‘Leprechaun Returns’ for Murderous Mischief with New Poster and Release Date

Published

on

Leprechaun Returns

With a new release from Lionsgate (courtesy of the fine folks at Bloody Disgusting), we’ve got a first official poster and release date for the newest entry in the Leprechaun franchise, appropriately titled Leprechaun Returns.

Directed by Steven Kostanski (best known for the phenomenally visceral The Void) and written by Suzanne Keilly (writer of the fan favorite “Ashy Slashy” episode of Ash vs Evil Dead), the film will revive the deadly, wisecracking Leprechaun in all his gory glory.

“When the sorority sisters of the Alpha Upsilon house decide to go green and use an old well as their water source, they unwittingly awaken a pint-sized, green-clad monster. The Leprechaun wants a pot of gold buried near the sorority house, but first, he must recover his powers with a killing spree—and only the girls of AU can stop him.“

Check out the new poster below, which beautifully ties in to the ending of the first film back in 1993. And because we’re tired of posters with digitally-throttled photography, let’s also just take a moment to appreciate the beautiful artwork on this one, right?

Leprechaun Returns will pick up 25 years after the 1993 original, acting as a direct sequel to the first entry in the franchise. This, in truth, could mean that the new film will retcon all of the prior sequelsIt’s entirely possible that this Leprechaun has not been to Vegas, the hood, or space!

But more importantly, because Leprechaun Returns will act as a direct sequel to the first film, the Leprechaun won’t be the only character to return this time around. Ozzie – the affable goofball – will be back with Mark Holton reprising his role. And for this new chapter, the Leprechaun – a character originated by the legendary Warwick Davis – will be played by Linden Porco (Channel Zero).

Leprechaun Returns also stars Taylor Spreitler (Kevin Can Wait), Pepi Sonuga (Ash vs Evil Dead), and Sai Bennett (Lake Placid: Legacy). You can find it on Digital and On Demand as of December 11, 2018.

Check out the teaser trailer below – which was appropriately released on St Patrick’s Day. And while we’re on the topic, why not give yourself a little refresher on Lep’s wily antics with our list of the best (and most ridiculous) kills from the Leprechaun franchise. Go on, treat yourself.

Published

on

Eli Roth (Cabin Fever) and Crypt TV are knocking it out of the park with their new VR show, The Faceless Lady. For those unaware, this is the first fully scripted VR horror show on the market.

Even for masters of horror like Eli Roth and Crypt TV, this is a monumental undertaking. However, if I trust anyone to change the way that we experience horror, it would be these two legends.

The Faceless Lady

Ripped from the pages of Irish folklore, The Faceless Lady tells the story of a tragic spirit cursed to wander the halls of her castle for all of eternity. However, when three young couples are invited to the castle for a series of games, their fates may soon change.

So far, the story has provided horror fans with a gripping game of life or death that doesn’t look as if it will slow down in episode five. Luckily, we have an exclusive clip that may be able to satiate your appetites until the new premiere.

Airing on 4/25 at 5pmPT/8pmET, episode five follows our final three contestants in this wicked game. As the stakes are raised ever higher, will Ella be able to fully awaken her connection with Lady Margaret?

Published

on

A new trailer for the movie formerly known as Pussy Island just dropped and it has us intrigued. Now with the more restrained title, Blink Twice, this  Zoë Kravitz-directed black comedy is set to land in theaters on August 23.

The film is packed with stars including Channing Tatum, Naomi Ackie, Alia Shawkat, Simon Rex, Adria Arjona, Haley Joel Osment, Christian Slater, Kyle MacLachlan, and Geena Davis.

The trailer feels like a Benoit Blanc mystery; people are invited to a secluded location and disappear one by one, leaving one guest to figure out what is going on.

In the film, a billionaire named Slater King (Channing Tatum) invites a waitress named Frida (Naomi Ackie) to his private island, “It’s paradise. Wild nights blend into sun-soaked days and everyone’s having a great time. No one wants this trip to end, but as strange things start to happen, Frida begins to question her reality. There is something wrong with this place. She’ll have to uncover the truth if she wants to make it out of this party alive.”
