Robby Steven

The month of March is only a little over a week old, but the horror genre has been hit with various horror movie news items. The 80s action-horror franchise ‘Predator’ will be releasing a new film later this year on Hulu. Rob Zombie’s ‘The Munsters’ adaptation has finally been given a rating, however, it might surprise fans. With the success of ‘The Meg’ at the box office, it was only a matter of time before a sequel was on its way. The Alien franchise is looking to branch out and has signed a popular genre director to take over the next film.

Horror Movie News:

The Predator returns
The Predator franchise has seen its fair share of ups and downs in recent years. The upcoming film titled ‘Prey’ is set to be released this summer as an origin story set in 1719. The news first broke from a report in The Hollywood Reporter.

Shark Attack is Back

The Meg 2
Shark films are a dime a dozen, especially as the summer approaches. For every ‘Sharknado’ and ‘Two-Headed Shark Attack’ that drops on the SyFy Channel, there is usually a higher quality film that makes some noise. In 2018, the Jason Statham-lead ‘The Meg’ dropped in theaters, making over $500 million in the process. ‘Meg 2: The Trench’ is moving forward with Statham returning to star. Filming is currently taking place and the release date has been confirmed tentatively for August 4, 2023.

A Classic with a Twist

Rob Zombie’s ‘The Munsters’
Rob Zombie is a controversial figure in the world of horror. With a love him or hate him reputation, Zombie has stayed true to himself along the way. From ‘House of 1,000 Corpses’ and ‘The Lords of Salem,’ to the remake of ‘Halloween,’ Zombie is been a mainstay in the genre for nearly 20 years.

Last year is was announced that Rob Zombie would direct an adaptation of the 1960s TV show ‘The Munsters. The director confirmed that ‘The Munsters’ will be rated PG, so fans can expect something a bit different. Jeff Daniel Phillips is taking on the role of Herman Munster and Sheri Moon Zombie is playing Lily Munster as the two leads.
