IFC Gets ‘Dementia’ This December
IFC Midnight has announced a December 4th VOD and limited theatrical date for Dementia, starring Gene Jones (The Sacrament) and Kristina Klebe (Proxy, Halloween), which is said to be a cross between Misery and Whatever Happened to Baby Jane.
The film also stars some of horror’s hottest indie actors that include Peter Cilella (Resolution) Richard Riehle (Texas Chainsaw 3D) Marc Senter (Red, White & Blue), Graham Skipper (Almost Human) as well as Molly McQueen (Carjacked) Tony Denison (The Closer) and introducing newcomer Hassie Harrison.
“Diagnosed with dementia, war veteran George Lockhart (Jones) must deal with his estranged family. Son Jerry (Cilella) and granddaughter Shelby (Harrison) force him to hire a live-in nurse (Klebe). Only to find she harbors a sinister secret.”
Director Mike Testin, and Producers by J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules are the filmmakers behind the horror hit film Contracted. Executive Producers are Jonathan Yunger and Jeffrey Greenstein. The screenwriter is Meredith Berg.

Get ready for double the fun, protagonists, and body count when Ready or Not 2: Here I Come explodes on streaming next week.
Just in time for the fireworks, the sequel makes its streaming debut on Hulu and Disney+ on July 2.
Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin & Tyler Gillett are back, along with Samara Weaving, for more hide and slay mayhem.
Picking up moments after the all-out attack from the Le Domas family in the first Ready or Not movie, Grace (Weaving) discovers she’s reached the next level of the nightmarish game — and this time with her estranged sister Faith (Kathryn Newton) at her side. Grace has one chance to survive, keep her sister alive, and claim the High Seat of the Council that controls the world. Four rival families are hunting her for the throne, and whoever wins rules it all.
That means a higher body count and even more explosive carnage. Just how much? A whopping 325 gallons worth, the directors previously told BD.
Sarah Michelle Gellar, Shawn Hatosy, Néstor Carbonell, David Cronenberg, Elijah Wood, Kevin Durand, Olivia Cheng, Varun Saranga, and Daniel Beirne also star.
I wrote in my review for Bloody Disgusting, “More is more in Ready or Not 2. Bigger stakes, larger playing field, a higher (and more gruesome) body count, and even double the protagonists. It’s all designed to deliver maximum crowd-pleasing fun.”
The horror-comedy sequel is written by Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy.
