‘Saw: Legacy’: Production Beginning (Exclusive)

Published

on

Bloody-Disgusting can exclusively confirm that production is beginning on Saw: Legacy, the eighth film in the franchise created by James Wan (Dead Silence, Insidious, The Conjuring) and Leigh Whannell. And while we don’t know the story or cast, we have been shown a couple of revealing set photos, one of which piqued our interest quite a bit.

So as not to reveal a potential spoiler, I’m going to offer the information we do know first and then put a trailer in between that and the photos.

Saw: Legacy is written by Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfiner, the duo behind Piranha 3D, Piranha 3DD, and Sorority Row. It is being directed by the Spierig brothers, Peter and Michael, who are responsible for Undead, Daybreakers and Predestination, while Dan Heffner and Oren Koules are allegedly producing.

Another interesting item of note: the IMDb has Saw: Legacy listed for release on October 27th, 2017, although that is not a confirmed date.

Alright, here’s what’s interesting about the two photos. They show a cemetery and the second photo reveals John Kramer’s (played by Tobin Bell) grave dug up with the coffin sticking out of the dirt. Why the grave has been dug up is a mystery. It could be sycophantic fans desperate to be close to him or it could be an exhumation for investigative reasons. At this point, all theories are on the table and speculations can run high!

For our younger readers who may not have seen the Saw films, these photos are a huge deal because Kramer is also known as “Jigsaw”, the evil mastermind behind the Saw films! He died in the third Saw, although Bell reprised his role throughout the franchise in a series of flashbacks. The Final Chapter revealed that Kramer/Jigsaw had either purposely or unintentionally created a cult of followers who continue to share his message long after death: appreciate the life that you’ve been given.

While we cannot confirm the validity of the below photos, here are the potential shots from the set:

‘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.
