Horror Weekly News: Renfield Trailer Drop. Wednesday season 2 confirmed!

 You might just want to be careful who you invite into your homes, restaurants, support meetings, etc. 

Not everyone is a normal human being. 

Renfield has been in the news for a long time mostly because Nicolas Cage is in it, and also Nicholas Hoult, but because the movie is another retelling of Dracula. In comedic form this time. 

In the trailer that dropped this week, we see Renfield barge into a support group meeting. He does want to talk about a toxic relationship, but it is his boss that he can’t deal with anymore. 

We learn that Renfield has powers too, when he ingests insects. During a hold-up at a restaurant, he ingests an insect and takes down the criminals, with a decorative serving platter no less. That is also when he meets a cop called Rebecca with whom he must get into a relationship because we see them together in a house, both in plain clothes. 

While Renfield goes on to narrate his miserable experience, the rest of the members offer support and term his boss as narcissistic. That is when his boss appears and opens the door. 

The group leader invites him in, ignoring Renfield’s hand gestures which are clearly warning him not to invite him. 

In comes, Nicolas Cage, pretty much covered in jewels. 

The moment he levitates and opens his mouth to reveal his pointy teeth, that is when everyone at the meeting realizes what Renfield is actually dealing with. 

Will Renfield be able to get rid of Dracula from his boss or finally learn to accept his boss’ eccentricity and large appetite? 

We will find out when the movie releases on April 14th. This looks like it could be a fun movie to watch. 

 

 In other news…

No surprises here, WEDNESDAY returns to Netflix with Season 2. Of course, no date has been set yet, but it could very well come out this year. 

WEDNESDAY is one of Netflix’s successful shows, something the streaming giant desperately needed after losing subscribers and backing shows that received negative feedback. 

After Mike Flannagan signed a deal with Amazon, it was obvious that Netflix would no longer have interesting horror shows in its library. 

There were talks that WEDNESDAY could be moving to Amazon too but Netflix was clearly not going to let one of its hit shows leave its library now, was it?

So the announcement has been made and for now at least, WEDNESDAY will return to Netflix with a second season.
