‘All About Evil’ Horror Comedy Begins Production, First Stills!
Production has kicked into high-horror gear as Joshua Grannell has been shooting his first feature film All About Evil this month. Grannell has written the EVIL script and is directing the dark comedy, set in San Francisco. You can read all about the start of production, check out the first ever stills and the massive genre cast by reading below.ALL ABOUT EVIL centers around a mousy librarian, who has inherited her father’s beloved but failing old movie house. In order to save the family business she discovers her inner serial killer — and a legion of rabid gore fans — when she starts turning out a series of grisly shorts. What her fans don’t realize yet is that the murders in the movies are all too real.
Grannell is in his 12th year of producing and hosting MIDNIGHT MASS, a midnight movie film series/show/phenomenon sponsored by Landmark Theatres. Next to the ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, it’s the country’s biggest and longest running midnight movie series. Joshua Grannell is best known by his drag queen alter-ego PEACHES CHRIST, a cult cinema icon best known in the world of underground cinema.
A motley crew of talent has been assembled to make ALL ABOUT EVIL a cult classic like no other, including stars Natasha Lyonne (SLUMS OF BEVERLY HILLS, BUT I’M A CHEERLEADER, DIE MOMMIE DIE) and Thomas Dekker (TV’s HEROES, TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES), Cassandra “Elvira Mistress of the Dark” Peterson, Mink Stole (HAIRSPRAY, CRY BABY, SERIAL MOM), Noah Segan (BRICK, DEADGIRL), Jack Donner (STAR TREK, BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER), Julie-Caitlin Brown (BABYLON 5, STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION) and PEACHES CHRIST .
Also on board for ALL ABOUT EVIL are producer Darren Stein (writer / director of JAWBREAKER), director of photography Tom Richmond (PALINDROMES, NICK AND NORAH’S INFINITE PLAYLIST, CHOPPING MALL, HOUSE OF 1,000 CORPSES), and costume designer Frank Helmer (BUT I’M A CHEERLEADER, DEBS, EPIC MOVIE). On the San Francisco front are producers Brian Benson (FULL GROWN MEN, HAIKU TUNNEL), and Debbie Brubaker (LA MISSION, DARWIN AWARDS, DOPAMINE).
Following in the footsteps of last year’s independent films MILK and LA MISSION, ALL ABOUT EVIL will be filmed entirely on location in the San Francisco Bay Area where fog and blood make for the perfect EVIL back-drop.

Ryan Gosling (Project Hail Mary) has made no secret of the fact that he’d love to play Ghost Rider in a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie, and it’s now officially happening.
Announced by Marvel out of San Diego Comic-Con tonight, Ryan Gosling will play the iconic Marvel character in a Ghost Rider movie being directed by Shawn Levy!
Expect Ryan Gosling to play Ghost Rider on the big screen in 2028.
Johnny Blaze is of course the most iconic and well-known Ghost Rider, selling his soul to Satan and becoming a supernatural badass. Nicolas Cage brought Blaze to life on screen in both 2007’s Ghost Rider and 2011’s Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, while Gabriel Luna more recently played the Robbie Reyes version of Ghost Rider in the series “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”
Luna was set to star in his own Ghost Rider spinoff series in the wake of that small screen appearance, but that Hulu project ended up being squashed before it ever had a chance.
Fans have been waiting for Ghost Rider to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe for many years now, with Ryan Gosling making it clear that he’d love to bring the character back to life.
That Hollywood dream is coming true. Stay tuned for more as we learn it.
