Season Two Of Horror Sci-fi Series “Etheria” Coming To Amazon

As exclusively announced this morning on ComingSoon.net, Season 2 of “Etheria” is set to premiere on Amazon this September from emerging genre distributor The Horror Collective. Produced by The Horror Collective’s Heidi Honeycutt, Staci Pippi Hammon, and executive produced by Shaked Berenson, “Etheria” has been hailed by viewers as “the best horror anthology since Southbound” and the episode directors as “fantasy masters of the next generation”. “Etheria” Season 2 features demented Mexican wrestlers, crafty underground criminals with great stripping skills, doomed time-traveling lovers, demonically vengeful girlfriends, Thai sex worker/vigilantes, coming-of-age slasher horror, hiding in bunkers to escape the apocalypse and suspicious upstairs neighbors that may actually want to kill you.

Soldiers Fight To Save Earth From A Supernatural Enemy In Doom: Annihilation’s First Images

Last year, we reported that Universal was working on a new adaptation of the hit video game Doom. Today, we have the first images (via Dread Central) from the movie. Titled Doom: Annihilation, the straight-to-video movie promises to be an action-packed flick that honors the game. Written and directed by Tony Giglio (S.W.A.T.: Under Siege), Doom: Annihilation centers on a group of marines as they respond to a distress call from a base on a Martian moon, only to discover it’s been overrun by demonic creatures who threaten to create Hell on Earth. Amy Manson (”Atlantis”), Luke Allen-Gale (“Dominion”), Dominic Mafham (Ophelia), and Nina Bergman (The Car: Road to Revenge) star in the movie executive produced by Lorenzo Di Bonaventura (Bumblebee), and John Wells (“Animal Kingdom”). Jeffery Beach (Jarhead 3: The Siege), Phillip Roth (Death Race: 4 Beyond Anarchy) and Ogden Gavanski (Cult of Chucky) are producing. Doom: Annihilation will land on home video this Fall, from Universal 1440 Entertainment.

‘High Life’ Trailer Takes Us On Dread Filled Trip Into The Cosmos

From A24, the studio that brought us Hereditary and The Witch comes a new tale of terror, High Life, starring Robert Pattinson and Juliette Binoche. In the film, “Monte (Pattinson) and his baby daughter are the last survivors of a damned and dangerous mission to the outer reaches of the solar system. The crew of death-row inmates led by a doctor (Binoche) with sinister motives has vanished. As the mystery of what happened onboard the ship is unraveled, father and daughter must rely on each other to survive as they hurtle toward the oblivion of a black hole. A staggering and primal film about love and intimacy, suffused with anguished memories of a lost Earth, High Life is a haunting, thrilling achievement from visionary director Claire Denis.” Musician/actor André Benjamin (aka Outcast’s André 3000) also stars along with Mia Goth. Written by Denis and Jean-Pol Fargeau, High Life opens in theaters on April 12, 2019.

Movie Review: The Dawnseeker (2018)

In the future the sun has had enough of this world, and decides to go batshit and wipe out all humanity…that’s a bit much; it’s just dying out actually. Of course the people of Earth will not go down with out a fight so they send five mercenaries to a remote planet to obtain a mineral known as “stardust” to fix up the star. Of course the ship, containing our heroes crashes on the planet, and a murderous alien creature begins hunting our mercs post-haste! As the carnage rages on, it becomes a question of just how many of our protagonists will make it back to Earth alive! First thing is fucking first; I have no idea what was spent on The Dawnseeker, but the film looks absolutely rad ass awesome!! There are futuristic city vistas, cool costumes, spaceships, robots, excellent lighting and shot composition…the whole thing is a visual feast, and makes the world presented spring to vibrant, visceral

Discover The Dawnseeker This September

This September, director Justin Price‘s The Dawnseeker will arrive. Ahead of its release, the trailer for the film, which pays homage to the Predator films, has just arrived. Starring Franziska Schissler, Alexander Kane, Jason Skeen, and Khu, the film pits mercenaries against a dangerous alien creature. Set in “2245, the Earth’s sun has dwindled and no longer provides the energy needed to sustain human life. Five hired mercenaries travel to an uncharted planet to collect a rare mineral known as stardust to replenish the dying star. After their spaceship crashes on the alien planet, they are stalked and hunted by a creature far more advanced than anything they have ever encountered before.” During our most recent interview with Price, he spoke fondly of filming in Oklahoma and stated that in Dawnseeker the character development was crucial. What we did was focus on the characters and why they were on the planet. When the creature shows up it’s an added bonus.”

DVD Review: Curse of the Mayans is a Serviceable Sci-Fi Adventure

Dr. Alan Green (Steve Wilcox…who looks alarmingly like Ridley Scott) discovers a manuscript that he believes holds the key to solving the disappearance of the Mayans centuries before, which results in him hiring a team of spunky spelunkers headed by Danielle Nobel (Carla Ortiz…who thankfully looks nothing like Ridley Scott since she has a nude scene) to put that pesky parchment to the test! Well these folks bitch and moan and trek through the jungle for a long, long time before they arrive at an underwater tomb from which they unleash an evil from beyond the stars. Kicking out the positive jams; this film is extremely well shot, and features some truly beautiful locations (yup, the film makers actually filmed in Mexico, at ancient Mayan ruins) that add an immeasurable amount of production value to Curse of the Mayans. Along with those vistas comes some solid acting, and a unique (if uneven) story…but the real show stopper is the cool

Teaser Poster And Prequel Novel For ‘The Predator’

The upcoming fourth installment of the Predator franchise has fans excited with the promise that it will be gory like the first two classics and now with the teaser poster fans are even more excited…yes me included, I mean, look at it! The poster has been seen in IMAX theaters and gives the same electrifying feeling that reminds fans of the one scene from Predator 2 when the Predator stands on top of a skyscraper in LA during a thunderstorm triumphantly roaring as it’s struck by lightning and not even phased by it. For added hype for fans, a book said to be the prequel to the movie will be hitting shelves on June 5th. The book, The Predator: Hunters and Hunted will be released by Titan Books and will be written by James A. Moore. The book will be setting up the events leading to the upcoming film.
