First Stills and Poster Reanimates For ‘Harold’s Going Stiff’
Keith Wright is in post-production on a new indie-zombedy, Harold’s Going Stiff, one of the UK’s first feature films to be shot on the Canon 7D. With the official website already launched with a trailer, we’ve now landed the official poster and first still.
“Harold is the first victim of a new disease that is slowly turning him into a zombie-like state. His lonely existence is shaken up when a vivacious nurse, Penny, is sent along to alleviate his stiffness. Her massage techniques work a treat on Harold, and the two become close friends, discovering an unexpected happiness. But soon, Harold starts to deteriorate and a group of thugs turned zombie hunters begin to pursue Harold and Penny across moorlands, making them the prey of a deadly hunt. Harold’s Going Stiff is a uniquely bittersweet and comedic tale that will show you zombies in a whole new way.“
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
