TV: Full Trailer for ‘True Blood’, Minisode and Promo for ‘The Gates’
Two pieces of television news in one post as HBO released the FULL trailer for their forthcoming third season of “True Blood” which will reveal what happened to vampire Bill Compton. In addition, below you’ll find ABC’s first promo for “The Gates”. Written by Richard Hatem and Grant Scharbo, “Gates” centers on a big-city cop (Grillo) who becomes chief of police in a seemingly sleepy planned community only to discover there’s much more to the residents than meets the eye. The series is being eyed for a summer launch. Mably (“The Prince and Me”) will play one of the residents, a cardiologist who is a vampirelike creature. Gavankar (“The L Word”) will play a local cop with a dark secret. West (“90210”) will play the owner of a tea shop. The project is slated to begin production in late March in Louisiana.
Watch the new “True Blood” minisode over at IMDB:
Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks, the married writing-directing duo behind the pandemic horror movie Alone With You, are back with the new horror movie Blood Shine.
Blood Shine is coming to theaters, VOD, and Digital on August 21 from Dark Sky Films.
Set in a desolate expanse of upstate New York, Blood Shine centers around Clara, a religious zealot who worships light in lonely, sacred rituals. When problematic horror director Brighton West travels upstate to finish the screenplay for his next film, a chance encounter with Clara leads him into a hallucinatory web of faith, flesh, and the sublime.
Bennett also stars in the film, in addition to writing and directing with Brooks.
Brendan Sexton III (Session 9), David Call (Insidious: The Red Door), Larry Fessenden (You’re Next), and Toby Poser (Recluse, Hellbender) also star.
“We are thrilled to bring Blood Shine to North American audiences,” added Dark Sky executive vice president Greg Newman. “Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks have created a daring and visually arresting film that expands the boundaries of folk horror and really delivers.”
Producers include Aaron B. Koontz via Paper Street Pictures (Shelby Oaks, Scare Package) and Alexander Schepsman, Garrett Fennelly and Zeus Kontoyannis via Zeus Pictures.
Ashleigh Snead and Cameron Burns serve as co-producers for Paper Street. Michael McFadden, G. Riley Mills, and Matt Sullivan executive produce.
Watch the new trailer below that introduces an eerie Larry Fessenden as a faith figure with a sadistic streak.
