This Thursday ‘The Sigil’ Invades The Los Angeles Fear and Fantasy Film Festival
Running May 15-20 in Burbank, CA is the Los Angeles Fear and Fantasy Film Festival with Thursday, May 17 holding the premiere of The Sigil.
Brandon Cano-Errecart directed the film that stars Cano-Errecart, Devan Liljedahl, Miki Matteson and Matthew Black.
“Rockford, Illinois. Local boy Logan Lewis is reported dead along with 41 others at a house in Los Angeles, California. The story makes national news. The government releases an official statement blaming an undiscovered uranium mine found underneath the house. The bodies, over-exposed to radiation, have been confiscated – never shown to family or the public. The house is ruined and destroyed.
Broken and confused by her brother’s death, Devan seeks answers and reconciliation. She recruits her close childhood friend Nate to travel with her to California and make peace with Logan’s death. Nate, caught up in the conspiracy, brings along his friend Brandon to document it all on video. They journey to the house in search of the truth, but what they find is unlike anything they ever expected. For not everyone in the house that night is dead.”

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.
