Hi-Res Image Gallery: New Line’s Exorcism Horror ‘The Rite’
From 1408 director Mikael Hafstrom comes The Rite (in theaters January 28), New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. Pictures’ exorcism horror flick starring Anthony Hopkins, Colin O’Donoghue, Alice Braga, Ciaran Hinds, and Toby Jones. The studio is kick-starting their campaign, which is why we were provided with 28 new hi-res images fro the flick that tells the (supposed) true story that follows skeptical seminary student Michael Kovak (O’Donoghue), who reluctantly attends exorcism school at the Vatican. While he’s in Rome, Michael meets an unorthodox priest, Father Lucas (Hopkins), who introduces him to the darker side of his faith, uncovering the devil’s reach even to one of the holiest places on Earth. Check out the pics inside — man, I wish they’d release something “scary”.

A family sinks their teeth into a vicious vengeance quest in the first images from supernatural horror movie Sundown.
The latest from director Rebekah McKendry (Glorious, All the Creatures Were Stirring) has its World Premiere at the 79th Locarno Film Festival on August 13, 2026.
Sundown stars Olwen Fouéré (The Watchers, Texas Chainsaw Massacre), Camille Sullivan (Shelby Oaks, Hunter Hunter), and Summer H. Howell (Mike Flanagan’s “Carrie“) as the central family who’ll encounter what appear to be rather monstrous vampires.
The film follows “three generations of women who reunite in a remote cabin to avenge a loved one’s death, only to discover their captive isn’t who he seems to be and his family is closing in, waiting for sundown.“
Rebekah McKendry directs from a script by Glorious collaborators Joshua Hull and David Ian McKendry.
Daniel Bernhardt (Deathstalker, John Wick), David Alpay (“From”), Kyle Mac (Carrie 2013), Elisa Paszt, Junko Bailey (The Grudge 2019), Megan Best (Time Cut), and David Ian McKendry round out the cast.
The horror film features special effects makeup from Patrick Baxter (“Alien: Earth”, Ghostbusters: Afterlife), and other effects from Creature Cabin and Steven Kostanski’s Action Pants FX.
Producers include Pasha Patriki (Deathstalker), Michael Paszt, Andrew Thomas Hunt, & James Fler of Raven Banner (V/H/S/94, Deathgasm 2: Goremageddon) and Juliette Hagopian (Hunter Hunter). Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash executive produces via his BerserkerGang label alongside Michael Vasicek, Michael Da Silva, and Rodrigo Gudiño.
“Sundown is great,” said Slash. “It is a super tense family vs monster tale that is as claustrophobic as it is terrifying.”
