New Details On ‘The Bitch’, Amanda Plummer Cast
Earlier this month we gave you an exclusive update on The Bitch, an upcoming horror comedy directed by James Merendino (SLC Punk).
Back then we told you that, “ the flick follows four woman who becomes stranded in the woods after a car crash. They hole up in a mansion that’s haunted by a malicious spirit called “The Bitch”.
Now a source tells us that, “The film is a satire and clearly a dark comedy in the same vein as ‘Shaun of the Dead’ or more to the point, Polanski’s ‘Rosemary’s Baby’. Additionally, this film has ‘Girl Power’. In typical insult humor, punk rock, irreverent ways, the characters may seem odd but its because they are meant to be funny. The film is ultimately a nihilistic statement about how utterly chaotic the universe is. The supernatural elements in the story are in fact a symbol of the unpredictability of the universe, and have no more meaning than that.
All the women are strong. It contains Ealing Studios style characters (‘Lavender Hill Mob’, ‘Ladykillers’) who have eccentric and complicated relationships that are funny, and they are thrust into a totally irrational situation.”
We’re also being told that Amanda Plummer has been cast in the film. Shooting is scheduled to begin this March in Baton Rouge, LA.
Director Sébastien Vaniček has been set to helm the next Evil Dead movie, but up first from the filmmaker is the creepy crawly spider horror movie Infested. An exclusive new clip gives a discomfiting closer look at the spider terror, and it’ll make you intensely afraid of all bathroom drains and fixtures.
Infested will induce a new wave of arachnophobia this week; the spider horror film arrives on Shudder on April 26, 2024.
If you’re brave enough to face your fears, watch the new clip below to get a feel for the unrelenting wave of spiders that the characters (and the audience) will face in the film.
In the film, “An underprivileged suburb has been thrown into chaos following an invasion of venomous spiders. Ordered to be placed in quarantine, the project sees inhabitants living on lockdown alongside terrifying spiders that are becoming bigger and bigger.
“The story revolves around Kaleb, who’s about to turn 30 and has never been lonelier. He’s fighting with his sister over a matter of inheritance and has cut ties with his best friend.
“Passionate about exotic animals, he comes home one day with a venomous spider and accidentally lets it slip away.”
Théo Christine (“Suprêmes”), Finnegan Oldfield (“Final Cut”), Jérôme Niel (“Smoking Causes Coughing”), Sofia Lesaffre (“Les Misérables”) and Lisa Nyarko star.
Florent Bernard co-wrote the script.
In his review out of Fantastic Fest last year, Bloody Disgusting’s Trace Thurman raved that Infested (aka Vermines) is “one of the best spider attack movies in years,” noting in his 4-star review that the creature feature uses practical spiders – REAL SPIDERS – as much as possible. Thurman also wrote that the spider horror movie is “full of moments that will get under your skin (I kicked my legs up more than a few times in my screening).”
The spiders will be everywhere in Infested, are you ready?
