‘New Fears Eve’ Trailer – Upcoming Slasher Movie Slices and Dices at a New Year’s Eve Party
A brand new New Years-themed horror movie is on the way with New Fears Eve slashing our way soon, and this one’s produced by horror veteran Jeffrey Reddick (Final Destination).
Reddick, who created the Final Destination franchise, will produce and star in the film.
This horror-comedy is currently raising finishing funds over on Indiegogo, and the official trailer has sliced its way online today. Preview New Fears Eve with the trailer below.
Jeffrey Reddick tells BD, “I went down to Kentucky to shoot my scenes and got to work with Dave Sheridan and Felissa Rose, which was a blast. “The Doctor” kills over 35 people in all kinds of unique ways. There are definitely some gruesome kills you haven’t seen before.”
In New Fears Eve from Blood Moon Pictures…
“When three co-workers are forced to host their company’s annual New Year’s Eve party, they’re not prepared for an unexpected guest: a serial killer dubbed “The Doctor,” who targets the party and turns the night of celebration into a bloodbath and fight for survival.”
Eric Huskisson and P.J. Starks are directing New Fears Eve, and the cast includes Felissa Rose (Sleepaway Camp), Dave Sheridan (Scary Movie), Hannah Fierman (V/H/S), Lily Claire Harvey, Jay Woolston, Alyssa Rhoads, Roni Jonah, Turner Vaughn and Jesse MacDonald.
Special Effects will be handled by Taintbad Productions’ Stephen J. Hodke (Stranded, Wicked Ones, Mr. Buzzkill) with Isa Suzanne and Blaze Bolden.
It’s been eight years since Ari Aster came onto the scene and helped usher in a new wave of horror with Hereditary, one of the rare horror movies from the past ten years that still seems to come up in conversation every single week. And it’s back in the conversation this week, with Ari Aster revealing at an event that he’s already written a prequel to Hereditary!
Ari Aster was on hand at the American Cinematheque for Bleak Week: Cinema of Despair last week, a Los Angeles festival that screened all of Aster’s movies to date. The website Gold Derby reports that Aster revealed the Hereditary prequel script during a Q&A at the event, and you can watch the full Q&A conversation below for confirmation on the website’s report.
“I wrote a prequel to this,” Aster told the crowd, referring to Hereditary. “It never feels like the right time to do it. It’s a prequel, not a sequel so I don’t know where this goes.”
Would a potential Hereditary prequel dig deeper into the mythology of demon king Paimon? Unfortunately, Aster provides no further details on his prequel approach at this time.
Aster said of Hereditary during the same Q&A, “I was just trying to make a really good horror movie.” I think most horror fans would agree that he more than accomplished that goal, and the past eight years have proven that Hereditary is an enduring classic of its generation.
We celebrated the fifth anniversary of Hereditary here on BD back in 2023.
Ron Breton wrote, “Hereditary offers a similar emotional resonance to this new generation of horror – my generation of horror– as movie-goers in the seventies when they first saw Exorcist. Much like Aster’s film, we see the incomprehensible evil wear the face of a young girl; the victim of a raw deal she had no say in, as it tears a family to its core. Sure, both films offer so many terrifying visuals that can make the hair stand up on anyone’s neck – but it also depicts intense relationships and emotions that are tangible. Real. Familiar.”
“In that familiarity lies the uncanny, ready to rear its ugly head and force us to confront thoughts and horrors laying dormant and clawing at our psyche,” Breton continued his 5th anniversary celebration of Hereditary. “And it doesn’t matter if it’s been five or fifty years. These horrors are always there, as we become pawns in its horrible, hopeless machine.”
Toni Collette, Gabriel Byrne, Alex Wolff, Ann Dowd, and Milly Shapiro star in Hereditary. In the film, “A grieving family is haunted by tragic and disturbing occurrences.”
That’s putting it mildly, eh?!
