‘Monsternado’ Unleashes a Storm of Terrifying Creatures in New Trailer

Published

Monsternado

The horror genre is no stranger to outlandish concepts, and the latest to join the ranks is Monsternado. Uncork’d Entertainment recently unveiled the official trailer, promising a whirlwind of monstrous proportions.

Monsternado is not just any tornado; as its logline intriguingly puts it, it “fills a tornado with ALL of the scariest creatures.” Set to premiere on digital platforms this coming November, the film is the brainchild of the filmmaker behind the Loch Ness Monster movie, another Uncork’d Entertainment production. Of course the trailer looks ridiculous, but in the kind of way that still looks like a lot of fun to watch. Watch the trailer below:

Drawing parallels to the cult favorite Sharknado, Monsternado takes the concept up a notch. Instead of just airborne sharks, audiences will witness a maelstrom of megalodons, giant squids, krakens, man-eating spiders, and a host of other terrifying creatures. These beasts are not just swirling around; they are catapulted towards a coastal city from waterspouts, reaching staggering speeds of 300 miles per hour.

Keith Leopard, the Studio president, couldn’t contain his excitement about the film. He lauded it as “another fantastic film from Tyler James and emphasized its captivating nature, saying it is “fun, frightening and brimming with some very cool special effects sequences.”

Monsternado is set to storm onto Digital and DVD platforms on November 14.

Trailer for ‘The Exorcism’ Has Russell Crowe Possessed

Published

on

The latest exorcism movie is about to drop this summer. It’s aptly titled The Exorcism and it stars Academy Award winner turned B-movie savant Russell Crowe. The trailer dropped today and by the looks of it, we are getting a possession movie that takes place on a movie set.

Just like this year’s recent demon-in-media-space film Late Night With the Devil, The Exorcism happens during a production. Although the former takes place on a live network talk show, the latter is on an active sound stage. Hopefully, it won’t be entirely serious and we’ll get some meta chuckles out of it.

The film will open in theaters on June 7, but since Shudder also acquired it, it probably won’t be long after that until it finds a home on the streaming service.

Crowe plays, “Anthony Miller, a troubled actor who begins to unravel while shooting a supernatural horror film. His estranged daughter, Lee (Ryan Simpkins), wonders if he’s slipping back into his past addictions or if there’s something more sinister at play. The film also stars Sam Worthington, Chloe Bailey, Adam Goldberg and David Hyde Pierce.”

Crowe did see some success in last year’s The Pope’s Exorcist mostly because his character was so over-the-top and infused with such comical hubris it bordered on parody. We will see if that is the route actor-turned-director Joshua John Miller takes with The Exorcism.

Perhaps the Scariest, Most Disturbing Series of The Year

Published

on

You may have never heard of Richard Gadd, but that will probably change after this month. His mini-series Baby Reindeer just hit Netflix and it’s a terrifying deep dive into abuse, addiction, and mental illness. What is even scarier is that it’s based on Gadd’s real-life hardships.

The crux of the story is about a man named Donny Dunn played by Gadd who wants to be a stand-up comedian, but it’s not working out so well thanks to stage fright stemming from his insecurity.

One day at his day job he meets a woman named Martha, played to unhinged perfection by Jessica Gunning, who is instantly charmed by Donny’s kindness and good looks. It doesn’t take long before she nicknames him “Baby Reindeer” and begins to relentlessly stalk him. But that is just the apex of Donny’s problems, he has his own incredibly disturbing issues.

This mini-series should come with a lot of triggers, so just be warned it is not for the faint of heart. The horrors here don’t come from blood and gore, but from physical and mental abuse that go beyond any physiological thriller you may have ever seen.

“It’s very emotionally true, obviously: I was severely stalked and severely abused,” Gadd said to People, explaining why he changed some aspects of the story. “But we wanted it to exist in the sphere of art, as well as protect the people it’s based on.”

The series has gained momentum thanks to positive word-of-mouth, and Gadd is getting used to the notoriety.

“It’s clearly struck a chord,” he told The Guardian. “I really did believe in it, but it’s taken off so quickly that I do feel a bit windswept.”

You can stream Baby Reindeer on Netflix right now.
