‘Boarding School’ Trailer Burns it All Down
Momentum Pictures will release Maven Pictures’ horror Boarding School from director Boaz Yakin in theaters, on VOD and digital platforms August 31, 2018, Bloody Disgusting learned, while also landing the film’s official trailer.
Boarding School tells the story of an ominous boarding school where children deemed “undesirable” are committed.
“Twelve-year-old Jacob Felson (Luke Prael) is sent away by his stepfather to the mysterious school run by a peculiar couple, Dr. Sherman (Will Patton) and his dominating wife (Tammy Blanchard). When one of the students is found dead, Jacob begins to suspect something much more sinister is going on than education.” The movie also stars Samantha Mathis and Sterling Jerins.
Written and directed by Yakin (Remember the Titans, Safe), the pic is produced by Maven Pictures’ Trudie Styler (Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, Still Alice, American Honey) and Celine Rattray (The Kids Are All Right, Still Alice, American Honey) as well as Scott Lochmus (The Joneses, London Town), and Jason Orans (Goodbye Solo, Night Catches Us).
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
