Sterling Beaumon has been cast in upcoming horror/thriller “Your Lucky Day.”
Beaumon will appear alongside Angus Cloud (“Euphoria”), Jessica Garza (“Penny Dreadful: City of Angles”) and Jason O’Mara (“The Man in the High Castle”) in the feature, which is already in production in Los Angeles.
Elliot Knight (“Color Out of Space”), Spencer Garrett (“Dopesick”), Mousa Hussein Kraish (“American Gods”), Jason Wiles (“Scream” series), and Sebastian Sozzi (“Fear the Walking Dead”) will also star in the film.
Set on Christmas Eve, the film turns the concept of the “American Dream” on its head and into a poisonous nightmare when a hostage situation breaks out at a small convenience store over a lottery ticket. The ticket happens to be worth $156 million and, inevitably, the situation soon spirals out of control.

Ahead of the UK premiere of serial killer thriller Anderson Falls at Arrow Video FrightFest Glasgow 2020, director Julien Seri reflects on the his first ‘American’ experience, challenging fight scenes and the importance of personal vision.
It has been five years since we premiered Night Fare at FrightFest London, what have you been up to since then?
I worked on two, very singular, projects as a producer and/or director. I signed for both with Wild Bunch, but we’ve failed to produce them yet. So I keep fighting. And I did a lot of commercials, TV series and music videos.
When did you first hear about the Anderson Falls script and why did you think it was perfect for you to direct?
I received the script late 2017. I read it and said ‘yes’ in the same day. It was a perfect American experience for me because it was low budget,...

Over the weekend, history was made in the live theatre world of Los Angeles, as Ben Rock and the legendary Stuart Gordon revived the stage play version of Kurt Vonnegut Jr.’s novel The Sirens of Titan for the Sacred Fools Theater. Gordon, who first tackled the darkly comedic sci-fi tale 40 years ago for Chicago’s Organic Theater, once again handled the screenplay adaptation for this new take on the classic story of a man who must lose everything to understand what life truly is all about. The result is a wildly entertaining exploration of what it means to be human, as well as a deeply moving experience that I enjoyed immensely.
After the premiere performance this past Friday, Daily Dead had the opportunity to chat with both Rock and Gordon (who are reteaming once again after a successful collaboration on Taste, a cannibal-themed dramatic production that also played at...
