Trailer for the first film, which came out in theaters last month:
Really hope this happens. I've always enjoyed Halloween 5.
A young woman reluctantly joins her boyfriend on a summer trip where things quickly go awry.
Release date: August 8, 2019.
A brilliant home-invasion thriller laced with cultural reference points stretching back to the late ’80s, and a smorgasbord of first-rate visceral cinematic scares. Think “Funny Games” collided with Cronenbergian body horror and Hitchockian suspense, and you’re maybe halfway there.
Clearly the work of an ambitious writer/director who can see himself inheriting the mantle of Rod Serling ... it offers twists and ironies and false endings galore — along with more laughs than the comedian-turned-auteur dared to include in his debut film. ... It packs a punch.
Us is something of a frustrating watch, a visual and technical marvel that just doesn’t seem to know what it is. Unlike Get Out, which only swelled in impact as you left the theater, Us is best viewed on a visceral level, not an intellectual one.
Terrifying...The less you know going in — and the less energy you spend thinking about it after the fact — the better the movie works, trading on some uncanny combination of Peele’s imagination and our own to suggest a horror infinitely larger and more insidious than the film is capable of representing
Breathtakingly haunting and in a way, surreal, Us is a must-see that will horrify audiences the world over.
Us is a tremendous accomplishment.
Jordan Peele's Us is one of the most original horror titles in recent years. This movie is destined for greatness.
Similarly, Us mirrors Get Out. It's more scary fare with social commentary. But the copy's never quite the same as the original.
Jordan Peele's Us is a stellar follow-up to Get Out and its going to be a huge hit.
Another bit of horror news is that Eli Roth is about to turn Erica Ferencik‘s 2017 novel The River at Night into a movie. I read the book when it first came out and I can’t remember that much about it other than it riffs a little bit on The Deliverance story, but it’s not as good or scary.
I also liked Hereditary a lot, and as Aster's new film seems to have a 'Wicker Man' type look i am really interested.
Not so much with Roth's new project. The book sounds like Deliverance with women and i just don't rate Roth as a director. The potential Green Inferno had to be a modern exploitation classic was completely killed by Roth's inept direction.
Pet Semaraty is *vicious* and I LOVED it. Super brutal visuals and was thrilled to see Widmyer & Kölsch fully embrace the deeply unsettling themes of mortality from the book. And WOW Jeté Laurence. They really pushed it with this adaptation & it worked for me - big time.
Pet Sematary has the kind of serious balls any good adaptation should have. The themes and encroaching dread of King’s novel are alive and well, but there are enough clever deviations to give diehard fans some welcome surprises. Big ups all around, but Seimetz is a legend.
Pet Sematary delivers a solid sense of dread from start to finish. It earns its well-timed jump scares, and terrific sound design and gnarly effects add extra layers of creepy. I think King fans will dig it. Move over Goose, it’s Church’s turn.
Pet Sematary is very average. Good acting, sound design, and production value. But it’s never scary enough, never tense enough. Once the horror stuff REALLY kicks in, it’s pretty much over. I don’t know what I was expecting, but I wanted more out of this.
Pet Sematary is a fucking BLAST. Holy shit! I’m giddy right now. One of the best King adaptations to date!
Actual reviews will drop tomorrow, 18 days before the film's release on April 5th.
I don’t disagree about Green Inferno either. It wasn’t as harrowing as I thought it was going to be. It was almost laughable.
Starring: Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga.
Release date: June 28, 2019.
A group of teens face their fears in order to save their lives.
Release date: August 9, 2019.

First trailer for Annabelle Comes Home:
Never cared for any of them myself. Growing extremely stale.
Will probably skip it in theatres but I did enjoy both Conjuring films and the second Annabelle film. The first Annabelle and The Nun were both rubbish, though.
I'm interested because it makes more sense.

The It Chapter 2 footage shown at CinemaCon wasn’t a trailer, but rather a scene that gave way to a quick sizzle reel. The scene in question is lifted directly from Stephen King’s book. The adult Bev Marsh (Jessica Chastain) returns to her childhood home in Derry, looking for her father. Instead, she encounters an old woman named Mrs. Kersh now living in the house. Mrs. Kersh sadly informs Bev that her father passed away, and then invites Bev into her house.
Bev obliges. Once inside, she finds the old poem on the postcard Ben sent her in the first film. And then things start to get creepy. “You know what they say about Derry,” says Mrs. Kersh. “No one who dies here never really dies.” She fixes Bev with a scary, blank stare, and sure enough, Pennywise soon rears his ugly head.
From here, the audience was treated to quick flashes from the film: the adult Losers’ Club wandering through empty streets. The younger Losers’ Club riding their bikes. An adult Bev rising out of a lake of blood. Bill Hader as the adult Richie beneath a giant statue of Paul Bunyan (another item lifted directly from the book). The adults regrouping and returning to the sewers. And of course, a ton of red balloons being released into the sky.
Release date: September 6, 2019.

First footage detail for Doctor Sleep:
We got a glimpse behind the scenes, with Ewan McGregor (sporting a beard as the grown-up Danny) explaining that the film directly addresses his character’s traumatic stay at the Overlook Hotel. Specifically: “How does he deal with that terrible experience from his childhood?” Naturally, the presentation also noted that Stephen King is very involved in the production.
The sneak peek itself featured snippets of intriguing footage. A car driving through the woods in the beginning was clearly reminiscent of the opening sequence from The Shining. A group of people gathered around a campfire – possibly the villains of the film, a nomadic group of people with powerful psychic abilities who prey on those who can “shine.” We also see Danny touch hands with a young girl (possibly Abra Stone, a psychic kid played by Kyliegh Curran). Then there’s a shot of a woman walking with a needle hidden behind her back. Could this be Rose the Hat (Rebecca Ferguson), the main villain of the film?
Finally, the kicker: Danny stands in a filthy bathroom and “redrum” is scratched into the mirror.
Release date: November 8, 2019.
