Exclusive: Toronto’s Skyfox Media and Munich’s Studio 100 International have put into development a comedy-adventure feature promising a blend of “fantasy, steampunk and humor.”
Grimmlings is billed as a heartwarming comedy-adventure set in St. Crispin’s Orphanage, Shropshire, England, in 1908, and will explore themes of friendship, family and self-discovery in a “fantastical world” of woodland critters.
The story follows Owen, a young orphan, and his best friend Temperance, as they accidentally unleash menacing woodland monsters called Grimmlings from a hidden grimoire. The duo, along with the help of a quirky scientist named Quimple, embark on a quest to recapture the creatures and confront a sinister descendant of the Grimm Brothers before Halloween night.
Skyfox CEO Hong Kim and executive producer Brendan McNeill are set to produce the project.
“At the core of Grimmlings is a commitment to community engagement. We’re so excited to greenlight this project for development,...

The Last Video Store, set to premiere this Friday at Fantastic Fest, pays tribute to the format wars and the video stores of yesteryear through a cursed VHS tape that unleashes terror. Bloody Disgusting has been provided with a clip that demonstrates a horrific fate far worse than late fees for store employees and patrons.
The feature debut of directing duo Cody Kennedy and Tim Rutherford is described as “Last Action Hero meets Evil Dead” as the VHS Necronomicon has the ability to bring any movie character to life in the real world. That pits the protagonists against a slew of B-movie villains, with the below clip giving a peek at some of the rules and horror.
The official synopsis: “In this love letter to the era of the video store, we follow Nyla who accidentally uncovers a ‘cursed’ VHS tape. A film holds the power to connect the real...
