Exclusive ‘Dark/Web’ Stills Reveal Technological Terrors

Published

on

Bloody Disgusting has received some exclusive images from Dark/Web, a new series that will explore the terrors of a technological near-future where everyone is connected whether they like it or not.

Think Black Mirror by way of V/H/S, with pulse-pounding standalone episodes popping amid a mysterious wrap around and you get the idea of the format here.

Dark/Web features a great cast of horror regulars including Buffy the Vampire Slayer‘s Nicholas Brendon, Noemi Gonzales (Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones), Rene Heger (CIRCLE), Siobhan Fallon Hogan (Wayward Pines) along with Sibo Mlamba (Black Sails), Brian Elerding (Mad Men) and others.

As the series producers explain:

The anthology aspect of DARK/WEB will let us explore many sub-genres of horror and sci-fi. All stories will center around themes related to the Internet and the dangers present in the murky, unexplained layers of the web. Paranoia, isolation, vanity, loss of identity, the viral nature of ideas, and social media pressures are just a few of the subjects we’re looking to tackle. These pieces also give us the opportunity to showcase diverse and varied points of view from new and exciting filmmakers, writers, and actors across a wide spectrum of backgrounds.

Roxy Shih will direct the serialized segments of the series, with the stand-alone segments to be written and directed by different filmmakers including Zelda Williams and producer Joshua Thurston, Boman Modine
, Mario Miscione, Michael Nardelli and Bloody Disgusting writer Christopher Webster (that’s me!).

Felt Films and Taggart Productions are producing with Autumn Federici, Mario Miscione and Tim Nardelli

Dark/Web will premiere winter 2017

‘Late Night With the Devil’ – Exclusive Clip Begins the Supernatural Horror on Halloween 1977

Published

on

The upcoming Late Night With the Devil is one of the most buzzed about horror movies of the year, currently 100% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes and earning rave reviews from both Stephen King and Kevin Smith. King raves that the film is “absolutely brilliant,” adding that he couldn’t take his eyes off it. Smith comments, “I love it. It’s Rosemary’s Baby meets Network.”

David Dastmalchian (Dune, The Suicide Squad) stars as the host of a late-night talk show that descends into a nightmare in the Ghostwatch and WNUF Halloween Special-inspired film.

IFC Films & Shudder will release the hotly anticipated Late Night with the Devil theatrically on March 22 before it heads to Shudder exclusively on April 19, 2024.

Begin the horror with a brand new EXCLUSIVE clip below…

David Dastmalchian stars as Jack Delroy, the charismatic host of “Night Owls,” and the film traces the ill-fated taping of a live Halloween special in 1977 plagued by a demonic presence.

The energetic and innovative feature hails from Australian writing-directing team Colin and Cameron Cairnes (100 Bloody Acres, Scare Campaign). 

The film premiered last year at SXSW. Meagan wrote in her review out of the fest, “Late Night with the Devil captures the chaotic energy of a late night show, embracing the irreverent comedy and stress of live television with a pastiche style. It’s a clever trojan horse for a surprising horror movie that goes full throttle on unhinged demonic mayhem.

“The ingenuity, the painstaking period recreation, a riveting performance by Dastmalchian, and a showstopper of a finale make for one Halloween event you won’t want to miss.”

Spooky Pictures founders Roy Lee (It, The Grudge, The Ring) and Steven Schneider (Pet Sematary, Paranormal Activity, Insidious), Derek Dauchy (“Al Kameen”) and Future Pictures’ Mat Govoni (“Lone Wolf”) and Adam White (“Lone Wolf”) and John Molloy are all producing.

Joel Anderson (Lake Mungo), Rami Yasin, and David Dastmalchian executive produce.
