Universal’s “Dark Universe” may have gone up in flames right out of the gate, but that’s not stopping other studios from (unofficially) making their own Universal Monsters mashups.
All the classic monsters unite to brawl in The Asylum’s Monster Mash, which is coming to select theaters as well as VOD outlets at home on the same day, Friday, March 29, 2024.
Who brings them all together, you ask? Michael Madsen, of course!
In Monster Mash, “A dying Dr. Frankenstein is determined to meld the world’s strongest monsters into a singular, unstoppable creation. Now the monsters—including Dracula, Werewolf, and the Invisible Man—must work together to stop him before it’s too late.”
The film will be opening theatrically in the following locations:
Laemmle – Glendale, California Hickory Ridge Cinemas – Brunswick, Ohio Trylon Cinema – Minneapolis, Minnesota O Cinema – South Beach, Miami, Florida Aurora Cineplex – Roswell, Georgia

Yes, you read that title right, not The Exorcist but The Exorcists. And with a title like that could anyone else but The Asylum be responsible for it?
Father Ryland is in the cemetery reading sports scores to one of the deceased when he’s approached by Father Cortez. He comes bearing bad news, Ryland’s mentor, Father Murphy has passed away.
But before he passed he he told Cortez to find Ryland and ask him to help with a case of possession, something he hasn’t done since an exorcism went wrong and caused the death of the young boy he was reading to. Given the circumstances, he agrees to help.
Meanwhile in Chicago, Sister Caroline has tracked down Doctor Beckett while she’s on vacation,...

The folks at The Asylum are the masters of the mockbuster – those being lower budget movies that are made and released around the same time as bigger budget studio movies with similar titles and concepts. Some of their previous films include Snakes on a Train, Transmorphers, Almighty Thor, Battle Star Wars, Top Gunner, Jurassic Domination, and The Little Mermaid. It’s pretty easy to figure out what each one of those was trying to cash in on. Now, with a new Exorcist sequel (The Exorcist: Believer) set to reach theatres on October 6th, The Asylum has announced that they will be releasing a movie called The Exorcists on September 29th – and a trailer for the film can be seen in the embed above!

The Headless Horseman is one of the latest horror films from The Asylum to hit DVD here in the UK, and it;s what sounds like a mashup of Ghost Rider and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Or Ghost Rider and The Punisher if the UK DVD artwork is to be believed.
To quote the film’s press release “When seconds from death, a nearly decapitated and desperate man makes a deal with the devil to protect the love of his life and seek revenge on the drug dealer who almost murdered him.” Why does it not surprise me that The Asylum’s lack of quality extends to its marketing department?

In the late 1990s, word came out that Tobe Hooper‘s son William Tony Hooper was going to be directing a short film called All American Massacre, which would see Bill Moseley reprising the role of Chop Top from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (get it Here). What was originally expected to be a 10 to 15 minute short reportedly ended up with a running time of 60 minutes… but fans never got to see this Chop Top movie. More than twenty years after All American Massacre was filmed, it still hasn’t been released. So producer/director Edward Payson has made the feature-length documentary In Search of All American Massacre: The Lost Texas Chainsaw Film in hopes of learning more about this buried project.
In Search of All American Massacre: The Lost Texas Chainsaw Film is set to be released through Amazon Prime, Tubi, and Plex on November 30th. Coming to us from Anti-Hero Productions,...

On a hot and humid day in August L.J. Rivera's Galactic Film Festival held a Filmmaker's roundtable at the classic Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood, where new and aspiring filmmakers were treated to the wisdom and inspirational words of Jon Kondelik and James Kondelik, two identical twin filmmakers who have been making waves with a pair of highly anticipated upcoming indie films, in a panel that wound up being moderated by scream queen Jessica Cameron and myself.
The two anticipated films in question are The Divine Tragedies and Behind the Walls. I got to see the first fifteen minutes of The Divine Tragedies, which was produced by the Kondelik brothers and written and directed by Jose Prendes, last December at the legendary but now sadly closed Jumpcut Cafe, and was immediately taken in by the film's idiosyncratic style, which seemed to me to be David Lynch...

*full disclosure: an online screener of this film was provided by producer and actor Jon Kondelik. Kondelik and this critic have worked together, in the past. Director/writer: Jose Prendes. Cast: Graham Denman, Hannah Levien, Barbara Crampton, Sean Whalen, Ken Foree and Lynn Lowry. The Divine Tragedies is an unreleased film from production house Dual Visions. Developed by Jose Prendes (The Haunting of Whaley House), The Divine Tragedies is a tale of two murderous brothers. On separate paths, the two brothers come to blows, on their murderous tactics and ideologies. The film also introduces a host of horror stars, but most are underused. Instead, this indie feature focuses on one brother's destruction and descent into madness. Meanwhile, the green and red lighting added in a nightmarish quality, while the story developed in a dream-like fashion, overall. The Divine Tragedies offers a compelling story and indie film fans will enjoy the film's central conflict.

