See ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2’ On The Big Screen!
Live in Los Angeles but not at Comic Con? Our own BC has got you covered! This Saturday, July 24th, at 11:55 PM, BC will host a screening of Tobe Hooper’s awesome Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 at the equally awesome New Beverly Cinema. The 1986 film, starring the late Dennis Hopper, will screen from an original 35mm print, and BC will have some DVDs to give away as well. Even better, star Caroline Williams (“Stretch”) will be in attendance (schedule permitting) and will provide a brief Q&A before the film, so get there early! Tickets are 7 bucks at the door, but you can also buy online via BrownPaperTickets. See you there!
The new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), the upcoming Weapons has been adding to its cast all week, and today brings another update.
Deadline reports that Benedict Wong (3 Body Problem), Amy Madigan (Antlers), Austin Abrams (Euphoria), and Cary Christopher (Days of Our Lives) have all signed on.
They join previously announced stars Josh Brolin (Dune 2), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Alden Ehrenreich (Cocaine Bear) in the mysterious horror movie.
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
