Blumhouse and Universal Pictures has released a trailer for their newest horror/supernatural thriller Night Swim, produced by icon horror mind James Wan.

In the trailer, we see a family who moves into a new house which comes with a beautiful backyard pool. But a dark force is waiting for them within the depths of the pool and attacks the daughter.

Check out the Night Swim trailer below:

About the film:

“In the film, Ray Waller, a former major league baseball player forced into early retirement by a degenerative illness, who moves into a new home with his concerned wife Eve, teenage daughter Izzy, and young son Elliot,” reads the synopsis. “Secretly hoping, against the odds, to return to pro ball, Ray persuades Eve that the new home’s shimmering backyard swimming pool will be fun for the kids and provide physical therapy for him. But a dark secret in the home’s past will unleash a malevolent force that will drag the family under, into the depths of inescapable terror.”

Night Swim is written and directed by Bryce McGuire (Baghead), based on his 2014 short film. The film will be led by Oscar nominee Kerry Condon (The Banshees of Inisherin) as Eve, Wyatt Russell (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier) as Ray Waller, Amélie Hoeferle (The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes) as Izzy, and Gavin Warren (Fear the Walking Dead) as Elliot.

The first poster for the upcoming horror film Thanksgiving has been released before the release of the trailer tomorrow. This film was a fake trailer during the Grindhouse film from years back and is finally getting made.

The film, directed by Eli Roth, is a homage to the delightfully ludicrous slashers of the ’80s, a slasher comes to a small Massachusetts town with the intention of creating a Thanksgiving carving board out of the town’s inhabitants.

Thanksgiving is a full movie version of Eli Roth’s fake Grindhouse trailer for the Tarantino x Rodriguez project from 2007. It’s long been in demand to be made into a feature film. Roth has recently wrapped the Borderlands movie, and this marks his first time directing a full-on horror movie since 2013’s The Green Inferno.

The Thanksgiving movie stars Patrick Dempsey, Addison Rae, Gina Gershon, and Milo Manheim.

Thanksgiving will be released exclusively in theaters on November 17, 2023.

Rumors are running wild about what we can expect from the upcoming horror finale Scream 7 which will end the franchise for good in 2025.

Well, we now know that series original Neve Campbell will be returning as Sidney Prescott and both the studio, director Christopher Landon and Neve Campbell all want a deal to finalize immediately. She was set to sign on for the 7th film right before the strike started.

Per Twitter’s CriticalOverlord: “Neve Campbell was negotiating her return for Scream 7 prior to the SAG/WGA strikes. Her participation may have been secured, similar to Christopher Landon signing on to direct.”

These are the same sources that broke the news and confirmed that Happy Death Day director Christopher Landon would be taking over the directing duties to finish the story.

In the meantime, check out another fan poster for the film.

New Line Cinema has released a new video with franchise creator James Wan discussing the latest film in The Conjuring film universe. The video features Wan, director Michael Chaves and the cast discussing the return of the eery Valak and what film goers should be expecting.

Wan also teases The Nun 2’s connection to the franchise’s main original Conjuring story, hinting at a full-circle moment that would tie Valak to The Warrens. The featurette also offers new details to the story including the demon nun’s bloody quest to find an ancient relic that would make its more powerful. The church is once again relying on Taissa Farmiga’s Sister Irene to once again stop Valak before it keeps on killing priests and nuns across Europe.

“1956 – France. A priest is murdered,” the synopsis for the film reads. “An evil is spreading. The sequel to the worldwide smash hit follows Sister Irene as she once again comes face-to-face with Valak, the demon nun.”

The Nun 2 is directed by Michael Chaves (The Curse of La Llorona, The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It) from a screenplay written by Richard Naing and Ian Goldberg, based on Akela Cooper’s latest draft. Joining Farmiga in the horror sequel are Jonas Bloquet as Frenchie/ Maurice, Bonnie Aarons as Valak, along with franchise newcomers Storm Reid, Anna Popplewell, and Katelyn Rose Downey.

20th Century Studios has revealed the first A Haunting in Venice clip for Kenneth Branagh’s newest Agatha Christie movie, featuring Michelle Yeoh’s character Joyce, medium enlisted to conduct a séance for Kelly Reilly’s grieving character Rowena Drake.

The video teases the beginning of the séance, where Joyce calls upon the spirit of Alicia Drake. The ritual is seemingly working as a spirit starts communicating by moving the keys on the typewriter, which leaves guests bewildered and terrified. The film is scheduled to arrive in theaters on September 15.

Talk to Me 2 is officially happening at A24 and will go by that exact title per writer Danny Philippou. This should come as no surprise to anyone as a) the film has been another huge hit for A24 and b) news just came out that a prequel has already been filmed and canned. See GM article here:

For the sequel, Danny Philippou told Deadline he couldn’t help…

“but start writing other scenes, scenes of different people experiencing the hands, continuing on these characters’ story. So, there’s scenes for a sequel, yeah.”

Talk to Me stars Sophie Wilde. “When a group of friends discover how to conjure spirits using an embalmed hand, they become hooked on the new thrill, until one of them goes too far and unleashes terrifying supernatural forces,” reads the synopsis.

Check out the official trailer and poster for Sony Pictures ‘Saw-esque’ horror film Escape Room, hitting theaters on January 4, 2019.

Escape Room is a psychological thriller about six strangers who find themselves in circumstances beyond their control and must use their wits to find the clues or die. This isn’t your usual escape room experience, which if your interested in you can book now. This seems much more sinister, and altogether more…deadly.

The movie stars Taylor Russell (Lost in Space, Before I Fall), Logan Miller (Love, Simon, The Walking Dead), Deborah Ann Woll (Daredevil, The Defenders), Jay Ellis (Insecure, Top Gun Maverick), Tyler Labine (Voltron, New Amsterdam), Nik Dodani (Atypical, Murphy Brown), and Yorick van Wageningen (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Papillon).

Escape Room was directed by Adam Robitel (Insidious: The Last Key, The Taking of Deborah Logan) from a screenplay by Bragi F. Schut (Season of the Witch) and Maria Melnik (American Gods). The movie was produced by Ori Marmur, Neal H. Moritz, and Donovan Roberts-Baxter.
