Fox Home Entertainment has released a teaser for the fourth installment of its on-going hillbilly horror franchise Wrong Turn. Entitled Bloody Beginnings, the new chapter serves as a prequel and is set in an abandoned sanitarium discovered by lost college kids during a snow storm.
The film stars “Degrassi: The Next Generation’s” Terra Vnesa, Wishmaster 3-&-4’s Jennifer Pudavick, Jumping the Broom’s Tenika Davis, and 2009’s Miss CHIN International Bikini pageant winner Kaitlyn Wong.
Rachael Taylor joins fellow Aussie starlet Isabel Lucas in Erik Van Looy’s erotically-charged psych-thriller Loft, a remake of the Belgian director’s 2008 thriller of the same name. The 26-year-old stunner will play Ann, a prostitute who falls for the man she’s hired to seduce.
Loft is the story of five married men who together rent an apartment where they can each take women to bone. Things go horribly awry when one of their conquests ends up dead and none of the men will admit to knowing how she got that way.
Portraying the married guys are Patrick Wilson (Insidious), James Marsden (Straw Dogs), Wentworth Miller (Resident Evil: Afterlife), Matthias Schoenaerts (Pulsar) and Eric Stonestreet (”Modern Family”). Lucas, the first female cast in the flick, plays naive sex-toy Sarah.
Taylor, who most recently wrapped Summit Entertainment’s alien invasion thriller The Darkest Hour, has starred in a number of genre flicks, including Michael Bay’s Transformers, Masayuki Ochiai’s Shutter, the British sci-fi actioner Ghost Machine and porn icon Gregory Dark’s mainstream slasher See No Evil.
She will next be seen as one of “Charlie’s Angels” on ABC’s upcoming reboot of the 1976 Aaron Spelling-produced TV series.
Michelle Trachtenberg, best known for playing Buffy Summers’ sister on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” is set to join “Battlestar Galactica’s” Katee Sackhoff in TV producer/director Shawn Pillar’s feature film debut Sexy Evil Genius.
Sackhoff plays Nikki Franklyn, a psychotic sexy ex-con who murdered an old flame and is now out to execute a revenge plot that involves a group of her former lovers. No real info on Trachtenberg’s role, or that of costars Seth Green (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”), William Baldwin (Flatliners), and Harold Perrineau Jr. (“LOST”).
Trachtenberg played Dawn Summers on Joss Whedon’s long-running hit series “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” The pretty 25-year-old also starred as a sorority girl in Dimension Films’ 2006 remake of the 1974 Canadian slasher Black Christmas.
Sexy Evil Genius goes into production this week in Los Angeles.
