shadyside High is underway and the school’s wolfpack of It Girls is busy with its usual sweet and vicious campaigns for the crown. But when a gutsy outsider is unexpectedly nominated to the court, and the other girls start mysteriously disappearing, the class of ’88 is suddenly in for one hell of a prom night.” 

Based on R.L. Stine’s massive series of Fear Street novels and spin-offs, this chapter is number 15 in the series and was published in 1992.

Fear Street: Prom Queen features a killer ensemble cast, including India Fowler (The Nevers, Insomnia), Suzanna Son (Red Rocket, The Idol), Fina Strazza (Paper Girls, Above the Shadows), David Iacono (The Summer I Turned Pretty, Cinnamon), Ella Rubin (The Idea of You), Chris Klein (Sweet Magnolias, American Pie), Lili Taylor (Outer Range, Manhunt) and Katherine Waterston (The End We Start From, Perry Mason).

No word on when Netflix will drop the series into its catalog.

Scooby Doo Live Action Netflix

The ghosthunting Great Dane with an anxiety problem, Scooby-Doo, is getting a reboot and Netflix is picking up the tab. Variety is reporting that the iconic show is becoming an hour-long series for the streamer although no details have been confirmed. In fact, Netflix execs declined to comment.

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!

If the project is a go, this would be the first live-action movie based on the Hanna-Barbera cartoon since 2018’s Daphne & Velma. Before that, there were two theatrical live-action movies, Scooby-Doo (2002) and Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (2004), then two sequels that premiered on The Cartoon Network.

Currently, the adult-oriented Velma is streaming on Max.

Scooby-Doo originated in 1969 under the creative team Hanna-Barbera. The cartoon follows a group of teenagers who investigate supernatural happenings. Known as Mystery Inc., the crew consists of Fred Jones, Daphne Blake, Velma Dinkley, and Shaggy Rogers, and his best friend, a talking dog named Scooby-Doo.

Normally the episodes revealed the hauntings they encountered were hoaxes developed by land-owners or other nefarious characters hoping to scare people away from their properties. The original TV series named Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! ran from 1969 to 1986. It was so successful that movie stars and pop culture icons would make guest appearances as themselves in the series.

Celebrities such as Sonny & Cher, KISS, Don Knotts, and The Harlem Globetrotters made cameos as did Vincent Price who portrayed Vincent Van Ghoul in a few episodes.
