April Fool’s Day may have already come and gone, but anyone who has joined the Daily Dead gang on Twitch knows that we are fools all year round. So let’s just keep that energy going for our next Twitch Watch Party with the 1986 cult slasher April Fool's Day tonight at 8pm EDT!
A motley crew of criminals gets more than they bargained for when the 12-year-old ballerina they kidnapped for a $50 million ransom turns out to be a bloodthirsty vampire in Abigail, the latest film from the Radio Silence trio of directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett and producer Chad Villella. With Abigail recently having its world premiere in New Orleans at the Overlook Film Festival ahead of its April 19th theatrical release via Universal Pictures, Daily Dead had the chance to talk with Matt and Tyler before the world premiere to discuss the vampire and crime film influences behind their horror heist genre mashup, filming in the historic (and potentially haunted) Glenmaroon House in Ireland, working with a star-studded ensemble, and the full-circle emotions of screening Abigail in New Orleans after shooting their first feature in the Big Easy more than a decade ago.
"In ESSENTIALS, mathematician Harris Pax predicted the end of the world, but failed to prevent it. Now he’s living alone in a bunker and his niece’s favorite toys are starting to talk to him. The good news? He’s not the world’s sole survivor. The bad news? The other survivors are trapped in alternate realities — trapped in imagined worlds full of zombies, pterodactyls, and chaos. And now Harris Pax and an unlikely ally must travel the country on a quest to restore reality, save humanity, and defeat his new interdimensional nemesis: Snuggles."
Essentials is the graphic novel debut of Luke Arnold and the first-ever release from THE LAB PRESS. Having just launched its Kickstarter campaign, it's an incredibly ambitious project featuring "a stunning array of all-star comic artists," including: DaNi (Sandman The Dreaming), Glenn Fabry (Preacher), Jason Howard (Transformers), Vince Locke (A History of Violence), Brendan McCarthy (Spider-Man: Fever), Andrea Mutti (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo), M.K. Perker (Air) and a cover by legendary artist Bill Sienkiewicz (New Mutants).
Along with exclusive preview pages from Vince Locke, giving us a tease of Essential's zombie apocalypse, we have quotes from Luke Arnold and Doc Wyatt about what you can expect from their new graphic novel:
“Though we begin our story in a zombie apocalypse, don’t expect the book to remain here. Without spoiling things too much, this book takes place in a different kind of apocalypse, where objective reality has become untethered. Now, an individual’s subjective view of the world will manifest around them, creating a personal bubble reality that reflects their beliefs, desires, fears or dreams.
As we travel into each of these manifestations, our heroes – and the reader – will be unraveling the mystery of what each reality says about the person creating it.
What experience might have caused them to see the world this way?” – Luke Arnold
“When we were thinking about what worlds/realities we wanted to visit in this reality-hopping romp, we knew we wanted to do something stripped down and low tech, to stand in contrast to some of the more scifi-type realities. What’s more stripped down and low tech than a zombie apocalypse. It’s a familiar enough reality that you can get a little comfortable before we rip the rug out from under you.” – Doc Wyatt
"The ambitious 140-page sci-fi epic is the debut offering from THE LAB PRESS, a new graphic novel publisher helmed by founder and CEO Nicholas Kalikow, who is joined by Editor-in-Chief Dagen Walker, Vice President of Business Development Diane Richey, and Chief Creative Officer and partner Mike Zagari.
The original graphic novel features a stunning array of all-star comic artists: DaNi (Sandman The Dreaming), Glenn Fabry (Preacher), Jason Howard (Transformers), Vince Locke (A History of Violence), Brendan McCarthy (Spider-Man: Fever), Andrea Mutti (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo), M.K. Perker (Air) and a cover by legendary artist Bill Sienkiewicz (New Mutants). ESSENTIALS features
An all-star roster of artists brings Luke Arnold and Doc Wyatt’s wild, sci-fi adventure to life, with each artist illustrating a different alternate reality. Vince Locke unveils a zombie apocalypse. Andrea Mutti depicts tragedy in outer space. MK Perker illustrates a stunning, aquatic fantasy sequence. Glenn Fabry pulls back the curtain on a creepy collector of classical art And DaNi and Jason Howard play with an ever-changing “objective” reality, which threatens to swallow our hero and everything we have ever known.
