Horror Weekly News: Bird Box Barcelona releasing in July. Two popular shows cancelled.

Would you risk seeing…this movie?

After the success of Bird Box, a sequel was announced which then turned into a Spanish-language spinoff.

Now Bird Box was based on a novel that was written by Josh Malerman. There were rumours that the sequel to the movie Bird Box would be based on MALORIE, the sequel to the novel.

The novel followed Malorie and her kids after they arrive at the school for the blind and took shelter there. Years pass, and the kids are now teens. Malorie learns of another commnunity of survivors and that her own parents may be a part of it.

The creatures who have caused havoc have now mutated and may be able to pass on the madness through touch.

Although the author had confirmed that a movie on his book Malorie was in the works, there have been no updates on it so far.

But the spinoff, titled Bird Box Barcelona, is all set to release this year.

The movie is supposed to take place in the same universe and timeline as Bird Box, but in Barcelona. That means, while Malorie was dealing with the chaos in her city, on the other side, there were other people who were struggling with this madness as well.

The movie follows Sebastian and his daughter Sophia as they try to survive this dystopian world.

The movie stars Mario Casas and Naila Schuberth.

BIRD BOX BARCELONA will release on Netflix on July 14th.

In other news…

This is the season to find out if your favorite show is getting a renewal or a cut. Most shows have survived even after getting an axe because another network will pick it up.

Two horror/thriller shows have gotten the axe.

Netflix’s Lockwood & Co. Has been cancelled after one season. On the other side, CW cancelled The Winchesters after one season, too.

Lockwood & Co was described as a show for teens and the scares were kept to a limit. The story was about two teenage boys who have a startup and are joined by a gifted girl.

The Winchesters was a prequel to the long-running, successful show SUPERNATURAL. The story was about Dean and Sam’s father, John who teams up with Mary and saves the world.

Although these two shows had a fan following and received positively by critics, they were still canceled.

Hopefully, another network will save the day?

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!

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
