Elevator Game is the new film by Rebekah McKendry, a director who caught my attention with All the Creatures Were Stirring and impressed me with Glorious. On the other hand, she also has a writing credit on the dismal Bring It On: Cheer or Die. So I was a little apprehensive when she did another teen-themed film that not only shared a lot of that film’s cast but was based on an urban legend that’s about ten years past its expiration date.

However, it was an enjoyably creepy legend. I even got talked into playing it walking back to my hotel after several films and several beers at Sfff one year. Of course, nothing happened, but it was unnerving when the doors opened and I...

Projects in the works include ‘The Distant Near’ and ‘A Life In Rose’.

Producers Katharina Suckale and Arfi Lamba of Indian-German co-production company Bombay Berlin Film Productions are in Cannes with two queer projects, and have also signed a deal with Mubi for Indian title Trijya (Radius).

The Distant Near, optioned by UK writer James Pout, tells the story of the German Olympian and world-record holding runner, Otto Peltzer, who survived the concentration camps of the 1940s but was subsequently refused dignity of life as he turned to coaching in post-war Germany, and was persecuted for being openly gay by the German Sports Association.

With the global film industry in a state of flux amidst unprecedented shifts in the production and distribution landscape, Tom Quinn’s indie label Neon isn’t just weathering the storm, it’s completely thriving. Currently in its fifth year of operation, the production and distribution company is quietly riding high after debuting three titles to critical acclaim at the Cannes Film Festival last month: Julia Ducournau’s gutsy and provocative body horror Titane, which notably earned Neon its second consecutive Palme d’Or win after Bong Joon Ho’s 2019 win for Parasite; Tilda Swinton starrer Memoria, which tied for Jury Prize; and anthology feature The Year Of The Everlasting Storm, one of the 10 productions that Neon greenlit since the beginning of the pandemic. Its festival pickup A Chiara also won Directors’ Fortnight.

“It’s almost an embarrassment of riches,” Quinn tells Deadline. “But it...

Tom Quinn, the founder of the indie studio Neon, thought that Netflix was making a big mistake. After seeing “Okja,” Bong Joon-ho’s eccentric creature feature, he believed passionately that the the offbeat visuals and ambitious story of girl’s bond with a super pig needed to be seen on the big screen. So began a six-month attempt by Quinn to convince the streaming service to partner with Neon on a theatrical release, an effort that ultimately failed.

“I felt it was a huge mistake,” said Quinn.

When Bong announced that he had a script for his next movie, “Parasite,” Quinn didn’t hesitate. He bought the project at the script stage, a highly unusual move for a U.S. studio.

“My disappointment at losing out on ‘Okja’ combined with my love for director Bong’s work caused me to be relentless in my pursuit of his next film,” said Quinn.

Lodgers scribe David Turpin penned the script and Phil Sheerin (North) is directing.

Exclusive: Shaked Berenson, co-founder with Patrick Ewald of indie producer-financier-distributor Epic Pictures, is exiting the company. Berenson had produced and executive produced more than 30 films in the tie-up since it was founded in 2007.

Epic confirmed Berenson’s departure, which comes as the company recently launched Dread Central Presents, its new horror label, following the acquisition of horror news and lifestyle site Dread Central Media. Its first production there is Middle East horror pic The Golem, from Doron and Yoav Paz; Epic showed footage to buyers at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

The company in the fall celebrated its 10-year anniversary with a party at the American Film Market.

“Just over a decade ago, I co-founded Epic Pictures with the goal of creating a home for filmmakers to bring their vision to reality from inception to distribution under one roof,” Berenson told Deadline. “During that time, I had the pleasure...

How do you talk to a stranger when you don't know who you are either?

When an amnesiac man (Diego Klattenhoff) wakes up after a car crash and starts finding dead bodies, he soon realises that something is vey wrong. But there's worse to come when the cause of the deaths emerges. It's him. Anybody who comes within a 50 foot radius of him dies.

