Director Andrew Saullo teased fans back in December during The Horror Game Awards with the teaser trailer to the upcoming Resident Evil fan short, The Keeper’s Diary: A Biohazard Story. And now, we’re getting the full Monty with the official trailer for The Keeper’s Diary.

The trailer for The Keeper’s Diary features more shots of The Keeper (played by Charlie Kraslavsky) in various stages of zombification, as well as Jill Valentine discovering The Keeper’s room. We do get a shots of dogs (no sign of Cerberus just yet), as well as a quick shot of a Hunter (?!), The Keeper munching on a snake (!!), and Ward E. Sexton doing his iconic “Resident Evil” voice.

Inspired by the original Resident Evil and its 2002 remake, The Keeper’s Diary: A Biohazard Story is an adaptation of the diary entry of the same name found in the Spencer Mansion. It summarizes a researcher (Kraslavsky, who played Chris Redfield in the live-action cutscenes in Resident Evil) succumbing to a viral outbreak in an underground research facility. The film will also feature Ward E. Sexton, who did the iconic “Resident Evil” voiceover when you started a new game, as well as Gracie Madsen (who plays Jill Valentine) and Frank Scalabrino.

In addition to Kraslavsky and Sexton, another Resident Evil alumni, Pablo Kuntz (voice actor for the original Resident Evil‘s Albert Wesker) is also part of the cast as a voice actor.

Composer Duane C. Merritt will be providing the score for the short film, while Andy Cox serves as producer.

The Keeper’s Diary is aiming for a 2024 release (for free) on the Residence of Evil YouTube Channel.

The Birthday Murders: Viral Marketing Website Launches for ‘Longlegs’

Published

on

NEON has been absolutely slaying the marketing game for their horror output this year, and they’re kicking the Longlegs campaign into high gear with one more month until release.

A cryptic ad in The Seattle Times today (seen below) has led clever horror fans to discover TheBirthdayMurders.net, the brand new official viral marketing website for Longlegs.

The in-universe website details the victims of the serial killer known as Longlegs (Nicolas Cage), described as a “Satan-worshipping psycho” who has terrorized families throughout the Pacific Northwest for nearly three decades.

The website details, “A bloody trail of bodies here in the great state of Oregon attests to the depraved savagery of this one-of-a-kind serial killer. With over three dozen victims that we know of, LONGLEGS is one of the most prolific mass murderers ever to have graced the region, and his gruesome endeavors are the stuff of nightmares. At first, all of the killings appeared to be straightforward murder-suicides: the handiwork of average men who suddenly snapped and slaughtered their wives and children. But a series of eerie coded messages left at the crime scenes indicate that someone – or something – is influencing these horrific crimes. The cryptic letters are signed by someone calling himself LONGLEGS.”

“With thirty-eight kills to his name, LONGLEGS has torn apart the lives of eleven different families throughout the Beaver State. His victims were good people: honest fathers, decent mothers, innocent little children.”

The website is loaded with secrets, clues, and gruesome (faux) crime scene photos, and you might even find a mention of yours truly nestled in there. Poke around. Stay a while.

Longlegs arrives in theaters July 12.

The upcoming serial killer horror movie marks the return of director Osgood Perkins (The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Gretel & Hansel). Nicolas Cage stars alongside Maika Monroe, with Monroe playing an FBI agent and Cage playing a serial killer.

In the film, “FBI Agent Lee Harker (Monroe) is a gifted new recruit assigned to the unsolved case of an elusive serial killer (Cage). As the case takes complex turns, unearthing evidence of the occult, Harker discovers a personal connection to the merciless killer and must race against time to stop him before he claims the lives of another innocent family.

The film is rated “R” for “Bloody violence, disturbing images and some language.”
