Darren Lynn Bousman Says Abattoir Is Like “Seven Meets Dark City Meets Hellraiser”

It's been a long and arduous journey for Darren Lynn Bousman's NOLA-based comic book adaptation, Abattoir. While I was talking to the Saw alumn last week, he revealed that his haunted house movie had numerous false starts that kept pushing back each hopeful start date, but when shooting finally wrapped about nine months ago, more than jubilation was felt. In the words of Bousman, he felt "vindicated." Not only had initial production been completed, but he was happy with the final result.

Final Girl Review

Tyler Shields is an incredibly creative visionary, yet Final Girl is nothing but revenge cinema in its basest form (despite the film's zany personality).

Straight Outta Compton Review

Straight Outta Compton is more a statement movie than a linear biopic, and while it runs a tad too long, Gray's cast never stops delivering a consistently passionate energy.

Dark Places Review

When a movie boasts such a loaded cast but still finds itself sentenced to a buried fate, there's usually a reason. Or in the case of Dark Places, there are many reasons.

Harbinger Down Review

Harbinger Down brings the monstrous goods as expect, yet struggles to tell a coherent story worth the practical effects success.

The Runner Review

The Runner is bland, generic, and (surprisingly) ALMOST saved by a seriously invested Nicolas Cage.

Five Star Review

Five Star has the power to make anyone appreciate the life they have, and think about what it really takes to be a man.

Frank The Bastard Review

Don't let its title fool you - Frank The Bastard is a dull, sluggish watch that's as exciting as visiting Maine is in real life.

I Am Chris Farley Review

I Am Chris Farley may avoid some of the comedian's darker moments, but it lets Chris bring joy into our lives at least one more time, and that's all he ever wanted to do.

Vacation Review

How horridly unsurprising. Another soulless comedy obsessed with poop, puke, and another p-word I'll refrain from using (because I'm still not sure how to pluralize it).