In addition to its core staff, which includes THE LAB PRESS Editorial Assistant Lindsay Musil, THE LAB PRESS is working with talented publishing freelancers, including Lillian Laserson, John J. Hill, Ryane Lynn Hill, Olivia Ngai, Emma Price (Barnstormers), and Davi
THE LAB PRESS’ Chief Creative Officer Mike Zagari is a twenty year comics veteran, who has worked at Marvel, Disney, and DC Comics and, most recently, as the head of AMC Networks Publishing. “It’s no secret that the comics industry is in a period of tremendous, transformative change,” said Zagari. “THE LAB PRESS is prepared to meet those challenges and opportunities head-on. We’re dedicated to publishing fearless storytelling, with unique styles and perspectives.

Encyclopocalypse Publications and Shout Factory Partner for Chopping Mall Novelization: "In a thrilling development for horror fans and bibliophiles alike, Encyclopocalypse Publications has joined forces with Shout Factory to novelize the cult classic 1986 film CHOPPING MALL. Produced by the legendary Roger Corman, CHOPPING MALL has been a mainstay of the horror genre.
Since acquiring the rights to Roger Corman's library in 2018, Shout Factory has been exploring innovative ways to bring these classic films to a broader audience. This partnership with Encyclopocalypse Publications marks a new chapter in that journey.
The novelization of CHOPPING MALL will be penned by author Brian G. Berry, who has penned several novelizations for Encyclopocalypse, and have garnered praise for their faithful yet fresh retellings of fan-favorite films. “As a kid, I watched tons of horror movies. But none of them ever gave me that 'creeped out' feeling I was seeking until I saw the cover of the Chopping Mall VHS cassette sitting on the shelf of my local video store.” Says Brian G. Berry (author of novelizations such as The Barn, Commando Ninja, and Amityville Death Toilet). “From that point on, Chopping Mall had a special place in my heart. Fast forward thirty years, and here I am, honored to be writing the novelization for the first horror movie that ever creeped me out based on the cover alone.”
Mark Alan Miller, President and Founder of Encyclopocalypse Publications, previously worked with Shout Factory on the director's cut of Clive Barker's NIGHTBREED, which was met with critical acclaim and commercial success. Miller is thrilled to rekindle this partnership.
"I relish the chance to collaborate with the good people at Shout Factory again," said Miller. "Chopping Mall is one of my very favorite '80s horror movies, and I know I'm not alone. I can say with confidence that Brian Berry has delivered something the fans will love."
Based on the screenplay by James Wynorski and Steve Mitchell, CHOPPING MALL: THE NOVELIZATION promises to deliver all the laughs and thrills that have made CHOPPING MALL a beloved fixture in horror cinema, reimagined as a collectible paperback book.
The audiobook will be voiced by Joe Hempel, a veteran of Horror audiobook narration. Joe lent his voice to the fan favorite audiobook of ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES by Jeff Strand and will bring his incredible talents to create an unforgettable audiobook experience.
Paperback pre-orders in the USA are available directly at encyclopocalypse.com, with International Pre-order links populating the pages. There are two versions available: a standard Trade size and a pocket-sized Mass-Market version reflecting the publisher's love of novelizations from the 80s and early 90s. Most International customers will be able to pre-order via their favorite local or online booksellers within the coming weeks.
eBook pre-orders are available for everyone via encyclopocalypse.com and all major online booksellers, including Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
On November 19th 2024, CHOPPING MALL: THE NOVELIZATION will be available wherever books are sold.

Plan 9 from Outer Space conquers Earth as a new Novelization released for creator Edward D. Wood, Jr.’s 100th birthday!: "IN 1957, Ed Wood gathered a cast made up of the once-famous, the once-living, and the altogether unknown. Dime-store flying saucers invaded a surreal patchwork of small sets, found props, and stock footage. The remarkable results did not see a general release until two years later, when Plan 9 from Outer Space finally made it into theaters.
From the aliens pontificating in their carhop uniforms to the cemetery sporting ankle-high, balsa wood headstones, Wood’s masterwork continues to capture the attention of film creators and fans on every continent.
