‘Kill List’ Director Head To Prison For Ultra-Violent ‘Megaevilmotherfuckers’!
Ben Wheatley is THE director to watch as Kill List is easily one of the best films of the year.
Lee Hardcastle is an indie director to pay close attention too much because his “T for Toilet” (watch above) landed a spot in Magnet’s 26-part anthology The ABCs of Death.
According to Twitch both filmmakers will collide to produce a new stop-motion animated feature entitled, get this, Megaevilmotherfuckers. The site calls the project “an ultra violent prison exploitation picture” in the vein of the bloodbath Riki-Oh (you haven’t seen that yet? What? Really?).
That’s all there is available at this time, but we’ll update you with more when revealed..

Julia Garner Joins Horror Movie ‘Weapons’ from the Director of ‘Barbarian’
In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.
Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