That's the plot of Caroline Labrèche and Steeve Léonard's Radius, which screened at Fantasia earlier this year and is now available on VoD. Charlotte Sullivan plays the only person seemingly unaffected by the man's curse. She took the time to tell us how she got involved with the film.

It has been awhile since there has been any word on the sci-fi horror feature Radius. In 2016, the film was at the American Film Market. Since then, the film has found a release date, through Cable and Video-on-demand. Radius involves a car crash and one man's deadly powers. Anyone who enters within 50' of him instantly dies. Liam must find out the source of these superhuman powers, before more people die. Radius stars: Diego Klattenhoff, Charlotte Sullivan and many others. A new teaser trailer has been released for the film and it can be found here. The teaser shows Liam (Klattenhoff) investigating his crash. He also discovers a strange burn mark, in a field.

On November 10th,...

Smt Heads, you know there’s been a time when you wanted people to drop dead. But, given the mayhem in Epic Pictures’ upcoming Sci-Fi horror fest, “Radius,” maybe you’d need to make sure there was an off switch! Check out the Trailer right now (and don’t skip the pre-trailer for “Flint” while you’re at it):

Liam (Diego Klattenhoff) wakes from a car crash at the bottom of a deep ditch with no memory of who he is. As he makes his way into town, he discovers that anyone who comes within a 50-foot radius of him dies instantly. Out of options, he tries to live in seclusion to protect others, until the day a woman comes up to him and doesn’t die in his presence. With her arrival, Liam’s murderous power now seems to have subsided. The woman, Jane (Charlotte Sullivan), is also amnesiac and looking for answers.

Starring Diego Klattenhoff (The Blacklist, Homeland) and Charlotte Sullivan (Rookie Blue, Chicago Fire), Radius is a thriller that explores a unique, yet haunting idea: a man whose radius is deadly. Directed by Caroline Labrèche and Steeve Léonard, Radius earned critical acclaim during its festival run, which included FrightFest, Fantastic Fest, Fantasia Film Festival, and many more.

Epic Pictures Releasing has unveiled the trailer for a Canadian sci-fi thriller film titled Radius, which just played at Fantastic Fest and the Fantasia Film Festival this year. The concept for this film is pretty wild - a man wakes up from a car crash with no memory of who he is. He discovers that he has a dangerous power - anyone who comes within a 50-foot radius of him dies instantly. Yeah. How's that for a concept? Starring Diego Klattenhoff, along with Charlotte Sullivan, Brett Donahue, Bradley Sawatzky, and Nazariy Demkowicz. One of the quotes in this trailer compares this to Memento, where they have to go back and figure out what happened and what's going on, and how to stop this.

Liam wakes from a car crash with no memory of who he is. As he makes his way into town to look for help, he finds only dead bodies, all with strange pale eyes. Liam’s first assessment is that a virus is present in the air and starts taking every precaution.

It’s been five years since Don Mancini and Fiona Dourif raised the Empire roof with Curse Of Chucky and this year they are joined by the irrepressible Jennifer Tilly...

For the past six years, genre moviemakers and moneymen have congregated for long weekends at Montreal’s Fantasia International Film Festival, taking part in the Frontières Co-Production Marketplace. Founded in 2012, the market was conceived as a place for horror/fantasy/action auteurs — both established names and newcomers — to pitch projects to potential backers and take part in various networking events.

A highlight of the Market is the opening-day pitch session, in which selected directors, writers, and producers offer multimedia presentations of their nascent features. At the very first Frontières, this event spawned Anouk Whissell, Francois Simard, and Yoann-Karl Whissell’s exuberant futuristic actioner “Turbo Kid”; subsequent movies that took their first steps to fruition there include Steven Kostanski and Jeremy Gillespie’s cult/monster horror film “The Void”; Caroline Labrèche and Steeve Léonard’s science-fiction thriller “Radius,” which premiered at this year’s Fantasia; and Jenn Wexler’s upcoming punk-slasher opus “The Ranger.

21st edition of Montreal genre festival to also screen Atomic Blonde, Good Time and world premiere of 4K restoration of Suspiria.