Now, in 2024, Encyclopocalypse Publications maintains their commitment to preserving cinematic genre history through novelizations with their release of PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE: THE NOVELIZATION on October 10th, 2024. On that day, Edward D. Wood Jr. would have been 100 years old!"

NEON SETS HOME ENTERTAINMENT LAUNCH DATES FOR MICHAEL MOHAN & SYDNEY SWEENEY’S IMMACULATE: "Award-winning film studio NEON announced today that it will release Immaculate, starring Sydney Sweeney (Anyone But You, “Euphoria”) for digital purchase and rental starting April 16th. The film will be available on Blu-Ray and DVD starting June 11. The home release comes on the heels of Immaculate’s massive success at the US box office, quickly becoming an audience favorite, grossing over $15.2mm and counting, and remaining in the US box office top 10 for three weeks.
Sweeney stars as Cecilia, an American nun of devout faith, embarking on a new journey in a remote convent in the picturesque Italian countryside. Cecilia’s warm welcome quickly devolves into a nightmare as it becomes clear her new home harbors a sinister secret and unspeakable horrors.
NEON acquired Michael Mohan’s Immaculate, produced by and starring double Emmy Award®-nominee Sydney Sweeney (“The White Lotus”, “Euphoria,” “Anyone but You”) ahead of its SXSW World Premiere, marking a reunion between Sweeney and Mohan, who helmed 2021’s The Voyeurs with the actress. The film, which features a script by Andrew Lobel, also stars Simona Tabasco (“The White Lotus”), Alvaro Morte (“Money Heist”), Benedetta Porcaroli (“Baby”), and Dora Romano (The Hand of God). Sweeney produced with Jonathan Davino for Fifty-Fifty Films, alongside Middle Child Pictures’ David Bernad, who developed the project with Sweeney following their collaboration on the Emmy-winning “The White Lotus”. Teddy Schwarzman and Michael Heimler produced for Black Bear, which fully financed and represented the international sales rights. Executive producers are Black Bear’s John Friedberg and Christopher Casanova, alongside Will Greenfield.
Immaculate has been called, “darkly beautiful, bloody and bold,” and “one of the best religious horror films in years,” with audiences and critics specifically calling out its “genuinely shocking ending.”
Starring Maika Monroe as a rideshare driver who encounters a killer client played by Dane DeHaan, Veena Sud's The Stranger has found new life as a recut feature film following its release as a Quibi series back in 2020.
Recently, DSTLRY announced THE BIG BURN, a new creator-owned heist comic written by Lucifer co-showrunner Joe Henderson (Skyward, Shadecraft) with art by his longtime collaborator Lee Garbett (Lucifer, Loki: Agent of Asgard, Uncanny Spider-Man). Covers from Lee Garbett and Tula Lotay have been previously revealed and we're excited to exclusively debut variant covers from Jock, Becky Cloonan, and Junko Mizuno.
"Owen and Carlie are the Bonnie and Clyde of the 21st century - a smooth, slick duo who pull off impossible heists, and have the time of their lives doing it. But when justice finally catches up to them, they think it's all over. Until the Devil himself offers them a deal - their freedom for their very SOULS. But they soon find that without their souls, their love is missing too. So they set out to recruit a crew of the damned for the ultimate heist: break into Hell and steal their souls back.
Joe Henderson (SKYWARD, SHADECRAFT, Netflix's Lucifer) and Lee Garbett (SKYWARD, LOKI, UNCANNY SPIDER-MAN) invite you on a thrilling journey to a Hell you've never seen before. A place perfectly designed to give people hope, so that the devil can torture them with it when he takes it away. Again and again. That's right, Hell is a CASINO. And even with the greatest team of thieves, the house always wins."

I still have fond memories of gathering around the TV with my family on Sunday nights to watch Veena Sud's captivating TV series The Killing (based on Forbrydelsen by Søren Sveistrup), so I'm especially thrilled that Veena's 2020 Quibi series The Stranger (starring Maika Monroe as a rideshare driver who encounters a killer client played by Dane DeHaan) has been recut and re-released as a feature film that's now streaming on Hulu!
A supernatural-charged exploration of patriarchy in Pakistan, Zarrar Kahn's In Flames is now playing in theaters via Game Theory Films, and we have an exclusive clip to share with Daily Dead readers!
