Four New Official Websites Launched…
Are you bored at work? That’s good to know, because four new websites were launched this week that will help you kill at least a good half hour or so. Click any of the titles for their respective sites. Freestlye Releasing launched the website for their PG-13 horror thriller The Haunting of Molly Hartley. The highly interactive site for the film arriving in theaters October 31 lets you view the trailer, download AIM icons, read the synopsis, or view images of Chace and the other cast members. Magnet Releasing launched the official website for Let the Right One In, which arrives on October 24th as part of their ongoing Six Shooter Film Series, which also saw the early launch of its site. Lastly, DreamWorks launched a tentative site for The Uninvited, their remake of A TALE OF TWO SISTERS that arrives in theaters January 30. Don’t forget Lionsgate also launched the official MySpace for Saw V, which hits theaters October 24. Check out our MOVIEPIT for more information on all four films.
Adam Wingard (You’re Next, The Guest) is getting back to his roots with A24‘s Onslaught, and many fans have been wondering if the events of the upcoming film connect in any way to one of Wingard’s previous movies, The Guest. After all, they do seem to be cut from a similar cloth, with some speculating that they might take place in the same universe.
But is there any truth to that speculation? In a new interview out of San Diego Comic-Con this week, Adam Wingard has revealed that the fans are definitely onto something!
Wingard explains, “I look at this as a cap in the trilogy between The Guest and You’re Next. It’s not like a direct sequel, in the sense that it’s a continuation of those characters, but it takes place in the same town as The Guest. The idea is that the secret programs we’re seeing going on here are other little aspects of the same thing David’s character came from in The Guest.”
“So you could actually technically call this a sequel,” Wingard admits. “It’s in the same universe.”

Releasing in theaters on September 4, Adam Wingard’s Onslaught is Rated ‘R’ for “Strong bloody violence, some gore, sexual material/nudity, and language.”
Watch the previously released Onslaught trailer and find two new posters below.
The duo behind The Guest, director Adam Wingard and writer Simon Barrett, are re-teaming for the upcoming Onslaught, which stars Adria Arjona in the leading role.
Here’s the synopsis: “When a rogue squad of genetically engineered super soldiers break loose in the desert, a badass Army sniper must unleash hell to protect her young daughter.”
Rebecca Hall (The Night House, Godzilla x Kong) and Dan Stevens (The Guest) also star in Adam Wingard’s upcoming new movie Onslaught alongside Michael Biehn, Reginald VelJohnson, Eric Wareheim, Drew Starkey, and Alex “Poatan” Pereira.
Dan Stevens starred alongside Maika Monroe in 2014 action-thriller The Guest. He played a mysterious ex-soldier with a secret agenda who wreaks havoc on a small town.
