Back in 1967, The Beatles told us, “All You Need Is Love.” Back in 2004, writer Hiroshi Sakurazaka brought the world a novel called All You Need Is Kill, which served as the basis for the 2014 Tom Cruise sci-fi adventure Edge of Tomorrow… and I could understand why the title was changed for the movie, as All You Need Is Kill never sounded quite right to me. A better version would be All You Need Is Death – and that’s the title the makers of an upcoming folk horror movie have decided to use for their film, which is set to receive a VOD and limited theatrical release on April 11th. With that release date just a couple weeks away, a trailer for All You Need Is Death has arrived online, and you can check it out in the embed above.

Streaming services are now trying to ration their upcoming original content due to the ongoing actors strike and the only recently-resolved writers’ strike, so we’re going to see a thinning-down of new releases across the board over the next six months at least. Hulu will be adding a lot of library TV shows and movies in November, but there are only a few new major original projects hitting the streamer this month.
Hulu’s spotlight streaming series in November is Black Cake, which is based on the bestselling book by Charmaine Wilkerson. Part family drama, part murder mystery, the show features a globetrotting story that will cover decades of events after a bereaved family find a flash drive that contains some shocking secrets about the hidden history of their late matriarch.
Also dropping on Hulu this month is the original film Quiz Lady, starring Sandra Oh, Awkwafina, Jason Schwartzman,...

Exclusive: Larsen Thompson (The Midnight Club) and Olwen Fouéré (The Northman) have joined the cast of the upcoming film Horrorscope, from Screen Gems and Alloy Entertainment. The actors join an ensemble which also includes Jacob Batalon, Alana Boden, Adain Bradley, Avantika, Humberly González and Wolfgang Novogratz, as previously announced.
The film based on Alloy’s same-name novel penned by Nicholas Adams follows a group of college friends who get their horoscopes read, and then begin dying in ways connected to their fortunes. Are their fates fatal or can they change what’s written in the stars?
Details as to Thompson and Fouéré’s roles are being kept under wraps. But Anna Halberg and Spenser Cohen wrote the script and will direct, in their feature debut, with production set to kick off this fall.

Like most streaming services, Hulu is not the place to go if you're looking for older movies. Its 20th century horror selection is limited, at best. However, its selection of recent horror films is excellent. Hulu is also a great home for women-directed horror films, including "The Other Lamb," "Sea Fever," "Little Joe" and "Saint Maud" (to name some of the best ones).
However, I have been tasked with choosing the scariest horror films on Hulu, and we all have different definitions of what makes a scary movie. For some, it's gore and body horror....

Paul Mescal emerged as one of the breakout stars of 2020 thanks to his performance in BBC and Hulu drama “Normal People.”
Ireland has seen a slew of such acting talent establish themselves in recent years, like Jessie Buckley with her star turn as the pregnant wife of a doomed Russian fireman in “Chernobyl” and Barry Keoghan, who won attention with lead roles in two 2017 films, “Killing of a Sacred Deer” and “Dunkirk.” Keoghan is now BAFTA-nominated for “Calm with Horses,” as is Niamh Algar, whose credits include “The Virtues” and “Raised by Wolves.” Elsewhere Domhnall Gleeson has made a name for himself as General Dux in recent “Star Wars” films, and also in “The Revenant” and “Ex Machina.”
Among the new generation of actors to watch are Fionn O’Shea, chosen as one of the Berlin Film Festival’s Shooting Stars of 2021. A “Normal People” alumnus, O’Shea will next be...

For many people, 2020 was a real-life scary movie, but through it all, viewers and creators made sure that horror cinema was alive and well. When theaters closed, drive-ins opened. When film festivals couldn't happen in person, they took place online. When movie sets weren't operational, films were made from the safety of homes.
Like life, horror finds a way (as Dr. Ian Malcolm might say). Even in a year like 2020, there were still a bunch of new horror movies to watch and diverse filmmaking voices to be heard, giving Corpse Club co-hosts Heather Wixson, Scott Drebit, Bryan Christopher, and Derek Anderson plenty to talk about when it comes to their favorite horror films of 2020. From Scare Me and Sea Fever to Host and The Invisible Man, listen as the co-hosts discuss the horror films that enthralled, enlightened, and entertained them in a truly unforgettable year.

I can’t imagine I’ll be the first person to kick off their year-end favorites list by saying it was a dumpster fire. But while we’re all eager to put this Hindenburg-esque disaster of a year in our rearview, there were certainly some highlights in the world of horror. We squeaked in a few theatrical releases before we all had to go into involuntary hibernation, and while the disruption to major releases wasn’t ideal, we got a chance to give some love to smaller releases that may have flew under the radar in other years. Add to that some great genre television and virtual events that let us come together and celebrate horror without even having to put on pants, and there are definitely reasons to rejoice. Here are a few of mine in no particular order.

