May 2, 2016

A new British anthology horror film by the name of Exhibits is moving towards production and it sounds like something that’s right up our alley! Directed by Mike Clarke (A Hand to Play) and Paul Gerrard (Hellraiser: Origins), the feature length film will take place in a “museum of the macabre” where “The Curator” will be the arbiter of judgment

The film is being described as “…‘Hellraiser’ meets ‘An American Werewolf in London’ via ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’.”

The synopsis reads:

Having been a single mother for the majority of her son’s life, Christie finally feels she may have found someone to share her life with in Phillip. The new couple decide to take a weekend break in the countryside so that their children Andy and Rachel can get to know one another.

Whist in the countryside, the two families come across a strange museum that holds exhibits connected to murders and supernatural occurrences. The museum’s mysterious curator tells his guests that he will take them on a tour and explain the story behind four exhibits from his vast collection.

As the tour continues, the two families begin to realise that each story told by the curator is connected to them individually; secrets that they believed to have been buried for good. With their dark history now out in the open, to what lengths will Christie and Phillip go to once again bury their past?

Some amazing pictures can be seen at the official website. The concept trailer can be seen below.

The press release included the following additional description:

A British horror anthology…..centered around a museum of the macabre. Each exhibit in the museum is a link to a story of untold horrors and dark secrets.

The visitors all have secrets to be told. The museum is neither Heaven nor Hell. It isn’t even Purgatory. It is a timeless place of judgement set before thy self. The mirror, for which they see themselves through, is The Curator. You will either survive or die, he will decide.

Each story is a portal, a glimpse into worlds unseen. Provocatively visual, visceral, imaginative…

One of this summer’s most hotly anticipated new movies is A24 and Ti West’s MaXXXine, a follow-up to X and Pearl that brings Mia Goth’s title character into the 1980s.

With her past catching up to her, Maxine attempts to make it big as a superstar in Hollywood, 1985. While you wait, check out a new image below courtesy of USA Today this week.

Releasing in theaters on July 5, 2024, MaXXXine is rated “R” for…

“Strong violence, gore, sexual content, graphic nudity, language and drug use.”

If you missed the official trailer, you can watch it right here.

Mia Goth stars alongside Elizabeth Debicki, Moses Sumney, Michelle Monaghan, Bobby Cannavale, Halsey, Lily Collins, Giancarlo Esposito and Kevin Bacon in MaXXXine.

Here’s the official plot synopsis from A24 this week: “In 1980s Hollywood, adult film star and aspiring actress Maxine Minx finally gets her big break. But as a mysterious killer stalks the starlets of Hollywood, a trail of blood threatens to reveal her sinister past.”

Last we saw Maxine in Ti West’s X (2022), she was the sole survivor of a massacre carried out by elderly couple Howard and Pearl in the Summer of ’79. Goth of course pulled double duty as the villain Pearl in that movie, who got her own origin story in Pearl (2022). Pearl and Maxine are different characters, but they share the common goal of wanting to be stars.

Will Maxine finally make it in Hollywood? Or will the demons of her past become her ultimate downfall? With the Night Stalker roaming free, we expect MaXXXine to get wild this summer.
