Check Out these Awesome ‘Annabelle: Creation’ Promotional Items!

Published

on

Annabelle: Creation releases this week, and to celebrate Warner Bros. sent over a small wooden box from the Mullins Toy Company filled with some pretty cool promotional items!

First up we have the box itself. It’s similar to the box that the Annabelle doll is placed in to be shipped away when its finished by Bee’s father, Samuel Mullins. You can see the real thing featured in the first trailer for the movie, but if you want a ton of good information on it, David F. Sandberg posted a commentary on his YouTube channel.

Inside we have three items. A bell keychain, a bundle of sage and a Saint Benedict Medal. Saint Benedict was known as “The Demon Chaser” and there’s a little prayer printed on the medal’s card back. It reads, “May the holy Cross be my light, Let not the dragon be my guide. Begone, Satan! Suggest not vain things to me. Evil is the cup thou offers; Drink thou thine own poison. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen. Saint Benedict, Protect Us.”

The bell is a reference to a character in the film, but I won’t spoil its use. The sage is a handy tool to use while chanting Saint Benedict’s prayer.

We really liked Annabelle: Creation [review] which releases this Friday. We said it “surpasses the first Annabelle movie in nearly every way.”

If you check it out, make sure you stick around for the post-credits scene!

‘Final Destination: Bloodlines’ Adds “Chucky” Actor Teo Briones and More to Lead Cast

The Final Destination franchise is returning to life with Final Destination: Bloodlines. With filming now underway, THR reports that three actors have joined the lead cast, including “Chucky” actor Teo Briones.

Brec Bassinger (“Stargirl”) and Kaitlyn Santa Juana (The Friendship Game) join Teo Briones, who played Junior Wheeler in season two of “Chucky,” as the leads in the sixth installment of the horror franchise.

Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein (Freaks) are directing the fresh installment that also includes Richard Harmon (“The 100”, Grave Encounters 2), Anna Lore, Owen Patrick Joyner, Max Lloyd-Jones (The Book Of Boba Fett), Rya Kihlstedt (Obi Wan Kenobi), and Tinpo Lee (The Manor) among the cast.

Production is now underway in Vancouver.

What can we expect from the upcoming Final Destination 6? Speaking with Collider, franchise creator Jeffrey Reddick offered up an intriguing (and mysterious) tease last year.

“This film dives into the film in such a unique way that it attacks it from a different angle so you don’t feel like, ‘Oh, there’s an amazing setup and then there’s gonna be one wrinkle that can potentially save you all that you have to kind of make a moral choice about or do to solve it.’ There’s an expansion of the universe that – I’m being so careful,” Reddick teased.

Reddick continued, “It kind of unearths a whole deep layer to the story that kind of, yes, makes it really, really interesting.”

Final Destination: Bloodlines is written by Lori Evans Taylor (“Wicked Wicked Games”) and Guy Busick (Scream), with Jon Watts (Spider-Man: No Way Home) producing.

Producers on the new movie for New Line Cinema also include Dianne McGunigle (Cop Car) as well as Final Destination producers Craig Perry and Sheila Hanahan Taylor.

This will be the sixth installment in the hit franchise, and the first in over ten years. Each film centers on “Death” hunting down young friends who survive a mass casualty event.

The latest entry is expected in 2025, coinciding with the original film’s 25th anniversary.
