The production has assembled a marquee cast for the project, including Vino G. Bastian, Anya Geraldine, and Niken Anjani. The company has now released first-look images that offer a glimpse into the atmospheric world crafted by director Herwin Novianto ('Kang Mak,' 'Miracle in Cell No 7,' 'Fireworks'), who brings a distinctly Indonesian sensibility to the remake while honoring Banjong Pisanthanakun's landmark 2004 Thai horror original.
'We're excited to share the first images from 'Shutter,' which we believe will deliver an intense, emotionally gripping, and visually compelling horror experience,' said Frederica, producer at Falcon Pictures. 'This remake is not only a tribute to Banjong Pisanthanakun's masterful work, but also an expansion of our vision to bring beloved Southeast Asian stories to new audiences with fresh cultural resonance.'
The psychological thriller follows Darwin, a photographer who discovers a mysterious woman appearing in all his photographs. As the spectral figure begins to manifest in real life, his girlfriend Pia investigates the ghost's identity, uncovering connections to a former university student named Lilies. When Darwin's friends start dying, Pia suspects the hauntings are connected to Darwin's past misdeeds.
Currently in post-production, 'Shutter' is expected to hit theaters in late 2025, adding to Falcon's portfolio that includes box office hits 'Warkop DKI Reborn,' 'Dilan 1990,' 'Miracle in Cell No 7,' and 'Comic 8.'
Since its founding in 2010, Falcon Pictures has emerged as one of Indonesia's leading film studios, recently expanding into streaming with its platform KlikFilm, which features original content alongside international festival selections and local releases.Best of Variety

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater - everything we know so far
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. The Metal Gear Solid 3 remake will reintroduce a landmark stealth game series in 4K glory, with all the shine and gleam that comes from a modern remake. Now we've had time to let the announcement trailer marinade a bit, and gawk over the recent gameplay showcase, there are even more reasons to get excited about revisiting one of the most esteemed Metal Gear Solid games ever made. Over twenty years after the release of the original, we expect the remake to recreate a similar experience while boasting more modernized mechanics and visuals. Titled Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, and also being referred to as just 'Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater', the information we have regarding the title right now is fairly substantial, making it one of the most anticipated upcoming games. Thanks to a hands-on event at Gamescom last year, we actually got the chance to play the game. Check out our thoughts in our Metal Gear Solid 3 remake preview. Now that the release date has been fully revealed, we know a fair bit about the game. Here's everything we know about Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake - Cut to the chase What is it? A remaster of the esteemed Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater When does it come out? August 28, 2025 What can I play it on? PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC Who is making it? Konami Metal Gear Solid 3 remake release date and platforms Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake will launch August 28, 2025. This was revealed during a recent State of Play event. Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will come to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Whether or not it'll be available on day one on Xbox Game Pass is also yet to be announced - though news of this could come around, or after, a concrete release date is confirmed. Unfortunately, the game isn't going to receive any last-gen ports, so if you're still rocking older hardware, it might be worth looking to upgrade your setup prior to release if the game is a must-play for you. With how highly praised the original game was, there's a strong chance that once the remake arrives it could fall among not only the best Xbox Series X games, but the best PS5 games too. Metal Gear Solid 3 remake trailers The latest Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater trailer gives an overview of the new online mode. It's called Fox Hunt, and pits players against each other in a deadly game of hide and seek: A trailer for Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake dropped alongside the full release date: Konami dropped a dazzling in-engine look at the game as part of the Xbox Showcase event that aired on June 9, 2024. In it, we see plenty of gameplay, including our first look at The Boss. Check it out below: Before that, there was our first proper look at gameplay. This trailer not only gave us a splendid look at how the game runs and moves, but also showed us some updated shots of iconic parts and