New Details Surface From ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre”

A few days ago, Netflix announced the February release date for Fede Alvarez-produced Texas Chainsaw Massacre as well as the first teaser. Now, new details have surfaced including the official synopsis, which reveals that the movie is set in the present day, “nearly 50 years” after Tobe Hooper’s iconic original. The synopsis also reveals the return of the original final girl Sally Hardesty. Olwen Fouéré (Mandy) will be star as Sally, who was originally played the late Marilyn Burns. “After nearly 50 years of hiding, Leatherface returns to terrorize a group of idealistic young friends who accidentally disrupt his carefully shielded world in a remote Texas town.” “Melody (Sarah Yarkin), her teenage sister Lila (Elsie Fisher), and their friends Dante (Jacob Latimore) and Ruth (Nell Hudson), head to the remote town of Harlow, Texas to start an idealistic new business venture.

‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre’ Sequel Slashes Its Way Onto Netflix This February (Trailer)

Netflix continues to build its genre library. One of the movies coming next year is a new Texas Chainsaw Massacre sequel whose premiere date has just been announced. Alvarez said this about the movie: “It’s basically the same character, who is still alive. Our take on it was this guy probably disappeared after everything he’s done. You know, how do you catch a guy who has a mask? Once he removes the mask and runs away, it’s very easy for him to hide somewhere. This story will pick it up many, many years after the original story. He’s been in hiding for a long, long time, trying to be a good person. “These people arriving in this town are going to awaken the giant.” David Blue Garcia (Tejano) directed the movie for Legendary from the script penned by Chris Thomas Devlin. The movie stars Olwen Fouéré (Mandy), Elsie Fisher (“Castle Rock”), Sarah Yarkin (Happy Death Day 2U), Mark Burnham (Wrong

Title Of ‘Army Of The Dead 2’ Announced On The Day Of The Prequel’s Release

This past May Netflix unleashed Zach Snyder‘s action-packed zombie flick Army of the Dead (review), now Netflix has just announced the sequel’s official title, Planet of the Dead. The title seemingly confirms that the zombie virus has spread since the team went on their mission to retrieve the cash. In the final moments, we saw Omari Hardwick’s character Vanderohe survive Las Vegas, or so we thought after he boards a plane and release he’s been bitten. We were also left not knowing the fate of Matthias Schweighöfer’s Ludwig Dieter. The real adventure would be to see what happened to him when that safe door closed,” Snyder teased. “Did he get killed by Zeus or not? What happened? We don’t see him die on camera, and there’s still some time left. I won’t tell you what happens in Army of the Dead 2 — aka Planet of the Dead — but let’s just say that there’s a chance Dieter survives. And

New ‘Texas Chainsaw’ Movie Will Premiere On Netflix

Leatherface is back! A new brand new Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie (the ninth of the franchise) is gearing up to premiere on Netflix. Filmed in Bulgaria last year, the movie is being described as direct sequel to Tobe Hooper’s 1974 original, the same way that David Gordon Green’s Halloween trilogy was for that franchise. The news was announced by Netflix’s official Twitter account, which states that the film is “a new chapter in the iconic horror franchise that is set in the present day and returns to the roots of Tobe Hooper’s horror classic.” Alice Krige, Elsie Fisher, Sarah Yarkin, Jacob Latimore, William Hope, Nell Hudson, and Moe Dunford star, with Mark Burnham playing the iconic role of Leatherface. David Blue Garcia (Tejano) directs with Fede Alvarez (Don’t Breathe) producing. A release date has yet to be announced, but it will more than likely arrive this year.

Movie Review: ‘Candyman’ Is Worthy Of All The Buzz

One of the films I’ve been looking forward to seeing the most this year is the new installment of the Candyman franchise and tonight I finally got my chance. Director Nia DaCosta breathes new life into the franchise that gave me nightmares back in 1992 when the original premiered, telling the story of Daniel Robitaille, played by Tony Todd. The new movie starts off with all of the credits appearing in reverse, which is how you would see it if you were looking in a mirror. It is a fun touch. Candyman begins with Anthony, an artist looking for inspiration. When he hears the tale of Candyman he sets out to investigate, not knowing the hell he’s about to unleash on the newly gentrified Cabrini Green and not knowing that he is connected to the legend. I’ll be honest, I was not sure what to expect from the new film. I was concerned that it might not have the same

Ten Years After Its Release, ‘Chronicle’ Is Getting A Sequel

Back in 2012, the hit found-footage sci-fi horror flick Chronicle premiered and made a killing at box offices. Now, ten years later, it’s getting a sequel. Earlier this week producer John Davis (Jungle Cruise) spoke with Forbes and revealed that Chronicle 2 is currently in the works and promises that it will be from a fresh point of view. Chronicle was literally the best return on investment, any of my movies ever made. Chronicle we did for $12 million, and it grossed $126.64 million worldwide. Then it had a huge afterlife in syndication. It’s one of the most financially successful movies in my stable. We’re working on Chronicle 2 right now, and I think it’s going to be great,” Davis said. “We’re working on it at Fox (20th Century Studios). It’s going to give us a chance to tell the story in a different way. We’re going to tell it from the female point of view. It will have been

David Gordon Green’s ‘The Excorcist’ Will Not Be A Reboot

David Gordon Green‘s (Halloween, Halloween Kills) upcoming installment of The Exorcist franchise was first rumored to be a reboot. Thankfully we can tell you it is not a reboot but is actually a sequel to the 1973 William Friedkin classic, which we reported earlier this month. Now, Green has confirmed it to Total Film. The new movie will be handled the same way Green has handled the Halloween movies. The Exorcist has been written. That was one of my pandemic projects. It’s not inaccurate [that it will be a sequel to the original film]. I like all the Exorcist movies,” Gordon Green explained to Total Film during a chat. “And not only do I like them, I think they can all fall into the acceptable mythology for what I’m doing. It’s not like I’m saying, ‘Pretend that The Exorcist 2 never happened.’ That’s fine to exist. They’re all fine to exist, and I enjoy all of them.” Green adds, “It’s
