Original ‘Pin’ Director Returns for Remake
A few months back a bunch of friends and myself discussed how a remake to Sandor Stern’s 1988 horror flick Pin would be crazy awesome, so it comes as no shock that one is currently in development. Bloody Disgusting has exclusively confirmed that Stern will be returning to direct and co-write, alongside Jack Reher (writer of the forthcoming Red Machine and Edge of the Unknown), a redo of the creepy doll movie. What’s different is that the duo will be scripting a movie based on Andrew Neiderman’s novel of the same name. Neiderman is also known for writing the classic “The Devil’s Advocate”. Stern wrote the original The Amityville Horror. Meet Pin, a harmless, mute and lifeless fantasy in little Leon’s mind – a fantasy that initially took form when Leon’s father imparted life lessons to him through the use of anatomical dummy. At first a source of amusement and comfort, Pin demonically evolves into the object of Leon’s mad fixation. Soon, Leon and Pin quietly but thoroughly eliminate anyone who intrudes into their private world.
Pregnancy nightmare Son of Sara aims to be the next generation’s take on the horror classic Rosemary’s Baby, and Bloody Disgusting is exclusively debuting the trailer this afternoon.
Son of Sara will be available in the U.S. and Canada on Digital & VOD July 31.
Watch the official trailer from Saban Films below.
In Son of Sara, “A pregnant woman’s cravings turn sinister as her estranged boyfriend’s return coincides with a terrifying secret about the life growing inside her.”
The film stars Chloe Van Landschoot, Tymika Tafari, Garret Hnatiuk and Jane Moffat.
Canadian filmmaker Houston Bone directed Son of Sara.
Houston Bone said in a statement, “After gagging Toronto at Blood in the Snow this past winter, we are excited to be working with Saban to bring our grisly horror movie, and our new little monster, to audiences across the United States. This film has been a passion project for all of us since we shot it back in October 2023. Real blood, sweat, and tears went into bringing Son of Sara to the screen. We are humbled and thrilled by the response from film festival audiences so far. It is a dream come true to be sharing this film at this scale internationally.”
