‘The Monster Is Coming’ Trailer – Chinese Monster Movie Features Kaiju Pangolin vs. Giant Snake
A super-sized pangolin does battle with a giant snake in the upcoming Chinese monster movie The Monster Is Coming, and we’ve got the trailer and first 8-minutes for you this week.
No word yet on a U.S. release date for this one. Stay tuned. Check out the trailer below and find the opening sequence underneath, which unleashes the Kaiju-sized pangolin monster.
In The Monster Is Coming, “Kaos Island, co-constructed by High Seas International, has a beautiful environment and rich ecological resources. It is the last pure land for rare wild animals. The island’s one-handed company Fire Biotechnology accidentally lost two genetically mutated monsters in a transaction with its employer, causing a series of hurtful incidents.
“But what is unexpected is that while Song Nan, a young biologist, was investigating the incident, his biological daughter Xiaoting was abducted by a monster. What makes Song Nan even more unexpected is that these two mutated monsters are secretly related to his ex-wife Zhou Qian! An arduous task of searching, subduing the monster, and rescuing Xiaoting begins. In this race against time, Song Nan was unknowingly involved in a bigger conspiracy.”
Liu Bojun directed the film, written by Jiang Longfei and Chen Chen.
Leo Ao, Jing Su, Norman Chu, Zhang Haocheng, Hu Bin and Yang Qingqian star.
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.
