Fox Announces Untitled Vampire Spoof Film for This Summer
Vampires are all the craze these days — too bad it’s mostly with the tweenie Twilight fans. Beyond Twilight we’ve seen Liongsate’s Daybreakers, HBO’s “True Blood” drama, WB’s “The Vampire Diaries”, and the forthcoming ABC series “The Gates”. There are multiple films in production ranging from Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter to The Last Voyage of the Demeter. The possibilities are endless, which is why 20th Century Fox is prepping to release yet another vomit-inducing spoof movie based around the vampire craze. The shocker? It’s coming out on August 18 of this summer. The pic is from Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, the craptacular duo behind Disaster Movie, Epic Movie, Date Movie, and Meet the Spartans. A guaranteed “suck”-fest? Yes. It has already been rated PG-13. Earlier this month it was announced that Fully Mooned, a Twilight spoof had entered pre-production. Maybe this is the film? More soon, I’m sure.
Guaranteed funnier than movie…
Robert Eggers (The Witch, Nosferatu) is back later this year with new horror movie Werwulf, and the very first teaser image from the hotly anticipated movie has surfaced tonight.
Oddly enough, this first look comes courtesy of the NBC Store, and it gives us a glimpse at a chilly Winter landscape from the film. Is there a werewolf hiding in the photo? Maybe…
Set in 13th century England, Werwulf sees a mysterious creature stalk the land as local folklore becomes a terrifying reality. The film hits theaters on December 25 via Focus Features.
Robert Eggers recently teased, “It’s the darkest thing I’ve ever written. By far.”
Eggers directs from a script he penned with his The Northman co-writer Sjón.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Nosferatu), Lily-Rose Depp (Nosferatu), Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse), Ralph Ineson (The Witch), and Bodhi Rae Breathnach (Hamnet) star.
Robert Eggers and Sjón produce alongside Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner for Working Title. Maiden Voyage’s Chris Columbus and Eleanor Columbus are executive producing.
