Meet the Sisters of Pascal Laugier’s ‘Incident In a Ghost Land’! (Exclusive)
The director of Martyrs is set to begin shooting his next horror film this summer.
We broke the news back in March that French filmmaker Pascal Laugier‘s next would be Incident In a Ghost Land for Radar Films.
Laugier penned the script, which we were told follows a mother of two who inherits a home from her Aunt. On the first night in the new home she is confronted with murderous intruders and fights for her daughters’ lives.
When the girls suffer this terrible childhood trauma, their disparate personalities diverge even further. One is said to become a famous horror author, with a perfect family and life in Los Angeles, while the other can’t cope, and loses her mind.
The movie takes place 16 years later when the daughters reunite at the house, and that’s when things get strange.
Bloody Disgusting has confirmed with multiple sources that the two female leads have been cast: Mylène Farmer, Crystal Reed and Anastasia Philipps.
Farmer, pictured below, will play the MOTHER. She is an extremely famous French singer who has sold more than 30 million records in France, and is among the most successful recording artists of all-time there (Wiki).
Reed and Philipps will play the film’s sisters. You’ll recognize Reed, above, as the star of “Teen Wolf.” She has also appeared in Crush and Skyline.
The script as been described to me as being Stephen King-esque, and extremely dark and scary.
Clement Miserez and Jean-Charles Levy produce Ghost Land.
Shooting begins this August in New York and Toronto.
A hospital stay grows more nerve-frazzling when memory loss distorts reality in our exclusive clip from This Tempting Madness, inspired by a true story.
The mind-bending psychological thriller will be released in select theaters and on demand on June 12 via Vertical.
Simone Ashley (“Bridgerton”) stars as Mia, who awakens from a coma, grievously injured, her memory fractured. As she puts the pieces of her past together, she starts to question her own actions and her perception of reality.
In This Tempting Madness, “Mia awakens from a coma grievously injured, her memory fractured. As she puts the pieces of her past together, she starts to question her own actions, and her perception of reality.”
Jennifer E. Montgomery makes her feature directorial debut from a script she co-wrote with director of photography Andrew Davis, inspired by Montgomery’s first-hand experience with tragedy involving her best friend.
“Months before the incident, there were signals that her world was unraveling,” says Montgomery. “I could feel the pressure building, though I didn’t know what form it would take. I never could have known what violence would come, and I certainly never imagined making a film about it.”
Austin Stowell (“NCIS: Origins”), Suraj Sharma (Happy Death Day 2U), Mojean Aria (Reminiscence), Amol Shah (“For All Mankind”), and Zenobia Shroff (“Ms. Marvel”) round out the cast.
Smoke Jumper Films and Mango Monster Productions produce in association with Catchlight Studios (Heretic, The Blackening).
This Tempting Madness is rated R for “language, violence/bloody images, and brief sexuality.”