areas of the game, from the ruins where Snake finds Sokolov, to the mountaintop trenches, to the swamps with large reptile friends, the rope bridge that houses the climax of the Virtuous mission, and what looks like the location of the boss battle with The Pain. It really does look incredible and looks to be brilliantly brought to life in the Unreal Engine 5. In these short clips, however, we also get a brief look at gameplay with Snake taking cover behind trees to investigate patrolling guards and also eyeing one up to shoot in first-person view. Check it out in all its 4K glory below. Before the above video, we only had one Metal Gear Solid 3 remake trailer in the form of the announcement - and it doesn't give any information away regarding in-game content. Instead, it takes us through an animated rendition of the jungle landscape players of the original Metal Gear Solid 3 may recognize. After following a colony of ants, followed by a bird in flight, and then a large snake and crocodile, we get our first glimpse at Snake. The end of the trailer announces the name Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, but we don't receive anything about platforms or a release date. What we can glean from the trailer though are a bunch of call-backs, nods, and 'easter eggs' which are great fun for existing fans to identify - even if we don't see any in-game action or mechanics. Some specifically good nods are being able to make out the silhouette of the Shagohod in the clouds at the beginning, the parrot almost certainly being The End's companion bird, and the poison dart frog giving a nod to The Fear. Also, as well as the trailer, the official screenshots that have been released make for great viewing too: and importantly seem to indicate that environments and spaces won't be drastically changed, and will get the beautifying treatment while retaining their original layout, style, and features. Metal Gear Solid 3 remake story and setting Since Metal Gear Solid 3 remake is revisiting the original MGS3 game, there are plenty of conclusions we can draw based on what we already know. The majority of the setting of Metal Gear Solid 3 is in a jungle in Russia, during the Cold War, which is echoed through the brief pan we receive in the announcement trailer. The story has been confirmed to remain the same as the original game, so if you've already played the 2004 version, you'll probably know what to expect. But, if you're among the players who are yet to experience what Metal Gear Solid 3 has to offer, and you'd rather now wait for the remake rather than play the original, then the story is still worth brushing up on so you'll be able to experience the high-stakes action without having to learn too much on the spot. MGS3 serves as a prequel to the rest of the saga, and because of this, it lays out the origins of Big Boss, a major character within the series, and walks you through the infiltration of Soviet territory to prevent the construction of a weapon of mass destruction. It becomes your job as 'Naked Snake' to carry out missions (as part of the larger mission at hand) translated through radio messages, boss fights, stealthy espionage action, and to avoid blowing your cover to do what's right. In addition to setting up the series, MGS3 is the first game (despite being a prequel) to stray from the traditional formula of Metal Gear Solid games in terms of its technology, relying more on using the wilderness to your advantage rather than leaning on and defending yourself against high tech. Even though you can use it to your advantage, the wilderness and its ferocious inhabitants are also ready to blow Snake's cover, so you need to stay alert at all times. Metal Gear Solid 3 remake gameplay As mentioned above, the latest in-engine look at the Metal Gear 3 remake also showed off some glimpses of familiar gameplay. We see Snake taking aim in first-person view from long grass, carefully wading through marshes past reptilian beasts, taking cover behind trees and ruins, and also a clear look at the way Snake moves while crouched, walking, climbing, and leaning. We also see a short clip of Snake taking down a guard from behind - the motions are familiar but much more fluid and seamless when compared to the original. Away from what we've seen in that trailer, however, and similarly to the story, we expect the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake gameplay to stick pretty closely to the source material. While the general premise of stealth and combat-heavy interactions is expected to continue, we do expect the newest iteration of the game to feel more polished in comparison to its 2004 counterpart. That said, there could be several mechanics that have been fine-tuned or adapted to make the experience more streamlined and up-to-date. As confirmed in a Tweet posted on the official Metal Gear Solid page, MGS Delta: Snake Eater, is intended to be a 'faithful recreation of