‘Death Rider in the House of Vampires’: Glenn Danzig’s Vampire Spaghetti-Western Gets August Theatrical Release!
It looks as if Glenn Danzig is bringing his Vampire Spaghetti-Western Death Rider in the House of Vampires to theaters this fall.
Fan site 7th House is reporting that Danzig’s second feature film, the follow-up to his so-bad-it’s-good Verotika, will open across the US at select theaters on August 27th.
They add that there will also be two advance screenings the week before in Las Vegas & Los Angeles. More details as they come in.
Danzig himself appears in a supporting role as “Bad Bathory” alongside a cast including Final Destination‘s Devon Sawa (photo), Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 star Kim Director (photo), and Julian Sands (photo), star of Gothic, Warlock, Romasanta: The Werewolf Hunt, Boxing Helena, and Arachnophobia. Danny Trejo and filmmaker Eli Roth also appear.
Sawa plays the title character, the Death Rider in the house of vampires, with Director playing Carmilla Jo and Sands as Count Holliday, who rules the Vampire Sanctuary.
“Everybody in the movie is a vampire,” Danzig had teased a while back now. “So, you won’t have to wait around to see the vampire. They’re all fucking vampires!”
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.
