South Korean distributor Showbox has pre-sold the horror film Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum to 47 countries, including to Well Go USA for North America, reports Screen Daily.

The film takes place at the former Gonjiam Psychiatric Hospital, which was selected as one of CNN Travel’s ’7 freakiest places on the planet’.

According to local legend, the asylum was shut down after a series of mysterious patient deaths in the 90s. In the film, an internet broadcaster recruits a handful of people for a live-streaming, ‘experience the horror’ show at there and things spin out of control.

Directed by Jung Bum-shik (Horror Stories, Epitaph), it was produced by Hive Mediacorp. It features Wi Ha-jun, Park Ji-hyun, Oh Ah-yeon, Mun Ye-won, Park Sung-hun, Lee Seung-wook and Yoo Je-yoon.

The $1.5m horror film is set for local release March 28.

Filming has been underway for the last several weeks on Damien Leone’s Terrifier 3, the next installment in one of the most popular new horror franchises of the modern era.

Coming to theaters later this year from Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting, Terrifier 3 aims to raise the bar even further on the gruesome exploits of Art the Clown, and Leone has taken a little break from filming this morning to tease an insane sequence the team just got on camera.

Damien Leone tweets from the set of Terrifier 3, “Can honestly say we just filmed one of the most insanely horrific scenes of the Terrifier franchise and you’ll never believe who couldn’t handle it on set 😬😂 🤮 the bts is hilarious. Can’t wait for you all to see!”

Considering 2022’s Terrifier 2 had people throwing up and fainting in theaters, well, it’s safe to say that nobody is prepared for the uncut brutality of this year’s sequel. Stay tuned for more.

Art the Clown is slashing his way through Christmas in the upcoming third installment, with David Howard Thornton back as Art and Lauren LaVera returning as adversary Sienna.

In Terrifier 3, “Art the Clown unleashes chaos on the unsuspecting residents of Miles County as they peacefully drift off to sleep on Christmas Eve.”

Terrifier 3 will release in theaters nationwide on October 25, 2024, with Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting handling North American distribution, sold by The Coven, who also reps international rights on the film. Watch the first look teaser here.
