B-D Brings ‘Dead Silence’ Back To Theaters!

Published

on

Universal’s awful marketing (and, oddly, enforced R rating) led to Dead Silence‘s less than stellar theatrical run, preventing fans from enjoying this Hammer throwback on the big screen when it was released in early 2007. But it’s gotten a new lease on life thanks to cable and DVD, and thus we felt it was time to show this underrated flick on the big screen again! If you live in Los Angeles, come on down to the Nuart theater on Friday, January 14th at 11:55 PM for the first ever revival screening of James Wan’s followup to Saw. Wan (daytime decision) and writer Leigh Whannell will be on hand for a Q&A, and if you’ve ever heard them talk you know it will be a hilarious and informative chat, moderated by our own BC and Simon Barrett. Tickets are 10 bucks in advance (just scroll to Jan 14) or at the door – see you there!

New ‘Sleepy Hollow’ Movie in the Works from Director Lindsey Anderson Beer

Sleepy Hollow movie

Paramount is heading to Sleepy Hollow with a brand new feature film take on the classic Headless Horseman tale, with Lindsey Anderson Beer (Pet Sematary: Bloodlines) announced to direct the movie back in 2022. But is that project still happening, now two years later?

The Hollywood Reporter lets us know this afternoon that Paramount Pictures has renewed its first-look deal with Lindsey Anderson Beer, and one of the projects on the upcoming slate is the aforementioned Sleepy Hollow movie that was originally announced two years ago.

THR details, “Additional projects on the development slate include… Sleepy Hollow with Anderson Beer attached to write, direct, and produce alongside Todd Garner of Broken Road.”

You can learn more about the slate over on The Hollywood Reporter. It also includes a supernatural thriller titled Here Comes the Dark from the writers of Don’t Worry Darling.

The origin of all things Sleepy Hollow is of course Washington Irving’s story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” which was first published in 1819. Tim Burton adapted the tale for the big screen in 1999, that film starring Johnny Depp as main character Ichabod Crane.

More recently, the FOX series “Sleepy Hollow” was also based on Washington Irving’s tale of Crane and the Headless Horseman. The series lasted four seasons, cancelled in 2017.