Available now from Fantagraphics, Tender is a compelling body horror graphic novel from Beth Hetland that you won't be able to put down. Drawing from her own personal experiences and inspired by a wide range of horror classics, Beth Hetland has crafted something really special in Tender and we have a preview you can read right now! Beth also took part in a Q&A, where we talk about the origins of the graphic novel, horror influences, and more!
What inspired the story of Tender and how did you end up teaming with Fantagraphic for your graphic novel debut?
The idea came from several places, not just one major inspiration. Some of it is pulled from my own anxieties and some of it is in response to events happening to people close to me. I get a lot of atmospheric inspiration from horror movies or eerie locations that creep me out. The sensation of being observed is one in particular that makes my skin crawl. Tender is an accumulation of little ideas that showed up in mini comics and self-published work I've been producing for the last ten or so years. It's funny to me that this book is a debut, which is true that this is my first book with a publisher but that the evolution of ideas, story, and visual inspiration come from making smaller experimental projects. As far as how working with Fantagraphics came about, it is a similarly long road of cultivating a relationship through smaller interactions. Since graduating from The Center for Cartoon Studies in 2011, I've been tabling at conventions regularly and putting out new work as often as possible. At least one new mini comic each year. I first met Gary at an Emerald City Comic Con around 2014 or 2015, and he complemented the design of some of my mini comics. Ever since, when I would see Gary or Eric at a show, I would make a point of saying hi and sharing my new work with them. Eventually, when I had Tender written, penciled, and ready to start sharing with people, I reached out and explained the book and why I thought it would be a good fit and asked if they wanted to see what I was up to. I'm condensing this timeline for the sake of clarity, but when I was about half way through inking the book, they had seen enough to make a decision and I am so grateful they did. Ultimately the answer to both parts of this question is through consistent, small, increments over time.
Can you talk about the development of this story and Carolanne? Did you have a definitive trajectory for Carolanne when you started developing this story? How did the story and characters evolve during the creative process?
When starting to work on this story there were very few things I knew for certain. One of them was that it was going to be a horror story, and the other was that I wanted a female protagonist. The various aspects of who Carolanne is slowly developed throughout writing and drawing. An important aspect of her character for me from very early on was that I wanted her emotional arc to be in direct contrast to the audience's. Without giving too much away, I wanted the disconnect between her, her reality, and ours to be very stark. The horror I love, both in prose and in film, has an element that is relatable. Keeping that in mind, I needed the reader to be able to follow Carolanne's logic, no matter how twisted, and to understand where she's coming from and why she does what she does. There were a lot of edits that I made about the final 15 pages or so to help hone in on that delicate balance. Some of my original ideas and approaches to the conclusion were a little too implausible and pushed the suspension of disbelief too far. In addition to the changes to the ending, there were pretty significant changes to Carolanne's friends. She has a core group of female friends and in early versions of the book, they were fairly generic and bland. I received some fantastic insight and advice from some very close friends and fellow cartoonists that helped shape them into the gal pals we see now. I think these changes to Carolanne and her friends ultimately aided in lending an empathetic read to this character.
I really love your use of colors and changes in panel composition to pull in the reader and unsettle them. I'd love to hear more about your approach.
Thanks so much! The color is strongly inspired by Dario Argento's 1977 Suspiria. I love that movie and the way he approaches this candy-coated horror. There's something about the vibrancy of the color that makes things feel dream-like and unsettled. The visual dissonance paired with a soundtrack gives me goosebumps! I had been experimenting with color as a way to cause discomfort in a few mini comics and as Tender began to take shape, I knew this book should be in color. As for the panel compositions, I think a lot about pacing when making comics and the compositions of what is in the panels is just as important as the way they accumulate on the page. Comics has a unique aspect where the reader is actively participating in the experience of reading and that it can play with the simultinaity of the page. We get an overall view of what is on each page and page spread, but then we have to slow down to absorb what's happening in the story and each panel. I think the awareness of that push and pull of the reader's proximity to what's happening aids in the slow creep of the horror in my book. At least, that's what I hope happens.
What was your experience like working with Fantagraphics and how did that process impact the finished version of Tender?
