“Preacher”: AMC Built An Upside Down Church At SXSW
AMC is celebrating the premiere of its new series “Preacher” at SXSW with an installation depicting the upside-down world the characters within the series inhabit, a press release reveals to Bloody Disgusting.
On the corner of Red River Street and 4th Street in Austin, Texas, the installation will be on display March 11th – 15th from 10am – 10pm daily and is open to the public.
Executive Producers Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg and Sam Catlin and cast members Dominic Cooper, Ruth Negga and Joseph Gilgun, will be joining fans on Monday, March 14th at 2:45pm for the world premiere screening of the pilot episode – several months prior to air – followed by a panel at the Paramount Theatre.
“Preacher,” which premieres on AMC in May, is based on the popular cult comic book franchise of the same name. It is a supernatural, twisted and darkly comedic drama that follows a West Texas preacher named Jesse Custer, who is inhabited by a mysterious entity that causes him to develop a highly unusual power. Jesse, his badass ex-girlfriend Tulip and an Irish vagabond named Cassidy come together, and when they do, they are thrust into a crazy world populated by a cast of characters from Heaven, Hell and everywhere in between.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
