If you’re seeing NEON and director Osgood Perkins‘ The Monkey in theaters this week, you may want to stay seated until the lights come up.
Bloody Disgusting has received word that there’s something special after the credits, which we suspect is connected to Perkins’ next movie with NEON, Keeper.
Due out on October 3, the mysterious film is being billed as “a dark trip” from the director of Longlegs and The Monkey, one that’s armed with a very serious tone.
Written by Nick Lepard (Dangerous Animals), the upcoming Keeper stars Tatiana Maslany (“Orphan Black”) and Rossif Sutherland (Possessor).
NEON also has another horror movie, Together starring Alison Brie and Dave Franco, releasing on August 1. Maybe we’ll see something from that too…
Based on the Stephen King short story, The Monkey hits over 3,200 screens nationwide tomorrow.
Maslany stars in the gory horror-comedy alongside Theo James, Elijah Wood, Christian Convery, Colin O’Brien, Rohan Campbell, and Sarah Levy.
When twin brothers find a mysterious wind-up monkey in the James Wan-produced The Monkey, a series of outrageous deaths tear their family apart. 25 years later, the monkey begins a new killing spree forcing the estranged brothers to confront the cursed toy.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her review, “With brisk storytelling efficiency and a playful spirit, The Monkey delivers a Stephen King adaptation like no other. Perkins pushes back against logic in favor of entertaining midnight madness, and death has never been funnier or gorier as a result.”
Bloody Disgusting is celebrating the release of The Monkey with Stephen King Week, including giving away a 1/50 resin sculpt from the original monkey. Be sure to ENTER NOW!
