Axelle Carolyn Short Film ‘Hooked’ Snagged Neil Marshall To Produce – Watch It Now!
Actress Axelle Caroyln (Centurion, Doomsday) has begun the transition into becoming a filmmaker and now one of her first short films has made its way online with an impressive pedigree.
Hooked stars R.A Mihailoff (Texas Chainsaw Massacre III) and Team Unicorn’s Clare Grant. It’s edited and produced by Neil Marshall (director of The Descent and Centurion) and was lensed by Will Barratt (Hatchet).
Caroyln on the genesis of the film, “I finished post on my first short film ‘The Last Post’ in June of this year. It’s a very sad, performance-led, emotional ghost story, and I felt like doing something completely different. I was spending a few weeks in LA and thought it’d be great to do something there, using some of the great exteriors the area has to offer… I came up with this idea for a simple and goofy twist on the slasher genre and it all came together within a couple of weeks. Strangely, I think the biggest influence for this short film was Rob Zombie’s Woolite commercial!

The Wayans are out to cancel the Cancel Culture with Scary Movie, and the cast assures it will do just that.
“They sort of have an across-the-board style,” Anna Faris tells EW. “It’s always been a part of the Wayans Brothers, their electricity. ‘Can we offend you? Will you still love us? Come on, you still love us, don’t you?'”
Regina Hall concurs, promising the “boundary-pushing” sixth installment in the horror parody franchise will “offend everyone.”
EW has shared a batch of behind-the-scenes images from Scary Movie, which hits theaters June 5 via Paramount.
Faris and Hall are joined by fellow franchise favorites Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Dave Sheridan, Lochlyn Munro, Cheri Oteri, Chris Elliott, and Jon Abrahams in the legacy sequel.
The ensemble includes Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, Kim Wayans, Benny Zielke, Cameron Scott Roberts, Heidi Gardner, Olivia Rose Keegan, Ruby Snowber, Savannah Lee Nassif, Sydney Park, Kenan Thompson, and Felissa Rose.
Michael Tiddes (A Haunted House) directs from a script by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, original Scary Movie director Keenen Ivory Wayans, Craig Wayans (Scary Movie 2), and Rick Alvarez (A Haunted House).
The film will slash through reboots, remakes, requels, prequels, sequels, spin-offs, elevated horror, origin stories, anything with the word legacy in it, and every “final chapter” that absolutely isn’t final.
Scary Movie launched in 2000, followed by Scary Movie 2 in 2001. The Wayans’ involvement ended there, but the series continued with 2003’s Scary Movie 3, 2006’s Scary Movie 4, and 2013’s Scary Movie 5.
