‘There’s Something Wrong With the Children’ – Images From Roxanne Benjamin’s New Horror Movie Releasing January 2023! [Exclusive]
Blumhouse has joined forces with EPIX to “develop and produce eight elevated, standalone horror/genre-thriller movies exclusively for the network,” and up next from that collaboration is There’s Something Wrong With the Children, directed by Roxanne Benjamin (V/H/S, Southbound)!
Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive look at the first images and poster art, which has heavy Stephen King vibes!
Benjamin is a huge part of the Bloody Disgusting family, having helped us acquire our awesome BD Selects line of films and also producing both V/H/S and V/H/S/2 before going on to direct a segment in our horror anthology Southbound. She also helmed indie thriller Body at Brighton Rock, plus episodes of “Creepshow”, “Riverdale”, and “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”.
The cast for There’s Something Wrong With the Children includes Zach Gilford (“The Purge: Anarchy”), Amanda Crew (“Silicon Valley”), Alisha Wainwright (“Raising Dion”), Carlos Santos (“Gentefied”), Briella Guiza (“Ambulance”) and David Mattle (“Life & Beth”).
“When Margaret (Wainwright) and Ben (Gilford) take a weekend trip with longtime friends Ellie (Crew) and Thomas (Santos) and their two young children (Guiza and Mattle), Ben begins to suspect something supernatural is occurring when the kids behave strangely after disappearing into the woods overnight.”
Catch Benjamin’s latest on Digital and On Demand on January 17, 2023, before it hits MGM+ on March 17, 2023.
Norway’s deepest fjord isn’t just unleashing a mythic monster in Kraken, but its monstrous deep sea parasites as well.
Watch our exclusive clip below, which introduces the skittering, skin-crawling aquatic menaces on the attack.
Samuel Goldwyn Films will release the Kraken in select theaters and on digital June 12.
Here’s the synopsis: “A marine biologist encounters several strange occurrences while researching a fjord, including the brutal deaths of two local teenagers. At the bottom of Norway’s deepest fjord rests a mythical monster as large as a mountain, with a myriad of arms ready to crush and devour anything they can grab.”
Pål Øie (The Tunnel) directs from a script by Vilde Eide, Kjersti Jelen Rasmussen, and Natasha Arthur.
Sara Khorami (Troll 2), Mikkel Bratt Silset, Øyvind Brandtzæg, Jenny Evensen, Ingvild Holthe Bygdnes, Jon Erik Myre, Hans Morten Hansen, Steinar Klouman Hallert, and Filip Bargee Ramberg star.
The behemoth beast from the deep is the latest kaiju-sized aquatic creature harboring a horde of bloodthirsty parasites, joining the likes of Cloverfield and Underwater. Naturally, the Kraken itself serves as the much bigger threat.
It’s also about time that the Kraken received its own feature; though Meg 2: The Trench featured a Kraken-like beast in its climax, the Kraken hasn’t been fully unleashed since Clash of the Titans.
Watch out for the Kraken in limited theaters and on VOD this Friday.
