Horror Weekly News: Five Nights at Freddy's Movie announced. Santa turns killer in Violent Night

 






At last.


After waiting years for a FNAF movie, it is finally happening. For the uninitiated, FNaF stands for the popular videogame Five Nights at Freddy's released in 2014.


The game achieved immense popularity and critical success.


FNaF was about a man getting a job to work as a security officer at a pizzeria called Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.


One night he receives a call from a man who gives him a brief but troubling history about the pizzeria. Turns out that in an incident, a man had lured and killed five children there and then stuffed them into the animatronics.


Rumor has it that the animatronics come to life at night and should they find a human then, they will stuff them into the spare Freddy Fazbear mechanical costume that ends up killing the person.


The man must survive the five nights but by the fourth night the man who has been calling on the phone appears to have been killed as per the abrupt message.


At the end of the game, the new employee is fired.


It was noted that when Nicholas Cage's WILLY'S WONDERLAND was released in 2021, the audience was quick to compare it to the FNaF game although it was obviously not adapted from it.


For now, nothing else about the movie adaptation of FNaF has been revealed except for the fact that it will be a Blumhouse production and that it will release sometime in 2023.


In other news...


Halloween may still be a few weeks away but already we have a new movie coming up for Christmas.


This time criminals beware. It's not Krampus who is going to punish them. It is Santa himself.


Yes, Santa is bringing this year's Season's beatings. No, really. That is a phrase you will get to hear in the movie as per the trailer.


The story is about a group of criminals breaking into an affluent family's house. The little girl has got a present, a walkie-talkie that her father tells her will directly connect her to Santa.


So when the criminals hold the family at gunpoint, the little girl calls Santa and of course he's there.


But don't be deceived by his white beard and colorful dress. He's not the kind of Santa that munches on cookies and milk. He does have cookies but with alcohol.


He has a nice list and naughty list and he does give the naughty people a lump of coal...right on their face.


Toward the end of the trailer, we see Santa covered in blood and armed with a shotgun.


This is going to be one violent Christmas.


VIOLENT NIGHT releases on 2nd December. The movie stars David Harbour and John Leguizamo.

The Limehouse Golem- My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: When Elizabeth's husband is found dead, all fingers point to her. But is it really her or the work of a serial killer? If like me, you’ve read hundreds of mysteries and are enthused about Sherlock Holmes tales, THE LIMEHOUSE GOLEM is actually pretty predictable. Set in the Victorian Era, it promises to instil fear in you. Before Jack the Ripper, there was Golem- such is the tagline and you do want it to be the kind of movie that keeps you guessing until the very end as to the true identity of the killer.   Unlike the Jack the Ripper legend, Golem is easily recognizable in the very first instance the character is introduced.

Delirium (2018)— My take on the movie with spoilers!

PLOT SUMMARY: After leaving the asylum and put in house arrest, Tom begins to believe the house is either haunted or he is hallucinating.  Most times, when we think about criminals, we wonder what could possible have prompted them to fall into a life of crime.

Look Away— my take on the movie with spoilers!

Plot Summary: A bullied girl switches places with her reflection. She soon regrets her decision as people start dying.  What matters most? Looks or confidence? When we see someone for the first time, we do notice their looks, the way they dress. Personality and their ability to initiate and hold a conversation comes second, doesn't it? Imagine meeting someone who is good looking but is dull to the core. Now imagine someone with average looks but is someone you can have fun with or have an intellectual conversation. Which seems more attractive? Look Away takes a very bold stand where appearances are concerned. But also about self-confidence. In the end, the only argument it makes is that one cannot possess both attributes. LOOK AWAY Movie Plot  We are introduced to a timid girl, Maria whose father is a plastic surgeon. Her mother is shown to have no say of her own. She is left to watch her husband ridicule his daughter about not being careful with her looks. Maria has a friend Lily
