Overview of Tarot’s Disappointing Box Office Debut The recent release of Tarot, despite its intriguing premise and connection to popular horror tropes, experienced a lackluster performance at the global box office.

How Fans and Critics Reacted to Tarot The film’s storytelling style and character development fell short of engaging viewers effectively, reflecting in its critical reception and box office numbers. With a PG-13 rating aiming for broader appeal, the movie shied away from more intense horror elements, which could

It is, generally speaking, ill-advised to go into creepy basements in rented mansions. It is also not a good idea to play with the hand-painted, sinister tarot cards found in the aforementioned basement. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what the group of college pals in Tarot do.
Based on the 1992 YA novel Horrorscope, co-directors Spenser Cohen and Anna Halberg’s debut feature is horror-by-numbers, with characters that scarcely deserve (or get) a name. Instead, they are introduced through their horoscope-assigned personalities, when they convince resident astrology girl Haley to read their tarot. Almost immediately, the malevolent force attached to the tarot cards starts picking them off, matching their deaths to the specific tarot cards they were dealt.
Walks the line between goofy and gruesome.

Jacob Batalon shines amid script challenges A critic noted that Jacob Batalon, a part of the star cast in Tarot, gives an earnest performance but struggles due to a weak script and lackluster dialogue delivery.

There has been much pessimism floating around regarding this past weekend's box office. I myself have tossed some of that pessimism into the void. Much of that has to do with the fact that the summer movie season kicked off with "The Fall Guy" opening to a wildly disappointing $28.5 million, marking the worst start to summer in more than 20 years. Far less ink has been spilled regarding Sony's new horror movie "Tarot," which also opened over the weekend and snuck into the top five on the domestic charts with a $6.5 million debut. At first glance, it's not a good look for a movie from a major studio opening on more than 3,100 screens across North America. However, this might actually end up being a sneaky little hit.
"Tarot" also pulled in $3.7 million internationally, giving it a $10.2 million global start. Again, that number isn't going to break any records. It's not...

Filmmakers often say that they have to personalize their work. After all, they painstakingly devote at least two years of their lives to bring a film to fruition, but in the case of Tarot co-directors Spenser Cohen and Anna Halberg, they turned what would normally be a genre exercise into something from the heart.
Tarot — which serves as the writer-directors’ feature directorial debut — is a supernatural horror film involving a group of college friends who, during a weekend getaway, crack open a cursed deck of tarot cards to learn their ominous horoscopes. The tarot card reading is reluctantly led by Harriet Slater’s Haley, who, like Halberg, is a Minnesota native, and shortly after the friend group returns to their Boston-area university, all hell breaks loose as each individual reading comes true in lethal fashion.

A Pisces, a Taurus, a Capricorn, a Leo, a Virgo, and an Aquarius walk into a rented mansion for their Libra friend’s birthday party. The seven college kids soon run out of booze, go poking around in places they shouldn’t, and summon a fate worse than death when they find a mysterious deck of cards harboring a hidden evil. Title card: “Tarot.” All signs… point to yikes.
Written and directed by Spenser Cohen and Anna Halberg, Screen Gems’ latest scary movie is willfully ridiculous. It’s also the most original take on the haunted party game since last year’s well-loved “Talk to Me” with its own franchising potential as a supernatural series.

If you’ve ever fumbled through a dusty old deck of tarot cards, hoping they’d reveal something about your future, Tarot (2024) might just make you think twice before you shuffle again. This horror flick, helmed by first-timers Spenser Cohen and Anna Halberg, deals a hand that’s both terrifying and delightfully over-the-top. The film taps into the old-school charm of supernatural slashers, where a group of friends find themselves in a deadly game of cosmic consequences.

The premise of Tarot hinges on a birthday bash gone terribly wrong in a creepy Catskills mansion. Cue the horror movie checklist: a group of college friends, a recently-ended relationship stirring the pot, and, of course, a mysterious item unearthed in the least welcoming part of the house.

The Fall Guy is kicking off summer movie season with a No. 1 debut at the box office this weekend, but it’s coming in below initial tracking. After earning $10.4 million on Friday, the feature is now projected to open to $28 million for the weekend, down from earlier tracking that had it in the $30-$35 million range.
The film earned an A- CinemaScore from audiences, so it’s possible word of mouth could help the movie make up ground in the coming weeks. The Fall Guy is said to have a net budget of $130 million when accounting for incentives for shooting in Australia. Overseas, it is projected to take in another $25.8 million over the weekend, which would bring its global haul to $65.4 million. (It already opened in some markets last week.)