the original story and game design, while evolving the gameplay with stunning visuals and a seamless user experience.' Perhaps the game will get similar treatment to the Resident Evil remakes of recent years, with a full overhaul of the camera and mechanics to bring the game into the modern day. The content of the original game was praised for being before its time, so we are keen to see how exactly these are adapted for a more beneficial user experience. Mechanics such as healing were pretty challenging throughout the original and included a lot of in-menu work, but whether or not this will be among the elements being evolved is currently unknown. If there's an aim to make this, in particular, more fluid, then this would be music to the ears of a lot of existing fans, as well as a new audience. While there's still a lot to uncover about how exactly the remake will build upon the foundations set by the original, we aren't going in entirely blind. A new showcase diving into the game's mechanics reveals two ways to play. A legacy mode will allow players to keep classic controls, and a camera view that more closely resembles the original experience. The modern mode offers an over the shoulder third-person shooter feel, matching more modern shooters. Metal Gear Solid 3 remake news Multiplayer mode won't be crossplayKonami has confirmed that Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater's multiplayer mode, Fox Hunt, won't support cross-play between console and PC. Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is getting a new online modeRevealed during the Konami Press Start livestream on June 12, the publisher describes Fox Hunt as a "completely original online battle mode" that will play differently from 2008's Metal Gear Online. Fox Hunt, which is being directed by series veteran Yu Sahara, takes place in the same world as the main game and will offer "hide and seek" mechanics, mixed with stealth and survival elements. Konami provides new deep-dive into the latest trailerThanks to a new Metal Gear Production Hotline video, you can get some additional info, and a breakdown of the latest trailer. You'll see some details on the game's legacy mode, as well as some reveals on how the team has approached voice acting. Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater will feature all the original voices As confirmed in a Tweet, all the original voices from the 2004 Metal Gear Solid 3 will be used in the remake. Rather than inviting voice actors back to re-record lines, the audio will be taken from the original game, which will feed into the honest recreation the remake promises to deliver. Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater announced as part of Sony's State of Play Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, a remake of the 2004 Metal Gear Solid 3, was announced as part of Sony's State of Play on May 24, 2023. Although the trailer showcased no in-game content or information regarding the storyline or a release date, it has been confirmed a remake is in the works. Metal Gear Solid 3 remake Hideo Kojima involvement When the official announcement of the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake came, one of the major things that fans were wondering was whether or not Hideo Kojima himself would be involved. Even though the famous game creator is no longer at Konami and has his own game development studio, the intrigue was still strong as to whether he may consult with the remake or give advice in some capacity - it is one of his games after all, and one of the best he has made. However, as IGN reported after speaking to Konami about the remake earlier this summer. IGN asked about whether Kojima or Yoji Shinkawa - another crucial cog in the Metal Gear Solid series - would be involved. A Konami spokesperson responded plainly by saying that: "They are not involved." So there we have it, clear as day, Hideo Kojima is not involved with the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake.

The 10 Best Horror Movies of 2025 So Far, Ranked
Where will "Sinners," "Weapons" and "Together" land? 2025 has been an unbelievably great year for horror – maybe one of the best ever. Historically, horror has flourished during times of societal or political distress. The torture-filled boon of the 2000s like 'Saw' and 'Hostel' were a response to 9/11 and the 'enhanced interrogation' techniques employed by the United States government. The slasher movie craze of the 1980s was directly related to the repressiveness of the Reagan Era. And so on. (This is why horror was not the best in the Clinton-led 1990s, a time largely defined by peace and prosperity.) More from TheWrap David Geffen Responds to Ex-Husband's 'Ludicrous and Contrived' Lawsuit: 'Petty Gossip and Salacious Lies' Catherine Zeta-Jones Says Husband Michael Douglas' So-Called Retirement Is 'Flexible': 'Never Say Never' The 7 Best New Movies on Hulu Right Now Gal Gadot Says Hollywood 'Pressure' to Speak Against Israel Affected 'Snow White' Box Office | Video But these days, well, the world is a mess. And horror is, as always, trying to process and make sense of it all. And they have done so in spectacular fashion – from new installments in beloved franchises to indie discoveries to startling studio originals, 2025 has had it all. And we have so much left to go. Spooky season isn't even upon us yet! So stay tuned and we will update this list accordingly. For now, these are the very best horror movies of the year (so far). 