Colin Farrell is partnering with Oscar winner Edward Berger for Netflix feature “Ballad of a Small Player.” The recent Emmy nominee stars as a high-stakes gambler whose past debts catch up with him.

Berger recently directed the popular “Conclave” and first helmed history-making “All Quiet on the Western Front.” Fala Chen, Deanie Ip, Alex Jennings, and Tilda Swinton also star in “Ballad of a Small Player,” which is adapted from Lawrence Osborne’s novel. Rowan Joffe wrote the script.

The synopsis reads: “When his past and his debts start to catch up with him, a high-stakes gambler laying low in Macau encounters a kindred spirit who might just hold the key to his salvation.”

The Portland, Oregon-based Laika has, in its first 20 years, become as identifiable an animation brand as Studio Ghibli or Pixar.

The studio is known for their handcrafted stop-motion-animated tales that flirt with the macabre and, while being (so far at least) for all audiences, never forgo their edge. And, in celebrating their 20th anniversary leading up to the release of their latest feature “Wildwood” next year, the company is pulling out all the stops, with a lineup of new product releases, partnerships, exhibitions and publishing initiatives. This includes everything from a redesign of the official site (by creative agency Monks) to new merchandise coming to the official shop to a series of videos from Devon Rodriguez (you can see an exclusive video below) to a Rizzoli coffee table book called “Laika: The Magic Behind a Stop-Motion Dream Factory.” For the next year, everything is truly coming up Laika.

Bones And All (July 1) Credit – MGM

Bones and All is a romantic horror film directed by Luca Guadagnino from a screenplay by David Kajganich. Based on the 2015 novel of the same name by Camille DeAngelis, the 2022 film is set in the 1980s and revolves around two young cannibals who fall in love with each other during a cross-country road trip. Bones and All stars Taylor Russell, Timothée Chalamet,...

Luca Guadagnino is a loyal collaborator. He’s worked with Timothée Chalamet and Dakota Johnson twice, Tilda Swinton four times, but the people he’s worked with most frequently are his screenwriters. Over the years, IndieWire has spoken multiple times with Guadagnino’s go-tos, David Kajganich and Justin Kuritzkes, each time learning more about what it takes to collaborate with one of cinema’s most respected and revered filmmakers.

Kajganich is known for penning Guadagnino’s adaptations of “A Bigger Splash,” “Suspiria,” and “Bones and All,” while Kuritzkes wrote “Challengers” as a spec script, prompting the filmmaker to later ask him to help conceive the screenplay for the William S. Burroughs-inspired “Queer.” Keep reading below to find out the lessons they learned working with the subversive, yet alluring creative.

In a 2018 interview with IndieWire’s Jamie Righetti, Kajganich said his reimagining Dario Argento’s giallo classic “Suspiria” began with facts,...

Edward Berger will helm the Ridley Scott-produced screen version of the 1994 novel by Tim Winton, which has been in development in various incarnations for 25 years

Edward Berger, whose papal thriller Conclave won best film at the Baftas and was nominated for eight Oscars, has signed on to direct Brad Pitt in a big-screen version of Tim Winton’s novel The Riders.

The film will be financed by US studio A24, produced by Ridley Scott and written by David Kajganich, a frequent collaborator of Luca Guadagnino.

Riding high on the successes of war drama All Quiet On The Western Front and papal conspiracy thriller Conclave, filmmaker Edward Berger has had his name linked to all sorts of eyebrow raising projects — from Ocean's 14 to a new Bourne movie. But while both of those particular whispers seem to have proven premature, it does look like Berger is set to work with Ocean's alumni Brad Pitt after all, on a very different kind of joint to Steven Soderbergh's heist flicks. According to Deadline, Berger will direct Pitt in an A24 adaptation of The Riders, Australian author Tim Winton's Booker Prize nominated 1994 bestseller.

He’s been continously linked to reviving superspies on both sides of the Atlantic in the form of both James Bond and Jason Bourne, but Berger was eventually announced as the director of Barrier, a time travel thriller starring Austin Butler. Beyond that though, it sounds as though the filmmaker will be teaming up with Brad Pitt to take on a globe-spanning thriller for A24.

The project is set to be an adaptation of author Tim Winton’s novel The Riders, and follows – per Wikipedia’s plot description:

‘Fred Scully, whose family...

Brad Pitt will star in a movie adaptation of the novel The Riders. Pitt is teaming up with Conclave director Edward Berger on the project.

Author Tim Winton's 1994 novel, which landed on the shortlist for the prestigious Booker Prize, follows a father, Fred, and his 7-year-old daughter Billie's desperate search for his wife. The novel begins with the family moving from Ireland and Australia, but Fred's wife Jennifer never arrives. Fred and Billie resolve to travel across Europe to discover how Jennifer suddenly disappeared without a trace.

