Demonic has been around for a while. Director Will Canon shot the film back in February of 2013, but it didn’t score a release date until late July 2014 and then in September, The Weinstein Company and Dimension Films nixed the December 12th release entirely. So when’s the film coming out? A new date has yet to be set, but according to the film’s very first trailer, it’s coming soon.

Demonic stars Frank Grillo as a detective and Maria Bello as a psychologist, and follows what happens when the pair investigates a brutal massacre inside an abandoned home that took the lives of five college students. Hit the jump to check out the first Demonic trailer. The film also stars Cody Horn, Dustin Milligan, Megan Park, Scott Mechlowicz and Aaron Yoo, and is produced by James Wan.

You’d think a film that keeps getting delayed wouldn’t look too promising, but this trailer is actually pretty creepy. Sure, it’s loaded with genre tropes and predictable jump scares, but pairing the past massacre with the present investigation puts a somewhat fresh spin on it. Plus, how can you go wrong with this cast? Grillo and Bello always deliver and the group of college kids isn’t just a mash-up of random, hot rising talent. They’re all accomplished actors. It’s hard not to have doubts considering what the movie went through, but it certainly seems like there’s a chance Demonic could be a quality haunted house film.

It’s hard not to be intrigued by Romain Basset’s Horsehead, which looks to be from the Lords of Salem school of filmmaking. We’re happy to report that Artsploitation has acquired the film, planning a VOD, DVD, and limited theatrical release for later this year.

Fievre (or Fever in English) is an English-speaking French horror film, and it’s Basset’s feature film directorial debut. The film is being brought to us by Horsehead Pictures. It was co-written by Basset and Karim Ch?rigu?ne and stars legendary Catriona MacColl (Lucio Fulci’s muse), Franco-Australian revelation Lilly-Fleur Pointeaux, famous English singer and actor Murray Head (Say It Ain’t So, One Night in Bangkok), French model and actor Fu’ad A?t Aattou (The Last Mistress), and French horror icon Philippe Nahon (I Stand Alone, High Tension).

Synopsis:
Jessica has never dreamed in her life but has had regular nightmares, the meanings of which have escaped her. This peculiarity has led her to conduct studies specializing in the psychophysiology of dreams and to follow a therapy with Sean, her mentor and boyfriend, to try to understand the origins of her nightmares.

Following the death of her maternal grandmother, whom she scarcely knew, Jessica must return reluctantly to the family home. Upon her arrival, she discovers that her late grandmother is resting in the adjoining room to her own during the wake. After a rough first night made restless by a strange nightmare in which she meets her dead grandmother, Jessica suddenly becomes ill. Stuck in her bed with a high fever, the young woman decides to use her lethargic state to experience lucid dreams and thus try to take control of her nightmares. Henceforth, on the advice of Sean, Jessica needs to breathe a little bit of ether when a crisis arises to sink deeper into the other world.

UNFRIENDED Trailer and Poster Take Laptop Horror to Bloody New Extremes

Read more at http://collider.com/unfriended-trailer-poster/#QstSDYAdd46hPCFz.99

I’m very, very surprised that I hadn’t heard of Unfriended until now. Formerly titled Cybernatural, this Timur Bekmambetov-created and produced thriller goes down in real-time from the point-of-view of a teen’s computer. Honestly, as soon as the trailer started I was fa little bit nervous – but then I kept watching and was pretty much won over. We’ve seen similar stuff tackled in The Den and Open Windows, but Unfriended seems like it takes the concept even further than those two films did. It actually looks really clever, and the blender moment doesn’t hurt matters either. Ambitious stuff, color me impressed.
Hit the jump for the Unfriended trailer and poster. Bekmambetov produced the film alongside Jason Blum and Nelson Greaves. It was directed by Levan Gabriadze from a script by Greaves. It stars Shelley Hennig, Moses Jacob Storm, Renee Olstead, Will Peltz, Jacob Wysocki, Courtney Halverson, Heather Sossaman and hits theaters on April 17th, 2015.
