Fresh off playing a pivotal role in the horror film Smile (watch it Here), which earned over 200 million at the global box office, Caitlin Stasey has signed on to play the lead in the horror thriller Devil Inside. Stasey is joined in the cast by Lou Taylor Pucci (Evil Dead 2013) and Ryan Kwanten (Glorious). Devil Inside is currently in pre-production, and is expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2023.
Directed by Jonathan auf Der Heide (Van Diemen’s Land), who also wrote the screenplay with Tom Holloway, Devil Inside is described as being in the vein of 28 Days Later and It Comes at Night – and Variety even used the dreaded “elevated” label when covering the movie, saying it’s “pitched as an elevated genre film”.

Tony Briggs on the set of his short ‘Elders.’
After Tony Briggs spent a year playing Pete Baxter in Neighbours, his screen debut, he discovered the producers had debated whether to identify his character as Indigenous.
He was not aware of those discussions and was very pleased when he found out another actor on the serial had advised the producers that wasn’t necessary.
That was in 1988. Since then he has played numerous characters whose nationality was not mentioned in Rosehaven, Rake, Cleverman, The Warriors (which he co-created with Robert Connolly), Seven Types of Ambiguity, Nowhere Boys and Wentworth, alternating with multiple stage roles.
The creator of The Sapphires is serving as the artistic director of the inaugural Birrarangga Film Festival, a celebration of Indigenous filmmakers from around the world, which will be staged at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image from April 26 – 29.

Directors/writers: The Butcher Brothers (Mitchell Altieri, Phil Flores). Cast: Cory Knauf, Samuel Child, Elizabeth Henstridge, Daniel O'Meara, Mackenzie Firgens, Ryan Hartwig, Sean Browne, Tom Holloway, Joseph McKelheer, and Selina Giles. The Thompsons is a sequel to the 2006 film The Hamiltons. Both films deal with a vampire clan in search of ever more blood to drink. This reviewer is unfamiliar with the first film, but this second title can be seen on its own. Centrally, The Thompsons is a story of Francis (Cory Knauf). His voice over narration guides the story from the United States over to the United Kingdom. His journey is full of violence with his brothers and sisters looking for aid for the fallen Lenny (Ryan Hartwig). They do not find help, but they do find a malevolent vampire clan bent on destroying them. The Butcher Brothers (Mitchell Altieri and Phil Flores) have created a fantastic tale...
