Another Clip From ‘The Woman In Black’ Keeps The Chair Rockin’

Published

on

Now in theaters everywhere is CBS Films’ The Woman in Black, the latest Hammer production that stars Harry Potter‘s Daniel Radcliffe.

Mr. Disgusting isn’t a huge fan of the film, “What’s most troubling is ‘Eden Lake’ director James Watkins’ inability to craft a “real” scare…there are two should-be terrifying moments that fall completely flat on its face.” Full review here. Other people seem to like this film, even though I agree that it’s a flat “horror for beginners” tale with way too many ineffectual jump scares.

CBS Films released a new clip today, and if you want an idea of what the second act of this film is all about – just imagine this scene playing over and over again for about 45 minutes. If that sounds like your thing, then by all means go see it.

Hit the jump to check out the clip. And if you’ve seen the movie then write your own review to tell all of Bloody what YOU thought!

Dev Patel’s ‘Monkey Man’ Is Now Available to Watch at Home!

After pulling in $28 million at the worldwide box office this month, director (and star) Dev Patel’s critically acclaimed action-thriller Monkey Man is now available to watch at home.

You can rent Monkey Man for $19.99 or digitally purchase the film for $24.99!

Monkey Man is currently 88% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, with Bloody Disgusting’s head critic Meagan Navarro awarding the film 4.5/5 stars in her review out of SXSW back in March.

Meagan raves, “While the violence onscreen is palpable and painful, it’s not just the exquisite fight choreography and thrilling action set pieces that set Monkey Man apart but also its political consciousness, unique narrative structure, and myth-making scale.”

“While Monkey Man pays tribute to all of the action genre’s greats, from the Indonesian action classics to Korean revenge cinema and even a John Wick joke or two, Dev Patel’s cultural spin and unique narrative structure leave behind all influences in the dust for new terrain,” Meagan’s review continues.

She adds, “Monkey Man presents Dev Patel as a new action hero, a tenacious underdog with a penetrating stare who bites, bludgeons, and stabs his way through bodies to gloriously bloody excess. More excitingly, the film introduces Patel as a strong visionary right out of the gate.”

Inspired by the legend of Hanuman, Monkey Man stars Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.

Monkey Man is produced by Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions.