10. 'Bring Her Back' The sophomore feature from YouTube creators-turned-feature-filmmakers Danny and Michael Philippou is a more somber, disturbing affair, trading in 'Talk to Me's' dark jubilation for a kind of rueful bleakness. Sally Hawkins, in a tour de force performance that might remind you of Toni Collette in 'Hereditary,' plays a woman who adopts two young children – one of whom is partially blind. She already has a foster kid too, who is acting … peculiar. What is going on in this house and what does it have to do with a scratchy tape Hawkins keeps watching? These are some of the mysteries nestled within 'Bring Her Back.' While some found the slow burn nature of the narrative a bit too deliberate, you'll be rewarded for sticking with 'Bring Her Back,' which leads to a blood-soaked downer of an ending as remarkable as anything in their inaugural outing. (Somehow, you'll never look at tables the same way again.) Give 'Bring Her Back' time and it might just become the cult favorite that 'Talk to Me' was out of the gate. 9. 'Together' A horror movie about the terror of codependence, 'Together' stars the real-life husband and wife duo of Dave Franco and Alison Brie, as a young couple who leave the city and head to the country, only to get involved in something far spookier. One of the rare breakouts from this year's Sundance Film Festival, Neon won the rights to the movie after interest from everyone from A24 to Searchlight Pictures. And it's easy to see why – the combination of uncomfortable relationship intimacy and supernatural body horror is genuinely irresistible. Franco and Brie give committed performances and while the lore behind their commingling gets a little fuzzy (it involves a magic well and some cults, just to be clear), it's their relationship, in all its ups and downs, that leads you through. It's got some of the most scream-out-loud moments this year, that's for sure. Deep breath. 8. 'Companion' One of the more underrated horror movies of the year, 'Companion' snuck into theaters early in 2025 and is still one of the year's very best. Written and directed by newcomer Drew Hancock and produced by 'Weapons' filmmaker Zach Cregger, 'Companion' is set in the near future and follows several couples as they spend a weekend away at a country house. This is a fairly typical set-up, especially for a low-budget genre movie, but 'Companion' goes in a startlingly different way – one that was, regrettably, spoiled by early marketing materials – namely that Iris (Sophie Thatcher) is Josh's (Jack Quaid) robot girlfriend. Where the movie goes from there is similarly unpredictable, with a very game cast (including Lukas Gage, Megan Suri, Harvey Guillén and Rupert Friend) fully committing to the bit. Hancock is a smart writer and an even better director, assembling the movie as a series of suspense set pieces, punctuated by timely relationship commentary and, of course, discussion around the dangers of technology and AI. In short, it's the perfect horror movie for now. It should have been huge. 7. 'Final Destination Bloodlines' What a wonderful surprise. Who would have guessed that there was still so much gas left in the 'Final Destination' tank – or that the sixth (!) film would be the second-best in the franchise? From the very beginning, you can tell 'Final Destination Bloodlines' is going to be special. Instead of the typical modern disaster, the setup was something in the past – a late 1960s Space Needle-type restaurant that goes up in flames. We then flash forward to today, as the contours of the story start to take shape. Instead of a group of survivors, who are forced to avoid Rube Goldberg-style death traps, it's an entire family tree. It's a stroke of genius and makes for a much more fulfilling, emotionally resonant movie, as they bicker and fight before getting sucked into a tree shredder (or whatever). Directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein know how to stage these scenes brilliantly but they also understand that you have to care about the characters for their horrible deaths to mean anything. It also has perhaps the best ending of any of the movies – both jubilant and downbeat. There's a reason the movie was a surprise smash, making nearly $300 million worldwide – it's just that good. 6. 