This post contains mild spoilers for "Blood Creek."

Vampire horror movies are a dime-a-dozen, often falling into the same genre trappings or retreading familiar storylines. This is not always a bad thing, though, as long as there's fun to be had: films like "Blade" or "Van Helsing" entertain us by expertly balancing thrilling action with dramatic tension while knowing it is best not to indulge in self-seriousness. Well, what about an odd little vampire tale that is both campy and self-serious, as well as equal parts ridiculous and entertaining? Welcome to Joel Schumacher's unforgettable "Blood Creek," where a Nazi vampire scholar named Richard Wirth (a young Michael Fassbender) wreaks havoc after being freed from captivity by two brothers who really should have known better. Henry Cavill and Dominic Purcell play Evan and Victor Marshall, respectively, and it is up to this duo to try and stop this near-immortal Nazi...

You used to hear the refrain from horror film fanatics with a lot more frequency – the original was so much scarier.

And while this is still true to some degree (the films of John Carpenter have been remade with an oddly uniform lousiness), there are still plenty of horror films that have been remade well. Sometimes the remakes are just as good as the original. In rare cases, it even surpasses the original.

Here is our definitive list of the very best horror remakes ever.

(United Artists) “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” (1978)

Don Siegel’s 1956 classic “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” is based on Jack Finney’s story “The Body Snatchers,” which was serialized in Collier’s in 1954 and published as a novel shortly after, has been remade several times over the years. But the very best iteration is still the 1978 version, the first since Siegel’s, from director Philip Kaufman and writer W.D. Richter.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for The Terror season 1, episode 10!

AMC's supernatural horror series The Terror is inspired by the real-life doomed expedition of Captain Franklin and his crew on the Hms Terror, as they tried to find a way through the frozen Arctic, so most of the characters in The Terror are based on the real crew members. The Terror creator and showrunner David Kajganich was a professional wilderness instructor and tour guide before he became a writer, and he became fascinated by the story of Captain Franklin and his men, describing it as "an unnerving mystery" in a Screen Daily interview.

Not much is known about the real Edward Little, but the character, played by Matthew McNulty, is a loyal, capable officer, and an introverted, thoughtful man. In The Terror season 1 finale, Little is found dying in his tent with multiple piercings in his face, attached to gold chains.

The Terror, a 2018 horror show that has 94% score on Rotten Tomatoes, has become a streaming hit on Netflix. AMC recently secured a deal with Netflix that has meant some of its biggest series would also be available on Netflix. 15 shows in total, including spinoffs of The Walking Dead and Interview with the Vampire, have been exposed to a bigger U.S. audience as a result while still being identified as AMC Originals. The deal, which is currently on a short-term basis, also includes shows like Preacher, Dark Winds, Mayfair Witches, and others.

According to data provided by Reelgood, which tracks performance on streaming, the horror anthology The Terror is among the AMC shows that have found new life on streaming after being made available on Netflix. For the week of August 22 through August 28, The Terror landed in the tenth spot for the top shows across all streaming platforms. Bad Monkey,...

Summer is winding to a close, though the blistering sun has not yet received the memo. That means the final days of vacationing or summer road trips are in order. Of course, horror has taught us the myriad of ways that the open road can induce abject terror and stress; flat tires are the least of your summer worries in horror.

Films like The Hitcher, Near Dark, and Splinter highlight how car troubles, creepy rest stops, and seedy motels don’t compare to humanity’s worst- human or otherwise- prowling the highways.

This week’s streaming picks are dedicated to road trip horror movies. These five titles exploit our travel anxieties by pitting their protagonists against vampires, cannibals, psychopaths, and the devil himself over vast stretches of highway.

Summer is here, and if you're anything like me, you're ready for July to be over after the last several weeks of unbearably hot weather. I've already gotten a head start on the spooky season by taking in some summer scares over the past month (check out our picks for the best horror movies streaming right now), with plans to keep barreling ahead until further notice. Luckily, as chance would have it, August's batch of new arrivals on Netflix is packed with either horror titles or horror-adjacent offerings.

So, should you be so inclined, join me on the dark side as we get our macabre on with stories of blood-suckers, cannibals, killer robots, and the scariest thing of all: a mentally unwell person who really, really wants to be famous.

