The terror is real: Blumhouse's 'Imaginary' Horror About a Scary Teddy Bear is now in cinemas

He’s not imaginary, and he’s not your friend. Blumhouse’s  Imaginary hits theaters this weekend.

From Blumhouse, the genre-defining masterminds behind Five Nights at Freddy’s and M3GAN, comes an original horror that taps into the innocence of imaginary friends – and begs the question: Are they really figments of childhood imagination or is something more terrifying lying just beneath?

When Jessica (DeWanda Wise) moves back into her childhood home with her family, her youngest stepdaughter Alice (Pyper Braun) develops an eerie attachment to a stuffed bear named Chauncey she finds in the basement. Alice starts playing games with Chauncey that begin playful and become increasingly sinister.

As Alice’s behavior becomes more and more concerning, Jessica intervenes only to realize Chauncey is much more than the stuffed toy bear she believed him to be.

Imaginary is directed by Jeff Wadlow, written by Jeff Wadlow & Greg Erb & Jason Oremland and produced by Jason Blum, Jeff Wadlow, p.g.a.

Imaginary stars DeWanda Wise, Tom Payne, Taegen Burns, Pyper Braun, Veronica Falcon and Betty Buckley.

Imaginary is Wadlow’s third collaboration with Blumhouse, including the box office hit Truth or Dare. “We have a lot of trust in Jeff’s ability,” says producer Jason Blum. “So, when he came to us with the idea behind the film, we were excited to explore his imaginary world. Jeff brings a unique vision and storytelling expertise to every project he's involved in, and his passion for the horror genre shines through in IMAGINARY. Jeff has a strong understanding of what makes horror films resonate with audiences, and his creative approach to blending psychological horror with childhood themes is what made us so enthusiastic about this project. His ability to craft compelling characters and build tension is exceptional.”

The monsters and specters haunting Jessica and her new family are the creation of the award-winning animatronic and practical effects house Spectral Motion. The company created the story’s creatures — Chauncey, and the fabrications and costume for a fearsome giant Spider, the shadowy Entity, and Chauncey’s monstrous alter ego, Bear Beast.

According to creature effects supervisor Mark Viniello, Spectral Motion largely used puppets to bring these terrifying beings to life, which facilitated their interaction with the cast members. Instead of pretending to emote opposite a visual effect that would be added months later, the actors had a tactile “being” to interact with.

Lionsgate and Blumhouse present, a Tower of Babble production.

Prorom will release Imaginary in Hungary and Slovakia (on March 7), Romania and Bulgaria (on March 8), Czech Republic (on March 14).

Liam Neeson in Retribution – in cinemas this weekend!

Liam Neeson is back in cinemas with a new action thriller: Retribution!

Neeson is a bank executive who must find a way to save his and his children’s lives after discovering that someone has placed a bomb under their car. The bomb will activate if they decided to leave the car. The mysterious caller also frames him for the death of his best friend, which makes his situation more complicated.

Retribution is directed by Nimrod Antal (Vacancy, Armored, Predators) from a screenplay written by Christopher Salmanpour (based on the film El Desconocido written by Alberto Marini).

Joining Neeson are Matthew Modine (Stranger Things), Noma Dumezweni (The Little Mermaid), Jack Champion (Avatar: The Way of Water), Lilly Aspell, Embeth Davidtz (Schindler’s List), and Arian Moayed (Succession).

Producers are Andrew Rona, Alex Heineman, Jaume Collet-Serra, and Juan Sola.

Presented with the challenge of leading an action movie that requires intense sequences throughout director Nimród Antal reflects “that was something that was both frightening and exciting at the same time,” Antal adds that he looked to claustrophobic thrillers like Tom Hardy’s Locke, Vincenzo Natali’s sci-fi cult classic Cube and Spanish futuristic socio-horror The Platform for inspiration in how to shoot suspenseful sequences with unique compositions in confined spaces.

The resulting film, Antal says, should feel at once familiar and fresh. “We wanted this movie to add to the library of action films that Liam has made, but also to bring something new to them, something the viewers hadn’t seen. Liam has always been a man with that certain set of skills but in this film, he’s just an everyday guy trying to keep his family alive.” A task made ever harder as the caller’s demands increase in their deadly difficulty and the tension on the Turner family ratchets up and up.

Prorom will release the movie in Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Bulgaria on August, 25.

Sarah Paulson is the mom of your nightmares in the first trailer of RUN

Sarah Paulson (American Horror Story) and Kiera Allen have a unique relationship in the first trailer for the thriller RUN.

We have now received the first trailer for RUN – a new thriller from the visionary director Aneeesh Chaganty, who is well-know for his outstanding work in his first movie Searching.

They say you can never escape a mother's love... but for Chloe, that's not a comfort - it's a threat. There's something unnatural, even sinister about the relationship between Chloe (newcomer Kiera Allen) and her mom, Diane (Sarah Paulson).

Diane has raised her daughter in total isolation, controlling every move she's made since birth, and there are secrets that Chloe's only beginning to grasp.

Only a few knows that 17 years old Kiera Allen is disabled in real life too. She said the followings to Entertainment Weekly:

„I’ve said this before, even if the movie never came out and no one ever saw it, it would still have been a life-changing experience for me to have done it. It was just so incredible to be in that place with so many creative brilliant minds, and to have them put trust in me and to collaborate with me was a really exciting thing.”

Prorom will release RUN in Romania and Hungary on November 20th.
