Ted Raimi gets his own talk show at Shudder. Elizabeth Bathory visits the 21st century in Isabelle Huppert’s The Blood Countess . Onslaught director Adam Wingard admits he doesn’t think you can do A Nightmare on Elm Street without Robert Englund. I’ll have to pass that message, myself, won’t I? Hmm ? It’s Morning Spoilers!
Variety reports Well Go USA Entertainment has acquired the U.S. rights to Paradise Lost , the latest film from Colony director Yeon Sang-ho. The story concerns “a mother’s young son” who “mysteriously disappears along with a bus full of children. Years later, he unexpectedly returns — but has changed in ways she could never have imagined.”
Variety also has word Strand Releasing has picked up the U.S. rights to The Blood Countess , starring Isabelle Huppert as the vampiric Elizabeth Báthory. Set “decades after her mysterious disappearance,” the titular Blood Countess “reemerges in modern-day Vienna, where she reunites with her devoted underling, Hermione, to track down a dangerous book with the power to destroy all evil—including all vampires such as themselves. The duo embarks on a scavenger hunt through the city’s magnificent historic sites and conscript the countess’s melancholic nephew—a vegetarian vampire—and his psychotherapist as they expand their search to Bohemia. Meanwhile, a pair of vampirologists and a police inspector remain hot on their trail.” Birgit Minichmayr, Thomas Schubert, Lars Eidinger, and André Jung co-star.
According to World of Reel , LAIKA’s Wildwood has been rated PG-13 for “strong fantasy violence/bloody images, thematic material, suicide related material, brief partial nudity, and language.”
During her recent appearance on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Gal Gadot expressed her frustration at DC Studio’s handling of its Snyderverse-to-James Gunn regime change.
No, they told me the opposite. They were like, ‘We’re going to develop it with you, the third [Wonder Woman movie]…’ But I saw the way everybody else [was] handled, right?
And, you know, the Henry [Cavill] situation was not handled elegantly, to say the least. Same with Patty [Jenkins]. Was not handled elegantly. I feel like, you know, we’re all adults and it’s all good. And it’s not even about them. They are there, and they’re there to do what they believe in, and it’s all good.
During a recent interview with Dread Central , Onslaught director Adam Wingard stated he “doesn’t know how you would do” A Nightmare on Elm Street without Robert Englund as Freddy Krueger, but has “another project [he’s] been developing that’s in the vein of that.”
When they were announcing that, I did the thought exercise where I was like, what can you do with A Nightmare on Elm Street , especially with a new actor playing Freddy Krueger? And to be honest with you, I couldn’t come up with an answer. Weirdly, I have another project I’ve been developing that’s in the vein of that, so, I don’t know.
If somebody showed me a script or gave me a concept, I would look at it, because I love those movies and I’d be intrigued. But, to be honest with you, I don’t know how you would do that. It doesn’t feel like you could be as funny as Freddy Krueger was.
