Extreme haunts aren’t for the faint of heart. Over the years, these gonzo attractions have developed a reputation for roughing up their brave visitors and subjecting them to disgusting and depraved acts. From eating cockroaches to being nailed shut in a coffin, guests are practically tortured before they can exit. Yet despite their notorious practices, an extreme haunt obviously isn’t going to kill anyone, no matter how real or dangerous everything might seem, or how far they go with a scenario. That’s of course where horror movies take over; they defy reality and fulfill the audience’s expectations. And like those that came before it, Haunt wants to make sure its patrons have a hell of a story to tell — so long as they can make it out alive.

"Time passes and suddenly you realize, 'this is it.'" Vertical Entertainment has revealed an official trailer for an indie film titled The Road to Galena, which will be out to watch starting this July. The film is another of these "what if you had everything, but you still felt something was missing?" kind of existential dramas. Power lawyer Cole Baird has all the trappings of success, but behind the façade, he’s crippled by a career he never wanted and a dream left behind. He now has a choice to make: continue a life of emptiness or follow the path to happiness back to his small, rural hometown. "A touching story of one man's quiet desperation giving way to fulfillment; a story that motivates us to travel our own roads toward a more meaningful life." The film stars Ben Winchell as Cole, Will Brittain, Jay O. Sanders, Jill Hennessy,...

Losing a child is a nightmare for any parent that only festers further with the passage of time. In Let Him Go, Kevin Costner and Diane Lane portray George and Margaret Blackledge. They’re a Montana-based couple living on a beautiful stretch of farmland.
Costner’s George is a retired sheriff whose antenna for nefarious folks doing despicable things is impeccable.
Sadly, both George and Margaret experience that family tragedy that no parent ever recovers from when their grown son, James Blackledge (Ryan Bruce), falls off his horse and perishes. That leaves his widow, Lorna (Kayli Carter from Mrs. America), to raise their son without his father.
After the film’s fateful beginnings, the ‘50s-set sizzler leaps ahead a few years. George and Margaret are providing a home for their daughter-in-law and their grandson Jimmy (played by both Otto Hornung and Bram Hornung).

The latest film to bear the moniker “starring Kevin Costner” above its title is the new dramatic thriller Let Him Go. While the film defies a specific categorization in any single genre, it miraculously escapes the fate of trying to be too many things at one time and is simply a splendidly told tale featuring a plethora of remarkably talented actors.
When we first meet the Blackledges, they are introduced as the practical paragon of the idealized American Dream. They are a close family living idyllically on the family’s sprawling Montana ranch. There is the patriarch George (Kevin Costner), a now retired local sheriff; Margaret (Diane Lane), an apparently devoted, loving wife; and their son, James (Ryan Bruce) and his family, wife Lorna (Kayli Carter) and son Jimmy. But, all good things must inevitably come to an end, and their world is shattered when James is thrown from his horse and killed.

Let Him Go is a Western set in early ’60s Montana, starring Kevin Costner and Diane Lane in a heroic fight, not to save a town as in a classic Western, but to rescue their grandchild. When their son James (Ryan Bruce) dies suddenly, he leaves a hole in the hearts of his parents George (Costner) and Margaret (Lane) Blackledge, as well as a young widow Lorna (Kayli Carter) and infant child named Jimmy. When their daughter-in-law remarries, things change, but then her abusive new husband, Donnie Weboy (Will Brittain), unexpectedly relocates his wife and stepson to join his family in his home state. There was no warning and the young couple left no address yet...

Diane Lane and Kevin Costner. A gothic, Dakotan rescue mission. A bit of loss, and a bit of crass, mean mugging from a helmut-haired Lesley Manville. Add a dash of violence, of course — it’s a pretty good recipe. And writer/director Thomas Bezucha’s Let Him Go, an adaptation of novelist Larry Watson’s 2013 neo-Western, get the flavors right, at least. That marquee-name duo play Margaret and George Blackledge, a Montana couple whose adult son dies in a tragic accident. Their daughter-in-law Lorna (Kayli Carter) later gets stolen away,...

