Filming is officially underway on the survival horror film The Red, a feature expansion of director Ryan Coonan’s 2014 short film Waterborne. This version of the story stars Tess Haubrich (Wolf Creek season 2) and Michael Biehn (The Terminator), with Haubrich taking on the role of
a young sheriff, obsessed with living up to her dead father’s legacy, who finds her mettle tested when locals are found ripped to shreds. She must finally face up to her past and work with her eccentric Vietnam veteran uncle (Biehn) to defeat the beast responsible for the murders before it kills everyone in town.
Haubrich and Biehn are joined in the cast by Angie Milliken (Elvis). It’s worth noting that Haubrich and Biehn are both Alien franchise alums, as Haubrich had a role in Alien: Covenant and Biehn was, of course, in Aliens.

Time to let the monsters loose. Here There Be Monsters is a new horror short film made by Australian filmmaker Drew Macdonald. The film originally played at 50+ festivals around the world including Sitges, Hollyshorts, Screamfest and many more genre favs, and has won multiple awards along the way. To escape incessant bullying on the bus ride home, a young girl falls asleep, only to wake up trapped at an empty bus yard, with something fearsome lurking outside. Drew describes the short as "a throwback creature feature mixed with a contemporary story about bullying." The monster design in this is quite gnarly, which adds to the eeriness of the whole thing. Here There Be Monsters stars Savannah Foran McDaniel as Elki; plus Jordan Small, Brad McMurray, Toby Barron as the monster. Aside from the creature, it's impressive there's no dialogue in this short yet you can understand exactly what's going on and all the emotions.