'The Monkey' Osgood Perkins made last year's word-of-mouth horror hit 'Longlegs,' a serial killer thriller with occult overtones. And he followed it up with something in the complete opposite direction – a Stephen King adaptation so wacky and blood-soaked that it feels like a movie that you would rent and watch at a slumber party, with all of your buds laughing and screaming at every exploding body and dismembered corpse. Theo James plays the adult version of twins who receive a monkey toy from their father; when they wind it up and the monkey hits its drums, somebody dies in some horrifying way. Years later, one of the twins goes on a quest with his young son to find and destroy the monkey before it causes anymore damage. Perkins said that he was inspired by 1980s classics like 'Gremlins' and 'Creepshow' (another King favorite) and it really does have the kind of freewheeling energy that exemplified those earlier films. It's funny, it's scary, it's out of control. And it speaks to the kind of artistic elasticity of Perkins, as he has quickly proven himself to be one of the most exciting and electric genre filmmakers working today. And his next movie comes out in November! 5. 'Presence' Of course, a horror movie directed by Steven Soderbergh and written by David Koepp would be built around an ingenious concept, on both a technical and narrative level. 'Presence' is a ghost story told from the perspective of the ghost. The entire movie is told from the entity's point-of-view, as it careens around a nondescript house that wouldn't be out of place in the same neighborhood that 'Poltergeist' took place. We watch the drama in the house unfold, between various family members, and start to piece together who the ghost could be and what it is trying to accomplish with this haunting. The performances, led by Lucy Liu and Chris Sullivan as the parents and Callina Liang as the teenage daughter that the entity seems particularly obsessed with, are tender and nuanced and give so much life to a story that could have otherwise been overwhelmed with death. And the shtick of the floating camera never feels like a gimmick, it's key to the understanding of the story and to understand these characters in the way that we do. At 85 minutes, too, the movie never overstays its welcome. 'Presence' is a gift. 4. 'Heart Eyes' Undeniably the most underrated horror movie of the year, 'Heart Eyes' works because its dicey gambit of being a romantic comedy as much as it is a slasher film, is treated seriously and totally works. The Heart Eyes Killer is an infamous masked serial killer who targets lovers on Valentine's Day. And this year the killer is hunting Olivia Holt and Mason Gooding, mistaking them as a committed couple when, in fact, they've only just met. They're forced to survive a very long night as the killer stalks them, while also falling in love. It's a meet-cute that turns into a stay-alive. Both leads are adorable and know exactly the tone that director Josh Ruben and writers Christopher Landon and Michael Kennedy are going for, paying homage to 'Friday the 13th Part VI – Jason Lives' as much as 'When Harry Met Sally.' And the Heart Eyes Killer is a distinct, iconic figure, with the heart-eyes mask and array of gadgets. Beautifully shot by Stephen Murphy and featuring an ace supporting cast that includes Devon Sawa, Jordana Brewster, Michaela Watkins and Gigi Zumbado, 'Heart Eyes' should have been an oversized hit when it was released this Valentine's Day. There should have been an announcement about another sequel already. But here we are, waiting for streaming numbers or other metrics to tip the scales. 'Heart Eyes' should stalk – and swoon – another day. 3. '28 Years Later' A legacy sequence to a movie that still feels cutting edge, director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland returned to the post-apocalyptic wasteland for '28 Years Later,' their first team-up since 'Sunshine.' In the world of '28 Years Later,' Britain is a quarantine zone. ('28 Weeks Later,' made with little involvement from Boyle and Garland, has been deleted from the sacred timeline, so that movie's coda with zombies entering Paris, is no more.) Those indelible images of Cillian Murphy wandering around an abandoned London have been replaced by a small island village off the coast of Great Britain, where a young father (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) is dealing with his precocious son (Alfie Williams) and ailing wife (Jodie Comer). When father and son embark on a mission to the mainland, the movie mutates, first into something resembling a folk horror tale and then into something sweeter and more unexpected, as the son brings his mother to the mainland in search of a doctor (Ralph Fiennes). Taking inspiration from Ken Loach's 1969 coming-of-age film 'Kes' and embroidered by a one-of-a-kind score by Scottish hip hop act Young Fathers, '28 Years Later' has a sensation all its own – if you don't sob through the first act, you might be a heartless zombie. At least the sequel, written by Garland and directed by Nia DaCosta, is just around the corner, arriving in theaters in January 2026. 