Upcoming Documentary ‘Nightmare Fuel’ To Explore Gateway Horror
Hellmouth Pictures has announced another horror documentary exploring new corners of the genre, and this time they’ve set their sights on the traumatic horror of our youth.
Nightmare Fuel is the latest horror documentary to enter development and production from producer Kieran Nolan Jones’ Hellmouth Pictures label.
The feature documentary “is an upcoming feature length documentary to explore inadvertently macabre and traumatizing children’s movies and gateway horror cinema.”
“Featuring interviews with filmmakers & scholars, Nightmare Fuel will charter the history and evolution of horror movies made for children, unintentional trauma in children’s films, the psychological benefits of the horror movies that shaped our childhood and the societal fears of each generation of children which manifests itself on screen.”
Nightmare Fuel isn’t the only horror doc announced as in development by Hellmouth Pictures. We can also look forward to the label unwrapping Yuletide Horror and heading back to high school with Teen Screams.
Stay tuned for more details as they come. In the meantime, check out Nightmare Fuel’s poster art by Creepy Duck Design.
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
