Young Genre Vet Freshly Bitten in ‘Eclipse’
Creepy genre vet Jodelle Ferland (pictured below) is the latest addition to the Twilight franchise, joining the David Slade directed The Twilight Saga: Eclipse as a vampire who has just been turned. Genre fans would best remember Ferland from Silent Hill and also stars in MGM’s The Cabin in the Woods and Paramount’s forthcoming Case 39, which has been sitting on the shelf for years now. But that’s not all as you can catch her performing in They, BloodRayne II, The Messengers, Seed and the TV remake of Carrie (wowsers). She will star alongside Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Xavier Samuel and the newly added Bryce Dallas Howard. Summit is aiming to get this in theaters by June 30, 2010
Horror stalwart Richard Brake (Barbarian, The Strangers trilogy) puppeteers a dangerous secret as Geppetto in a new clip from Pinocchio Unstrung.
Part of the cinematic universe known as the “Poohniverse,” Pinocchio Unstrung puts a horror movie spin on the classic tale, releasing in theaters on July 24, 2026.
Meet Geppetto and his creepy wooden puppet in an official clip from Pinocchio Unstrung below.
The chilling reimagining of the familiar fable is set inside an elite London prep school. Created by Geppetto and influenced by a sinister Cricket, Pinocchio launches a violent crusade to carve himself into a real boy like his brother, one piece at a time…
Horror icon Robert Englund (Nightmare on Elm Street) voices the role of Cricket.
Pinocchio is voiced by Jude Evan Lloyd and brought to life via a practical animatronic created by Todd Masters (“Tales from the Crypt,” Slither). Cameron Bell, Jessica Balmer, Jack Art Gray, and Peter De Souza-Feighoney also star.
Rhys Frake-Waterfield (Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey) writes and directs the fairy tale slasher, in addition to producing alongside Scott Jeffrey via their Jagged Edge Productions.
Pinocchio Unstrung has been rated ‘R’ for “strong bloody horror violence and gore, language and brief graphic nudity.”
This is fifth entry in the Twisted Childhood Universe, following Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey and its sequel, Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare, and Bambi: The Reckoning.
The Poohniverse continues with Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 3, currently in production, and the crossover film Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble, slated to shoot this summer.
