The film is a hit with critics and fans alike, currently Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes with a 90% critic score and a 93% audience score as of this writing. Of the 20 new movies that opened in theaters last night, Terrifier 2 performed the second best. To understand this better, the film averaged $453 per theater (on Thursday), which is only second to Paramount’s wide-release Smile. The chaos continues through the weekend with this shocking update: Terrifier 2 has earned an estimated $1.22M through Sunday. With all that said, we’re beyond excited to report that Terrifier 2 earned an astounding $400,000 in its special event slot this past Thursday night. This is a unique moment in horror history we’re all participants in. Everything was grassroots and done for the love of the film and the genre. The film wasn’t studio-backed and we had no money for marketing. Terrifier 2 is special for one particular reason – it’s fan-driven. Oh, and Damien Leone‘s epic slasher is also an indie film. I don’t know how we did it, but we brought an uncut, uncompromised, 138-minute-long ultra slasher to nearly 900 movie theaters across the country (with drive-ins also playing the film throughout October). Scary Stories is expected to release in 2019.īelieve it or not, Cinedigm, Bloody Disgusting, and SCREAMBOX’s release of Terrifier 2 is unprecedented. The film is being produced by Guillermo del Toro as well as Sean Daniel and Jason Brown of Hivemind along with Academy Award-winner J. Kevin Hageman and Dan Hageman ( LEGO Movie, Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia) co-wrote the screenplay with Academy Award-winner Guillermo del Toro and Patrick Melton & Marcus Dunstan ( The Collector, Saw IV-VII, Feast, Piranha 3D) from the bestselling trilogy of books by Alvin Schwartz. Javier Botet will play one of the film’s creatures. Young actress Zoe Colletti ( Annie) was the first name to be announced from the ensemble, with the full cast now including Michael Garza ( Wayward Pines, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1), Austin Abrams ( Brad’s Status, The Americans), Gabriel Rush ( Moonrise Kingdom, The Grand Budapest Hotel), Austin Zajur ( Fist Fight, Kidding), and Natalie Ganzhorn ( Make it Pop, Wet Bum). “Inspired by one of the most terrifying book series of all time, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark follows a group of teens who must solve the mystery surrounding a wave of spectacularly horrific deaths in their small town.” As a synthesis: an efficient teen movie for getting started with cinematographic thrills.Now filming, the Guillermo del Toro-produced, André Øvredal-directed Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark will bring Alvin Schwartz’s stories and Stephen Gammell’s illustrations to the big screen next year, and Deadline updates today with some new casting news.ĭean Norris (“Breaking Bad,” pictured below), Gil Bellows ( The Shawshank Redemption) and Lorraine Toussaint (“Orange Is The New Black”) are the latest to join the cast.įrom what we’ve recently heard, early drafts of the script featured the scarecrow from Harold and the girl with spiders coming out of her face from The Red Spot. Stella and Ramón will have to face their own worst demons in order to stop the carnage and save the inhabitants. A cursed book! The small town will then suffer a wave of atrocious deaths. After the showing of a cult film ( Ніч живих мерців (1968)) in a drive-in theater, a group of teens arrives, we do not really know how, in a time-worn mansion on the edge of town, abandoned for ages after an unexplained murder. On certain aspects, in particular the ineluctably-fatalistic side, the film makes me think of Жах на вулиці В'язів (1984) directed by Wes Craven in which a psychopath sadistically haunts teens during their sleep. Film directed by André Øvredal and co-written with Guillermo del Toro, Страшні історії для розповіді в темряві (2019) benefits from an efficient Halloween atmosphere, an excellent photography, the nostalgic 60's dress code, impressive old cars and rather talented young actors.
