Writer/director Eric England made a splash earlier this year with Madison County and it looks like his 2013 will be busy as well with the release of Contracted and his installment in Chiller TV’s anthology “Chilling Visions: 5 Senses of Fear.”

Also coming next year, pending distribution, is Roadside, a single location thriller that “Finds Dan Summers and his pregnant wife, Mindy, in a fight for their lives when they are held hostage in their car by an unseen gunman on the side of a desolate mountain road.” Ace Marrero, Katie Stegeman, Alan Pietruszewski, Lionel D. Carson and Jack Curenton all star.

And today sees the release of the trailer, which sort of has a Phone Booth vibe but with some stalk and slash. Head inside to check it out! READ MORE

We’ve got two new looks at the upcoming “Treehouse of Horror XXIII” episode of “The Simpsons” airing Sunday, Oct. 7 (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT). The first is a virtual tour of the episode while the second is more of a traditional trailer.

“Destined to be yet another classic Halloween-themed episode of THE SIMPSONS, in the opener of the 23rd annual “Treehouse of Horror,” we go back to ancient times when a Mayan Homer and Marge are witnesses to the prediction by ancient calendar makers that 2012 will be the end of the world. In “The Greatest Story Ever Holed,” the first of three spine-chilling stories, the Springfield Subatomic Supercollider creates a black hole that terrorizes the city, sucking up everything in its path. Then, in “UNnormal Activity” the Simpsons install cameras all over the house when things start to go bump in the night and Marge discovers it may have to do with an unholy pact she made some years prior. In the final thrilling tale, “Bart & Homer’s Excellent Adventure,” Bart travels to 1974 to buy a comic book at cover price but inadvertently disrupts Homer and Marge’s courtship, leading Marge to end up with Artie Ziff (guest voice Jon Lovitz) in the all-new “Treehouse of Horror XXIII” episode of THE SIMPSONS airing Sunday, Oct. 7 (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (SI-2317) (TV-PG D, L, S, V)”

Voice Cast includes: Dan Castellaneta as Homer Simpson; Julie Kavner as Marge Simpson; Nancy Cartwright as Bart Simpson and Nelson; Yeardley Smith as Lisa Simpson; Harry Shearer as Skinner; Pamela Hayden as Milhouse and Jimbo; Tress MacNeille as Dolph. Head inside for the videos! READ MORE

The first TV Spot has begun airing for Paranormal Activity 4 that shares quite a few scares from the film (assuming they’re not cut from the “workprint” before the film’s final release).

This fourth film from creator/producer Oren Peli utilizes modern technology as it follows a family that lives across the street from a group of witches.

In theaters October 19, Catfish duo Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman, who helmed the third film, direct once again. READ MORE

From Buried director Rodrigo Cortes comes Red Lights, the Cillian Murphy, Sigourney Weaver, Elizabeth Olsen, Toby Jones and Robert De Niro starrer arriving on DVD + Digital Copy & Blu-ray October 2. Below we’ve landed an exclusive interview featurette where Cortes speaks on flipping the beliefs of the characters mid-film.

“Veteran paranormal researchers Dr. Margaret Matheson (Sigourney Weaver) and Tom Buckley (Cillian Murphy) debunk fraudulent claims of ghost whispering, faith healing and other psychic phenomena by detecting what Matheson calls “red lights,” the subtle tricks behind every staged supernatural occurrence. But when the legendary blind psychic Simon Silver (Robert De Niro) comes out of retirement after 30 years, his once-fearless adversary.

Matheson warns Buckley to back off, fearing reprisal from the powerful Silver. Determined to discredit Silver, Buckley and his star student (Elizabeth Olsen) use every tool at their disposal to uncover the truth behind the charismatic, spoon-bending, mind reader. But Buckley is forced to reexamine his own core beliefs as his quest builds to a mind-blowing conclusion in this taut psychological thriller from award-winning writer and director Rodrigo Cortés (Buried).” READ MORE

Every year Hatchet, Hatchet II and Frozen director Adam Green directs a new horror short in the spirit of Halloween. This year’s short stars David Moore (Avatar) and Kane Hodder (as Michael Myers!) in “DRIVING LESSONS – Halloween 1978 Deleted Scene”.

“In John Carpenter’s 1978 classic Halloween, Michael Myers was suddenly able to drive a car after having sat in a sanitarium staring at the wall since childhood. While the filmmakers addressed this slight plot hole briefly in the original movie with a throw away line by Donald Pleasance (“Maybe someone around here gave him lessons”), we here at ArieScope Pictures were fortunate enough to track down a never-before-seen deleted scene from HALLOWEEN that thoroughly explains what really happened.

“Our 14th annual Halloween Short Film parodies our favorite slasher film of all time and stars Joel David Moore and Kane Hodder (Hatchet 1-3, Friday the 13th 7-10) as “Michael Myers”.” READ MORE
