Sundance ’10: Low Quality Look at the Official One Sheet for ‘Frozen’
BD reader Joey M. tipped us off to the official website for Ariescope that features a tiny look at the official festival one sheet for Anchor Bay’s Sundance Film Festival 2010 selection, Frozen, the forthcoming chiller from writer/director Adam Green (Hatchet). The one sheet is very reminiscent of the beautiful poster for Open Water and features a look at the stranded skiers in peril. Frozen stars Kevin Zegers, Emma Bell and Shawn Ashmore as three skiers that are mistakenly stranded on a chairlift and forced to make life-or-death choices that prove more perilous than staying put and freezing to death. Anchor Bay will release it in theaters February 5th following its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in January.
The next installment in the long-running film franchise, Evil Dead Burn just received its ‘R’ rating last week for “strong bloody horror violence and gore, and language,” making it clear that the new movie is aiming to be another ultimate experience in grueling terror. That’s the Evil Dead tradition, after all. But just how gory is Evil Dead Burn going to be?
Well, according to director Sébastien Vaniček, the theatrical cut of the movie won’t be quite as brutal as the Director’s Cut he hopes to release on home video down the road.
Vaniček tells SFX Magazine (via Games Radar), “There is a scene that is not R-rated. It’s a really, really hard scene. And I have to cut it, unfortunately, so you just won’t experience it as brutally as it is right now because I need to have the R-rated movie. So we are trying to find a good balance.”
The outlet notes that this interview was conducted before Evil Dead Burn officially received its ‘R’ rating, so it seems Vaniček was ultimately able to make the MPA happy with his edits.
“The director’s cut will be way more violent than what we will have in the theater,” Vaniček promises.
Even still, Evil Dead Burn is being promoted as “the franchise’s most savage and terrifying ride to date,” so there will be no shortage of bloody violence in the rated ‘R’ theatrical cut!
Evil Dead Burn releases in theaters nationwide July 10, 2026.
