‘Dark Harvest’ Rated “R” for “Strong Horror Violence and Gore”; Releasing This Friday
Directed by David Slade (Hard Candy, 30 Days of Night, “Hannibal”), the long awaited Dark Harvest, an adaptation of Norman Partridge’s novel, is finally releasing this week.
Sawtooth Jack rises on October 13, and the film will be available on Digital outlets at home. It’s also coming to theaters for one night only at Alamo Drafthouse Theaters October 11.
How much gore can you expect? Dark Harvest has been rated “R” for…
“Strong horror violence and gore, language throughout and brief drug use.”
In the film…
“In a cursed town, the annual harvest becomes a brutal battle for survival. On Halloween 1963, Sawtooth Jack, a terrifying legend, rises from the cornfields, threatening the town’s children. Groups of boys unite to defeat the murderous scarecrow before midnight. Richie, a rebellious outcast, joins the run, motivated by his brother’s previous victory. As the hunt progresses, Richie makes a shocking discovery and faces a pivotal choice to break the relentless cycle.”
Elizabeth Reaser (“The Haunting of Hill House”), Jeremy Davies (“Hannibal”), Luke Kirby (No Man of God), Casey Likes (“The Birch”) and Emyri Crutchfield (“Tell Me Your Secrets”) star. Michael Gilio wrote the adaptation of Partridge’s Halloween novel.
Sony returns to their own Marvel universe with the upcoming Kraven the Hunter, which has been bumped all over the release schedule. This week, it’s been bumped once more.
There was a time when Sony was going to unleash Kraven in theaters in October 2023, but the film was then bumped to August 2024. It’ll now release on December 13, 2024.
Kraven the Hunter will be the very first Marvel movie from Sony to be released into theaters with an “R” rating, with lots of bloody violence being promised.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the title character, Marvel’s ultimate predator.
“Kraven the Hunter is the visceral story about how and why one of Marvel’s most iconic villains came to be. Set before his notorious vendetta with Spider-Man, Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the titular character in the R-rated film.”
Ariana DeBose will play Calypso in the upcoming Kraven the Hunter movie.
Christopher Abbott (Possessor) is playing The Foreigner, with Levi Miller (Better Watch Out) also on board. Alessandro Nivola (The Many Saints of Newark) will play another villain, but character details are under wraps. Russell Crowe and Fred Hechinger also star.
J.C. Chandor (A Most Violent Year) is directing Kraven the Hunter.
The screenplay was written by Art Marcum & Matt Holloway and Richard Wenk.
