A trailer has gone online for the creature-feature Dark Was the Night, starring Kevin Durand (“The Strain”), Lukas Haas (Transcendence), and model-turned-actress and former “World Poker Tour” hostess Sabina Gadecki (pictured). Jack Heller (Enter Nowhere) directs from a 2009 Black List script by Tyler Hisel.
Dark Was the Night follows a group of desperate townsfolk as they attempt to survive an evil beast freed from the woods by a careless logging company. Durand and Haas play the town’s sheriff and deputy, respectively. The film will hold its world premiere Oct. 16 at this year’s Screamfest LA.
Syfy has released a trailer for its new six-hour sci-fi mini-series “Ascension.” The show stars Tricia Helfer as the Chief Steward on board a space ship secretly launched in 1963 by the U.S. government to populate a new world. Fifty years later, they remain lost in space and faced with an unexpected murder.
The synopsis reads:
In 1963, the U.S. government launched a covert space mission sending hundreds of men, women and children on a century-long voyage aboard the starship Ascension to populate a new world.
Nearly 50 years into the journey, as they approach the point of no return, a mysterious murder of a young woman causes the ship’s population to question the true nature of their mission.
“Ascension” is created by executive producer and showrunner Philip Levens (”Smallville”). Co-stars include Brian Van Holt (“The Bridge”), Andrea Roth (“Rescue Me”), and Tiffany Lonsdale (G.I. Joe: Retaliation). The series premieres Nov. 24.
Stage 6 has released a red band trailer for Home Sweet Hell, a murderous tale about a maniacal wife who would rather force her husband to kill his hot, blackmailing mistress than leave him. Unfortunately for him, that plan not only leads to more danger, but to the discovery that his wife is totally bonkers.
Directed by Anthony Burns (Skateland), Home Sweet Hell stars Patrick Wilson and Katherine Heigl as married couple the Champagnes and Jordana Brewster (pictured) as the home-wrecking hottie. The red band trailer doesn’t contain any nudity, but it does have an undie-clad Heigl hacking away at her victim.
