They will have a booth themed “Feed your Fear,” which is to help get word out on their forthcoming Halloween DVD/Blu-ray releases (yay, Wrong Turn 3!). In addition, Bloody-Disgusting has a super special Blu-ray gift pack for one lucky reader to win. Read on to see how to enter and for more details on the booth.

The theme of the booth is “Feed Your Fear”. The booth will have mock electric chairs equipped with virtual reality goggles! Consumers will be invited to “strap into” the chair and watch a one minute trailer of terror derived from a mix of iconic clips from Fox/MGM horror titles. The booth will also feature other film clips and props from their various films!
Titles that will be spotlighted include Wrong Turn Trilogy, Hannibal Lecter Anthology, Child’s Play, and Misery, among others (all being released on Blu-ray later this year).
Wrong Turn 3 star Janet Montgomery will stop by the booth on Friday for photo opps.

Get ready for double the fun, protagonists, and body count when Ready or Not 2: Here I Come explodes on streaming next week.
Just in time for the fireworks, the sequel makes its streaming debut on Hulu and Disney+ on July 2.
Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin & Tyler Gillett are back, along with Samara Weaving, for more hide and slay mayhem.
Picking up moments after the all-out attack from the Le Domas family in the first Ready or Not movie, Grace (Weaving) discovers she’s reached the next level of the nightmarish game — and this time with her estranged sister Faith (Kathryn Newton) at her side. Grace has one chance to survive, keep her sister alive, and claim the High Seat of the Council that controls the world. Four rival families are hunting her for the throne, and whoever wins rules it all.
That means a higher body count and even more explosive carnage. Just how much? A whopping 325 gallons worth, the directors previously told BD.
Sarah Michelle Gellar, Shawn Hatosy, Néstor Carbonell, David Cronenberg, Elijah Wood, Kevin Durand, Olivia Cheng, Varun Saranga, and Daniel Beirne also star.
I wrote in my review for Bloody Disgusting, “More is more in Ready or Not 2. Bigger stakes, larger playing field, a higher (and more gruesome) body count, and even double the protagonists. It’s all designed to deliver maximum crowd-pleasing fun.”
The horror-comedy sequel is written by Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy.