2. 'Weapons' Zach Cregger's follow-up to 'Barbarian' is an ambitious epic, mixing tones and styles with gleeful abandon. Part of the fun of 'Weapons' is in the way that it slowly reveals its sinister secrets, so we will be brief and opaque when it comes to our description of the movie. But we can say this – in the town of Maybrook, Pennsylvania, a group of kids get up at 2:17 a.m. and leave their homes. Julia Garner plays the teacher of the class of kids, Josh Brolin is one of the fathers and Alden Ehrenreich is the local cop investigating the disappearances, with a bulk of the story taking place a month after the kids went missing. And that's really all you need to know! The way that the narrative unfolds, following various characters as they go through this experience, and the way that Cregger mixes dread and comedy, is absolutely galvanizing. And the movie's thematic undercurrents, about how a community processes grief and explains away violence, makes everything that much more powerful. It's a must-see and one of the year's very best movies. 1. 'Sinners' Leave it to Ryan Coogler, who had amassed an unlimited reservoir of goodwill following his 'Creed' and 'Black Panther' movies, and who decided to utilize that goodwill on a hugely expensive, beautifully photographed passion project – a musical vampire movie, stuffed with symbolism and historic context, that is also one of the most fitfully entertaining movies of the past few years. In 'Sinners' Michael B. Jordan plays the Smokestack Twins, bootlegging brothers who rode with Al Capone for a time but who have returned, in the early 1930s, to their backwater Mississippi town. Their plan is to open a rowdy juke joint. This is an entrepreneurial act, for sure, but also looks to enrich their community by giving the folks working the plantations and the cotton fields somewhere to go after work and be free. Of course that freedom is threatened when a vampire (Jack O'Connell) shows up and looks to turn the revelers into blood-sucking children of the night. 'Sinners' is piled high with themes and ideas, with Coogler exploring everything from the importance of Black business ownership to the (literally) transcendent power of the blues, to vampirism as a cultural force as much as it is a supernatural one. And the fact that all of this stuff doesn't clash with one another, instead building beautifully to something melancholic and unforgettable, is one of the many magic tricks of 'Sinners.' Coogler made a stone-cold masterpiece that defies easy categorization and demands further excavation. Complete with one of the great scores of the year (by Coogler's frequent collaborator Ludwig Göransson), this is one for the ages.

Stephen King Praises Horror Movie As "One Of The Best"
Author Stephen King has contributed to many of the horror genre's most important novels, films, and television endeavors. He's also been a supporter of projects outside of his work. One such project, a 2024 horror movie, was praised by Stephen King for being one of the best horror movies he had seen that year. Obviously this is high praise coming from someone like King, whose own works include the likes of The Shining and Pet Sematary , but this is a film with strong performances and characters that certainly have the ability to match King's own work. In fact, major stars John Lithgow and Geoffrey Rush both star in this unique horror film. While King's tweet praising the film has since been deleted, it has resurfaced online, with several outlets having previously quoted the Carrie author: 'I watched one of the best movies I've seen this year. It's called THE RULE OF JENNY PEN, and I urge you to watch it when it appears on Shudder. Geoffrey Rush stars, with John Lithgow as a geriatric psychopath with an evil hand puppet.' The Rule of Jenny Pen made its initial premiere during Fantastic Fest 2024. It earned a theatrical release in the United States on March 7, 2025, with a digital release on Shudder following on March 28, 2025. As such, fans can easily access the film digitally, with Shudder being a perfect place to stream the title that King recommends so intensely. As mentioned, the film includes some incredible performances by both Lithgow and Rush, with Rush played a former judge that must stop Lithgow's character and his child's puppet from abusing the residents of the rest home they both live in. It's an interesting premise and one that should appeal to horror fans that want something new and different to accommodate their cinematic diet. As always, stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional updates regarding the latest trending titles, including those recommended by the likes of Stephen King such as this 2024 horror movie. The Rule of Jenny Pen is currently available to stream on Shudder and other VOD platforms.