As the cinema of celestial brutes and space-set horrors goes, Ridley Scott’s 1979 classic “Alien” still retains a gold-standard status among its kind, continuing to lend its DNA to various sci-fi quests beyond the atmosphere. The latest film to ingest a piece of its eerie spirit — albeit, with varying degrees of success — is “Sputnik,” a tense genre exploit by debuting Russian director Egor Abramenko.
A claustrophobic character study with gripping set pieces, serviceable spatters of gross-out B-movie gore and plenty of red-lit corridors, “Sputnik” doesn’t quite deliver upon the juicy potential of its paranoia-induced Cold War-era backdrop. Still, Abramenko maintains the film’s finite appeal throughout, mostly thanks to a familiar aura and a charismatic lead performance by Oksana Akinshina, a fine surrogate for the tough-as-nails heroine Ellen Ripley.
Despite its limitations — among them is an inelegantly designed extraterrestrial antagonist and simplistic special effects created on a small budget...

Two months ago, Universal CEO Jeff Shell told Wall Street that it took”Trolls World Tour” less than two weeks to gross $95 on premium VOD. This week, on the four top 10 lists we track, that studio holds 17 of the 40 slots.
“Trolls” and the Judd Apatow’s “The King of Staten Island” both landed at #1 at two sites, all at the premium $19.99 price. “Trolls” transitioned to Est (electronic sell through), as opposed to rental only, which got the animated sequel the no. 1 slot at iTunes (it doesn’t list rental-only titles) and Fandango. “Staten Island” is no. 2 at Fandango, and no. 1 at Spectrum.
Also showing traction is Universal’s “You Should Have Left,” which is third at both Spectrum and FandangoNow (its rental-only status precludes iTunes; Amazon Prime shows less interest). Jon Stewart’s badly reviewed “Irrestistible” placed fourth at FandangoNow. Since it was only released on Friday and their chart is a full week,...

The Sydney Film Festival has revealed a heavily Australian leaning selection as the backbone of its first virtual edition.
Organizers had planned a real-world festival for late June. But that was canceled in March due to the coronavirus outbreak, which caused cinemas to be closed and audiences confined to their home addresses.
More recently, the festival organizers saw that they could make use of some of their selection and preparatory work to come up with an online festival instead. Announced on May 3, the online edition will run June 10 – 21.
The full program, announced Wednesday, comprises 7 feature films, 13 documentaries, and 13 shorts, for a total of 33 titles. That compares with some 300 pieces of content in a normal Sff edition.
The lineup is organized in four programming strands: the Documentary Australia Foundation award for best Australian documentary; the Dendy Awards for Australian short films; Europe! Voices of Women in Film; Screenability, which includes three...

We may be tucked away in isolation at the moment, but that doesn’t stop good quality movies being released, they’re just having to find a different home. One of which is Sea Fever, a film steeped in superstition, set out in the ocean, and starring the likes of Hermione Corfield, Dougray Scott and Connie Nielsen. To celebrate the film’s home entertainment release, we spoke to the director Neasa Hardiman, on Zoom.
We discuss her own superstitions, and given she’s promoting a film that is difficult to define, genre-wise – the frustrating inclination for cinema to be condensed into labels. She also talks about the value of science, and why she fought to keep her central protagonist just as she intended her to be…

There’s not actually a whole lot of horror movies based on a boat at sea for nearly its entire length. Obviously you have things like Jaws or this years Underwater but they are slightly different beasts. As are things like Ghost Ship or even films like Mary or Triangle, which while based on boat have a threat that is also on the boat. In Sea Fever the threat is coming from a parasite in the sea which keeps the crew of the boat stuck on it for the foreseeable future.
Sea Fever has plenty of things going for it other than how unique it feels. The rusty old boat is a great setting and I very much enjoyed how authentic everything felt. The boat did look old and rusty,...

In Neasa Hardiman’s Sea Fever, which played at last year’s Fantastic Fest, Hermione Corfield plays Siobhán, a young marine science student who’s working on her doctorate. But not everything is theory, she has to get her “hands dirty”, try to “make friends” and join the crew of an Irish fishing boat, in order to help them detecting potential anomalies in their catch. Soon enough we get to know the unique characteristics of the crew, which is lead by both Gerard (Dougray Scott) and his wife Freya (Connie Nielsen). For example, they’re for the most part superstitious and consider bad luck the fact that our protagonist is a redhead. It’s also evident that their economic situation is far from ideal. Knowing that coming home without fish...

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea: Hardiman Finds Humanity in the Horror
We’ve seen countless films about bands of isolated humans in claustrophobic confines with some terrible monster or entity killing them off, with seminal titans like Ridley Scott’s Alien (1979), itself a riff on Agatha Christie’s Ten Little Indians, and John Carpenter’s The Thing (1981), a remake, as the standards which all predecessors are often (unfavorably) compared to.
Director Neasa Hardiman extends the conversation with her sophomore film Sea Fever, which earns comparisons to both those classic titles and adds a timely, evidence-based spin to her tale of a crew accosted by a creature of unknown origin aboard an Irish fishing vessel.…...

