Exclusive: Stoked Bros Media is producing a reimagining of Strictly Sexual, the cult 2008 comedy from director Joel Viertel.
Written by Stevie Long, the original low-budget title ranked as one of the most-watched movies on Hulu during the streamer’s earliest days, per reporting from NPR. The story centers around two successful women, sick and tired of dating and relationships, who decide to keep two young men in their pool house for strictly sexual purposes. During the ensuing months, however, the couples become closer and begin to develop romantic feelings.
Amber Benson, Johann Urb, Kristen Kerr, Trevor Murphy, and Long starred in the pic, which was followed up by Strictly Sexual: The Series, a 2011 spin-off produced by Viertel and Long that reunited much of the original cast.
Viertel will return to direct the remake, with Long co-writing the script alongside Stoked Bros Media co-founder and former NBA player turned filmmaker Jarnell Stokes...

One new movie I haven't heard much about until now is Ramzi Abed's The Devil's Muse, but that's all about to change. On September 30th Halo-8 Entertainment is releasing a deluxe two-disc set of the film. It'll be packed with goodies including a full-length soundtrack CD composed by David J (Bauhaus, Love & Rockets) and Ego Plum (Nicktoons' Making Fiends).
So, what's The Devil's Muse about? Halo-8 provided this summary:
When beautiful young actress Lisa Small (Kristen Kerr of David Lynch's Inland Empire) is cast as the tragic victim known as The Black Dahlia in a film about Hollywood's most famous unsolved murder, an entire dreamworld awakens around her. Meanwhile, a local sociopath has set out on a copycat murder spree timed out with the 60th anniversary of the original killing. A spider's web grows around Lisa as her nightmares and desires intersect with the death toll rising around her.
