A glasshouse filled with artworks, including Francesco Celemente, Julian Schnabel, Rob Pruitt, Daniel Subkoff, Adam McEwen, Tabor Robak and Dan Colen, curated by Urs Fischer, is more than merely backdrop in Tara Subkoff's piercing #Horror, to what happens to six 12-year-olds (Sadie Seelert, Haley Murphy, Bridget McGarry, Blue Lindeberg, Mina Sundwall, Emma Adler), one wintry afternoon. While the adults, Timothy Hutton, Lydia Hearst, Chloë Sevigny, Natasha Lyonne, Balthazar Getty, Taryn Manning, Stella Schnabel and Annabelle Dexter-Jones orbit in a world of their own.

At the Museum of Modern Art première of Tara Subkoff's sharp-witted #Horror, Timothy Hutton spoke to me about the art (curated by Urs Fischer) and parenting, and Lydia Hearst made a Drew Barrymore out of Wes Craven's Scream comparison, as Chloë Sevigny, Balthazar Getty, Taryn Manning, Stella Schnabel, Annabelle Dexter-Jones, Natasha Lyonne, Sadie Seelert, Haley Murphy, Bridget McGarry, Blue Lindeberg, Mina Sundwall and Emma Adler walked the red carpet.
Wes Anderson favorite Waris Ahluwalia (The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Darjeeling Limited, The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou) confided to me that Rob Zombie's The Devil's Rejects and House Of 1000 Corpses are the two horror films he loves and at the Players Club after party confirmed he now has three.
Timothy Hutton: "The cyberbullying is what the movie is about.

Part Reefer Madness for the plugged-in generation, part Giallo slasher, and part coming-of-age psychodrama, #Horror is filled with the type of craziness that sounds like it would make it a shoe-in for genre festivals across the globe. But alas, it’s incredibly dull, and for every gonzo tangent into an enigmatic snuff film social network, there’s multiple other sequences that are so ineptly directed that a sense of atmosphere or narrative momentum seems purely accidental.
Split inexplicably down the middle of its thin running time between an avant-chic artist named Alex Cox (Chloë Sevigny) on an all-day sojourn away from her crumbling marriage to a famous modern artist (think Jeffrey Koons), and a violently escalating sleepover at their mansion hosted by her daughter, #Horror proves early on that it has no sense of how to bridge these halves.
Her daughter is Sofia, a social media-obsessed, emotionally-neglected 12-year-old who overjoys...

As bullying seems to have reached disturbing new heights, it’s refreshing to see movies other than Drillbit Taylor attempt to capture the ever-changing landscape of emotional and physical harassment. Some Kind Of Hate deals with a victim’s mindset, and The Gift tackles a bully’s inevitable future, but Tara Subkoff’s #Horror deals with the most prevalent method of new-age harassers – cyberbullying.
Subkoff’s subtext is loaded with commentary about a generational problem that sees electronic devices glued to younger hands, as socialization has now migrated online where crops are shared, candy is crushed, and insults can be hurled from behind the safety of a glowing screen. Kudos to Ms. Subkoff for spreading awareness of an all-too-real horror story, but I’m not sure the artistic chaos of #Horror translates into an emotional arthouse piece that pulls no punches.

Intruder alert, intruder alert! Adam Schindler's Intruders will be released on VOD and have a limited U.S. theatrical release this January. Also in this round-up: Derek's interview with #Horror writer/director Tara Subkoff, new holiday horror apparel from Cavity Colors and details on Zombie Fight Club on Blu-ray and DVD.
Exclusive #Horror Interview with Writer/Director Tara Subkoff:
Tara, thanks for taking the time to talk with us. How did you come up with the idea for #Horror?
Tara Subkoff: Someone asked me to write a horror film after they saw a short piece I directed with Lydia Hearst for Bb. I was doing a capsule collection with them and I really thought to do this strange little piece that I shot at Carrie Fisher’s house. It was very mysterious and film noir. It was a big success and a lot of people wanted me...
