Demián Rugna’s next supernatural horror is heading to Shudder—and the channel is already in full spooky season swing with a new look at the next V/H/S. Plus, what’s coming on the American Horror Story: Delicate premier. To me, my spoilers!
Where Evil Lurks
Deadline reports IFC Films has acquired the rights to Where Evil Lurks, the latest film from Terrified director, Demián Rugna, with plans for an October 6 theatrical release before a October 27 premiere on Shudder. Starring Ezequiel Rodriguez, Demián Salomon, Luis Ziembrowski, Silvia Sabater and Marcelo Michinaux, the story follows “a pair of brothers [who] find a mutilated corpse near their property and convene with the locals to suss it out. They soon learn that the odd happenings in their village are the cause of a spirit that’s found its way into a local man waiting for the proper protocols to rid his body of the festering demon. An escape attempt ensues as the film keeps its protagonists on edge, racing against imminent danger to shake the spirit’s relentless clutches.”
The Exorcist: Believer
Coming Soon has a new poster for David Gordon Green’s The Exorcist: Believer.
V/H/S/85
Shudder has released a new trailer for V/H/S/85, a sixth entry in the ongoing horror anthology franchise, this time including segments from Mike P. Nelson, Natasha Kermani, Gigi Saul Guerrero, Scott Derrickson and David Bruckner.
The Last of Us
During a recent interview with The Wrap, Craig Mazin stated he’s “not against the idea” of a Last of Us spinoff series, but doesn’t believe he’d be personally involved.
We haven’t talked about that specifically because we’re so focused on just telling this main narrative. I’m not against the idea of other shows that may draw from these characters or that world. I don’t know how much more The Last of Us I personally would be able to do. I mean, these shows are so big, I’m sort of burning one of the precious few remaining decades I have on telling this story. But in principle, I have no issue with it whatsoever. And I’m sure Neil would be interested as well. If there was something that made sense, then I don’t see why not. My great hope is that if there is anything like that, that it’s done with as much care and respect and love as what we are applying to this series right now.
Gen V
Bloody-Disgusting has official character descriptions of the entire Gen V cast.
Jaz Sinclair plays Marie Moreau, an 18-year-old superhero with the ability to control and weaponize her own blood. As an incoming freshman at Vought-run Godolkin University, she is eager to prove she has what it takes to join The Seven, but is sidetracked by a mystery she begins to unravel at the school.

When Andre realizes that something is afoot at the school, he takes it into his own hands to try and figure out the mystery.
Lizze Broadway plays Emma Meyer, who is also known by her superhero name, Little Cricket, for her ability to get super small.

Shelley Conn plays Indira Shetty, the dean of Godolkin University. She doesn’t have powers, but her background in superhero psychology and her peerless ability to analyze what makes supes tick make her indispensable to the school.

London Thor and Derek Luh play Jordan Li, a competitive student at Godolkin University who will do anything to get to the top.

Asa Germann plays Sam, a troubled supe who is desperately trying to escape his unfortunate circumstances. He’s extremely powerful, with super strength and invulnerability.
