Eli Roth’s “Goretorium” Files For Bankruptcy, Check It Out While You Can!!
I still haven’t had a chance to check out Eli Roth’s “Goretorium”, a year-round horror maze/display on the Las Vegas strip. It opened with quite a bit of fanfare on September 27th, 2012, but apparently the non-horror months (November-August) haven’t helped it generate the revenue it needs. As a result, the company is filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy (according to this article in the Las Vegas Sun). While things don’t look good, the Goretorium is still allowed to operate so check it out while you can! If enough people end up liking it, who knows what could happen? Find tickets at the event’s official website.
“The multi-level maze of frights submerges visitors into the tale of Sin City’s most deadly mythical hotel and casino, The Delmont. The self-guided horror experience begins in the lobby of the Delmont and unveils gruesome and ghastly sights of past hotel guest victims and the serial-killing family behind the deeds at every turn. Employing high-tech Vegas showmanship with old-fashioned scares, the terrifying labyrinth of live actors, animatronic frights and stunning special effects is contained in a vintage hotel setting that rivals Hollywood’s best movie sets.“
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.”