Before he returns to the role of Spider-Man’s best friend, “Guy in the Chair” and emergency sorcerer, Jacob Batalon is deepening his relationship with Sony Pictures. Today, Batalon is back on the big screen in the studio’s supernatural horror film, Tarot. Written and directed by Anna Halberg and Spenser Cohen, Tarot chronicles seven college friends whose individual tarot card readings come to life in deadly fashion. Batalon plays Paxton, the impulsive life of the party within his friend group.
Tarot partially utilizes Batalon as comic relief, a role that he’s perfected since breaking out in Jon Watts’ Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017), but the film also allowed him to play afraid, something young actors often cite as being the most difficult emotion to play given the mechanics of a film set.

If we're comparing failed Final Destination rehashes, Tarot is up there with the worst. Writers and directors Spenser Cohen and Anna Halberg aim for PG-13 sleepover-branded chills in Tarot, but sell the entire experience abysmally short. Their story about a cursed tarot deck is ludicrously underwritten and dopey, discarding established in-universe rationale mere minutes after cement dries. It's a movie that sequences events like they're mistakenly out of order, with Cohen and Halberg treating the audience like they’ve never seen a horror movie before — or maybe they’re praying we haven’t
In the film, stereotypical college students rent the equivalent of Scrooge McDuck's mansion on Airbnb for one of their birthdays. When the last beer can pops open, partiers panic and search the premises for hidden alcohol, which leads them into a musty once-locked basement filled with astrological artifacts — one being a hand-drawn deck of tarot cards in an engraved container.

A deck full of terror awaits in the new Screen Gems horror movie Tarot, which features a variety of new supernatural entities designed by concept artist Trevor Henderson.
Tarot, in theaters now, is written and directed by Spenser Cohen & Anna Halberg, very loosely based on a novel by Nicholas Adams.
The plot sees a group of friends unleashing a curse when they decide to play with a mysterious box of tarot cards. One by one, they come face to face with their fate and end up in a race against death to escape the future foretold in their readings.
Trevor Henderson designed the creature concept art, which was transformed into the cursed tarot deck by artist Richard Wells. The supernatural Tarot entities were then brought to life on screen by special effects and creature effects designer Dan Martin (Possessor, Infinity Pool). Bloody Disgusting spoke with Henderson about designing the entities for Tarot,...

Set in a world where every door creaks and there isn’t a single well-lit location, “Tarot” is little more than a clearinghouse of horror clichés.
Co-written, directed and executive produced by Spenser Cohen and Anna Halberg (the podcast series “Classified”), the supernatural thriller repeatedly leverages the genre’s laziest mood-setting and suspense-building devices to keep its audience on the edge of their seats. But even featuring a moderately charming ensemble led by “Spider-Man: Homecoming” breakout Jacob Batalon, the film’s PG-13 rating — and lack of virtually any characters other than its doomed protagonists — severely limits the efficacy of those techniques and tropes even when they’re deployed skillfully.
Batalon plays Paxton, the wisecracker among a studiously diverse college-age friend group that rents a remote mansion to celebrate the birthday of Elise (Larsen Thompson). Scouring their rental for booze, the group foolishly breaks into a room marked “Keep Out,” where...

Writers/Directors Spenser Cohen & Anna Halberg keep it simple with the PG-13 horror movie Tarot. Instead of a cold open to hook audiences on the horror, Tarot launches straight into introducing the group of seven friends partaking in a party weekend at an isolated manor.
It’s there that they dabble with things they shouldn’t, setting in motion a curse that will pick them off one by one, slasher style. With an equal group of monsters to match, Tarot has the makings of a breezy gateway horror movie perfect for sleepovers, though it’s undermined by surface-level characters and storytelling.
The moment the beer runs dry, forcing the friends to seek entertainment elsewhere, birthday girl Elise (Larsen Thompson) insists that Haley (Harriet Slater) puts her tarot knowledge to good use when they find a mysterious deck within the house. Haley warns that it’s extremely bad luck to borrow...

An evil curse gets awakened in Screen Gems horror movie Tarot when a group of friends recklessly ignore a sacred rule: never use someone else’s deck. Writers/Directors Spenser Cohen & Anna Halberg unleash a variety of Tarot card-inspired entities on the group through practical effects, and create an unexpected connection to Insidious along the way.
The film comes exclusively to movie theaters on May 3, 2024.
Bloody Disgusting spoke with Cohen and Halberg ahead of Tarot‘s release, where the pair shared more about the film’s practical effects-driven horrors and revealed how Tarot drew from Insidious in a specific way.
To start, though, the filmmakers reveal just how closely their horror movie sticks to the source novel Horrorscope by Nicholas Adams. The short answer is, well, it doesn’t at all!

