"Makani Young has moved from Hawaii to quiet, small-town Nebraska to live with her grandmother and finish high school, but as the countdown to graduation begins, her classmates are stalked by a killer intent on exposing their darkest secrets to the entire town, terrorizing victims while wearing a life-like mask of their own face. With a mysterious past of her own, Makani and her friends must discover the killer’s identity before they become victims themselves. There’S Someone Inside Your House is based on Stephanie Perkins’ New York Times best-selling novel of the same name and written for the screen by Henry Gayden (Shazam!), directed by Patrick Brice (Creep) and produced by James Wan’s Atomic Monster (The Conjuring) and...

"It took my son, and I've been fighting him ever since." Vertical Ent. has released an official trailer for The Devil Below, a new horror film (formerly titled Shookum Hills) from filmmaker / VFX supervisor Brad Parker (director of the very creepy Chernobyl Diaries previously). A geological expedition to an Appalachian sinkhole becomes a fight for survival against a mysterious force. When a team of researchers try to find out how fires started in underground coal mines that have been ablaze for decades, they encounter something much more frightening hiding within. The film stars Alicia Sanz, Adan Canto, Zach Avery, Chinaza Uche, Jesse Latourette, Jonathan Sadowski, and Will Patton. The best part about this is definitely the grizzled Will Patton. It looks a bit like Tremors meets The Descent, which is kind of a thrilling mash-up. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Brad Parker's The Devil Below, direct from Vertical's YouTube...

James Wan (The Conjuring) and Shawn Levy (Stranger Things) have teamed up to produce a new horror movie for Netflix called There’s Someone Inside Your House and the cast for that film has been set. The tone of the film is also said to be similar to Stranger Things, and it’s described as a "1980s and ’90s slasher movie meets a John Hughes coming-of-age tale like The Breakfast Club."
The film is an adaptation of the book by Stephanie Perkins, and the story “sees the graduating class at Osborne High being targeted by a masked assailant intent on exposing the darkest secret of each victim. Only a group of misfit outsiders can stop the killings — before their own secrets are revealed to the world.”

Ahead of its platform release Friday comes a new trailer for Focus Features’ Boy Erased, the drama written and directed by Joel Edgerton based on Garrard Conley’s memoir about coming out to his Southern Baptist parents who sent him to conversion-therapy camp. Lucas Hedges stars alongside Oscar winners Nicole Kidman and Russell Crowe in the pic, which has been building up steam since its fall-festival debut at Telluride, then Toronto.
Hedges plays Jared Eamons, the son of a Baptist pastor in a small American town, who must overcome the fallout of being outed to his parents, who struggle with reconciling their love for their son with their beliefs. Fearing a loss of family, friends, and community, Jared is pressured into attending a conversion therapy program. While there, Jared comes into conflict with its leader (Edgerton) and begins his journey to finding his own voice and accepting his true self.

"You may have to walk away from everything..." Focus Features has debuted the second official trailer for Boy Erased, an adaptation of the book of the same name by Garrard Conley. The story is about the son of a baptist preacher who is forced to participate in a church-supported gay conversion program - similar to the one also seen in The Miseducation of Cameron Post. Boy Erased is directed by Australian actor-filmmaker Joel Edgerton (also of The Gift previously), who also wrote the script, and stars in the film. The main cast includes Lucas Hedges (from Manchester by the Sea) as Jared, with Nicole Kidman & Russell Crowe as his parents, plus Xavier Dolan, Troye Sivan, Jesse Latourette, Britton Sear, David Ditmore, Matt Burke, and William Ngo. This has been playing at a few film festivals this fall, and it's a damn fine film. Highly recommended, especially as an example of how blasphemous these programs are.

Lucas Hedges already has one Oscar nod under his belt — thanks to his powerful work in “Manchester by the Sea” — but the impressive young actor might be heading for still more awards season glory, thanks to roles in not one, but two hard-hitting dramas arriving in the coming weeks. Hedges isn’t resting on his laurels these days, instead opting to dig into two big dramas focused on real world issues.
In December, Hedges will star alongside Julia Roberts in the drug drama “Ben Is Back,” directed by his own father Peter Hedges, but before that film hits screens, there’s his turn in Joel Egerton’s fact-based gay conversion drama “Boy Erased.”
Based on Garrard Conley’s 2016 memoir of the same name, Hedges stars in the film as the teenage son of an outspoken preacher (played by Russell Crowe) and a loving Arkansas mother (Nicole Kidman). The film follows...

In short order, Joel Edgerton has gone from a solid actor to a multi hyphenate with a lot to say. His directorial debut was a nifty genre effort, but for his sophomore feature, he’s gone way up in ambition. Opening this week, Boy Erased is a prestige drama with Academy Award aspirations. During its fall film festival run, it has gotten some strong acclaim. Sadly, I can’t quite go along with that, as I found it lacking a bit too much to give the thumbs up to. There’s plenty to like, but it also never hits home emotionally like it so clearly desires. In that regard, it’s a letdown. Based on the memoir of the same name by Garrard Conley, this is his slightly fictionalized story. Here, we follow Jared Eamons (Lucas Hedges), the son of prominent Baptist preacher Marshall Eamons (Russell Crowe). In high school,...

Garrard Conley’s best-selling memoir Boy Erased is getting the feature film treatment. From actor-director Joel Edgerton, who last impressed with his thriller The Gift, comes the story of Conley’s harrowing upbringing in a gay conversion therapy, which he is placed in by his pastor father and Southern belle mother.
Lady Bird and Manchester by the Sea star Lucas Hedges will be playing Conley, while Russell Crowe and Nicole Kidman will be assuming the roles of his parents. In addition to being one of this fall’s few films dealing with Lgbt themes, it also has quite the diverse cast, including pop star Troye Sivan, Cherry Jones, and acclaimed director Xavier Dolan, who will be stepping in front of the camera for the first time in a few years.
“I find Lucas just to be a really beautiful blank canvas. There’s a sensitivity to him in his observation in the world.

The drama tells the story of Jared (Hedges), the son of a Baptist pastor in a small American town, who is outed to his parents (Kidman and Crowe) at age 19.
