[BD Review] ’24 Exposures’ Is A Successfully Bloody Twist On Cinemax Noir
IFC Films just released Joe Swanberg’s 24 Exposures today and it’s an interesting detour into a sex and blood filled world for the filmmaker. If you’ve ever enjoyed star Adam Wingard’s tumblr, this is the movie for you. If you’re not near one of the select theaters showing the film, you’re surely near some kind of VOD device where you can also find it.
From my review, “It also happens to be lurid, gory and at times pretty damn funny (in the driest manner possible). Adam Wingard (the director of You’re Next, The Guest and several installments of the V/H/S films) and Simon Barrett (writer of said films and installments) are paired up as a Walter Hill-esque odd couple in a way that serves as a great access point to the film for anyone familiar with their work. ”
Check out the full review at either of the above links.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
