The Cast of 'Annabelle: Creation' Describe How They Watch Horror Movies

A new trailer for Annabelle: Creation has dropped  and it looks pretty chilling. A prequel to Annabelle, about a possessed doll, the franchise is a spin-off from the popular The Conjuring series of films.The film tells the origin story of creepy doll Annabelle and stars Miranda Otto and Anthony LaPaglia. After losing their daughter in a car accident, they apparently make contact with her spirit. But when she asks to move into the doll, they realise its not their daughter and lock the doll away. But they end up playing straight into the evil spirits hands. Needless to say, things get a whole lot more sinister. Lights Out director David F. Sandberg takes the reins, while Gary Dauberman who wrote Annabelle is on screenplay duties. Heres the official synopsis from Warner Bros: Several years after the tragic death of their little girl, a dollmaker and his wife welcome a nun and several girls from a shuttered orphanage into their home, soon becoming the target of the dollmakers possessed creation, Annabelle.

Director Patty Jenkins shared two new clips from Wonder Woman, showcasing the Amazonian superhero jumping off brick buildings and punching a German henchman straight through a wall. When asked if people will be over comic book films soon, Jenkins told them to STFU because, "it's not just superheroes, it's universal storytelling about how to be a better person." PREACH.

Raw is rarely written about without mentioning reports that audience members at an early screening fainted during its more graphic scenes. Its true to say that there are some vivid and jolting sequences in the French-language horror about a girl who starts wrestling with cannibalistic urges. But while Julia Ducournaus film is both startling and original, you can also see the influence of some choice classic horror.We spoke to Julia Ducournau about the films that influenced Raw.One of those films is Brian DePalmas Carrie. The thing is, considering the premise of my own movie I knew that in the audience most of the people would think about Carrie on their own, she says. And so I thought: Okay, Im going to do a wink to that famous blood-shower scene so that we know its here. I know I go on the same territory, but my movie is very different. So after that you can move on, you know?Less direct nods go to the films of David Cronenberg  in the themes she broaches as well as the body horror represented on screen.The way he filmed bodies and the themes he tackles  with mortality and the human condition, and identity as well  are themes that I have always been interested in and that I treat in my own work, she says. As for her favourite Cronenberg films? I think as a filmmaker Dead Ringers would be my favourite one because for me its like his opera, she says. It is an opera in five acts. Its a Greek tragedy.Although for sheer punch, she picks another: As an audience in terms of emotions I would say The Fly because this movie makes me cry over and over and over again each time I watch it. Raw is currently on release in the US and hits screens in the UK on April 7.
