I\u2019ve been keeping an eye out for that over the course of my career, and I wanted to do something even scarier and more imaginative. I wanted to top my other two horror films.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI put everything I hadn\u2019t tried into this film. I hope that fans of my work will recognize my touch. But we have dreams; we have deadly hallucinations. We have body swaps; we have literal time travel. It\u2019s fun in that regard, but number one is to scare\u00a0the hell out of\u00a0people, and I think we\u2019ve done that, too.\u201d Russell continued in our chat from last summer.<\/p>\n<p>The brand new trailer and key art below indicate a vastly different experience from the 1986 cult horror film. Iseman stars as Emily, who, along with her fianc\u00e9 and a group of their friends, open an organic caf\u00e9, refurbishing an old carriage house in New Orleans\u2019 French Quarter. But a darkness descends over Emily when she discovers an ancient pendulum board, once used to summon spirits. It\u2019s safe to say that Emily\u2019s soul may be at risk.<\/p>\n<p>Witchboard is\u00a0 rated \u201cR\u201d for \u201cstrong bloody violence, gore, language, drug content, some sexual content and brief nudity.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"3885349\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bloody-disgusting.com\/movie\/3885347\/witchboard-trailer-conjures-a-vengeful-occult-nightmare-in-remake-from-chuck-russell\/attachment\/unnamed-535\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bloody-disgusting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/unnamed-13-scaled.jpg?fit=1728%2C2560&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1728,2560\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"unnamed\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bloody-disgusting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/unnamed-13-scaled.jpg?fit=203%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bloody-disgusting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/unnamed-13-scaled.jpg?fit=691%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-3885349\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/unnamed-13.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"691\" height=\"1024\"  \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Blob and A Nightmare on Elm Street: Dream Warriors director Chuck Russell is back this year with\u00a0Witchboard,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":11521,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[12369,12370,171,12371,53,67,132,68,12372],"class_list":{"0":"post-11520","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-charlie-tahan","9":"tag-chuck-russell","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-madison-iseman","12":"tag-movies","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-unitedstates","15":"tag-us","16":"tag-witchboard"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114739980942424270","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11520"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11520\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11521"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
