Fantastic Fest ’11: Stills For ‘Two Eyes Staring’
Netherlands thriller Two Eyes Staring will be playing this year’s Fantastic Fest and from everything I’m hearing, director Elbert van Strien did a bang up job.
Per Fantastic Fest “Two Eyes Staring steadily creates a creepy, unsettling atmosphere as it builds towards a tense climax. Young actress Isabelle Stokkel gives a great performance in the difficult role of Lisa. The film is well paced and beautifully shot, and handles the horror elements quite masterfully. A fantastic slow-build horror, Two Eyes Staring delivers plenty of chills and unexpected thrills. And we’re not the only ones who think so. Charlize Theron has already personally optioned the film for an English language remake.”

Danny Boyle and Alex Garland are reteaming for the long-awaited 28 Years Later horror sequel trilogy, and the first film in that new trilogy now has a release date.
28 Years Later arrives in theaters on June 20, 2025 from Sony.
Jack O’Connell (Amy Winehouse: Back To Black) has joined the previously announced Jodie Comer (Alone in the Dark, “Killing Eve”), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kraven the Hunter), and Ralph Fiennes (The Menu) in the upcoming 28 Years Later.
Alex Garland will write the first film and Boyle will return to direct. Nia DaCosta (Candyman, The Marvels) will direct the second installment in the trilogy from Sony Pictures.
Cillian Murphy (Oppenheimer) is on board as executive producer.
The original movie in 2002 starred Cillian Murphy and was written by Alex Garland and directed by Danny Boyle. In the smash hit horror film, “Four weeks after a mysterious, incurable virus spreads throughout the UK, a handful of survivors try to find sanctuary.”
A sequel, 28 Weeks Later, arrived in 2007. Juan Carlos Fresnadillo took over as director. In the sequel, which starred Jeremy Renner, “Six months after the rage virus was inflicted on the population of Great Britain, the US Army helps to secure a small area of London for the survivors to repopulate and start again. But not everything goes according to plan.”
Talks of a third installment in the franchise have been coming and going for the last several years now – at one point, it was going to be titled 28 Months Later – but it looks like this one is finally getting off the ground here in 2024. Stay tuned for more updates soon!