In Tarot, “When a group of friends recklessly violates the sacred rule of Tarot readings – never use someone else’s deck – they unknowingly unleash an unspeakable evil trapped within the cursed cards. One by one, they come face to face with fate and end up in a race against death to escape the future foretold in their readings.”
The film, which had previously been listed under the title Horrorscope, comes exclusively to movie theaters on May 10, 2024.
Tarot is written and directed by Spenser Cohen & Anna Halberg. Larsen Thompson, Harriet Slater, Adain Bradley, Avantika and Jacob Batalon star.

Given how many horror movies exist to warn young 'uns about the dangerous of dabbling with cursed objects — heck, we had Talk To Me just last year — it's a wonder so many of them still get into supernatural scrapes. But here we go again, with another group finding fun in something they shouldn't. The trailer for Tarot offers plenty for you to scream at…
Written and directed by Spenser Cohen and Anna Halberg, Tarot feels like a crossbreed (nightbreed?) of the Philippou brothers' handy thriller and Final Destination.
The official synopsis reads thus: "When a group of friends recklessly violates the sacred rule of Tarot readings — never use someone else’s deck – they unknowingly unleash an unspeakable evil trapped within the cursed cards.

Sony Pictures has released a brand new trailer for an upcoming horror flick titled "Tarot." This one was originally going under the title "Horrorscope," but the powers that be decided to be a little more straightforward about what's happening here. Yes, it's about deadly tarot cards and, based on the trailer, it looks very much like what one might expect from a horror movie about deadly tarot cards. Check it out for yourself above.
The footage doesn't give away too much by way of story specifics. It focuses more on the gimmick, which is that this possessed tarot card deck unleashes various deadly beings on its unsuspecting victims. It is also pretty heavy on the jump scares for those who are into that sort of thing. It appears to be cut from the same cloth as 2014's "Ouija." Whether or not that's a good or a bad thing is up...

Sony Pictures UK just dropped the first look at their new horror flick, ‘Tarot’, and it’s as eerie as it gets. The movie, brought to life by Spenser Cohen and Anna Halberg, dives into a chilling tale where a bunch of teens face deadly consequences after toying with Tarot card readings. The trailer gives us a sneak peek into the horror that awaits, painting a grim picture of their fate.
In ‘Tarot’, we meet a group of friends who ignore a crucial Tarot reading rule: never use a deck that’s not yours. They soon find themselves entangled in a nightmare, as an evil force from the cursed cards starts haunting them. The trailer hints at a desperate struggle to dodge the grim futures laid out in their readings.
The movie stars Jacob Batalon, Harriet Slater, Avantika, and Adain Bradley. While they might not be household names, their previous work speaks volumes.

We’ve been tracking the progress of a Sony / Screen Gems horror movie called Horrorscope for a while now. Last month, it was announced that the movie had been given a May 10th theatrical release date. Today, with the release date still a few months away, a trailer for the film has arrived online… and this trailer reveals that Horrorscope has undergone a title change. It’s now known as Tarot! You can watch the trailer in the embed above.
Best known for playing Peter Parker’s best friend Ned in the recent Spider-Man movies, Jacob Batalon plays the title character in the horror comedy Syfy / Hulu / Amazon series Reginald the Vampire, and also has a lead role in Tarot. He’s joined in the cast by Avantika (Mean Girls), Alana Boden (I Am Elizabeth Smart), Adain Bradley (Wrong Turn: The Foundation), Humberly González (Ginny & Georgia), Wolfgang Novogratz (The Last Summer...

Sinister cards, death, teenagers. That’s all you need to know about the new horror film Tarot before watching the trailer here.
A group of teens begin dying mysteriously after taking part in a sinister game. Sound familiar? This could easily describe mutliple films such as Ouija, Truth Or Dare or Stay Alive.
In this case, though, we’re talking about Tarot, which is aiming to be 2024’s big horror sensation.
Take a look at the Tarot trailer.
If the name Tarot doesn’t ring a bell, not to worry. The film was going by the name Horrorscope until recently.
Here’s the official synopsis: “When a group of friends recklessly violates the sacred rule of Tarot readings – never use someone else’s deck – they unknowingly unleash an unspeakable evil trapped within the cursed cards. One by one, they come face to face with fate and end up in a...

This one looks like a fairly generic teen horror movie, but the concept could at least allow for a fun array of supernatural entities – several of which are glimpsed in this first trailer.
Update: Artist Trevor Henderson has revealed that he designed the monsters for this movie! Henderson tweets, “I was asked to be the sole designer of the eight different monsters in this movie!!” He also notes, “All of my favourites of the designs are only hinted at.”

Earlier this year, Sony / Screen Gems announced that they would be giving the horror film Horrorscope a theatrical release on June 28, 2024. But in late October, Paramount announced that they were moving A Quiet Place: Day One from its previously announced March 8, 2024 release date to June 28. So it’s no surprise to hear (via Borys Kit) that Screen Gems has decided to shift Horrorscope forward to May 10th. Thanks to A Quiet Place: Day One, we’re going to see Horrorscope a month earlier.

