3cabinhiresnew032912 Crawl Towards The Latest Hi Res Cabin Imagery

Lionsgate dumped on us two fresh hi-res looks at The Cabin in the Woods (review), which begins making its free screening rounds this week before opening wide on Friday, April 13. Both images feature Kristen Connolly, one battling a creature, the other bloodied up on a dock.

Directed by Cloverfield writer Drew Goddard, and penned by “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”‘s Joss Whedon, Lionsgate’s R-rated high concept slaher follows “A group of friends at a cabin retreat scratch the surface of something so massive and horrific that they can only begin to fathom it as time quickly runs out. If you think you know this story, think again. ‘Cabin in the Woods’ is a mind-blowing horror film that turns the genre inside out.” READ MORE

Furyan Eyes Of Riddick, Creature Shot & A Badass Katie Sackhoff!

Vin Diesel has added yet another slew of behind-the-scenes look at Riddick, the now-filming R-rated David Twohy-directed sequel to Pitch Black. The above look displays some sort of alien creature, while inside you’ll see Katie Sackhoff as Nordic mercenary Dahl and another look at Diesel as the title character.

Riddick also sees the return of Karl Urban (Star Trek) as Vaako and introduces to the series previously announced cast member Jordi Molla as Santana, the arrogant captain of the mercenary ship; Matt Nable (Killer Elite) as Boss Johns, a man looking for answers; Katee Sackhoff (TV’s Battlestar Galactica) as the Nordic mercenary Dahl; and Bokeem Woodbine (Total Recall) as bounty hunter Moss. Rounding out the cast are Dave Bautista (The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption), Conrad Pla (Immortals), Raoul Trujillo (Apocalypto), Nolan Funk (Aliens in America) and two-time Grammy Award-nominated singer Keri Hilson.

“The infamous Riddick has been left for dead on a sun-scorched planet that appears to be lifeless. Soon, however, he finds himself fighting for survival against alien predators more lethal than any human he’s encountered. The only way off is for Riddick to activate an emergency beacon and alert mercenaries who rapidly descend to the planet in search of their bounty.

The first ship to arrive carries a new breed of merc, more lethal and violent, while the second is captained by a man whose pursuit of Riddick is more personal. With time running out and a storm on the horizon that no one could survive, his hunters won’t leave the planet without Riddick’s head as their trophy.” READ MORE

2darkshadowsgallery031512 HD Trailer, Poster & Wicked Hi Res Images From Tim Burtons Dark Shadows

Tim Burton’s vampire version of Austin Powers?

With the HD version of the trailer ~~arriving this afternoon~~ being uploaded as we speak (still), right now international press has landed 30 hi-res images from Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows, which can all be enjoyed by clicking any pictorial on display.

We’ve also just added the official one-sheet and proper version of the trailer, both of which are a bit hokey. I’m nervous that the film is trickling into “pop culture” territory with their (near) modern-day comedy. This could go very badly…

The original Gothic soap opera was a highly atmospheric, spooky soap that featured gothic horror staples like vampires, monsters, witches, werewolves, ghosts and zombies.

In theaters May 11 “The story focuses on Barnabas Collins (Johnny Depp), who was transformed into a vampire by a jilted lover (Eva Green’s witch Angelique) way back in the 1700s and buried. He’s just been dug up, and attempts to reintegrate with his descendants, led by Michelle Pfeiffer’s Elizabeth and Jonny Lee Miller’s Roger – despite the fact that Angelique is still around and still not in a forgiving mood.” READ MORE

Rob Zombie loves his cameos, even in the editing bay. The director of The Lords of Salem has posted two behind-the-scenes photos from the post-production of his witch horror flick that displays a few new looks at the film in the background.

“John 5 stopped by THE LORDS OF SALEM editing room today to discuss the amazing music he is scoring for the film,” said Zombie who also showed a look at editor Glenn Garland having a scream working on a scene from the flick produced by Jason Blum (Insidious, Paranormal Activity).

Penned by Zombie, “The story is about a local DJ who mistakenly unleashes a hellish curse on the town. 300 years earlier on the very streets of Salem that the townspeople walk on today, innocent folks were rounded up from their homes, convicted of being witches and sentenced to death. The Lords of Salem ran the town with an iron fist, but four witches who were tortured and killed in secrecy vowed that one day they would be back for revenge” READ MORE

HotelTransLand31312 Another Peek At Adam Sandlers Hotel Transylvania

I’m not against animated fare or stuff geared at kids, but I just can’t muster much enthusiasm for Genndy Tartakovsky’s Hotel Transylvania 3D. If you’re excited though, we have a new still for you that USA Today picked up. And if you’re really digging it you can follow the link and see another one at their site.

In theaters September 21, “Welcome to the Hotel Transylvania, Dracula’s (Adam Sandler) lavish five-stake resort, where monsters and their families can live it up, free from meddling from the human world. But here’s a little known fact about Dracula: he is not only the Prince of Darkness; he is also a dad. Over-protective of his teenage daughter, Mavis, Dracula fabricates tales of elaborate dangers to dissuade her adventurous spirit. As a haven for Mavis, he opens the Hotel Transylvania, where his daughter and some of the world’s most famous monsters – Frankenstein and his bride, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, a family of werewolves, and more – can kick back in safety and peace. For Drac, catering to all of these legendary monsters is no problem – but his world could come crashing down when one ordinary guy stumbles on the hotel and takes a shine to Mavis.”

Miley Cyrus, Kevin James, Fran Drescher, David Spade, David Koechner, Steve Buscemi, and Molly Shannon also star.
