On October 21, 2021, cinematographer Halyna Hutchins was killed in a tragic on-set accident during the production of the Alec Baldwin film, "Rust." While preparing for a scene as the film's director of photography, Baldwin discharged a live round from a Pietta .45 Colt revolver, which was being used as a prop, injuring director Joel Souza and fatally wounding Hutchins. On February 15, 2022, Hutchins' family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Baldwin (who also served as a producer) and other crew members on "Rust," alleging that her death was wholly preventable and the result of cost-cutting safety measures and irresponsible on-set behavior. Legal proceedings have been ongoing ever since, but today, on-set armorer Hannah Gutierrez Reed was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter, as reported by Variety.
As the on-set armorer, it was Gutierrez Reed's responsibility for the safe handling of firearms on set, and was the one who loaded the live bullet into the gun used by Baldwin.

The writer and director of slasher-comedy Freaky are reuniting for a brand new time-traveling slasher movie titled Time Cut, with Christopher Landon producing and Michael Kennedy writing the script alongside Hanna Macpherson (“Into the Dark”). MacPherson also directs Time Cut, which has been described as “Back to the Future meets Scream.”
We’ve learned today that Time Cut is coming to Netflix in 2024!
In the upcoming slasher, “A teenage girl travels back to the early 2000s to stop a vicious killer from murdering her sister.”
It sounds like this one is cut from the same cloth as Freaky, Happy Death Day, It’s a Wonderful Knife and Totally Killer, part of a new breed of horror-comedy-slasher hybrids.
Madison Bailey (Outer Banks) and Antonia Gentry (Ginny & Georgia) star alongside Michael Shanks, Griffin Gluck, Rachael Crawford, Jordan Pettle, Megan Best, Samuel Braun, Sydney Sabiston, and Kataem O’Connor.
Time Cut features a story by Michael Kennedy.

Exclusive: Haley Elizabeth Anderson has wrapped production on Jazzy Jumpers, a documentary she was tapped to direct for Indigenous Media, P&g Studios and A Seed & Wings Productions.
The film tells the story of the Brownsville, Brooklyn-based Double Dutch Team Jazzy Jumpers, headed up by Coach Toni Veal, watching as this group — which has, in recent years, attracted national media coverage — works to defend their World Championship title from their headquarters bordering a public housing complex.
This is the first project on which P&g and Indigenous have partnered, as well as the first feature to emerge from 60 Second Docs, the latter’s three-time Webby Award-winning label, which has to date put out around 1,000 short documentaries about the world’s most interesting and unusual characters.

Exclusive: As the Santa Fe Sheriff’s Office continues their investigation of the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on October 21, which also injured director Joel Souza, on the set of the Alec Baldwin movie Rust, new claims and details are emerging of first assistant director, David Halls – including a 2019 complaint against him.
“Dave Halls worked on two films for Blumhouse Television in 2019, and was not rehired after that time,” a Blumhouse TV spokesperson told Deadline today of the First Ad. Two years ago, Halls was on the crew of the “Pure” and “Culture Shock” episodes of the Blumhouse TV anthology series Into the Dark, which was streamed on Hulu. Blumhouse would not say why Halls was not hired again. However, a complaint was lodged on Pure against the First Ad for a lack of respect for the personal space of fellow crew members and other co-workers, we have learned.

When Blumhouse TV approached Hannah Macpherson with the notion of a horror film set in the subculture of purity balls the young filmmaker was more intrigued than informed. “First of all, I had to Google what that was,” the New Mexico native admits. “And then I went down the rabbit hole.”
That rabbit hole led Macpherson into the world of the prom-like purity events where daughters vow to save their virginity for their future husbands and a marriage that’s often arranged by their fathers. For Macpherson, the exploration was instantly inspiring on a creative level but routinely infuriating on a cultural and social level. The result is Pure, the new horror film with themes of gruesome group-think (think of a high school Handmaid’s Tale or a church-camp redux of Midsommar) as well as supernatural menace (Carrie would have been an ideal peer counselor).

Snapchat is the wildly-popular social media platform you're probably not using if you're an old-fogey like me, but with more than 100 million active daily users, it's clearly what the kids are into these days. Now, a famous person whom you probably haven't heard of if you're under 25 -- YouTube star Andrea Russett -- has cleverly used the social media platform to debut an entire feature-length horror film in 10 second snippets (the maximum video length allowed on the service). It truly is a different world. Directed by Hannah Macpherson and shot entirely on iPhones, Sickhouse -- as profiled in a lengthy story/review over at Vulture -- is essentially Blair Witch for the young millenial set, albeit perhaps not up to par, quality-wise, with that 1999 found-footage blockbuster. Here's the summary: In the horror movie Sickhouse, a familiar narrative unfolds: A bunch of teens decide they want to look into some urban legend,...