Screen Gems horror movie Horrorscope had been set for theatrical release on June 28, 2024, a prime summer slot, but we’ve learned this week that Sony has re-dated the movie.
Horrorscope will now release in theaters on May 10, 2024.
Why the move? It may have something to do with the fact that A Quiet Place: Day One is currently dated for theatrical release on June 28, moving into that new date just last month.
Jacob Batalon (“Reginald the Vampire”), Alana Boden (The Invitation), Adain Bradley (Wrong Turn: The Foundation) and Avantika (Senior Year) will star alongside Humberly González (Nobody), Wolfgang Novogratz (Assassination Nation), Larsen Thompson (“The Midnight Club”), Harriet Slater (“Pennyworth”) and Olwen Fouéré (Mandy).

‘Expendables 4’ Trailer Plays Up the Strong Bloody Violence That Makes the Franchise Rated “R” Again
The first two movies in The Expendables franchise were released into theaters with “R” ratings, but oddly enough, The Expendables 3 came along in 2014 with a PG-13 rating.
Lionsgate isn’t making that mistake again, and this week’s official Red Band trailer for The Expendables 4 promises that the franchise’s return is Definitely a rated “R” affair.
In fact, the entire marketing gimmick for the movie is that it’s rated “R” and bloody-as-hell, with the trailer humorously spotlighting tweets from fans who were begging for it.
The Expendables 4 has been rated “R” by the MPA for “Strong/bloody violence throughout, language, and sexual material,” all of which is on display in today’s official trailer.
Preview the ultra-violence of Expendables 4 by watching the Red Band trailer below.

The official trailer for Expendables 4, written as Expend4bles – looks great in print, sounds weird if you say it as it’s spelled – shows Jason Statham and Megan Fox getting physical while the tagline declares: “Some relationships are built to last and some relationships are…Expendable.” The two-minute trailer then shows action fans a montage of select members of the ensemble cast, including Sylvester Stallone, Curtis 50 Cent Jackson, Dolph Lundgren, and Andy Garcia.
Directed by Scott Waugh, the fourth film of the action franchise also stars Tony Jaa, Iko Uwais, Randy Couture, Jacob Scipio, and Levy Tran.

After unveiling a new title and poster for the fourth film in the action-packed Expendables franchise, The Expend4bles trailer is here to turn up the heat and blow your socks off with brutal combat, explosions, and new members of an elite team of badasses.
In The Expend4bles trailer, Jason Statham’s Lee Christmas reunites with Megan Fox’s character, who is as lethal and clever as any Expendable we’ve encountered throughout the series. After a quick tumble and some bedroom gymnastics, Sylvester Stallone’s Barney Ross informs Christmas it’s time to gear up and rejoin the team for another mission. During a debrief, the Expendables learn a group of terrorists has taken possession of nuclear missiles on a cargo ship off the coast. If the weapons detonate, the aftermath will trigger World War III.

2023 marks another year where the Academy Awards have shuttered horror from the competition, but genre fans know better than to expect anything less. Although there have always been exceptions in the past, such as "The Exorcist," "The Fly," and "Get Out," the Oscars' track record speaks for itself. But the truth is that horror folks don't really need the attention of the prestigious awards body when they have a better outlet to see their favorites receive some industry recognition.
If you're a horror nerd, then the Fangoria Chainsaw Awards is where you want to be paying attention. Although the famed magazine started this back in the '90s, it's only been in the past few years that they've started making it a yearly tradition. On top of that, the one-hour ceremony, which usually airs on Shudder, is curated for horror folks by horror folks. Where else are you going to...

In a surprising move, Netflix has decided not to release the completed genre films The Inheritance (directed by Alejandro Brugués) and House/Wife (directed by Danis Goulet) as Netflix Originals. Thankfully, this isn’t a situation like Warner Bros. deciding to scrap Batgirl instead of going through with its release. The filmmakers behind these two projects will be able to try to find a new home for them… and the search is already underway. The Hollywood Reporter hasn’t been able to dig up any information on why Netflix decided not to release either of the two movies.
Scripted by Joe Russo and Chris Lamont and produced by Paul Schiff, The Inheritance stars Bob Gunton, Peyton List, Austin Stowell, Briana Middleton, David Walton, Reese Alexander, and Rachel Nichols. The story takes place on the eve of billionaire Charles Abernathy 75th birthday, when he invites his four estranged children back home out...

In the summer, HBO Max made the announcement that the DC feature film Batgirl and the animated movie Scoob!: Holiday Haunt would be shelved after both had completed production. At the time,...
