\nThe Night House<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Release Date: July 16, 2021<\/p>\n
The Night House, <\/em>an original film fresh from Sundance 2020,<\/em> will be seen by a general audience for the first time this year.\u00a0Director David Bruckner, the brains behind The Ritual<\/em> and the V\/H\/S<\/em> and Southbound<\/em> franchises, is at it again in this atmospheric horror film. The Night House<\/em> stars Rebecca Hall as Beth, a young widow grieving the unexpected death of her husband. Haunted by dreams that feel too real, she begins looking through his things in an increasingly obsessive effort to solve a mystery. Of course, some secrets are better left undiscovered. The film has a score of 88% on rotten tomatoes, and we are excited to see if the psychological thriller can hold its own with audiences.<\/p>\n Release Date: October 29, 2021<\/p>\n Folk horror has been having a moment the past few years, and Antlers<\/em> promises to give fans of the subgenre all the primeval-meets-modern chills they desire. Produced by Guillermo del Torro and directed by Scott Cooper (Wild Heart), Antlers<\/em> follows a middle school teacher who begins to suspect that one of her students is living with a supernatural monster. As she and her sheriff brother begin to investigate, they uncover a secret with frightening implications.<\/p>\n The film is based on the short story \u201cThe Quiet Boy\u201d by Nick Antosca (Channel Zero). Antosca also helped with the screenwriting. With all these big names involved, it\u2019s hard not to have high hopes for this one.<\/p>\n Release Date: September 10, 2021 (on HBO Max and Theaters)<\/p>\n If you\u2019re a James Wan fan, then Malignant<\/em> should be on your list of horror films to see this year. Wan has a huge list of film credits to his name, including horror and superhero titles. He clarified that Malignant<\/em> is not based on his superhero comic book The Malignant Man<\/em>. He stated, \u201cMalignant is an original thriller NOT based off any existing IP.\u201d<\/p>\n We don\u2019t know much about the plot yet. A trailer released on HBO Max shows actress Annabelle Wallis waking up in bed with a smashed wall behind her and a not-human creature rising ominously in the background. The movie will also star Jake Abel, of Supernatural<\/em> fame. Wan is secretive about the film, and we don\u2019t know when or if we\u2019ll get a more detailed trailer, but sometimes fewer details make a film more exciting.<\/p>\n Release Date: August 27, 2021<\/p>\n Described by director Nia DaCosta as a \u201cspiritual successor\u201d to the original 1992 film, 2021\u2019s Candyman<\/em> is already garnering praise and excitement. It follows Anthony McCoy (Abdul Mateen II), the baby used as a lure for the monster in the original film, now all grown up. He\u2019s living in blissful ignorance of the events that took place during his infancy and is worried about making ends meet as an artist in his gentrified Chicago neighborhood. When a neighborhood old-timer fills him in on some of the macabre details behind the Candyman legend, Anthony begins using the stories as inspiration for his paintings and unwittingly opens a door to the monster.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Release Date: May 28, 2021<\/p>\n In a world that seems overwhelmed with sequels and reboots, it\u2019s sometimes hard to get excited about one more. That being said, we are excited about the second installment of The Quiet Place<\/em>. The first film left audiences with some pretty big questions about what exactly the deal was with these sensitive-eared monsters\/aliens. The second film promises to answer some of these questions and give viewers a broader look at the Abbott family’s world. We have a hard time believing that the sequel could be more nail-bitingly tense than its predecessor, but the trailer shows Evelyn and her children involved in a more proactive battle for survival that should be interesting to watch.<\/p>\n Release Date: June 4, 2021<\/p>\n A franchise that has stood the test of multiple sequels, The Conjuring<\/em> has been thrilling fans with its true-story based tales of supernatural horror since 2013. This will be the third film in The Conjuring<\/em> franchise that tells the story of real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. The franchise also includes the Annabelle movies (there are three of them now), The Nun, and The Curse of La Llorona. These spinoffs show the origins of some of the demonic possessions that Ed and Lorraine encounter in the first two Conjuring<\/em> installments.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/castleofchaos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/pexels-brett-sayles-992731-300x200.jpg\")
