‘The Red’ – First Look at Killer Kangaroo Horror Movie; Watch the Short Film It’s Based On Here!
There’s an outbreak in the outback in the upcoming killer kangaroo creature feature The Red, and Bloody Disgusting has been provided with a first-look sneak peek this afternoon.
In the film, which is now in post production, “Obsessed with living up to her dead father’s legacy a young sheriff finds her mettle tested when locals are found ripped to shreds.”
The Red is a feature expansion of Ryan Coonan’s 2014 smash festival short film Waterborne, and it’s directed by Coonan and written by Coonan and Richard Barcaricchio.
Micheal Biehn, Tess Haubrich, Aaron Pederson and Angie Milliken star.
You can watch the original short film below, which at the time was said to be “the world’s first zombie kangaroo film, and a prequel for a feature film currently in development.”
Nine years – and 1.6 million views on YouTube! – later, Waterborne has finally become feature film The Red. Stay tuned for more on this one as we learn it, including a release date.
It’s now been five years since the release of sequel Happy Death Day 2U, Christopher Landon’s sequel to the Groundhog Day-style slasher movie from 2017. Both films star Jessica Rothe as final girl Tree Gelbman, and director Christopher Landon had been planning on bringing the character – and the actor – back for a third installment. So… where is it?!
We’ve been talking about a potential Happy Death Day 3 for several years now, with the ball in producer Jason Blum’s court. Happy Death Day 2U scared up $64 million at the worldwide box office, a far cry from the first film’s $125 million. But with a reported production budget of just $9 million, that first sequel was profitable for Blumhouse. So again… where is it?!
Chatting with Screen Geek this week while promoting her new action-thriller Boy Kills World, franchise star Jessica Rothe provided a hopeful update on Happy Death Day 3.
“Well, I can say Chris Landon has the whole thing figured out,” Rothe explains. “We just need to wait for Blumhouse and Universal to get their ducks in a row.
Rothe continues in her comments to Screen Geek, “But my fingers are so crossed. I think Tree [Gelbman] deserves her third and final chapter to bring that incredible character and franchise to a close or a new beginning.”
Back in 2020, Christopher Landon had revealed that the working title for the third installment was Happy Death Day to Us, said to be “different than the other two films.”
In the meantime, Christopher Landon is directing a mysterious thriller titled Drop for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes, along with a werewolf movie titled Big Bad for Lionsgate.
