Awhile back, Clatto was fortunate enough to catch legendary horror director Stuart Gordon’s “Re-Animator: The Musical” during its Los Angeles run at The Steve Allen Theater. To this day, it remains one of the strangest and most fun evenings we have ever experienced (read our review here).

Well, Gordon is back with another, possibly more twisted, bit of theater: “Taste.” Written by playwright Benjamin Brand, “Taste” tells the shocking, true story of two men who meet online and “make a unique arrangement: one will kill, cook, and eat the other.”

Presented by Sacred Fools Theater Company, The Schramm Group LLC, and Red Hen Productions, “Taste” imagines their first and only meeting, told in real time, in a working kitchen. The play runs from April 11 – May 17 at the Sacred Fools Theater located at 660 N. Heliotrope, Hollywood, CA 90004.

Preview shows take place April 4 – 6 and April 10. A special Q&A session with Gordon will be held after each of these performance. Ticket info can be found here. Due to the play’s strong sexual content and imagery, no one under 18 will be admitted.

WARNING: POSSIBLE SPOILERS BELOW

True crime fans will recognize the story behind “Taste” to be that of Armin Meiwes, a German homosexual man sentenced to life imprisonment after slaughtering and eating Bernd-Jürgen Brandes, a willing victim he met in an internet chatroom in 2001.

Meiwes, who had fantasized about eating friends since the age of 12, viewed the act as a form of communion, a manner in which to keep someone close. Unfortunately, he grew impatient waiting for Brandes to die, and stabbed him to death.

He then hung Brandes on a hook and sliced him up into chunks. He videotaped the entire ordeal. For the following 10 months, he fed on Brandes meat. He was convicted for manslaughter and sentenced to eight-and-a-half years in 2004. After a retrial in 2005, he was given life imprisonment for being a sick fuck.

Meiwes has since become a vegetarian.

Open Road Films has released a red-band trailer for A Haunted House 2, a sequel to last year’s hit horror-comedy from Marlon Waynes and director Mike Tiddes. Waynes reprises his role as Malcolm, a man whose ex-girlfriend was possessed by demons and who is now starting his life over with a new family.

Jamie Pressly (“My Name Is Earl”) co-stars in the film as Malcolm’s hot new wife. She doesn’t get much time in the new trailer, a clever and humorous take on Facebook’s Look Back movie campaign, but we do get some kinky-hot shots of Annabelle, The Conjuring’s possessed doll, going nude.

Peep it:

Warner Bros. has released a trailer for its new tornado thriller Into the Storm, starring “The Walking Dead’s” Sarah Wayne Callies (Rick Grimes’ annoying and adulteress wife, Lori) as a meteorologist teamed up with a storm chaser during a series of violent twisters in an Oklahoma town.

The trailer teases some pretty awesome destruction and provides a peep at a variety of twisters just short of a Sharknado, including fiery funnel clouds! Into the Storm is directed by Steven Quale (Final Destination 5) and written by John Swetnam (Evidence). It hits theaters on Aug. 8.

Peep it:

Disney star Bella Thorne (“Shake It Up”) is set to star in Blumhouse Productions and Dimension Films’ Amityville. Directed by Franck Khalfoun (Maniac) and written by Casey La Scala (The Remaining) and Daniel Farrands (The Girl Next Door), the film is a remake of 1979’s The Amityville Horror.

Amityville stars Jennifer Jason Leigh (Single White Female) as a single mother who with her three children moves into a new house in Amityville, New York. Unfortunately for the new transplants, the house wants them gone. According to The Wrap, Thorne plays Leigh’s daughter.

The film is the newest in a string of horror films Thorne’s been taking on. The teen starlet, best known for playing aspiring pop singer CeCe Jones on the Disney Channel’s “Shake It Up,” recently wrapped the home-invasion thriller Home, and has starred in Forget Me Not and The Seer.

Image Entertainment will release All Cheerleaders Die May 8 on VOD and June 13 in selected theaters. The horror-comedy is a remake of the 2001 Lucky McKee (The Woman) slasher, and is written and directed by McKee and Chris Sivertson (I Know Who Killed Me).

All Cheerleaders Die stars Caitlin Stasey (I, Frankenstein) as a rebellious teen who joins her high school cheerleading squad after experiencing a tragic event. Her decision pisses off the popular cheerleaders and her loner, black magic practicing ex-girlfriend, played by Sianoa Smit-McPhee (”Hung”).

Additional co-stars include sexy newcomers Brooke Butler, Amanda Grace Cooper, Felisha Cooper, Sidney Allison, Nadia Boceski and Reanin Johannink (I Survived a Zombie Holocaust). The film’s new poster is posted above, and comes via Fangoria.