If I'm being perfectly honest, having my book with Fantagraphics is a dream come true. I have admired the creators and books they've put out for so long that I am still pinching myself. My editor for Tender was Eric Reynolds and he was very supportive and trusted my vision with the book, he gave line edits and input on more logistical elements but I really appreciated that there was never a moment of trying to steer the story into a new direction. Kayla E. was the book designer I worked with and it was really fun to be able to pull books from both of our shelves to compare paper weights and nerd out about end tapes! Jacq and Lauren have been paramount to building the buzz and helping me book events, signings, readings, and conventions. There are so many more and having self-published for over a decade, I'm incredibly appreciative for every single person's hard work and attention on this book. I couldn't be happier with how it turned out!
I'd love to hear about some of your horror influences. Do you have a favorite body horror movie?
I have so many horror film favorites! The Brood, both Suspiria's (I would argue the 2018 one is more body horror than the 1977 one but I love them both for different reasons), Possession, RAW & Titane, The Thing (some may put this as more of a sci-fi), and all of Park Chan-Wook's films, though again I think there would be some debate over how they align (or don't) with body horror.

"Carolanne wanted a perfect wedding, a perfect husband, a perfect family. She carefully performs her own roles (gal pal, bestie, girlfriend, wife, and expectant mother) and in trying to enact agency over her life, sacrifices it completely. Her desire to control the uncontrollable ultimately becomes her undoing. When things don't go her way, she exerts dominance over the one thing she does have total control over: her body; until that "betrays" her. After suffering a horrible loss, Carolanne spirals into a literal, all-consuming delusion that will engross comics readers and horror aficionados alike.
Chicago cartoonist and educator Beth Hetland's graphic novel debut is a brilliant psychological thriller that tears down the wall of a genre — body horror — so often identified with male creators. Heady and visceral, Tender uses horrific tropes to confront women's societal expectations of self-sacrifice despite those traditional roles often coming at the expense of female sexuality and empowerment."

While the Big Easy was still shaking off a slight springtime chill, my horror-loving heart was heating up as I rode the escalator to the third floor of the Canal Place mall: home of the sprawling food court, the terrific Prytania Theaters, and, for this weekend, the official headquarters of the “summer camp for genre fans,” the 2024 Overlook Film Festival!
Now available on Tubi, Donia Kash stars alongside Heidi N Closet, Cara Melle, Trinity the Tuck and Crystal Methyd in SLAY, a Tubi Original horror-comedy that is available to watch right now. In our latest Q&A, Donia talks about their interest in the role, the experience on set, and their love of vampire movies!
How did you first get involved with Slay and what interested you in the role of Jax?
Jem Garrard was looking for a non-binary performer who could do both horror genre and still have that fast-paced comedic energy that Jax brings to Slay. I just so happened to have auditioned for them on a different project and never imagined that Jax was the character I would get to play. They’re a character that has such Fan-Them energy that also lives inside me but they totally geek out in an extroverted way seeing the queens.
Do you have a favorite vampire movie and/or were there any films you watched in preparation for the role?
I don’t know if I have a favorite but I do love Vampires!! I loved the Blade trilogy growing up as well as Underworld. I definitely went into a deep dive watching Dusk till Dawn, the Twilight saga, and even What We Do in the Shadows.
The film very quickly becomes an all-out battle against vampires. What was the experience like on set?
It was awesome!! One of the greatest teams to work with and you can feel the love when you watch the film. Jem was so calm in the chaos and it’s lovely to work with a director who bounces off ideas while maintaining their vision to make the best film.
Although it is a vampire movie, it's also very much a comedy. Is there a moment on set you recall that was especially funny or caused you to break character while filming?
Jem wanted us to use some improv in certain scenes and wow, some of the things that came out of folks' mouths that also made the Final Cut of the film was hilarious!! Definitely unexpected in the best ways. It was sooo hard to keep a straight face to that actor or queen coming up with that line.
Now that you've faced off against a bar filled with vampires, do you have an interest in fighting any other movie monsters? Would you be open to more horror movies in the future?
I am in love with Horror now- this is fun!! More blood and some who done it?! I’d like to fight some zombies, werewolves, heck give me some dark fairy to smack. Into it!!
Can you share any details on what projects you have coming up?
Details…not so much but I'm excited to work on one of the biggest hit shows!!