If Zack Snyder’s superhero movies got one thing right — and that’s a big “if” — it’s that Kevin Costner and Diane Lane are the Platonic ideal of white, decent, midwestern parents. Bright actors on their own, these two stars transform into some kind of denim supernova whenever they’re hired to share the same galaxy; the patriotic energy of their combined screen presence is powerful enough to fuel a Ford commercial and make you want to call your parents “ma” and “pa” for a few weird days. But while Snyder recognized that Costner and Lane spark an old-fashioned vision of American values more potent than even Superman could express alone, the franchise-oriented “Man of Steel” couldn’t afford to consider that such a vision can only exist in hindsight.

“Let Him Go,” starring Diane Lane and Kevin Costner as an aging rancher couple out to rescue their grandson from a clan of varmint in-laws, is set in Big Sky Country about 50 years ago, and it’s like a family-values, homespun-nostalgia version of “The Searchers” crossed with “Midsommar” on the range. If that sounds like an oddball of a movie, but one that’s going to keep you watching, it is. And Lane and Costner give it their all in a casual way that only pros this seasoned and gifted can. They turn the movie into an unlikely thing: a touchingly bone-weary romance steeped in vengeance.
At first, we think we’re watching a sensitive weeper-of-the-week about grief, loss, and time’s healing passage. Lane and Costner play Margaret and George Blackledge. He’s a retired lawman, with a badge and pistol in his drawer that look like they came...

Writer-director Thomas Bezucha clearly flourishes under a big sky: Returning to Montana for “Let Him Go,” he fulfills the promise of his acclaimed debut feature, 2000’s “Big Eden,” also shot in the Treasure State. But where his earlier film was a lovely romantic comedy about the power of community, this new film (based on the novel by Larry Watson) is a nail-biting thriller about a couple rescuing their young grandson from a terrible new family.
Between its taut script and some indelible performances, “Let Him Go” succeeds both as a low-key character study and as a breathlessly intense thriller about the clash between good (but not perfect) people and bad people, none of whom are to be trifled with.
Bezucha opens with some idyllic images right out of Norman Rockwell, and only subtly does an undercurrent of Edward Hopper become visible. Retired sheriff George Blackledge (Kevin Costner) and his wife...

Hannah Fidell’s 2013 feature debut, A Teacher, is a miniature portrait, practically a locket picture. Visually cramped, clammily atmospheric and undeniably underwritten, the 75-minute film — about a female high-school teacher (Lindsay Burdge) in a sexual relationship with one of her students (Will Brittain) — isn’t anyone’s idea of a slam-dunk adaptation source, grossing just over $8,000 during its theatrical run. Indeed, it’s taken Fidell six years, since a TV version was announced for HBO in 2014, for her miniseries to make it to the screen, now for FX on Hulu. This time, Fidell’s canvas is far larger.

Although it might seem like Field of Dreams and Unfaithful came out just yesterday, Kevin Costner and Diane Lane have now entered the “concerned grandparents” phase of their careers. In the new drama Let Him Go, the Man of Steel pair reteam, playing George and Margaret, a couple who are concerned for the well being of their grandson after their son is tragically murdered. When a mysterious, off-the-grid family led by Lesley Manville’s chain-smoking matriarch kidnaps their grandson, George and Margaret must stop at nothing to rescue him and bring him home.
Set for a November 6 theatrical release from Focus Features, the trailer depicts the duo shooting guns as they are dropped in the middle of intense action scenes, perhaps an unexpected, welcome departure for the two veteran actors. The film is directed by The Family Stone’s Thomas Bezucha and co-stars Jeffrey Donovan, Kayli Carter, Booboo Stewart, and Will Brittain.

