Updated: First Ever Clip from ‘Paranormal Activity 3’ Arrives on VHS!
*Updated with digital HD version inside too!
The low budget indie that started it all becomes a trilogy on October 21 when Paramount Pictures’ Paranormal Activity 3 arrives in theaters everywhere.
The studio is getting crazy creative as Bloody Disgusting scored the first ever clip from the film — only it arrived on a VHS cassette with a player (see photo). After going through boxes upon boxes for the correct cables, we finally got image up on the screen. Inside you’ll find the supernatural footage from September 2 of 1988!
Franchise creator and producer Oren Peli returns with Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman directing from a screenplay by Christopher B. Landon (Disturbia). Details are slim to none, as usual. But you can visit the film’s official website for more supernatural goodies soon.
A gnarly infection threatens to claw its way out of a moving camper in the first trailer for Shudder’s claustrophobic Hellcat.
The feature debut of writer/editor/director Brock Bodell, who previously edited the Fantasia title Ultrasound, makes its debut on Shudder on August 14.
In Hellcat, “Lena wakes up in a moving camper trailer with a horrifying wound. She’s warned by the driver that they have one hour to get to a doctor, or she’ll succumb to an unimaginably awful fate. As the pain sets in and reality begins to fray, who should really be afraid?”
Dakota Gorman (Natural Disasters) leads the cast that also includes Todd Terry (“Breaking Bad”), Liz Atwater (The Other People), Jordan Mullins (The Bikeriders), and James Austin Johnson (“Saturday Night Live”) in a voice role. Bodell also produces alongside Andrew Duensing and Nate Eggert.
Hellcat made its world premiere last summer at Fantasia. I wrote in my review, “Hellcat is a bit of a Trojan horror that defies easy classification, by design. Bodell’s sneaky debut feature is occasionally too sparse in its worldbuilding in its bid to preserve the mystery, but not enough to detract from the thrilling road thriller that transforms into a completely left-field type of horror we don’t get nearly enough of. The stripped-down tribute to a classic horror staple catches you off guard in more ways than one, marking Bodell as one to watch.”
In other words, there’s a lot more than meets the eye to Hellcat‘s simple infection setup, delivering plenty of surprises along its bumpy road of horrors.
Check out the trailer and poster below and add Hellcat to your watchlists asap.