Jon Kondelik and his brother James Kondelik are releasing a second trailer for The Divine Tragedies, today. A Dual Visions production, The Divine Tragedies takes a chapter from the 1920s Leopold and Loeb murder case, in which two men tried to get away with murder. In this update, Charles (Graham Denman) and Thomas (Jon Kondelik) are two brothers, who target a vulnerable, single mother. They believe their wits will win the day, until Detective Homer Gaul (Ken Foree) enters the picture. A true visual marvel, the second trailer shows more of the film's story, characters and dangerous situations. As well, the producers, along with director Jose Prendes, have unveiled several more posters. In quad form, the graphics host quotes from early film reviews. Matt Boiselle (Dreadcentral) and Mark Miller are quoted and both film critics enjoyed the surreal atmosphere of the film. All three new quad posters can also be seen here.

Two psychotic brothers are on a rampage to fulfill their fantasies of murder but at what cost? Are they willing to give up their close bond of brotherhood? It's that bond that sits at the center of Jose Prendes' The Divine Tragedies, a low-budget offering from the producing team of brothers Jon and James Kondelik.
The movie, starring Graham Denman and Jon Kondelik as the brothers, is quite obviously an indie production but man, there's a great energy to this trailer and if you can overlook some mediocre special effects, this looks like a promising mind bender of a little horror movie.
The Divine Tragedies is currently in post production.

Sometimes I am leery of independent features that seem to grab actors that seem to do plenty of conventions as it seems a bit of a cash grab. This isn’t the case all the time but more often than not these actors are used to exploit genre fans to see another low budget film that doesn’t add anything unique to the genre. However, given what I am seeing in this trailer, there seems to be something that could be interesting. Ken Foree, Sean Whalen,
Lynn Lowry and Barbara Crampton are your veteran genre actors in The Divine Tragedies. I will fully admit that the first half of this trailer gives the viewer nothing to differentiate it from the growing pack of low budget genre films. But the latter half of the trailer, there is definitely some imagery that catches the eye. Take a look for yourself above.

But the latter half of the trailer, there is definitely some imagery that catches the eye. Take a look for yourself above.

Dual Visions is moving closer to a release date for the serial killer feature The Divine Tragedies. This film was developed by two brothers: James and Jon Kondelik, along with director Jose Prendes.

As well, the film centrally stars: Barbara Crampton, Ken Foree, Lynn Lowry, Sean Whalen and Graham Denman. Now, a new poster is available for the film.

indie horror films The Divine Tragedies has revealed yet another one-sheet, this is probably the best one yet. The Divine Tragedies is a film which takes its story from truth. Leopold and Loeb were two intellectuals, who thought they could get away with the perfect murder, in 1924’s Chicago.
In Jose Prendes’ vision, the two killers are brothers. Set in the modern era, Charles Brubaker (Graham Denman) and Thomas Lo Bianco (Jon Kondelik) believe they are above the law and they kill without mercy. Their murders become more and more gruesome, until Detective Homer (Ken Foree) is able to intervene. But, Homer is only a few steps away from his own tragedy.

Dual Visions has pulled back more of the curtain for the horror feature The Divine Tragedies. An official trailer for the film is now available. The clip, from director Jose Prendes and producers Jon and James Kondelik, shows two ruthless characters and their desire to carry out of the perfect crime. The film is reminiscent of other surreal films from the past, including David Cronenberg's Videodrome (1982). The Divine Tragedies stars Jon Kondelik, Barbara Crampton, Ken Foree, Lynn Lowry and Graham Denman. The full trailer is here. The film is based on the Leopold and Loeb murder case, from Chicago. In the early 1900s, two men would murder a child, in order to test their wits against authorities. In The Divine Tragedies, the characters are named Charles Brubaker and Thomas Lo Bianco. Together, this twisted duo hope to kill a young, single mother and evade authorities. But, Det. Homer is quickly on their trail.

From writer/director Jose Prendes comes The Divine Tragedies, a horror film about two intellectual brothers who want to kill just for the experience. The brothers, played by Graham Denman and Jon Kondelik, find that the deed is easier said then done as both their relationships and minds begin to break. The trailer for the film looks like nothing else this year and gets progressively more unusual as it goes on. The film also features a pseudo-From Beyond reunion with Ken Foree as a detective and Barbara Crampton as the boy’s mother. The film will be released in 2015.

Recently, Shock visited the set of The Divine Tragedies, the new film from director Jose Prendes (The Haunting of Whaley House). There were a lot of familiar faces on the set, but none more appealing than Barbara Crampton. After a hiatus from acting, Ms. Crampton (seen in last year's You're Next) has returned with a vengeance, taking on her most wicked role to date, the woman known as Mother. Naturally, we wanted to know more, and she was kind enough to sit and give us all a window into the madness of The Divine Tragedies.

On a special day of shooting writer-director Jose Prendes’ Divine Tragedies with the fantastic Ken Foree, Dread Central was invited to watch some... well… shooting. In the scene they were about to film, Foree’s character gets shot. Whether he lives or dies, we can’t say...
But here’s what Prendes had to say:
Dread Central: So, tell us how you assembled this amazing cast!
Jose Prendes: Ken Foree and Barbara Crampton were always on our list, but we never thought we could get them, or thought they would be into it, because the roles are very stylized. Especially Barbara's role, which is very unique, and she hasn't really played anything like that before. So for her to call me up and say, 'This is a really disturbing script but it would make such a lovely movie and I want to be a part of it,' really means a lot.
