Gareth Evans is known for his inventive Indonesian martial arts actioner "The Raid," but the filmmaker has contributed to fright cinema. Trading "The Raid's" bleak tenement slum for a terrifying compound where a strange cult traps a news crew, his segment in horror anthology "V/H/S/2," "Safe Haven," blew fans away.

The horror short contains the same breakneck action and all-hell-breaks-loose insanity audiences have come to crave from Evans, who consistently manages to shock, thrill, and disturb viewers with the unexpected (and so far, a meager budget). Since the trailer for "The Raid 2: Berandal" was just released, we thought we'd revisit Evans' horror short with this trailer and newly released director's commentary — because why scare the hell out of yourself without a little company? Here's hoping the director will continue adding his signature touch to horror cinema.

That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
