Horror comedy “Happy Times” is debuting its trailer ahead of its international premiere in the Midnight Shivers section of Tallinn Black Nights Intl. Film Festival. M-appeal is handling world sales.
Director Michael Mayer and Guy Ayal co-wrote the script, which won the script award at Haifa Intl. Film Festival, where the film had its world premiere. The film received rave reviews in the Israeli press, including Haaretz, which wrote: “Every butchered body and every murder terrifies you, but also makes you laugh at the same time.”
The film takes place over the course of a Shabbat dinner at a fancy Hollywood Hills mansion, during which a toxic mix of alcohol, egos, cultural differences, lust and greed derails the evening, and things spin out of control. Secrets are revealed, relationships are tested and getting out in one piece will be the ultimate challenge.
The cast includes Michael Aloni, Lira Chiamami, Iris Bahr,...

Stars: Lior Ashkenazi, Rotem Keinan, Tzahi Grad, Doval’e Glickman, Menashe Noy, Dvir Benedek, Nati Kluger, Ami Weinberg, Guy Adler | Written and Directed by Aharon Keshales, Navot Papushado
Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado made quite a splash at FrightFest a few years back with Rabies, the first Isreali horror film which made a little bit of history by being so popular that a third screening was arranged for it. I was in the audience for the film myself that year but on a day where I was possibly the most drunk I have ever been in my life, I unfortunately did myself a disservice and can’t recall all that much about it. Having some karma to re-balance, I took to Big Bad Wolves in the most positive frame of mind I could, buoyed by the fact that Quentin Tarantino had praised it as the best film of 2013 and that...

Four delightful new and alternative posters celebrating the VOD release of writer/director duo Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado's excellent 'Big Bad Woves' have arrived our way. Magnet Releasing dropped the Israeli crime thriller On Demand earlier this month which you can check out right now. And at least only half of the new assets feature Quentin Tarantino's positive quotation. A film of this quality should be able to stand up on its own. 'Big Bad Wolves' stars Guy Adler, Lior Ashkenazi, Dvir Benedek, Gur Bentwich, Tzahi Grad, Rotem Keinan and Nati Kluger. Check out the new selection of one-sheets below....

It's that time of year where horror sites and fans present their Best Horror Films of 2013 lists. For some reason I've typically steered clear of top lists in the past. I think it's mostly because of the constant whining and bellyaching that occurs once lists are released. Plus there will inevitably be good films that didn't make the list. However, mostly it's the constant cries of "That wasn't a horror movie that was a thriller stupid!" or "That movie released last year dummy!" or "There are too many mainstream releases here losers!" or my personal favorite "That film totally sucked so you guys suck!", that really get to me.
This year I decided to go ahead and make a MoreHorror Top 20 Horror Films of 2013 list because a lot of people seem interested in our take. Yes there are some mainstream Hollywood films on the list,...

Israeli crime thriller 'Big Bad Wolves' has been the subject of plenty of praise recently including a quite defining quotation from one of the best filmmakers of all time.

Written by Brandy Bunce, MoreHorror.com,
We all know the typical parental revenge for a child’s death story from past mainstream thrillers; Big Bad Wolves is the Israeli version of this played out story with a list of new twists and from another country’s perspective. Written and directed by Aharon Keshales & Navot Navot Papushado, starring Guy Adler, Lior Ashenazi, and Dvir Benedek, this film has been praised by the likes of Quentin Tarantino as “the best film of the year”.
The sad part about that being said is, for those of us interested in seeing a film of such praise from such an iconic director, it’s kind of a hit or miss as to our chances of seeing the film in a theater setting. Israel has come a long way in the genre of horror/thriller films, introducing audiences to Kalevet (also known as Rabies (review)) in...
