Daisy Ridley (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) continues to awaken the force inside our pants in a new zombie frightener from director Zak Hilditch (1922), titled We Bury the Dead.
Slated for release Jan. 2, the film stars Ridley as a hot chick who joins a body retrieval unit in an attempt to find her missing husband after a military experiment goes fubar. Unfortunately, she discovers the undead instead.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead (pictured below) and Maika Monroe (pictured above) star in the 20th Century Studios’ remake of the hit 1992 nightmare nanny thriller, The Hand That Rocks the Cradle. At the helm are director Michelle Garza Cervera (Huesera) and screenwriter Micah Bloomberg (“Homecoming”).
Winstead portrays a hot mom whose family is targeted by a deranged au pair who wants her newborn. The role was originally played by Annabella Sciorra (Romeo Is Bleeding).
Monroe, hot on the heels of sleeper hit Longlegs, plays the deranged, hot nanny, a character made famous by Hollywood sex symbol Rebecca De Mornay (Risky Business).
The new Hand That Rocks the Cradle premieres on Hulu Oct. 22.
Peep it:
Winstead is coming off the Disney+ Star Wars series “Ahsoka,” playing a big-booty version of Twi’lek General Hera Syndulla. Notable fright creds include The Ring 2, Final Destination 3, Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof, 10 Cloverfield Lane, Birds of Prey, and the underrated remakes Black Christmas and The Thing.
She is featured in two of Clatto’s esteemed lists: The 20 Hottest Women Working In Horror and The Top 10 Babes of Fourth of July Horror.
Monroe first thrilled horror fans in 2014’s acclaimed supernatural thriller It Follows—a contender on Clatto’s 10 Sexiest Horror Movies of 2015. Other noteworthy flicks include the ID4 sequel Independence Day: Resurgence, Neil Jordan’s cougar/cub nightmare Greta, and the underrated sci-fi mind-fuck Significant Other.
HBO Max and Warner Bros. Television have set an Oct. 26 premiere date for “IT: Welcome to Derry,” an eight-episode prequel series to director Andy Muschietti’s blockbuster IT films, adapted from Stephen King’s 1986 bestseller.
Bill Skarsgård returns as Pennywise the Dancing Clown, terrorizing children in 1962 Derry, Maine, in the first season. Seasons two and three will shift the timeline to 1935 and 1908, respectively.
I never finished the novel, but the IT: Chapter Two movie was so disappointing (let’s be mean to the clown and hurt its feelings to death), I can only hope going back in time will make Pennywise great again…or at least give us a new gang bang (What? I missed the first one!).
Peep it:
Lionsgate has released a trailer for The Housemaid, a psychological thriller starring Sydney Sweeney (Immaculate) as a hot live-in housekeeper for newly minted milf Amanda Seyfried (Jennifer’s Body) and her wealthy family.
Directed by Paul Feig (A Simple Favor), the film is an adaptation of Freida McFadden’s novel about a homeless ex-con who takes a job as a housemaid for an abused and mentally unstable woman. It arrives in theaters Dec. 19.
Peep it:
Jennifer Lawrence is set to star alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in director Martin Scorsese’s upcoming adaptation of Peter Cameron’s horror novel What Happens at Night, scripted by Patrick Marber (Notes on a Scandal).
The story revolves around an American couple who travel to a small European town to adopt a baby, encountering oddballs and degenerates at the creepy hotel they book (damn you, Travelocity!).
Best known for playing Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games franchise and naked blue mutant Mystique in Bryan Singer’s X-Men films, Lawrence has also starred in the notable genre movies Mother!, the criminally underrated space-set romance thriller Passengers, and House at the End of the Street.
Columbia Pictures has released a trailer for its comedic reimagining of the hit 1997 creature-feature Anaconda, starring “Westworld” cougar Thandiwe Newton (pictured), Suicide Squad stunner Daniela Melchior, “White Lotus” OG Steve Zahn, and funnymen Paul Rudd and Jack Black.