Thomas Bezucha, whose 2000 feature “Big Eden” was a queer festival favorite, is back with his first film as writer-director in nearly a decade. While his last effort, “Monte Carlo,” was a lighthearted family comedy, his next feature, “Let Him Go” is a much darker effort. The film’s first trailer plays like a Western riff on the “Taken” franchise. “Let Him Go” is based on the 2013 novel of the same name by Larry Watson.
“Let Him Go” stars Kevin Costner as a retired sheriff and Diane Lane as his wife. Following the loss of their son, the couple leave their Montana ranch to rescue their grandson, who has fallen into the clutches of a dangerous off-the-grid family headed by a matriarch named Blanche Weboy (played by “Phantom Thread” Oscar nominee Lesley Manville). The couple are forced to fight for their family when they discover the Weboys have no intention of letting the child go.

The made-for-tv movie was a programming staple for the broadcast networks in the 1970s and 1980s. While it fell out of favor in the 1990s and was even dropped as an Emmy Awards category for three years beginning in 2011, it has been on an upswing as of late. This year, 28 telefilms are in contention for the five nominations that will be revealed on July 28; last year only 21 TV movies were submitted.
All 22,000 plus voting members of the TV academy have until July 13 to cast their 2020 Emmy Awards nominations ballots for their favorite TV movies. In the past, voters were limited in the number of telefilms that they could put forth. In 2017 that cap (which was usually 10 per category) was lifted. And, as opposed to the Oscars, voters for the Emmys do not rank their choices and nominees are determined by a simple tally.

Annette Bening, Bill Nighy and Josh O’ Connor are ready to deal with some serious family issues in the drama Hope Gap. Screen Media Ventures and Roadside Attractions released the film today on digital platforms after having to pivot from their originally planned March 5 theatrical release due to the pandemic –because the show must go on.
Directed by Oscar-nominated screenwriter William Nicholson and based on his Tony Award-nominated play, The Retreat From Moscow, Hope Gap made its world premiere at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival before hitting the festival circuit.
Hope Gap follows the lives of Grace (Bening) and Edward (Nighy), who have been married for 29 years, as they navigate through stages of shock, disbelief and anger, to a place of hope. They live in a small seaside town near a cove under the cliffs called Hope Gap — hence the title of the film. When their son Jamie (O’Connor...

Writer-director Lara Jean Gallagher’s “Clementine” resides willfully in the spaces between loss and desire, anger and reckoning, trust and suspicion, often to unnerving effect. A viewer would be right to wonder, is this visually canny story of a young woman who heads to her ex-lover’s empty lake house a coming-of-age meditation or a psychosexual thriller? Breakup drama or simmering horror flick outing?
Gallagher rebuffs easy answers in “Clementine,” which had its premiere at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival and opens May 8 on virtual screens thanks to the nimble maneuvering of distributor Oscilloscope Pictures.
Karen (Otmara Marrero) leaves Los Angeles and heads into the woods — yes, figuratively, too — of Oregon after a thwarted attempt to get their dog from her lover’s home. We don’t see this ex, who goes by D, so much as hear her. She’s the voice at the start of the film, telling Karen...

"Are you gonna break my heart?" "I've never broken one single heart." Oscilloscope Labs has unveiled an official trailer for an indie film titled Clementine, marking the feature directorial debut of filmmaker Lara Jean Gallagher, who grew up in rural Pennsylvania. This premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival last year, and will debut as a "virtual cinema" release this month. In this "moody and mysterious narrative feature," a scenic lake house becomes a sanctuary for two young women. Karen is just out of a long-term relationship and sneaks into her ex's summer home. There she meets the precocious Lana, whose "bold charisma" is a welcome distraction. Soon something sparks between them. "Equal parts psychological thriller and sexual coming-of-age story, Clementine is a tense rumination on who to love and how to let go." Starring a small cast with Otmara Marrero, Sydney Sweeney, Will Brittain, & Sonya Walger. Looks quite seductive. Here's...

