TRUE BLOOD’s third-season debut is a little more than a month away (June 13), and the HBO series has a new minisode that has hit the web.

Plague-ridden medieval England: Bodies lie scattered in their hundreds, the country is in turmoil. One hope remains: rumors of a village that is unaffected by the deadly disease. That’s the setup for Christopher Smith’s (CREEP, SEVERANCE, TRIANGLE) BLACK DEATH, which now has an official website.

The FRIGHT NIGHT remake casting is shaping up and now word has come as to who will take over as the smoothest vampire on Charley Brewster’s block.

Glass Eye Pix and Dark Sky Films have released the first pair of photos from their co-production THE INNKEEPERS, which reunites them with writer/director Ti West (pictured left) from THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL. You can see them after the jump.

RINGU and DARK WATER director Hideo Nakata’s latest film CHATROOM will be premiering at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, and a trailer is now on-line. You can see it below the jump.

Ray Park’s next film will be the supernatural thriller JINN. Click past the jump to check out the poster and find out who else is in the cast, joining the man who will forever be known as STAR WARS’ Darth Maul and also appeared in X-MEN and G.I. JOE: THE RISE OF COBRA.

This summer, FANGORIA—in partnership with feature film, television and DVD distributor Lightning Media and Blockbuster—will begin a unique, multi-tiered film distribution program called FANGORIA FrightFest. This exclusive series will consist of eight new feature films, including PIG HUNT, FRAGILE, GRIMM LOVE, DARK HOUSE, HUNGER, ROAD KILL, THE HAUNTING and THE TOMB.

FANGORIA is giving away four sets of two passes to Chicago’s Terror In The Aisles 4: Undead By Dawn on May 21! This year, the triple feature celebrates the undead with a bill you’re not going to want to miss (including the Midwest premiere of [REC] 2). Read on for the info! 

As the undead action-horror adventure THE DEVIL’S PLAYGROUND heads off to the Cannes Film Festival market this month, it left some exclusive stills in its wake. We scooped them up and have them for your perusal after the jump!

Upon returning from the first Fantasy Horror Awards in Orvieto, Italy, Federico Zampaglione, director of SHADOW (see exclusive pics below), invited Fango to stay at his Roman penthouse. On entering this wonderful complex, two sights greeted this writer’s eyes that made it clear this was a match made in heaven: Lucio Fulci’s THE BEYOND and poliziotteschi were prominent in Zampaglione’s DVD collection, and a welcoming pizzeria was situated across the road. The filmmaker then sat down to discuss SHADOW, which opens theatrically in Italy this Friday, May 14, and give us the scoop on his new project.

Darren Lynn Bousman’s MOTHER’S DAY remake is completed, and although the director had hoped to have a trailer ready, fans have to be content with a few new stills he released. You can give ’em a look below.
