‘Circle Line’ Poster and Clip Reveal the Creature in Singapore’s First Monster Movie
Pulling into the station this weekend in Singapore is J.D. Chua‘s monster movie Circle Line, which is notable for being the first big creature feature to come out of Singapore.
“The film features what is said to be a big mutant lizard/rat hybrid monster,” Bloody Disgusting has been told, and that monster is glimpsed on the official poster you’ll find below.
The monster in the movie was designed by Victor Marin, and you can also see bits and pieces of it in the previously released trailer and first clip that you’ll also find down below.
In the film, “Trapped in the underground train tunnel system, a single mother’s resolve to protect her son is tested to the extreme as both of them are the few remaining survivors of an attack by a monster. Meanwhile in the control room, duty engineers fight desperately to rescue the trapped survivors.”
Jesseca Liu, Andie Chen, Peter Yu, Patrick Pei-hsu Lee, Alan Tan, Nathaniel Ng, Johnny Ng, and Ashley Seow star in Circle Line, written by Siew Pek Chye, Allan Ho, and Andrew Chiang Meng Ngin. The film is produced by MM2 Asia, MM2 Entertainment, and Taipan Films.
Thanks to Avery Guerra for bringing this one to our attention.
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.