We’re introduced to Karen (Otmara Marrero) in bed as her older girlfriend D. (Sonya Walger) wakes her. While the former wants to sleep in, the latter seeks inspiration for a new canvas and wants her prized possession to be a willing participant towards that need. This is why D. tells her lover that her youth scares her by ruminating aloud about how Karen will inevitably break her heart. Rather than say it out of belief, however, she speaks those words to sink her claws in deeper. She’s deflecting from the fact that she’ll eventually break Karen’s instead, letting her feel secure by projecting an image of power that doesn’t exist. It’s therefore no surprise to learn that when Karen mourns their sudden break-up, D. has already moved on.

Easter Cove is the sort of quaint port town that dots long stretches of the Northeastern seaboard’s coast, home to a community of fishermen and widows and maybe a drunken fuck-up or three. It’s the sort of small town that can seem cozy or claustrophobic; for Mary Beth Connolly (Homeland‘s Morgan Saylor), it’s definitely the latter. She’s hoping to go to “UMaine” next year for college, something she’s already postponed so she and her sister, Priscilla (Sophie Lowe), could take care of their dying...

The dark underbelly of a small town has provided cinematic fodder for generations. It’s just a lucrative source of storytelling. After a debut last year at the Tribeca Film Festival, another effort joins the fray, starting today, in Blow the Man Down, a surprisingly fun drama that slowly turns the screws. The material may sound serious and even grim, but it actually is handled with such a steady tone that it almost resembles something that the Coen Brothers would do, as opposed to a bleak expose. Amazon Studios has this one and will put it out on their service, so expect it to be one of the higher profile VOD options this weekend. The movie is a mix of drama and mystery, with actually a little bit of comedy thrown in for good measure. It’s set in the small Maine town of Easter Cove, a remote coastal fishing village.

"A lot of people underestimate women... That's why they get away with a lot." Amazon Prime has released an official trailer for a dark crime comedy titled Blow the Man Down, which originally premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival last year. It also went on to play at the Toronto, Palm Springs, and Santa Barbara Film Festivals, as well as AFI Fest. While grieving for the loss of their mother, the Connolly Sisters suddenly find they have a crime to cover up after unintentionally killing a drunken fisherman, leading them deep into the underbelly of their salty Maine fishing village. The film stars Morgan Saylor and Sophie Lowe as Mary Beth and Priscilla Connolly, with Margo Martindale, June Squibb, Annette O'Toole, Will Brittain, Gayle Rankin, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. Looks like a Coen Brothers-esque crime caper from Maine. Here's the first trailer for Bridget Savage Cole & Danielle Krudy's Blown the Man Down,...

Exclusive: Oscilloscope has acquired U.S. rights to writer-director Lara Jean Gallagher’s debut feature Clementine, a drama that premiered at Tribeca. The distributor will release theatrically in 2020.
Reeling from a one-sided breakup, anguished Karen (Otmara Marrero) flees Los Angeles for her ex’s idyllic lake house in the Pacific Northwest. There, she becomes entangled with a mysterious, alluring younger woman (Sydney Sweeney), whom she cannot seem to resist. Equal parts psychological thriller and sexual coming-of-age story, Clementine is a tense rumination on who to love and how to let go. Will Brittain and Sonya Walger round out the cast.

“Haunt,” an early Halloween arrival that traps its collegiate protagonists inside an all-too-fatal holiday attraction, delivers a satisfying quantity of creeps and frights that more than compensate for the occasional lull. A step up from found-footage horror pic “Nightlight,” Scott Beck and Bryan Woods’ last directorial collaboration, this latest isn’t a beacon of conceptual originality, either. But that doesn’t matter much, as the writer-directors (co-scenarists of “A Quiet Place”) have a firm hold on atmosphere and demonstrate diverse enough suspense tactics to avoid a sense of slasher formula — while nonetheless hewing fairly close to that template.
With producer Eli Roth’s name as an additional lure, this should do well among genre fans in a limited 10-city theatrical release Sept. 13, simultaneous with On Demand and digital launch.
Though shot in Kentucky, “Haunt” is set in Carbondale, Ill., an improbably named but actual midwest college town. It’s Halloween,...

