Free ‘Jonah Hex’ Screening In Orlando
Even though you wouldn’t know it from the lack of advertising, Neveldine & Taylor’s scripted adaptation of DC’s Jonah Hex is hitting theatres next Friday, June 18 and B-D has the hook-up for our readers in the Orlando area. We’re hosting a free screening on Wednesday, June 16, at 7:30 at Regal Winter Park (510 N. Orlando Ave.). To win one of one hundred passes (good for two people each), all you have to do is show up at 6 PM, when we’ll be standing out front of the theatre. Tickets will be given out on a first come, first served basis. And really, how can you turn down seeing machine guns mounted on a horse for free?
Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks, the married writing-directing duo behind the pandemic horror movie Alone With You, are back with the new horror movie Blood Shine.
Blood Shine is coming to theaters, VOD, and Digital on August 21 from Dark Sky Films.
Set in a desolate expanse of upstate New York, Blood Shine centers around Clara, a religious zealot who worships light in lonely, sacred rituals. When problematic horror director Brighton West travels upstate to finish the screenplay for his next film, a chance encounter with Clara leads him into a hallucinatory web of faith, flesh, and the sublime.
Bennett also stars in the film, in addition to writing and directing with Brooks.
Brendan Sexton III (Session 9), David Call (Insidious: The Red Door), Larry Fessenden (You’re Next), and Toby Poser (Recluse, Hellbender) also star.
“We are thrilled to bring Blood Shine to North American audiences,” added Dark Sky executive vice president Greg Newman. “Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks have created a daring and visually arresting film that expands the boundaries of folk horror and really delivers.”
Producers include Aaron B. Koontz via Paper Street Pictures (Shelby Oaks, Scare Package) and Alexander Schepsman, Garrett Fennelly and Zeus Kontoyannis via Zeus Pictures.
Ashleigh Snead and Cameron Burns serve as co-producers for Paper Street. Michael McFadden, G. Riley Mills, and Matt Sullivan executive produce.
Watch the new trailer below that introduces an eerie Larry Fessenden as a faith figure with a sadistic streak.
