“Scream Queens” Teaser Blows Up In Your Face
The first teaser for Ryan Murphy’s Fox horror-comedy anthology series “Scream Queens” is here.
Murphy released the sneak peek on Friday the 13th, making the announcement on Twitter, Variety reported.
The video features upbeat pop music and a young, blonde, college-aged looking woman blowing pink bubble gum, only to have the bubble popped by a bloody knife.
“Scream Queens” centers around a college campus rocked by a series of murders. Lea Michele, Joe Manganiello, Abigail Breslin, Keke Palmer and Skyler Samuels are series regulars. Pop singers Nick Jonas and Ariana Grande will guest star in recurring roles.
Fox has ordered 15 one-hour episodes of “Scream Queens,” which is set to begin production this spring and slated to premiere in the fall.
Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