Recalling the first time one of his films screened at the Cannes Film Festival, a young filmmaker remembered how the duration of the standing ovation the audience gave seemed to grow with every retelling in the media. In the room, he clocked about “a six-and-a-half-minute standing ovation, [but] by the time I had got back to L.A., it had grown to 20 minutes,” he said. “I said: ‘Wait a minute, I’m happy with six. I never even had a two-minute ovation.’ ”

That director was Steven Spielberg. The film was E.T. the Extra Terrestrial, which closed the 35th Cannes festival in 1982. Even back then, they were timing standing ovations — and arguing about just how long a festival audience stayed on its feet clapping. There’s a long a tradition of using that figure, preferably inflated, as a marketing hook in your movie’s rollout.

AMC says Devil in Silver “tells the story of Pepper — a working-class moving man, who through a combination of bad luck and a bad temper, finds himself wrongfully committed to New Hyde Psychiatric Hospital — an institution filled with the people society would rather forget. There, he must contend with patients who work against him, doctors who harbor grim secrets,...

Bones and All combines elements of romance and horror, with a strong atmosphere that adds to the overall experience. In the shocking ending, Maren's mother tries to kill her, leading Maren to initially reject love. However, she later reunites with Lee, and they try to live a normal life together.

I hate to be the one to inform you of this, but Bill Skarsgård has revealed he will not be returning to the role of Pennywise for the upcoming "It" prequel series, "Welcome to Derry."

"Yeah, we'll see what they come up with and what they do with it. As of now, I'm not currently involved with it," the actor explained during an interview with Jake's Takes. "If someone else gets to do it, my advice would be: Do it your own. Make it your own. Have fun with it. What I found pleasurable about that character is how abstract he was."

Is this a super sad but understandable choice for Skarsgård, considering the actor shouldn't be unfairly imprisoned by his most famous character? Most rational folks would say yes here, and I definitely agree. Skarsgård is a great performer, and it obviously wouldn't be doing his skills justice to...

‘Aftersun’ wins Best First Feature, ‘Joyland’ Best International Film.

A24’s Everything Everywhere All At Once has dominated the 2023 Spirit Awards, claiming seven of the eight awards it was nominated for including film, director for the Daniels, and lead and supporting performance for Michelle Yeoh and Ke Huy Quan, respectively.

Heading into the show, Everything Everywhere All at Once led the film nominations with eight nods, winning every category in which it was nominated. Jamie Lee Curtis also was nominated but lost to her Eeao co-star Quan for best supporting performance.

On the TV side, The Bear was named best new scripted series, with Ayo Edebiri taking home the award for best supporting performance in a new scripted series.

In a year in which the frontrunners for Best Adapted Screenplay are still unclear, the USC Libraries naming the finalists for the 35th annual USC Libraries Scripter Awards offer more insight into what scripts most stand out. The award, which honors the writers of the year’s most accomplished film and episodic series adaptations, as well as the writers of the works on which they are based, is a major bellwether for the Oscars race, as its winners overlapped with the Best Adapted Screenplay winners from 2011 to 2019. Its voter base is a mix of academics, industry professionals, and critics.

As expected, Sarah Polley’s screenplay for “Women Talking,” an adaptation of Miriam Toews’ 2018 novel, of which the filmmaker has already won several critics awards for, is among this year’s Scripter Award finalists. Nobel Prize-winning novelist Kazuo Ishiguro’s “Living” script (a Tolstoy novella adaptation) and Rebecca Lenkiewicz’s “She Said...

“Everything Everywhere,” about an immigrant mother’s attempt to save her daughter (and the universe), is one of 10 nominees for Best Picture. Filmmakers Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert also received noms for Best Director and Best Original Screenplay.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences gives out awards every single year, and like any other group, over time it’s clear that they have their favorites. Serious dramas reign at the Oscars, so much so that it’s a genuine shock when genre films get any serious attention outside of the technical categories. In particular, horror films like “The Silence of the Lambs,” “The Exorcist,” and “Get Out” win Oscars so very rarely that they’re easily written off as exceptions to the rule, instead of evidence that the horror genre is as rich and nuanced as any other and takes just as much award-worthy talent to craft.

Every year it seems as if there are a handful of horror movies and performances that receive the much-coveted Oscar buzz, only to emerge from the season empty-handed. If Academy voters can convince themselves not to nominate Toni Collette...

This year brought the return of Ghostface, Predator, Pinhead, Michael Myers, and Leatherface. Beyond the franchises, 2022 unleashed an onslaught of new releases that introduced new voices and horror icons to the genre.

In other words, horror continues to dominate while it stretches its boundaries and flexes its creative muscles.

If there’s one thing this past year made clear, it’s that horror-loving audiences are ready for a return to crowd-pleasing, fun horror that doesn’t skimp on scares.

Because it was such a strong year for horror, here are the top 15 best horror movies of 2022.
