Posted by on | 3 Comments

After much hoping and wondering, it seems the Hoyts website has come to the rescue. INSIDIOUS: CHAPTER 2 is listed in their coming soon section and it has a release date.

The latest horror film from home grown talent James Wan is set to hit our screens on November 7th, not too far away but not quite in time for the Halloween season (not that we really celebrate it here).

Insid2

Hopefully nothing changes and the film does indeed get a theatrical run, horror seems to really get the shaft here – a bit silly if you ask us eh!

See some pictures for BACKMASK

Posted by on | Leave a Comment

Not a lot has been said or really brought out about BACKMASK, the latest film from Marcus Nispel. Well some new pictures have surfaced, so why not take a look?

Also included is a poster and synopsis, you may as well get to know the film. There is currently no release, the film doesn’t have distribution, which seems odd as Nispel is a known name and has had success. I do like his films, and this does seem quite different.

What do you fiends think? Are you a Nispel fan? Interested in this one?

SYNOPSIS: During a sex, drugs, and […]

TROLL HUNTER Remake gets DOG SOLDIERS Director

Posted by on | Leave a Comment

When Chris Columbus bought the rights to the Norwegian found footage, TROLL HUNTER, in 2011 The Monster’s Eye is sure a few people were a bit skeptical about what the HARRY POTTER director was going to do with less child friendly material.

Well, it looks like the film – a dry witted comedy horror about a disgruntled government worker who kills Trolls – will get a little extra bite with it being confirmed that DOG SOLDIERS’ Neil Marshall taking on directorial duties.

Marshall is presently filing an episode of GAME OF THRONES, but apparently has been given a director’s pass […]
