Chronicle

Earlier this evening Bloody Disgusting’s Evan Dickson hit the 20th Century Fox lot to get an early look at Joshua Trank’s Chronicle, the teen-powered superhero/villain movie that looks like a modern day American Akira. While the article is a few days away, we’ve landed the first official still (as seen above), along with a new clip that puts a new spin on baseball (pun intended). Inside you’ll also find an explosive Brazilian one-sheet and a new 60-second teaser.

Fans of “Fright Night Lights” will be excited to see Michael B. Jordan in the lead role, alongside Alex Russell, Dane DeHaan, Michael Kelly, and Ashley Hinshaw. In theaters February 3, the pic begins when “Three high school friends gain superpowers after making an incredible discovery. Soon, though, they find their lives spinning out of control and their bond tested as they embrace their darker sides.

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.

Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”

In the SXSW 2024 horror film…

“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.

“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”

Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
