Tom Sizemore Giving Lobotomies in ‘The Incurables’ (Exclusive)

Published

on

Tom Sizemore, who I absolutely love in Natural Born Killers, is making a killing in the last few weeks.

The other day it was announced that he’s to star in “Shooter,” USA Network’s upcoming drama series from Paramount TV and Universal Cable Prods.

Now, Bloody Disgusting has exclusively learned that Sizemore is also set to topline The Incurables, about a man testing out the transorbitol lobotomy.

Taking place in 1953, “Disgraced in the psychiatric hospital where he’d practiced nearly 30 years, Dr. Walter Freeman (Sizemore) has taken to traversing the country and proselyting about a very new kind of salvation: the transorbitol lobotomy. With an icepick and a hammer, Freeman lands in a town full of degenerates that test his own sanity.

The adaptation is based on Jon Bassoff’s novel of the same name. Jack Reher and Jean-Marie Sobeck are adapting. Both are repped by Primary Wave Entertainment.

Reher is also adapting Bassof’s novel Corrosion for The Ring producer Mike Macari and Affirmative Entertainment’s Nicholas Bogner.

“It’s tremendously well written already, and the role SINGS!,” Sizemore tells us.

Sizemore, who is also producing, is currently filming Felt, Ridley Scott’s new production that stars Russell Crowe and Liam Neeson. He can also be seen in Fox’s “Lucifer” (pictured).

Here’s actual footage of Walter Freeman performing a lobotomy from the 50’s…

New ‘Infested’ Exclusive Clip Will Make You Intensely Afraid of Bathroom Drains

Published

Shudder Infested clip, spider horror

Director Sébastien Vaniček has been set to helm the next Evil Dead movie, but up first from the filmmaker is the creepy crawly spider horror movie Infested. An exclusive new clip gives a discomfiting closer look at the spider terror, and it’ll make you intensely afraid of all bathroom drains and fixtures.

Infested will induce a new wave of arachnophobia this week; the spider horror film arrives on Shudder on April 26, 2024.

If you’re brave enough to face your fears, watch the new clip below to get a feel for the unrelenting wave of spiders that the characters (and the audience) will face in the film.

In the film, “An underprivileged suburb has been thrown into chaos following an invasion of venomous spiders. Ordered to be placed in quarantine, the project sees inhabitants living on lockdown alongside terrifying spiders that are becoming bigger and bigger.

“The story revolves around Kaleb, who’s about to turn 30 and has never been lonelier. He’s fighting with his sister over a matter of inheritance and has cut ties with his best friend.

“Passionate about exotic animals, he comes home one day with a venomous spider and accidentally lets it slip away.”

Théo Christine (“Suprêmes”), Finnegan Oldfield (“Final Cut”), Jérôme Niel (“Smoking Causes Coughing”), Sofia Lesaffre (“Les Misérables”) and Lisa Nyarko star.

Florent Bernard co-wrote the script.

In his review out of Fantastic Fest last year, Bloody Disgusting’s Trace Thurman raved that Infested (aka Vermines) is “one of the best spider attack movies in years,” noting in his 4-star review that the creature feature uses practical spiders – REAL SPIDERS – as much as possible. Thurman also wrote that the spider horror movie is “full of moments that will get under your skin (I kicked my legs up more than a few times in my screening).”

The spiders will be everywhere in Infested, are you ready?
