Malum is, according to its press release “a bold and expanded reimagining of the 2014 horror cult classic, Last Shift”. Now some may simply take that as a fancy way of saying it’s a remake of a film that’s less than ten years old. But there’s a difference between this and your average remake, it’s the work of the original director Anthony Diblasi and his co-writer Scott Poiley.
I considered revisiting Last Shift before watching Malum because while I remembered the basic plot and that I really liked the first hour then being let down by the final act, I didn’t recall a lot of the details. But, in part due to how knowing what to expect spoiled the impact of another recent reimagining,...

It was bound to happen. Netflix started making and showing original movies, then Amazon, and then Tubi followed suit with Swim. But as Tubi is not a thing here in the UK (thanks Gdpr) we’ve instead had to wait almost two years for the film to hit Blighty. However, don’t get too excited. Given their budget and “free with commercials” format of its source, this isn’t The Irishman or The Tomorrow War. This shark in the house film was made by The Asylum and their frequent director Jared Cohn from a script by Anthony C. Ferrante… so don’t expect Jaws either!
The Samson family Lacey, her father Noah, and kids Charlotte (Brett Hargrave; Weedjies: Halloweed Night) and Tucker (Daniel Grogan) are renting a beach house.

“TekWar” was William Shatner’s ’90s sci-fi passion project. Thirty-odd years later, he’s adapting his sci-fi world into an adult animated television series.
Deadline reported on Tuesday that Shatner, best known for portraying James T. Kirk in the original “Star Trek” series, is working with Pure Imagination Studios to develop and produce the adaptation. Per Deadline, the “TekWar” novels are set in the year 2043 and follow a former detective in futuristic Los Angeles who was framed for the crime of dealing an illegal mind-altering drug in the form of a bio-digital microchip. It poses a great threat to humanity and has the potential to become a virus that will lead to an unrecoverable future.
Shatner’s nine “TekWar” novels, which were ghost-written by Ron Goulart, were published from 1989 to 1997. The “TekWar” novels were adapted into a variety of mediums, including four television movies, a two-season live-action series, as well...

Stars: Jason Brooks, Jeri Ryan, William Shatner, Ciara Hanna, Robert Scott Wilson | Written by Maurice Hurley | Directed by Jared Cohn
Director Jared Cohn has been carving something of a name for himself in the direct to DVD market for a good few years now, usually delivering fun low-budget genre films that at least have one great idea on which to hang the film. And Devil’s Revenge is no different.
The hook here? The absolutely Amazing creature designs by Vincent J. Guastini which, along with the brilliant flashbacks to a grim and grisly past, keep you watching way past the over indulgent, overwrought, dialogue-heavy first half. The brief glimpses of something greater giving the audience hope that the rest of the film will – eventually – follow suit. It doesn’t but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to enjoy about this Indiana Jones-esque horror tale.

I’ve got a wild trailer here for you to watch for a supernatural horror action thriller called Devil’s Revenge. The film stars William Shatner, who was the original writer of the script, but the final script is credited to Maurice Hurley (Star Trek: The Next Generation).
The movie follows a down-on-his-luck archaeologist, played by Jason Brooks, who “returns from a cave expedition that contains a cursed relic that’s also a portal to Hell.” In the process he curses his family and the only way to stop the curse is to go back to the cave and destroy the relic.
So, Shatner, Jerry Ryan, and others join him on his journey and they end up battling some horrific demons from hell. This looks like a completely silly film, but it also could be fun to watch. Watch the trailer below and let us know if it’s something...

"I gotta get rid of this curse against our family, otherwise we're never going to be out of danger." An official trailer for an indie low budget horror tilted Devil's Revenge has debuted, which was (apparently) originally written by William Shatner. The final script is credited to Maurice Hurley. This is made by a director who has been making Asylum films for a while, and it definitely has that awful straight-to-bargain-bin look and feel. An archaeologist returns from a cave expedition that contains a cursed relic that's also a portal to Hell. He discovers that the only way to stop the curse on his family is to go back to the cave and destroy the relic. This has some crazy monsters in it, and lots of bad acting. Starring Jeri Ryan, William Shatner, Ciara Hanna, Jason Brooks, Robert Scott Wilson, and Michael Yahn. Take a look below. Here's the official...

Tagline: "Welcome to Hell." A few details have emerged for the horror title Devil's Revenge. Developed by Jared Cohn (The Horde), Devil's Revenge involves an archaeologist's dig and a portal to Hell. Now, the portal can only be closed by destroying an ancient relic. This title stars a few "Star Trek" alumni, including: William Shatner and Jeri Ryan (Star Trek: Voyager). Jason Brooks, Ciara Hanna and Jackie Dallas also star. As well, Cleopatra Entertainment has produced this horror film and will distribute it, this October. Cohn has directed a few horror titles, already. This film fan knows Cohn from his work on the action horror title The Horde (2016) and Death Pool (2017). Very much an indie director, Cohn is also a prolific actor, based out of the City of Angels. His latest is expected to release on October 1st. On this date, Devil's Revenge will be available on Digital platforms, across the United States.
