‘Saw’ Franchise Cinematographer Takes Stab at Directing With ‘Silas’
Bloody Disgusting learned exclusively today that Saw franchise cinematographer David A. Armstrong is making his directorial debut on Silas, penned by Robert Gordon Spencer and Drew Henriksen.
Holt Boggs and Robert Gordon Spencer are rumored to star in the film lensing this January in Los Angeles.
Here’s the plot crunch: “A young college student, house sitting for her boss. Little does she know a serial killer has also taken up residence. One by one people disappear into the shadows as her father and boyfriend try to figure out what is going on.” Sounds like Black Christmas with a male protagonist.
Armstrong also worked on films such as Gravedancers, Kill Theory and Hellraiser: Revelations.

Black Box arrives on VOD today, July 7, 2026, via distributor Aura Entertainment.
In the horror movie, “A routine domestic flight turns into the flight from hell through a series of inexplicable phenomena and raw terror. Surreal encounters blur the boundaries between reality and nightmare. Passengers fight against all the odds in an attempt to survive while combating bizarre technological malfunctions, accelerating supernatural events, and alien influences.”
The film is based on the short film The Vessel, and an original screenplay from horror writer Stephen Susco (The Grudge, The Grudge 2, Texas Chainsaw 3D, Hell Fest).
Steven Quale (Into the Storm, Final Destination 5) directs.
Tom Brittney, Holly Leena White, Betsy Blue English, Dane Whyte O’Hara, Kaja Chan, Asa Ali, Boadicea Ricketts, Ceallach Spellman, Georgina Leonidas, Molly Belle Wright, Hanneke Talbot, Danny Mack, and Weronika Rosati star in Black Box.
Hammerstone Studios’ Alex Lebovici (Barbarian, Boy Kills World) and Jon Oakes (Drive, The Guilty) will produce alongside Capstone’s Christian Mercuri and David Haring (Bill & Ted Face the Music), Warren Zide (The Final Destination, American Pie), and Susco. Ruzanna Kegeyan and Roman Viaris of Capstone, and Clark Baker (Vessel) will executive produce.
