Ready for growing hair, sprouting teeth, and howling at the moon that is a Werewolf horror movie?
Director Sean Ellis’ gothic thriller The Cursed will be released in theaters on February 18, 2022. Written and helmed by Sean Ellis, The Cursed stars Boyd Holbrook, Kelly Reilly and Alistair Petrie in a reimagining of the werewolf legend.
Ellis said: “The Cursed was born from the desire to reimagine and update the Werewolf legend for a modern day audience. I wanted to play on the known folklore of the legend and give it a fresh approach to the cliched story devices that have been copied from the original 1941 film, The Wolf Man.”
In the late 1800s, a once-peaceful remote country village is under attack—but by who or what, no one knows. Villagers spread rumors of a cursed land, supernatural forces, and even demonic creatures, as the disappearances and killings continue. Pathologist John McBride arrives to investigate the danger,...

The film from writer-director Sean Ellis, formerly titled Eight for Silver, is a reimagining of the werewolf legend for a modern-day audience, which made its world premiere at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival. It picks up in the late 1800s and watches as a once-peaceful remote country village comes under attack—by who or what, no one knows.

I have a hard time believing that Jean-Claude Van Damme and Vinnie Jones are the world’s best assassins who just happens to be rivals. As movie-o-matic plots are wont to go, they of course are forced to form an unlikely alliance in order to accomplish the same goal: in this case, kill some guy who is working with the DEA. Stupid DEA, always going around working with bad people. When will they learn? Anyhoo. The movie will be called “Weapon”, and will be directed by Russell Mulcahy of “Highlander” fame. THR says Jones’ character (Variety has him listed as Derek Chase) will be a master sharpshooter, while Van Damme’s Jack Conway will be skilled with a knife. What, no elaborate kicking M.O. for Van Damme? Blasphemy! Alison Semenza and Todd Moyer will produce the film for their Flagship Films. Van Damme is currently working on a string of projects,...
