Spierig Brothers Talk ‘Daybreakers’ Theatrical Release!

Published

on

The other day a new interview was posted with Vince Colosimo, one of the stars of Lionsgate’s vampire pic Daybreakers. Within the news post, it was reported that the film was pushed back until 2009, while questioning whether or not the film will hit theaters (considering the bulk of LGF horror is going straight-to-disc). Directors Peter and Michael Spierig got in touch with B-D to update the status of the film, which you can read inside.
We wanted to update you on the status of DAYBREAKERS,” the Spierig brothers write into B-D. “Yes it’s true that the film has been delayed until 2009, this is simply because the ’08 slate is so full, and yes it will be a theatrical release.

“It’s been a long and tiring post production process, but it has been completely worth it. We are incredibly proud of the film and feel like we have made something really different for the genre. The information that has been released so far is just a snippet of what the film is all about. Lionsgate have been incredibly supportive of us and our intentions for the picture. To put it simply, the studio loves the movie and wants to see it released correctly, so it’s about finding the right date. We can’t wait for you guys to see it, we know the delay is frustrating, but we can assure you the reasons have nothing to do with the film being in trouble, in fact quite the opposite, it’s about giving DAYBREAKERS every opportunity to be successful.

In the film, it is 2016, and it has been 10 years since the plague transformed ordinary people into Vampires dependent on human blood for survival. As the human race nears extinction and the Vampire population grows desperate for blood, a group of rebel Vampires battle military forces to save the last vestiges of humanity.

Filming has been underway for the last several weeks on Damien Leone’s Terrifier 3, the next installment in one of the most popular new horror franchises of the modern era.

Coming to theaters later this year from Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting, Terrifier 3 aims to raise the bar even further on the gruesome exploits of Art the Clown, and Leone has taken a little break from filming this morning to tease an insane sequence the team just got on camera.

Damien Leone tweets from the set of Terrifier 3, “Can honestly say we just filmed one of the most insanely horrific scenes of the Terrifier franchise and you’ll never believe who couldn’t handle it on set 😬😂 🤮 the bts is hilarious. Can’t wait for you all to see!”

Considering 2022’s Terrifier 2 had people throwing up and fainting in theaters, well, it’s safe to say that nobody is prepared for the uncut brutality of this year’s sequel. Stay tuned for more.

Art the Clown is slashing his way through Christmas in the upcoming third installment, with David Howard Thornton back as Art and Lauren LaVera returning as adversary Sienna.

In Terrifier 3, “Art the Clown unleashes chaos on the unsuspecting residents of Miles County as they peacefully drift off to sleep on Christmas Eve.”

Terrifier 3 will release in theaters nationwide on October 25, 2024, with Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting handling North American distribution, sold by The Coven, who also reps international rights on the film. Watch the first look teaser here.
