Cool ‘Unfriended: Dark Web’ Poster Riffs On ‘Pulse’ Artwork
Death wants some face time…
The trailer for Stephen Susco‘s Unfriended: Dark Web, a sequel to 2014’s Unfriended, snuck onto the “dark web” yesterday. Now, we’ve been provided with the film’s official poster that looks shockingly similar to that of the Japanese horror movie Pulse (Kairo), which is also is about the horrors of the internet. Here’s the Pulse DVD art from Japan with the excellent Unfriended poster shared below.
Trace raves that the sequel “shows just how scary the Internet can be”…
“When a 20-something finds a cache of hidden files on his new laptop, he is thrust into the deep waters of the dark web.”
Colin Woodell (Unsane), Betty Gabriel (Get Out, Purge: Election Year), Stephanie Nogueras (Grimm, Criminal Minds), Rebecca Rittenhouse (Blood & Oil, Suits), Andrew Lees (The Pacific), Connor Del Rio (Level Up), and Savira Windyani (Ink & Rain) star.
BH Tilt has dated the film for release on July 20, 2018.
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
