Blair Witch

The world of interactive horror experiences keep on getting better and better. Even during last year, when folks were using pure ingenuity to come up with ways to socially distance and keep spooky. A lot of drive through and drive in, horror experiences popped up to save the day. Well, that train of interactive spooks keeps on rolling with the terrifying Escape Blair Witch experience.

It turns out that early rumors ended up being true and quite rad! The rumor (at the time) was that Lionsgate was going to install a Blair Witch escape experience similar to the one that Lionsgate created for the Saw’s escape. Well, rumor no more. It turns out that Egan Escape Productions is going to drive everyone mad from frights with the help of the sinister Blair Witch.

Guests will arrive at a recreation of Burkittsville, Maryland in order to investigate missing college students. Once you arrive, you and your group will have to solve clues and gather information in order to proceed. Once you are able to move forward, you must traverse a built from the ground up recreation of the Black Hills Forest. Eventually, you find yourself in the Witch’s house. At this point the goal goes from investigation to escape and get the hell out of there.

The official synopsis for Escape Blair Witch provided goes like this:

Escape Blair Witch is an immersive, multi-room escape experience that brings to life Lionsgate’s iconic blockbuster film franchise, Blair Witch. Players begin their journey at the Burkittsville Ranger’s Station, nestled in the Black Hills Forest, on a hunt for information into the disappearance of a few local college students. Do you believe in the stories about the Blair Witch? Was there an accident in the woods or did something far more sinister take place?

The whole spooky shindig is set to go off in early Summer 2021 in Las Vegas. Since COVID-19 still sucks and is still around being a proper jerk, tickets are limited and precautions are in place. In order to grab your tickets and find all the info that you need, head over to escapeblairwitch.com.

Danny Boyle is revisiting his 28 Days Later universe with three new films. He will direct the first, 28 Years Later, with two more to follow. Deadline is reporting that sources say Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes have been cast for the first entry, a sequel to the original. Details are being kept under wraps so we don’t know how or if the first original sequel 28 Weeks Later fits into the project.

Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Ralph Fiennes

Boyle will direct the first movie but it’s unclear which role he will take on in the subsequent films. What is known is Candyman (2021) director Nia DaCosta is scheduled to direct the second film in this trilogy and that the third will be filmed immediately afterward. Whether DaCosta will direct both is still unclear.

Alex Garland is writing the scripts. Garland is having a successful time at the box office right now. He wrote and directed the current action/thriller Civil War which was just knocked out of the theatrical top spot by Radio Silence’s Abigail.

Watch ‘The Burning’ At The Location Where It Was Filmed

Published

on

Fangoria is reporting that fans of the 1981 slasher The Burning will be able to have a screening of the film at the location where it was filmed. The movie is set at Camp Blackfoot which is actually the Stonehaven Nature Preserve in Ransomville, New York.

This ticketed event will take place on August 3. Guests will be able to take a tour of the grounds as well as enjoy some campfire snacks along with the screening of The Burning.

The Burning

The film came out in the early ’80s when teen slashers were being churned out in magnum force. Thanks to Sean S. Cunningham’s Friday the 13th, filmmakers wanted to get in on the low-budget, high-profit movie market and a casket load of these types of films were produced, some better than others.

The Burning is one of the good ones, mostly because of the special effects from Tom Savini who had just come off of his groundbreaking work on Dawn of the Dead and Friday the 13th. He declined to do the sequel because of its illogical premise and instead signed on to do this movie. Also, a young Jason Alexander who would later go on to play George in Seinfeld is a featured player.

Because of its practical gore, The Burning had to be heavily edited before it received an R-rating. The MPAA was under the thumb of protest groups and political bigwigs to censor violent films at the time because slashers were just so graphic and detailed in their gore.

Tickets are $50, and if you want a special t-shirt, that will cost you another $25, You can get all the information by visiting the On Set Cinema webpage.
