Easter Horror Movie ‘The Beaster Bunny’ Looks Like the Worst Best Thing Ever
Would you believe that it’s 2017 and we still don’t have a high profile Easter horror movie to watch every April? Sure, a handful of indie films with titles like Kottentail, Easter Sunday and Easter Bunny Bloodbath are at our disposal, but we’re just begging for someone like Michael Dougherty (Krampus) to do the holiday proper. While we wait, another dose of indie silliness is on the way.
Releasing in the UK on April 3rd, The Beaster Bunny was previously known by the title Beaster Day: Here Comes Peter Cottonhell, and along with the new title and re-release comes a brand spankin’ new trailer. It looks absolutely awful, but I’m pretty sure that’s the point? Every once in while you just need to kick back with a really bad movie, and this one looks to fit that bill.
Check out the trailer below.
In the film, written & directed by the Snygg Brothers…
A 50-foot man-eating Easter bunny is on the loose and the townsfolk don’t stand a hop in hell. As the bloodthirsty, floppy-eared killer leaves a trail of dismembered corpses, the town’s only chance of survival rests with a wannabe actress and a crazy dog-catcher. God help them!
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.