The time is always right for a creature movie. In good times it's fun to get cozy with a loved one and get a little frightened together. In bad times, it's reassuring to see people working together to defeat a common evil, real or perceived. The most effective of these are the stories that focus on the individuals, their motivation and how the decisions they make affect them and the outside world.
Multi-disciplinary writer/direct Neasa Hardiman's feature film debut Sea Fever is one of these. The movie stars Hermione Corfield as Siobhán, a smart and solitary marine biology student who as part of her studies, finds herself cooped up on a fishing boat with a tight-knit crew for an entire week.

“Alien, but on a ship in the high seas” — for some folks, that description alone is enough to have them rolling their eyes and ready to dismiss a project for being too formulaic, too reductive. For others, it’s the perfect logline to get them salivating, Pavlovian-doggy style. (Remember, Ridley Scott’s classic was just “a haunted house movie in space.”) The good news is that Sea Fever, the Irish genre exercise that earned this concise comparison after it premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last year, should please...

Review by Matthew Lowery
Stories about aquatic terrors are certainly nothing new, dating back to the ancient Greek legend of the Hydra. Authors like H.P. Lovecraft, Jules Verne, and Herman Melville became famous for writing such tales about underwater monsters. In films, there have been tons about undersea creatures terrorizing people, most famously being Spielberg’s 1975 classic, Jaws. However, after the release of 1979’s Alien, people were more focused on outer space terrors than those from the depths. Around the late 1980s, there was a string of underwater creature films released, including The Abyss, Leviathan, and Deepstar Six. Most recently, we had the surprisingly effective deep-sea thriller, Underwater, and now we have another one straight from Ireland. This time, it’s from writer-director Neasa Hardiman, who previously directed TV shows like Happy Valley, The Inhumans, and Jessica Jones.

A parasitic infection plagues a fishing boat in a low-budget Irish B-movie that provides modest entertainment before a damp ending
There’s going to be an understandable portion of audiences who will instantly reject the mere idea of watching the low-budget sci-fi horror Sea Fever, its gloopy tale of a deadly infection proving to be familiar, if fantastical, territory for this very moment. But beneath the shuddering use of words like “quarantine” lives a solid, slithering little B-movie, one that openly cribs from the blueprints of Alien and The Thing but does so with just about enough skill to warrant a midnight viewing, if not quite enough to justify itself at any other time of the day.

Writer/director Neasa Hardiman’s Sea Fever had enjoyed a successful festival run throughout 2019, but she had no idea just how topical her tale of aquatic horror would become this year back when she was originally making the film. Sea Fever centers around a marine biology student named Siobhán (played by Hermione Corfield), who is tasked with traveling on a fishing trawler, but quickly finds herself out of place alongside the rest of the ship’s crew. As they travel into unchartered waters, a biological entity takes hold of the vessel, infecting the unsuspecting passengers, and it’s up to Siobhán to figure out just what exactly they’re dealing with before it’s too late for everyone aboard.
Daily Dead recently had the opportunity to speak with Hardiman about her approach to the story of Sea Fever, and during our interview, she discussed exploring the themes of taking responsibility for our communities,...

Never before has the idea of an horror/eco-thriller centered on a parasite been scarier. Hell, just leaving your house can feel like entering a fright flick. So, Sea Fever is either coming this week at the best possible, or worst possible, time. Luckily, if this sort of title interests you, it’s a quality film, offering up a familiar, though well crafted, take on a small group fighting for survival against an unknown entity. Coming to On Demand platforms at the end of the week, it will certainly hit the spot if you’re looking for a genre effort to unsettle you, especially one of this sort. The film is a mix of horror and thriller, with some science fiction thrown in for good measure. For the grizzled crew of a trawler out on the seas west of Ireland, the arrival of Siobhan (Hermione Corfield) is greeted with indifference,...

Well, a lot has happened since our last monthly preview. The complete shutdown of film exhibition as we know it due to curb the spread of coronavirus resulted in the delay of numerous films and many others to move up their digital release. So, while we’re not getting Martin Eden, Saint Maud, Promising Young Woman, and No Time to Die, among others, there are still a handful of recommended new releases that will be arriving digitally this month.

World premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival last fall, Irish director Neasa Hardiman’s creature feature Sea Fever is an intriguing tale of mayhem in the ocean. Following a marine biology student who is aboard a fishing ship when a mysterious parasite makes its way into the cabin, the first trailer has now arrived ahead of a release early next month.
Jared Mobarak said in his Tiff review, “The way the suspense unfolds reminded me of Danny Boyle’s Sunshine—subtler and without the high octane finale. A problem arises and everyone takes it lightly (save one) even after irrefutable evidence says they shouldn’t. The sea fever is somehow so prevalent a possibility that the smallest shred of deniability leads Gerard and Freya to chalk things up to paranoia instead. It’s interesting that Hardiman keeps this line of uncertainty going well after we see what the creature...
