Last month, we heard that the slasher Unhinged (not to be confused with the Russell Crowe thriller) was going to be getting a second remake. The film, first released in 1982, received a remake back in 2017 that was produced by Scott Jeffrey, Rebecca J. Matthews, and Louisa Warren, with Jeffrey also writing the screenplay. Jeffrey, Matthews, and Warren are also behind the new remake – and it has now been revealed that the third version of Unhinged finished filming earlier this month!
Matthew B.C. (H.P. Lovecraft’s Monster Portal) directed the new Unhinged from a screenplay by Harry Boxley (Mary Had a Little Lamb). The film follows four young women who, after a traumatic confrontation with a stalker, are forced to take refuge with an eccentric older man and his bed-bound wife; a couple who quickly showcase troubling behaviors.
Ella Starbuck (Witch), Jase Rivers (Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey), and Toby Wynn-Davies (Dogged) star.

The slasher Unhinged (not to be confused with the Russell Crowe thriller) isn’t a movie you hear referenced very often, but the 1982 release definitely seems to have captured the imagination of filmmaker Scott Jeffrey and Rebecca J. Matthews. Jeffrey just wrote and, with Matthews, produced a remake of Unhinged back in 2017 – and now our friends at Bloody Disgusting have broken the news that a second remake of Unhinged is now in the works, with Jeffrey and Matthews producing again.
Directed by Don Gronquist, who wrote the screenplay with Reagan Ramsey, the 1982 version of Unhinged had the following synopsis: Three college girls on their way to a jazz festival crash their car in the isolated woods during a rainstorm and are taken in by a mysterious family in an old mansion. Little do the girls know, the family has a dark, murderous secret.

A 1982 slasher film directed by Don Gronquist, it was one of the many titles to be pulled from distribution for obscene content. In the United Kingdom, it became known as one of the infamous ‘video nasties’ along […]

There are horror movies that I would watch just because they were named on the Video Nasty list, this is because I’ve always had an interest in these movies, censorship and what it actually took in the 80s to get a film banned. 88 Films have released Unhinged this week, a film that made the “nasties” list even though it was doing well before it fell victim to the moral majority. The questions are just why was it banned, and also more importantly is it any good?
The plot goes something like this: Three college girls are going to a music concert and end up taking a wrong turn. Crashing their car during a rainstorm they find themselves in an old family mansion with an overbearing mother,...

Ask any self-respecting slasher buff about the genre’s ‘golden age’ and they will doubtlessly wax poetic about the plasma-packed pot-boilers of the 1980s – the decade of destruction that gave us Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger and the transsexual teen-tormenter of the Sleepaway Camp series. Given the label’s name, what better way for 88 Films to celebrate this halcyon era of horror than with a series of numbered and collectible sanguine-splashed shockers from the period of VHS and video nasties?
88 Films is proud to announce the launch of a new “Slasher Classics” line – kicking off with a digitally re-mastered DVD release of Don Gronquist’s notorious censor-baiting backwoods sickie Unhinged (1982). Further fearful fun will be delivered with Don’t Go in the Woods (1981) – the effortlessly enjoyable “hunt ‘em and kill ‘em” epic that once had British authorities outlawing its very exhibition!
