‘Fair Game’ – Dark Star Bringing Ozploitation Classic That Inspired Quentin Tarantino’s ‘Death Proof’ to Theaters! [Trailer]
Dark Star Pictures is set to release Ozploitation classic Fair Game on the big screen across North America, Bloody Disgusting learned today.
A bonafide Aussie classic, one that would later inspire Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof, Fair Game is a wild revenge thriller set in the outback pitting Cassandra Delaney’s wildlife sanctuary boss against three psycho kangaroo hunters.
“Bored with killing kangaroos, they decide to kill the animals in the sanctuary, and when they see how attractive the owner is, they decide to have a little ‘fun’ with her, too.
“Turns out that they may get a bit more ‘fun’ than they bargained for…”
Directed by Emmy Winner Mario Andreacchio and shot by Oscar Winner Andrew Lesnie (The Lord of the Rings trilogy), Fair Game also stars Peter Ford, David Sandford, Garry Who, and Don Barker.
Fair Game will open theatrically July 8 before a digital release July 12. A physical release is planned for August.
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.
