[Exclusive] Director Shares Early Poster Concepts for ‘Hellraiser: Judgment’
We’re just one month removed from the release of Gary J. Tunnicliffe’s Hellraiser: Judgment, the divisive latest installment in the long-running horror franchise. We’ve been sharing with you guys all sorts of fun exclusives this past month in celebration of that release, and we’ve got one final little treat for you here today.
Tunnicliffe reached out to us to share three pieces of early concept art for Judgment, which were whipped up, in Gary’s own words, “way back.” One was used on the back cover of the DVD/Blu-ray, while the others never ended up seeing the light of day.
“I don’t have higher REZ versions I’m afraid, but I thought they were really nice and worth sharing,” Tunnicliffe told us. Check out the artwork concepts below.
The new film tells the story of three detectives as they struggle to catch a killer, but instead find themselves thrust into the depths of Pinhead’s hellacious landscape.
“Three detectives trying to stop a diabolical serial killer are sucked into a maze of otherworldly horror, where hellish denizens including the Auditor, the Assessor, and the Jury await to pass judgment.”
Including a cameo by horror icon Heather Langenkamp (A Nightmare on Elm Street), Hellraiser: Judgment stars Paul T. Taylor, Gary J. Tunnicliffe, Damon Carney, Randy Wayne, Alexandra Harris, John Gulager, Mike Jay Regan, Diane Goldner, Andi Powers, Jeff Fenter, Helena Grace Donald, and Grace Montie (read about their roles).
One night. One house. One horrifying experience. Nothing stays buried forever in Bury the Devil, a real-time exorcism movie told in a single, continuous take.
We’re exclusively unveiling the new trailer and key art for the real-time nightmare below, ahead of the film’s release in select theaters and VOD on August 21.
Adam O’Brien (Mom) directs from a script by John Petrizzi and Brad Hodson.
When nurse Julia finds herself trapped inside the home of her dementia patient, she begins to suspect things are not what they seem; something demonic is seeping through the cracks of this old home. Trapped and with nowhere to turn, Julia soon finds herself in battle to rid the house of this evil before it is too late.
Dawn Ford, Emmanuelle Lussier Martinez, Bill Rowat, and Mark Antony Krupa star.
“This film depicts the most harrowing 90 minutes of our protagonist’s life, and I felt that the most visceral way to really feel this was to do a single-shot film,” O’Brien previously teased. “We are with her every step and misstep she takes – through the unraveling of the mystery to the horror of her discovery. It’s a fun, twisty roller-coaster ride that puts a new spin on exorcisms.”
Bury the Devil is the first installment in a planned trilogy. The prequel, Bury the Devil: Origin, is already in development with O’Brien returning to the helm.
O’Brien produces along with Philip Kalin-Hajdu (The Sacrifice Game) and Benoit Beaulieu (Turbo Kid).
