[Exclusive] First Look at Barbara Crampton in Upcoming Cthulhu Horror ‘The Colour of Madness’
Principal photography has now wrapped on The Colour of Madness, starring genre favourite Barbara Crampton alongside up and coming actors Sophie Stevens and Ludovic Hughes.
The official synopsis of the film is: “After the death of his mother, Isaac and his pregnant wife Emma return to the remote Norwegian island of his birth to deal with an unexpected inheritance. They find themselves caught in a nightmare as an ancient cosmic horror awakens to claim a birth right of its own.”
Bloody Disgusting can exclusively reveal more details. Set amidst the beautiful, otherworldly scenery of the Norwegian Fjords, the film combines the “strangers ensnared by a dangerous pagan cult” themes from classics like The Wicker Man with a heavy dose of H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos. Fans of The Call of Cthulhu in particular will spot a lot of Easter eggs at the front of the action.
Co-director Andy Collier said, “Production so far has gone well and we couldn’t be happier about how the film is coming together. We are using 100% practical effects, with some disgusting looking robotic tentacles for a few body horror shocks, together with a very dark, creepy story – hopefully the final movie will get a great big thumbs up from horror fans.”
Lead Sophie Stevens said, “I’m so excited to share this eerie story that we discovered hidden behind the beauty we found in Norway! My advice is: stay away from the water…”
Barbara Crampton added, “I’m delighted to return to my horror roots and bring a frightening Lovecratian story to life. Do we really manage control of our destiny? Or are we hurtling towards an inevitable, unspeakable end which is out of our hands? The Colour of Madness will make you question yourself, your choices and the ones you love the most.”
The film is now in post production and will hit the festival circuit in 2020.
Daniel Roebuck has been cast as Santa Claus in Terrifier 3, Bloody Disgusting can exclusively report.
Writer-director Damien Leone is currently wrapping production on the highly-anticipated sequel, in which Art the Clown unleashes chaos on the unsuspecting residents of Miles County as they peacefully drift off to sleep on Christmas Eve.
“I’ve been holding this secret for a long time!” Roebuck tells Bloody Disgusting. “I’ve been really excited about it. I’m actually entering into the movies that I watch. It’s extraordinary. This is Terrifier bigger, badder, best.”
Roebuck appears in Terrifier 3 alongside returning cast members David Howard Thornton, Lauren LaVera, Samantha Scaffidi, Elliot Fullam, and AEW superstar Chris Jericho.
No stranger to iconic horror properties, Roebuck has squared off against Michael Myers in Rob Zombie’s Halloween II, played The Count in Zombie’s The Munsters, succumbed to The Tall Man’s sphere in Phantasm: Ravager, and investigated death in Final Destination.
A distinguished character actor with over 250 credits, Roebuck has also appeared in The Devil’s Rejects, 3 from Hell, Bubba Ho-Tep, John Dies at the End, The Fugitive, Lost, Agent Cody Banks, and The Man in the High Castle. Incidentally, he’s also playing Santa in the family drama Saint Nick of Bethlehem, due out later this year.
Terrifier 3 will be released in theaters nationwide later this year via Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting in conjunction with our partner on Terrifier 2, Iconic Events Releasing.
