Even before they were popularised by Scream‘s slasher movie obsessive Randy, most of us were aware of the ‘rules’ of populating a horror movie. Don’t have sex. Don’t smoke weed. Don’t go off alone. And for heaven’s sake, stay away from Indian burial grounds. Lest we give Randy all the credit though, some horror movies have been giving away the rules for years – and in their title, no less.

Don’t Look Now, Don’t Go Near the Park, Don’t Hang Up, Don’t Go in the Woods, Don’t Open Till Christmas, Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark (a somewhat ironic title, that), Don’t Go To Sleep… this naming convention was (and is) popular enough to...

Never Open the Door Blu-ray / DVD / Digital HD Release Details: Press Release: "Los Angeles, CA - Maltauro Entertainment in association with Baumant Entertainment has announced the December 6th Blu-ray, DVD and...

Maltauro Entertainment in association with Baumant Entertainment has announced the December 6th Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD release of Never Open the Door; the latest film from writer/director Vito Trabucco – the genius behind the awesome slasher movie Bloody Bloody Bible Camp. Along with writer/producer Christopher Maltauro the pair have created a chilling homage to the twisted and otherworldly tales of the original Twilight Zone, Outer Limits and Alfred Hitchcock Presents series.

Three happy couples retreat to a cozy secluded cabin in the woods to enjoy Thanksgiving. A badly wounded stranger appears at the door, and when they let him in, he throws up blood and collapses on the floor. As he dies, he points towards the lovers and croaks his final words: “Never open the door”. The dumbfounded group of friends start to panic as one of their own inexplicably disappears. Doubt rises by the minute and mistrust soaks through the cabin.

Unsuspecting party guests find out the hard way that Davenport House is home to a vengeful spirit in The Haunting of Alice D. With the new horror film now out on DVD and Digital from Rlj Entertainment, we caught up with Jessica Sonneborn in our latest Q&A feature to discuss her experiences writing, directing, and co-starring in the The Haunting of Alice D, working with Kane Hodder, and much more.

Thanks for taking the time to answer some questions for us, Jessica. How did you come up with the idea for your new film, The Haunting of Alice D?

Jessica Sonneborn: I wanted to create a “cabin in the woods” style horror movie with a major twist that made it unique from other films like it. I was trying to think of something that could be done on a shoestring budget, but that also had some depth to it.

Rlj Entertainment has announced Jessica Sonneborn’s (Lure) The Haunting of Alice D for release on DVD and Digital Video May 3rd.

Writer/director Eric Anthony Pereira is lining up his new horror project 'American Girls'. The abduction story, which is based on actual events, will kick of shooting this coming January. But it has to be the impressively hot collection of stars that includes Kristina Page, Burgandi Phoenix, Devanny Pinn -below ('Nude Nuns with Big Guns'), Jessica Cameron and Tawny Amber Young (below). Pereira is currently finishing off post-production on his new comedy horror flick 'The Locals' where a group of young aspiring filmmakers head into the woods to shoot a horror movie but end up on the menu of some local cannibals. Josh Hammond, Chris Anglin, Al Snow, Kyle Morris, Barry Ratcliffe, Brandon Slagle and Carlos Ramirez all co-star in 'American Girls' and you can check out an extremely early, and gruesome, teaser for the movie below....

We just got a look at a crazy new Afm marketed teaser trailer for the Wetwork Media/Pinnovating Productions/Zeroinside Films production of the upcoming film American Girls, directed by Eric Anthony Pereira. And let's put it this way: I've never been more disturbed by a video of two chicks crawling all over each other!

Based on a chilling true story, the film (and trailer) stars Kristina Page (A Lure: Teen Fight Club, Aqua Caliente) and Devanny Pinn (Song of the Shattered, Piranha 3D). Other cast members that have signed on include Burgandi Phoenix, Josh Hammond (Jeepers Creepers II), Chris Anglin (A Christmas Carol), professional wrestler Al Snow (we believe Snow will be appearing sans head), Jessica Cameron (The Dead Matter), Kyle Morris (Night of the Living Dead: 3D), Barry Ratcliffe (The Witches of Oz), Tawny Amber Young (Bloody Wedding), Brandon Slagle (2012: Ice Age), Heidi Martinuzzi (Amateur Porn Star...

Eric Anthony Pereira's The Locals is not yet available, however, that's not stopping him from moving on to his next film, American Girls . Based on true events, the film is a happy-happy-fun time story (insert sarcasm there) about the abduction, rape and murder of two high school girls and the fallout that nearly decimates a small Mid-Western town as long buried secrets surface when the police begin to put together the pieces of the crime. Kristina Page, Burgandi Phoenix, Devanny Pinn, Josh Hammond, Chris Anglin, Al Snow, Jessica Cameron, Kyle Morris, Barry Ratcliffe, Tawny Amber Young, Brandon Slagle, Heidi Martinuzzi and Carlos Ramirez star. Shooting begins in January. Here's a teaser to get you prepared for what's to come.

What grabs you about a movie? Sometimes it's a kick-ass trailer that simply blows you away with awesome imagery and a peek into an amazing story. Sometimes it's the poster, a simple one-sheet that ropes you in, like the iconic Jaws poster or some of the creative shots for the Saw films. But sometimes all it takes is the title. That's definitely the case in Lance Polland's new film, Crack Whore.

There's not much that needs to be said after that title. You know it's going to be a hot mess of violence, blood and debauchery with a title like Crack Whore, and Polland assures us that's exactly what he delivers.

The veteran of such films as Bloody Bloody Bible Camp (featuring everyone's favorite hedgehog Ron Jeremy) and Slices, Polland has seen his share of blood and boobs. He is credited as writer and director on this project.

Crack Whore stars Julianne Tura,...
