Rock Music & Goopy Practical Effects in ‘Destroy All Neighbors’ Trailer

Published

on

The heart of rock and roll is still beating in the Shudder original Destroy All Neighbors. Over-the-top practical effects are also alive in this release coming to the platform on January 12. The streamer released the official trailer and it has some pretty big names behind it.

Directed by Josh Forbes the movie stars Jonah Ray Rodrigues, Alex Winter, and Kiran Deol.

Rodrigues plays William Brown, “a neurotic, self-absorbed musician determined to finish his prog-rock magnum opus, faces a creative roadblock in the form of a noisy and grotesque neighbor named Vlad (Alex Winter). Finally working up the nerve to demand that Vlad keep it down, William inadvertently decapitates him. But, while attempting to cover up one murder, William’s accidental reign of terror causes victims to pile up and become undead corpses who torment and create more bloody detours on his road to prog-rock Valhalla. Destroy All Neighbors is a twisted splatter-comedy about a deranged journey of self-discovery full of goopy practical FX, a well-known ensemble cast, and LOTS of blood.”

Take a look at the trailer and let us know what you think!

A Boy Band Kills Our Favorite Reindeer in “I Think I Killed Rudolph”

Published

on

The new movie There’s Something in the Barn seems like a tongue-in-cheek holiday horror movie. It’s like Gremlins but bloodier and with gnomes. Now there is a song on the soundtrack that captures the humor and horror of the movie called I Think I Killed Rudolph.

The ditty is a collab between two Norwegian boy bands: Subwoofer and A1.

Subwoofer was s Eurovision entrant in 2022. A1 is a popular act from the same country. Together they killed poor Rudolph in a hit-and-run. The humorous song is a part of the film which follows a family fulfilling their dream, “of moving back after inheriting a remote cabin in the mountains of Norway.” Of course, the title gives away the rest of the movie and it turns into a home invasion — or — a gnome invasion.

There’s Something in the Barn releases in cinemas and On Demand December 1.
