Taurus Entertainment already punched us in our face back in 2008 when the Steve Miner directed redo of George A. Romero’s Day of the Dead hit video. Now, the company behind Creepshow 3 and Day of the Dead: Contagium is gearing up for another Day remake, this time in 3-D. Variety reports, “Producer James Dudelson of horror-focused Taurus Entertainment, is currently producing a remake of George A. Romero’s Day of the Dead in 3D and said many buyers have requested 3D conversions of classic 2D movies because ‘3D works well for certain genres, like horror.‘ But, he cautioned, ‘You can’t just slap a 3D conversion on the wrong type of film.‘ ” Funny how he implies 3D conversion works on some films. How about NO?

Dan Stevens is everywhere lately, from Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire to Abigail and the upcoming Cuckoo. We’re not complaining. Up next? He’s starring in horror movie The Ritual.

Al Pacino and Dan Stevens have both joined the cast of the upcoming exorcism horror movie from XYZ Films and director David Midell, Variety reports this afternoon.

Based on a true story, the film “follows two priests — one questioning his faith (Stevens) and one reckoning with a troubled past (Pacino) — who must put aside their differences to save a possessed young woman through a difficult and dangerous series of exorcisms.”

Variety details, “The film is an authentic portrayal of Emma Schmidt, an American woman whose demonic possession culminated in harrowing exorcisms. Her case remains the most thoroughly documented exorcism in American history.”

David Midell and Enrico Natale wrote the screenplay for The Ritual.

XYZ Films is planning to release the horror film theatrically in 2025.
