Alexandra Daddario Leads the Cast of Heavy Metal Horror Film ‘We Summon the Darkness’ [Trailer]
Saban Films heads back to 1988 with the upcoming Satanic Panic horror flick We Summon the Darkness, directed by Marc Meyers (My Friend Dahmer) and headed to VOD next month.
We Summon the Darkness arrives on VOD and Digital HD on April 10, 2020.
Alexandra Daddario (Texas Chainsaw 3D) stars in the film, centered on a group of friends caught in the middle of a killing spree by murderous Satanists who have already left 18 dead.
“Three best friends Alexis (Daddario), Val and Beverly embark on a road trip to a heavy metal music festival. Naive, they bond with three seemingly fun-loving dudes and soon the group heads off to Alexis’ country home, a very secluded place, for an afterparty. What should be a night of fun and youthful debauchery may instead take a dark, deadly turn. With killers on the loose, can anyone be trusted?”
Cast also includes Alita: Battle Angel‘s Keean Johnson, “Jackass” star Johnny Knoxville, Maddie Hasson (God Bless America), and Amy Forsyth (“Channel Zero: Dream Door”).
Check out the official trailer below and keep this one on your radar. Meagan Navarro reviewed it for us last year at Fantastic Fest, calling the film a “metal mayhem joyride.”
It’s now been five years since the release of sequel Happy Death Day 2U, Christopher Landon’s sequel to the Groundhog Day-style slasher movie from 2017. Both films star Jessica Rothe as final girl Tree Gelbman, and director Christopher Landon had been planning on bringing the character – and the actor – back for a third installment. So… where is it?!
We’ve been talking about a potential Happy Death Day 3 for several years now, with the ball in producer Jason Blum’s court. Happy Death Day 2U scared up $64 million at the worldwide box office, a far cry from the first film’s $125 million. But with a reported production budget of just $9 million, that first sequel was profitable for Blumhouse. So again… where is it?!
Chatting with Screen Geek this week while promoting her new action-thriller Boy Kills World, franchise star Jessica Rothe provided a hopeful update on Happy Death Day 3.
“Well, I can say Chris Landon has the whole thing figured out,” Rothe explains. “We just need to wait for Blumhouse and Universal to get their ducks in a row.
Rothe continues in her comments to Screen Geek, “But my fingers are so crossed. I think Tree [Gelbman] deserves her third and final chapter to bring that incredible character and franchise to a close or a new beginning.”
Back in 2020, Christopher Landon had revealed that the working title for the third installment was Happy Death Day to Us, said to be “different than the other two films.”
In the meantime, Christopher Landon is directing a mysterious thriller titled Drop for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes, along with a werewolf movie titled Big Bad for Lionsgate.
