A new trailer has recently dropped for the highly anticipated slasher film, “In A Violent Nature”, promising a thrilling twist on the classic genre.

Watch the new trailer for “In A Violent Nature” below:

The film centers around the enigmatic resurrection, rampage, and retribution of an undead monster named Johnny, set against the backdrop of a remote wilderness. Described by Variety as featuring “a masked killer named Johnny traipsing through the woods, camping teens, a local who escaped death years ago, [and] buckets of gore,” it promises to deliver the quintessential slasher experience with a fresh perspective.

Nash’s vision for “In A Violent Nature” goes beyond the conventional tropes of the genre. Instead of focusing solely on the victims, the narrative is primarily tethered to the perspective of the killer, providing audiences with a unique glimpse into Johnny’s reign of terror. This approach, as highlighted by Variety, allows Nash to play freely with the storytelling, offering a refreshing take on familiar themes.

Shudder, the popular streaming service known for its curated selection of horror content, is set to host “In A Violent Nature” following its theatrical run. Samuel Zimmerman of Shudder praised Nash’s clarity of vision, noting that the film blends classical slasher elements with revolutionary cinematography reminiscent of Gerald Kargl’s “Angst”. According to Zimmerman, Nash’s goal was to create an artful slasher that evolves the genre’s language while retaining its core hallmarks.

Scott Shooman, head of AMC Networks film group, emphasized the immersive experience of watching “In A Violent Nature” in theaters. He described it as a different experience, citing the film’s exceptional slasher kills and the communal thrill of sharing the cinematic journey with fellow horror enthusiasts.

Starring Ry Barrett, Andrea Pavlovic, and a talented ensemble cast, “In A Violent Nature” promises to be a standout addition to the slasher genre. With its May theatrical release date fast approaching, fans of horror cinema are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to immerse themselves in Nash’s chilling world.

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.