On Halloween night, a group of college friends travel to a remote country location to enter an extreme haunted house attraction. Extreme because it promises to feed on all their darkest fears. But the night turns deadly as they come to the horrifying realization that some nightmares are real and the mischief-makers behind the enterprise are something else altogether.
Films about Halloween-set haunted house attractions are nothing new, so what can a film, by the writers of the well-received, critcally-acclaimed, audience-pleasing A Quiet Place, bring to the genre? If they hype is to be believed, a lot. However in truth it turns out nothing much really. And nothing that wasn’t done a Lot better by The Houses October Built (aka The Houses of Halloween).

We're used to seeing actress Katie Stevens snapping out one-liners while wearing designer clothes and sky-high heels on The Bold Type, which makes her blood-drenched appearance in the trailer for Haunt so shocking.
The actress stars as Harper, who, along with a group of friends, goes to an "extreme" haunted house on Halloween that claims to tap into your greatest fears in order to give you the scare of your life. However, as they make their way through each twist and turn that the spooky attraction has to offer, they begin to realize that some of the monsters lurking in the shadows might very well be real. So, in other words: no bueno.
Haunt comes from A Quiet Place writing duo Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, who are in the director's chairs this time around. Horror master Eli Roth is also on board as a producer, while Will Brittain and Lauryn Alisa McClain costar.

The writers of A Quiet Place, Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, have made a new horror film that they wrote and directed called Haunt.
The story is set on Halloween night, and it follows a group of friends who “encounter an ‘extreme’ haunted house that promises to feed on their darkest fears. The night turns deadly as they come to the horrifying realization that some monsters are real.”
The movie was also produced by Eli Roth, and it doesn’t look like anything that hasn’t been done before. We’ve seen this kind of story recycled several times over the years. But, who knows, maybe this film will offer up a new twist that we don’t see coming.

It's always a good time for a solid horror movie but with Halloween around the corner, it's no surprise that we're seeing more and more horror-themed movies coming out. Case in point: Haunt.

It starts off fairly tame ("Is this supposed to be scary?" one of them asks) but their night of light scares turns deadly when the group realizes that the monsters are real.

"Is this supposed to be scary?" Momentum Pictures has unveiled the first official trailer for an indie horror titled Haunt, a new haunted house horror co-directed by Scott Beck & Bryan Woods. This insanely freaky looking film is about a group of friends who encounter an "extreme" haunted house that promises to feed on their darkest fears. The night turns deadly as they come to the horrifying realization that some nightmares are real. Ohh yeah. They threw in every possible scary-as-f*!k idea into this and it looks excruciatingly horrifying. Katie Stevens stars, with Will Brittain, Lauryn Alisa McClain, Andrew Caldwell, Shazi Raja, Schuyler Helford, Phillip Johnson Richardson, Chaney Morrow.

Haunt is the latest film from writers Scott Beck and Bryan Woods (A Quiet Place). Produced by Eli Roth (The Green Inferno), Haunt takes place in a side road amusement park. Here, real killers torment their victims, behind closed doors. This horror title stars: Will Brittain (Kong: Skull Island), Katie Stevens (Polaroid), Andrew Caldwell ("iZombie"), Lauryn Alisa McClain and many others. Already slated to show this September, Haunt was shot in Fort Thomas, Kentucky. And, based on the trailer, this horror thriller will host lots of scares. The synopsis does not reveal much. Several friends track down an extreme haunted house. The ride promises to feed on their darkest fears. And, this is one ride where nightmares become real. The use of haunted house rides has been utilized a lot in the horror genre. From Tyler Christensen's House of Purgatory (2016) to the underground Amusement (2008), killers and murderers are always...
