New Image from Next Year’s ‘The Grudge’ Catches a Glimpse of Something Horrifying
The Grudge is set to bring the franchise back to life on January 3, 2020, and director Nicolas Pesce (The Eyes of My Mother, Piercing), producer Sam Raimi and stars Betty Gilpin (“Glow”) and Lin Shaye (Insidious) all took part in a panel at New York Comic Con today to preview and promote the film. In the wake of the NYCC panel, a new image has been released.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like any of the video shown off at NYCC will be making its way online, but you can at least check out the spooky shot below. What are we looking at here?!
“I never get to be this fucked up in a movie,” Lin Shaye teased during the panel. Raimi noted, “The key is injecting new life through performers and a director of this caliber.”
In the new movie, which takes place during the events of The Grudge 2004, “A house is cursed by a vengeful ghost that dooms those who enter it with a violent death.”
The cast also includes Andrea Riseborough, John Cho, Demián Bichir and Jacki Weaver.
You’ll never watch Jaws the same way again. That’s the promise being made by Jaws Explored, an upcoming deep dive documentary that examines the horror classic like never before.
From CreatorVC and director Ian Nathan, Jaws Explored is said to provide “a new way of looking at Spielberg’s classic that will deliver the deepest analysis of Jaws ever made.”
From the producers of The Thing Expanded and the In Search of Darkness series, Jaws Explored is the first in a brand new deep dive format that bears the “Explored” branding.
Jaws Explored is estimated to become available in August 2027, and the documentary can be pre-ordered now exclusively through the CreatorVC website. Now through August 9, you can secure your Blu-ray, the 80-page companion book, and even get your name in the credits.
The team previews, “You already know the stories: the broken shark; the seasick crew; the movie that almost sank. If you want more, this is for you. Jaws Explored is a new way of looking at Spielberg’s classic that will deliver the deepest analysis ever made. We’re gathering the best voices in cinema and stepping into the film itself to unpack what makes a masterpiece.
“Jaws has some great documentaries already. We’ve seen them and we love them, but we want more. Jaws Explored asks different questions: not what happened on set, but instead examining how and why this film has worked so well, for so long. What is Jaws’ true genius? Why do we keep coming back to it again and again? And what does it tell us about ourselves?”
“Together, we’ll go through Jaws moment by moment, stopping to examine what makes each bit special,” the team behind Jaws Explored promises. “Directors and editors weigh in on the significance of a cut, film historians deliver vital context, while psychologists break down why we’re still afraid, even 51 years and many watches later.”
You can pre-order your copy of Jaws Explored right now.
