Want To Hear The First Chapter Of The Sequel To ‘The Shining’?

Published

This past weekend Stephen King made an appearance at the Savannah Book Festival. During his lecture or Q&A, which apparently touched on all aspects of his career, he read an excerpt from his new sequel to The Shining“Dr. Sleep”.

While the sequel is far ranging and the bulk of it takes place many years after the events in The Shining – and apparently includes vampires for some reason – this portion of the first chapter directly concerns The Overlook Hotel. So it should be of direct concern to you.

The folks over at The Daily Dead got the video. Hit the jump to check it out!

‘Longlegs’ – Part Two of New Teaser Video for NEON Horror Movie Gets Even Weirder and Creepier

Published

on

Longlegs teaser

The marketing campaign for NEON’s upcoming horror movie Longlegs isn’t getting any less strange, with the second part of last week’s cryptic teaser video and poster arriving today.

Longlegs heads to theaters on July 12, 2024.

The upcoming serial killer horror movie marks the return of director Osgood Perkins (The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Gretel & Hansel). Nicolas Cage stars alongside Maika Monroe, with Monroe playing an FBI agent and Cage playing a serial killer.

Longlegs is said to be “in the vein of classic Hollywood psychological thrillers.”

The poster is dubbed “Dirty: Part One” while the video is labeled “Dirty: Part Two,” and the latter features some new clips from the film along with a cryptic poem of sorts…

Listen loud the serpents

See the darkness slithering

Tell me what good is that body

If not for hiding shiny red parts

This mysterious teaser features Nicolas Cage, breathing and wheezing creepily over unsettling horror imagery. It refers to him as “the man downstairs.”

In the film, “FBI Agent Lee Harker (Monroe) is a gifted new recruit assigned to the unsolved case of an elusive serial killer (Cage). As the case takes complex turns, unearthing evidence of the occult, Harker discovers a personal connection to the merciless killer and must race against time to stop him before he claims the lives of another innocent family.”

Alicia Witt (“The Walking Dead”) and Blair Underwood (“American Crime Story”) also star.

The film is rated “R” for “Bloody violence, disturbing images and some language.”

Producers are Nicolas Cage along with his production company Saturn Films (The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, Pig), Dan Kagan (Significant Other), Brian Kavanaugh-Jones (Insidious), Dave Caplan (The End We Start From) and Chris Ferguson (Child’s Play).

Both halves of the cryptic Longlegs teaser played ahead of Abigail in theaters this weekend.
