‘Ayla’ Poster Goes From Obsession to Flesh
Obsession becomes flesh on this first teaser one-sheet for Ayla, directed by Elias (Gut) from his original script.
The story of Ayla centers on Elton (Nicholas Wilder), a man haunted by the mysterious death of his 4-year-old sister, who brings her back to life thirty years later as an adult woman, with dire consequences.
Starring in the film will be Tristan Risk (American Mary, The Editor) and Nicholas Wilder (Gut).
Production is planned for the fall in Seattle and the surrounding areas.
The October People’s Matt Medisch, Jeremy Berg, and John Portanova (The Invoking, The Device, Valley of the Sasquatch) are producing.
A Kickstarter bid is planned for June 9th in partnership with Back to the Movies and the campaign perks will be tailor-made for horror and film fans, with multiple choices being offered within a single reward level and something for every backer to take home.
Stay tuned to the official Ayla website for updates and look for the project on Kickstarter this June.

Anna Faris & Regina Hall Promise ‘Scary Movie’ Will “Offend Everyone;” New Images Revealed
The Wayans are out to cancel the Cancel Culture with Scary Movie, and the cast assures it will do just that.
“They sort of have an across-the-board style,” Anna Faris tells EW. “It’s always been a part of the Wayans Brothers, their electricity. ‘Can we offend you? Will you still love us? Come on, you still love us, don’t you?'”
Regina Hall concurs, promising the “boundary-pushing” sixth installment in the horror parody franchise will “offend everyone.”
EW has shared a batch of behind-the-scenes images from Scary Movie, which hits theaters June 5 via Paramount.
Faris and Hall are joined by fellow franchise favorites Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Dave Sheridan, Lochlyn Munro, Cheri Oteri, Chris Elliott, and Jon Abrahams in the legacy sequel.
The ensemble includes Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, Kim Wayans, Benny Zielke, Cameron Scott Roberts, Heidi Gardner, Olivia Rose Keegan, Ruby Snowber, Savannah Lee Nassif, Sydney Park, Kenan Thompson, and Felissa Rose.
Michael Tiddes (A Haunted House) directs from a script by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, original Scary Movie director Keenen Ivory Wayans, Craig Wayans (Scary Movie 2), and Rick Alvarez (A Haunted House).
The film will slash through reboots, remakes, requels, prequels, sequels, spin-offs, elevated horror, origin stories, anything with the word legacy in it, and every “final chapter” that absolutely isn’t final.
Scary Movie launched in 2000, followed by Scary Movie 2 in 2001. The Wayans’ involvement ended there, but the series continued with 2003’s Scary Movie 3, 2006’s Scary Movie 4, and 2013’s Scary Movie 5.
