[Review] TIFF ’11: ‘Livid’ Is Creative Madness
Screening at TIFF this week is Livid, the new film by Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo. The film “is a horror fairytale set during Halloween night when three youths decide to burglarize an old lady’s desolate house, but what awaits them is no ordinary house… ” And now Mr. Disgusting writes in with his review.
“‘Livid’s true gift is its creative madness, a film that’s drenched in imagery that will resonate with viewers for decades. Still, ‘Livid’ is not going to make fans of ‘Inside’ happy. In fact, I expect most of you to despise it with pure venom. ”

Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
