A New Kind of Exorcism Filmed in ‘Exorcismus’ Trailer Debut!
It’s the year of the exorcism – and I’m OK with that. While Lionsgate’s The Last Exorcism arrives in theaters this Friday, and we wait on Magnet’s REC 2 to arrive on DVD/Blu-ray, Filmax International is working on bringing us Exorcismus (aka The Possession of Emma Evans), which takes a new approach to the phenomenon of exorcisms where director Manuel Carballo brings the Devil into the light. We just got our hands on the eerie trailer that definitely piqued my interest. Check it out below and tell us what you think.
“Fifteen-year-old Emma Evans is like any other teenage girl; she thinks that her parents don’t understand her.

Brendan Fraser is back for the upcoming fourth installment in The Mummy franchise from directors Radio Silence, and Michael Johnston (Obsession) is now in talks to join him.
The Hollywood Reporter lets us know tonight that Michael Johnston is in “early talks” to join The Mummy 4, which will release in theaters on October 15, 2027 via Universal.
Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, and John Hannah will reprise their iconic roles as Rick O’Connell, Evelyn O’Connell, and Jonathan Carnahan in the upcoming movie.
Radio Silence duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin & Tyler Gillett (Ready or Not, Scream 5-6) are directing from a script by David Coggeshall (Orphan: First Kill).
Plot details are being kept under wraps at this time, but the brand new sequel is expected to disregard the events of the third movie, in which Rachel Weisz did not appear.
“It’s just really beautiful and scary and sweeping, and it’s awesome,” Gillet teases. Bettinelli-Olpin adds that the film “has all of the heart and the character that you could hope for.”
A remake of the classic Universal monster movie that took an action-adventure approach, The Mummy was released in 1999 and grossed $417 million worldwide. It was followed by The Mummy Returns in 2001 and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor in 2008.
