Poster for James Wan’s ‘Malignant’ Hammers In the Tension! [Exclusive]
After co-creating the SAW and Insidious franchises, and also giving birth to The Conjuring Universe, horror maestro James Wan drove off into mainstream with a Fast and the Furious sequel and DC’s Aquaman. But before the titan dove back into his Aquaman sequel, he returned to his roots with the Giallo-inspired Malignant, which Warner Bros./New Line Cinema will release in theaters day-and-date with HBO Max on September 10, 2021.
Bloody Disgusting has the exclusive poster debut ahead of this morning’s trailer drop! The striking piece of art immediately grabs the attention, taking a stab at eye trauma and calling to mind classic eye mutilation scenes from Lucio Fulci’s Zombie to Dario Argento’s Opera, Guinea Pig, and even Final Destination 5.
In addition to the one-sheet, we also scored the film’s first synopsis:
“In the film, Madison is paralyzed by shocking visions of grisly murders, and her torment worsens as she discovers that these waking dreams are in fact terrifying realities.”
“I wanted to do something original and genre-bending, and different to my other work, but still in the spirit of the horror-thrillers I grew up with,” Wan has previously teased.
It shouldn’t come as much of a surprise but Malignant has been rated “R” for:
“Strong horror violence, gruesome images, and for language.”
The cast includes Annabelle Wallis, Maddie Hasson, Mckenna Grace, Jake Abel, George Young, Ingrid Bisu, Michole Briana White and Jacqueline McKenzie.
Trailer soon.
Daniel Roebuck has been cast as Santa Claus in Terrifier 3, Bloody Disgusting can exclusively report.
Writer-director Damien Leone is currently wrapping production on the highly-anticipated sequel, in which Art the Clown unleashes chaos on the unsuspecting residents of Miles County as they peacefully drift off to sleep on Christmas Eve.
“I’ve been holding this secret for a long time!” Roebuck tells Bloody Disgusting. “I’ve been really excited about it. I’m actually entering into the movies that I watch. It’s extraordinary. This is Terrifier bigger, badder, best.”
Roebuck appears in Terrifier 3 alongside returning cast members David Howard Thornton, Lauren LaVera, Samantha Scaffidi, Elliot Fullam, and AEW superstar Chris Jericho.
No stranger to iconic horror properties, Roebuck has squared off against Michael Myers in Rob Zombie’s Halloween II, played The Count in Zombie’s The Munsters, succumbed to The Tall Man’s sphere in Phantasm: Ravager, and investigated death in Final Destination.
A distinguished character actor with over 250 credits, Roebuck has also appeared in The Devil’s Rejects, 3 from Hell, Bubba Ho-Tep, John Dies at the End, The Fugitive, Lost, Agent Cody Banks, and The Man in the High Castle. Incidentally, he’s also playing Santa in the family drama Saint Nick of Bethlehem, due out later this year.
Terrifier 3 will be released in theaters nationwide later this year via Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting in conjunction with our partner on Terrifier 2, Iconic Events Releasing.
