Production Listing Suggests ‘Venom’ Will Be a Rated R Horror Film!
Oh and it’s still not a sequel to Life.
The success of rated R movies Deadpool and Logan will likely pave the way for more comic book films that push boundaries and step outside of boxes, and Sony Pictures’ Venom could be the next one to do just that. As announced earlier this month, the Spider-Man character will be getting his own movie on October 5, 2018, and it may very well be something of a horror flick.
Frequently reliable website My Entertainment World just shared the production listing for Venom, set to begin filming this coming Fall, which describes it as an “action/horror/science fiction” movie. That description sure lines up with the character, who could very easily be the terrifying villain in a superhero/horror movie mashup. How cool would that be?!
Additionally, Collider is reporting today that Venom will be rated R! They say the plan is for the film, scripted by Dante Harper (Alien: Covenant), to launch Sony’s own Marvel universe.
The character was introduced in 1988 in “The Amazing Spider-Man” #298-300, scripted by David Michelinie and drawn by the legendary Todd McFarlane and Mike Zeck.
Venom is an alien symbiote that needs a human host to survive. In return, the alien empowers its victim with incredible powers.

SCREAMBOX Investigates UFOs and Extraterrestrials: Several Documentaries Streaming Right Now!
As someone who is obsessed with UFOS (or more recently known as UAPs) and the concept of extraterrestrials, I love a good documentary. Sightings have been on the rise since the 1940s, with the atomic bomb seemingly acting as a catalyst for new visitors. But what are these UFOs/UAPs? Is there an explanation or are they simply beyond our explanation? Why are they here? Who are they? How much do our governments know? The questions are endless and so are the documentaries that attempt to uncover the secrets behind decades of sightings and alleged confrontations.
Whether you’re a seasoned viewer or new to the rabbit hole, there’s always a handful of interesting documentaries to get your neurons firing and leave you with sleepless nights.
