Horrific Manson Family Murderer Leslie Van Houten Being Released

Published

on

After 40 years in prison, Leslie Van Houten is being released from prison. The former Manson Family Cult member is 73 years old. Leslie Houten was found to be eligible for parole earlier this month, her release was not challenged by state officials in California.

Like many of the other members of the Manson Family, Leslie claims that she was brainwashed by the charismatic Charles Manson. Manson has been made larger than life by the media, resulting in several movies and many more books written about the cult leader.

Leslie Houten was charged with the double homicide of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca. In her trial, she admitted to being involved in the murders. She stated that she held down Rosemary Labianca while she was killed, then proceeded to stab the corpse after her death.

The time served and Leslie Houten’s behavior were major factors in this decision. The courts did decide that she is no longer a threat to herself or others. Governor Newsom had previously rejected her attempts at parole. This time he allowed the process to go through.

Leslie Houten will make the transition into a halfway home and begin her adjustment to the modern world. Much has changed in the past forty years, and she will likely need help in understanding how things work now.

Some of the public may have a hard time accepting this decision. But Lelsie Houten has expressed remorse for her crimes and was a model prisoner during her time served. We will have to wait and see how much of the Manson Family Cult still resides within her.

Shelter in Place, New ‘A Quiet Place: Day One’ Trailer Drops

Published

on

The third installment of the A Quiet Place franchise is set to release only in theaters on June 28. Even though this one is minus John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, it still looks terrifyingly magnificent.

This entry is said to be a spin-off and not a sequel to the series, although it’s technically more a prequel. The wonderful Lupita Nyong’o takes center stage in this movie, along with Joseph Quinn as they navigate through New York City under siege by bloodthirsty aliens.

The official synopsis, as if we need one, is “Experience the day the world went quiet.” This, of course, refers to the quick-moving aliens who are blind but have an enhanced sense of hearing.

Under the direction of Michael Sarnoski (Pig) this apocalyptic suspense thriller will be released the same day as the first chapter in Kevin Costner’s three-part epic western Horizon: An American Saga.

Which one will you see first?

“In a Violent Nature” So Gory Audience Member Throws Up During Screening

in a violent nature horror movie

Chis Nash (ABC’s of Death 2) just debuted his new horror film, In a Violent Nature, at the Chicago Critics Film Fest. Based on the audience’s reaction, those with squeamish stomachs may want to bring a barf bag to this one.

Thats right, we have another horror film that is causing audience members to walk out of the screening. According to a report from Film Updates at least one audience member threw up in the middle of the film. You can hear audio of the audience reaction to the film below.

In a Violent Nature

This is far from the first horror film to claim this kind of audience reaction. However, early reports of In a Violent Nature indicates that this film may be just that violent. The film promises to reinvent the slasher genre by telling the story from the killer’s perspective.

Here is the official synopsis for the film. When a group of teens takes a locket from a collapsed fire tower in the woods, they unwittingly resurrect the rotting corpse of Johnny, a vengeful spirit spurred on by a horrific 60-year old crime. The undead killer soon embarks on a bloody rampage to retrieve the stolen locket, methodically slaughtering anyone who gets in his way.

While we will have to wait and see if In a Violent Nature lives up to all of its hype, recent responses on X offer nothing but praise for the film. One user even makes the bold claim that this adaptation is like an arthouse Friday the 13th.

In a Violent Nature will receive a limited theatrical run starting May 31, 2024. The film will then be released on Shudder sometime later in the year. Make sure to check out the promo images and trailer below.
