Anna Gunn in Christmas Cabin Revenge Thriller 'The Apology' Trailer

The Apology Trailer

"If it's not revenge, what… would you want?" RLJE Films has revealed the official trailer for a thriller titled The Apology, arriving in the middle of December to watch. It looks creepy! Not quite horror, but certainly unsettling for many different reasons. Twenty years after the disappearance of her daughter, a recovering alcoholic is preparing to host her small family's Christmas celebration when her estranged ex-bother-in-law arrives unannounced, bearing nostalgic gifts and a heavy secret. Soon, Darlene finds herself caught between reason and ruthless instinct. What will she do? Watch to find out. This is another sneaky trailer that cleverly sets up the premise just before it cuts before the title. Nice to see a trailer that doesn't show the whole film! The Apology stars Anna Gunn, Linus Roache, Holland Bailey, and Janeane Garofalo. Take a look.

Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Alison Star Locke's The Apology, direct from RLJE's YouTube:

Twenty years after the disappearance of her daughter, recovering alcoholic Darlene Hagen (Anna Gunn) is preparing to host her family's Christmas celebration with her best friend Gretchen (Janeane Garofalo). Late Christmas Eve, Darlene's estranged ex-brother-in-law, Jack (Linus Roache) arrives unannounced, bearing nostalgic gifts and a heavy secret. Soon, Darlene finds herself caught between reason and ruthless instinct. Trapped together by a dangerous storm, a battle of wits escalates to a violent game of revenge. The Apology is both written and directed by newcomer filmmaker Alison Star Locke, making her feature directorial debut after one other short film previously. It's produced by Stacy Jorgensen, Kim Sherman, and Lisa Whalen. This hasn't premiered at any festivals or elsewhere, as far as we know. RLJE will release The Apology in select US theaters + streaming on AMC+ starting December 16th, 2022 in the holiday season.

Blumhouse is Making a ‘Fantasy Island’ Movie

Image
The frightmasters at Blumhouse have come up with their most terrifying idea yet! They’re developing…*checks notes*…a  Fantasy Island movie! Yes, that’s right – a film based on the 1970s Aaron Spelling series about an island where all your dreams can come true…for a price.  Jeff Wadlow , who directed Blumhouse’s  Truth or Dare , will helm the TV-to-film adaptation. Even if you’ve never seen a single episode of  Fantasy Island , I’m betting you’re familiar with it. It was a brightly-lit ’70s-’80s TV show that featured Ricardo Montalbán as a mysterious man in a white suit, and Hervé Villechaize as his sidekick who was famous for yelling, “The plane! The plane!” Here are the rather whimsical opening credits. Fantasy Island According to Deadline , the folks at Blumhouse took one look at this and said, “We’re making that a movie.”  Truth or Dare director Jeff Wadlow will be behind the camera, and he’ll also co-write the film with his  Truth or Dare writers  Chris Roach and Jillian

The 14 Most Dangerous Mission: Impossible Stunts, Ranked Worst To Best

Image
"Mission: Impossible" premiered on CBS in 1966 as an upside down "Topkapi" riff that left the conniving to the good guys. For creator Bruce Geller, expertise was the point. Characters and plots were left blank and blurry, forcing viewers to join the Impossible Missions Force or be left in the high-tech dust. Fun only got in the way; Geller famously scolded star Peter Graves for smiling at the end of an episode. In 1996, director Brian De Palma reinvented the series as a star vehicle for Tom Cruise, and it's nothing but fun. The second film even includes a joke about how its star can't stop smiling. The fuse burns brighter than ever and expertise remains the native tongue, but "Mission: Impossible" has carved a new legacy in theaters -- mainly, its reputation for showing off knuckle-whitening, insurance-defying stunts, often performed by Cruise himself. Factoring in franchise importance and danger inherent, the following 14 examples are the best
