The Babadook S Script Was Almost Too Terrifying For Essie Davis To Handle

The Babadook’s Script Was Almost Too Terrifying For Essie Davis To Handle IFC Films By Matthew Bilodeau/March 17, 2022 12:22 pm EST With two striking features under her belt, Australian filmmaker Jennifer Kent has shown that her directorial sensibilities lie in communicating the horrors of tragedy and grief. Her second feature, “The Nightingale,” may not classify as a traditional horror film, but it features enough grueling acts of violence that it more than fits within the parameters of the genre....

The Batman S Big Cameo Can Be Traced Right Back To David Lynch

The Elephant Man Paramount Pictures “The Elephant Man” was Lynch’s second feature as a director, and was produced by the legendary comedian Mel Brooks, who offered Lynch funding after being so impressed by Lynch’s debut film, “Eraserhead.” “The Elephant Man” tells the true story of Joseph Merrick — changed to John for the film — who was born with several medical conditions that left his skin coated with tumors, his arm misshapen, and his head oversized....

The Casting Of Princess Irulan Suggests Denis Villeneuve Is Gearing Up For Dune Messiah

The Casting Of Princess Irulan Suggests Denis Villeneuve Is Gearing Up For Dune Messiah Altitude Film Distribution By Kaylee Dugan/March 10, 2022 8:50 am EST Denis Villeneuve is definitely walking the golden path. He petitioned hard for his “Dune” film to get a sequel (and even went as far as adding “Dune: Part One” to the movie’s title card) and now it looks like he’s blowing some big bucks on casting for the finally greenlit “Part Two....

The Daily Stream Army Of Darkness Excels In The Art Of Slapstick Horror

Why it’s essential viewing Universal Pictures Roger Ebert described “Army of Darkness” in his two-star review as “less like a movie than like a cardiovascular workout for its stars,” shifting from one action scene to another with “only the briefest of pauses for elementary plot details.” I can’t argue with him there, but I also can’t complain when the end result is so endlessly exhilarating and inspiredly chaotic. The film, which Raimi co-wrote with his brother Ivan Raimi, borrows from “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” for its time-travel premise, but mostly drops the social satire of Mark Twain’s novel....

The Secret War Waged Behind The Scenes Of Blade Runner

The Secret War Waged Behind The Scenes Of Blade Runner Warner Bros. Pictures By Collier Jennings/Jan. 26, 2022 10:11 am EST There’s a whole host of reasons why “Blade Runner” is regarded as one of the most compelling films ever made. There’s its masterful blend of film noir and cyberpunk tropes, the questions it raises about identity, and of course, there’s the multiple cuts of the film ranging from the theatrical cut to the “Final Cut,” where director Ridley Scott was finally able to deliver on his uncompromised vision....

5 Horror Movies To Watch If You Like Moon Knight

You Might Be the Killer Screen Media Ventures The old moral lesson goes that there are two wolves inside of every person, and whether love or hate triumphs depends on which wolf the person feeds the most. Watching Oscar Isaac flail in the space where two wolves dwell within one body (though his wolves are more like “vanilla” and “spicy”) recalls a special subgenre of horror films like “Secret Window” “Identity,” and even Alfred Hitchcock’s “Psycho....

Andor Will Take Place During The ‘Darkest Times’ Of The Star Wars Universe Lucasfilm By Jeremy Mathai/May 23, 2022 3:12 pm EST The climate surrounding online fandom has changed so much and in such a short amount of time that I have to wonder how a movie like “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” would go over today, even just 6 years removed from its original release. Spoiler alert, in case you somehow missed the $1 billion-grossing “Star Wars” spin-off/prequel film to the 1977 original: every single one of our heroes dies a horrible death by the end of the story, bummer of an endnote that was only redeemed by the appearance of a digitally de-aged Princess Leia coming into possession of the Death Star plans....

Firestarter Went As Practical As Possible For Its Explosive Special Effects

A simple favor Universal Pictures The director relied on his actors to help make those fire sequences look as real as possible, like a scene in which Charlie’s mom, Vicky (played by Sydney Lemmon), has her arms doused in flames. When breaking down this scene, Thomas said: “When Vicky’s arms go on fire, that’s really Sydney with her arms lit on fire. I had to convince Sydney to do it. When I first brought it up, she had read it in the script, and she was like, ‘Keith, what are you doing with this scene?...
