Neon is kicking off the year with an ultra creepy teaser for a mysterious horror movie on their 2024 slate, and we’re excited to share that eerie first look with you this morning.
The catch? We don’t actually know what movie it’s from! Neon is being super secretive about the teaser video, but we can at least present you with a list of strong guesses.
Neon currently has three horror movies in their 2024 lineup, including the Hunter Schafer-starring Cuckoo, which also stars Dan Stevens and Jessica Henwick. Directed by Tilman Singer (Luz), the movie has been shrouded in a bit of secrecy, with plot details under wraps.
And then there’s Longlegs, a hotly anticipated serial killer horror movie from director Osgood Perkins. Nicolas Cage stars alongside Maika Monroe, with Monroe playing an FBI agent and Cage playing a serial killer.

Films focusing on eroticism, much less S&m are not exactly common in titles coming from Asean countries, and even more so from Malaysia, one of the strictest countries in the area regarding what is depicted on cinema. Joon Goh, however, manages to present a film that deals exactly with that, in a style that both implies and is eloquent about what is going on.

But there is something else going on in their relationship, and over lunch break, the two play out a wild, sadomasochistic sexual game that exposes their power dynamic in a completely different fashion. Ever more so, since it is not exactly evident who is the one giving the orders here.

Fourteen months have gone by since we heard that Sydney Sweeney – whose credits include Euphoria, this weekend’s romantic comedy release Anyone but You, and the upcoming Sony Marvel movie Madame Web – was going to re-team with Michael Mohan, who directed her in the erotic thriller The Voyeurs, for the psychological horror film Immaculate. We hadn’t heard anything more about the movie until today, but it’s a positive update: Neon has acquired the U.S. distribution rights and they’re planning to give Immaculate a theatrical release. They didn’t say when this release might happen.
Scripted by Andrew Lobel, Immaculate sees Sweeney taking on the role of Cecilia, a woman of devout faith who is offered a fulfilling new role at an illustrious Italian convent. Her warm welcome to the picture-perfect Italian countryside is soon interrupted as it becomes clearer to Cecilia that her new home harbors some dark and horrifying secrets.

At long last, Jigsaw returned in Saw X. Set between the events of Saw and Saw II, the tenth installment is a gruesome fan-pleaser led by a franchise-best performance from Tobin Bell as John Kramer.
Along with a six-part making-of documentary and more, the film’s home video release features an audio commentary by director-editor Kevin Greutert, cinematographer Nick Matthews, and production designer Anthony Stabley.
Here are nine things I learned from the Saw X commentary…
1. Kevin Greutert was unsure about the concept until he read the script.
Greutert — who edited six previous Saw films and directed Saw VI and Saw 3D — is one of the few Saw creatives to return for Saw X, but he wasn’t sold on the initial concept.

With the return of fan favorites like Robert McCall in Equalizer 3 and John Kramer in the recently released Saw X, 2023 seems to be the year that bad guys relearn the significance of the saying—mess around and find out. Another thing they have in common is that, despite the vast differences between their modus operandi, in their own ways, both of these characters test how much their opposition, or victims, value the worth of their lives, by providing them with a chance.
Anyway, after the poor reception of the last Saw franchise entry, Spiral, the makers made the right choice by letting Tobin Bell reprise the role of John Kramer, the infamous Jigsaw killer. This time, not in flashbacks, but in the proper lead, with perhaps the most screen time attributed to him in this venture compared to all previous entries. In years to come, for series fans, Saw X...

As a self-professed Saw-head, I will admit that anytime we get a brand-new Saw movie, I’m happier than Billy riding his bicycle to greet a new victim. Good or bad, I find the films in this franchise to be endlessly entertaining (and rewatchable), with Saw II and Saw VI being amongst my favorites from the series. Well, now there’s a new contender for my favorite Saw movie because Saw X is that damn great. It’s hard to believe that a tenth film in a horror franchise could deliver the goods as well as it does (so to speak), as usually with different series, the longer they go on, the more diminishing the returns are.
But Saw X feels like an absolutely miraculous achievement and was a completely enthralling viewing experience. Directed by Kevin Greutert and co-written by Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfinger, Saw X brings about...

The “Saw” films have always been rightfully tagged as torture porn, but they come on as flesh-ripping morality plays. Each victim, strapped into his or her loopy-ingenious electro-medieval Rube Goldberg slicer-dicer-chopper-gouger, is being put through the agonies of the damned only because of some sin that he or she committed in the real world. The whole concept of sin, articulated this heavily, is more than a little corny, but there’s no denying that in the “Saw” movies the concept serves a canny purpose.
The most interesting idea in the “Saw” films, stated over and over by that wizened high priest of sick violence John Kramer, a.k.a. Jigsaw (Tobin Bell), is that he isn’t actually killing anyone. He’s just giving people choices. (Choose to have your fingers pulled out of their sockets…or die.) It’s an idea that links up to what’s going on in the audience.

Admit it, you kinda missed Jigsaw.
Sure, Spiral, the most recent entry in the hugely successful Saw horror film franchise, had Chris Rock in the cast. But a copycat killer just doesn’t compare to the original, John Kramer, played so indelibly by Tobin Bell in every other film in the series. Fans of these twisted torture porn films (whose names should probably be registered with local authorities) will be happy to hear that Bell is back in the 10th and newest entry, imaginatively titled Saw X, and that he has more screen time than ever before. That’s what not being dead anymore will do for a character.
To explain for those unfamiliar with the franchise, Bell’s character John Kramer, who was nicknamed Jigsaw for grisly reasons which need not be explained here, died at the end of Saw 3. But that didn’t keep the films’ producers...

Kate Wyler was always going to end “The Diplomat” wearing a red dress.
The instantly iconic look in the Netflix series’ season finale finds Keri Russell’s newly appointed diplomat to the U.K. attending a gala at the Louvre in a flowing red gown, evoking none other than Audrey Hepburn in “Funny Face.” And that particular look was written into series creator Debora Cahn’s script from the beginning.
“Red was always in Debora’s script,” “The Diplomat” costume designer Roland Sanchez told IndieWire. “Debora laid it all out. She’s very in tune. She’s very costume oriented and there’s reasons why she does things for these characters.”
Working from the script, Sanchez found a red dress from Galvan London that fit the bill. But then the location scout brought bad news. “[The dress] was originally a burgundy. But we were shooting in a burgundy room the exact color of the dress,...