The remake follows a group of friends out to reboot the Jennifer Lopez/ Jon Voight classic about a killer anaconda in the Amazon rainforest, only to come face-to-face with the real thing. The film, directed by Tom Gormican (The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent), arrives in theaters on December 25.

It happened in the blink of an eye. Amanda Seyfried—who played iconic ditz Karen Smith in Mean Girls, made out with Megan Fox in Jennifer’s Body, and played cub to Julianne Moore’s cougar in Chloe—is now a MILF.
Seyfried, who turns 40 in December, is ushering in her MILF stage in a big way, starring opposite stunner Sydney Sweeney in The Housemaid, a psychological thriller from director Paul Feig (A Simple Favor) and Lionsgate, premiering December 19.
Sweeney, who turns 28 today, plays the titular housemaid, hired by Seyfried to serve her and her affluent husband. Secrets are soon exposed, and Sweeney and Seyfried must have nude, lesbian sex to make things good again—or so we hope.
Peep some pics:
Sofia Boutella (Rebel Moon) has been tapped to star alongside gilfy stunner Diane Lane (Unfaithful), Dacre Montgomery (“Stranger Things”), and Tim Robbins (Shawshank Redemption) in director Brad Anderson’s (“Fringe”) psychological thriller Moral Capacity.
Boutella portrays a hot businesswoman whose husband (Robbins) blackmails the family man (Montgomery) she’s having an affair with at work, drawing him into a murderous plot.
Boutella is a professional dancer-turned-actress who made her horror film debut in Monsters: Dark Continent before her career-making turn as a hot assassin with blades for feet in Matthew Vaughn’s Kingsman: The Secret Service.
Other notable Boutella creds include Universal’s The Mummy, Paramount’s Star Trek Beyond, HBO’s 2018 adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451, Atomic Blonde—where she plays a nude lesbian assassin opposite Charlize Theron—and Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon, which ranks among Clatto’s 10 Sexiest Horror Films of 2023.
The Grabber returns in Black Phone 2, a sequel to the 2021 original about a serial killer (Ethan Hawke) who abducts and murders children. Director Scott Derrickson is back at the helm for Blumhouse—as is most of the cast.
A new face in the mix is 24-year-old, up-and-comer Arianna Rivas, fresh off her first major role as a hot missing person in Working Man, opposite Jason Statham. She portrays the hot daughter of a winter camp supervisor (Demian Bichir) in Black Phone 2.
Peep it:
Alexandra Daddario (“True Detective”) and her huge, all-natural eyes join John Cho (“The Exorcist”) in producer Ridley Scott’s Inground, a summertime-set thriller directed by Aaron Katz (Gemini) from a script by Dan Dworkin (“Scream: The TV Series”).
Peep the synopsis:
A recently divorced father attempts to reconnect with his young son by building a swimming pool in his backyard that they can both enjoy over the course of a long, hot summer. What begins as an exciting project turns into a terrifying nightmare.
No word on what role Daddario plays in the film, but we can only hope her character frolics in the pool wearing a micro-kini throughout the film. It’s possible that most moviegoers would pay to see that over this terrifying nightmare idea—just saying.
Daddario made her horror debut in Mary Lambert’s (Pet Sematary) haunted house thriller The Attic and quickly won fright fans over with roles in the gruesome indie-slasher Bereavement and Lionsgate’s Texas Chainsaw reboot. Like Margot Robbie in Wolf of Wall Street, Daddario’s career caught fire after going nude on HBO’s “True Detective.”
Her nude debut on “True Detective” made Clatto’s esteemed list of The 5 Hottest Nude Acting Performances in Horror 2014, and led to big Hollywood fare such as Baywatch and the earthquake blockbuster San Andreas.
Unlike Robbie, Daddario’s flame has inexplicably died out and could use some rekindling with more gratuitous nudity. Here’s hoping she, her agent, and Hollywood are listening.
