The Hand That Rocks the Cradle: The TV Show?

In an effort to boost sagging viewership, TV networks are resorting to adapting big-screen movies -- particularly in the horror/suspense realm (see Hannibal, Bates Motel, Dracula) -- but one film no one could've predicted would be the next television target is The Hand That Rocks the Cradle. According to The Hollywood Reporter, however, the hit 1992 "fatal attraction" thriller about an unhinged nanny (Rebecca De Mornay) who tries to take over the mother role in the family that hires her is being developed into a show on the increasingly non-family-friendly cable channel ABC Family.

Contracted Trailer: Catch a Case of the Zombies

There aren't many horror/suspense movies releasing this year between Halloween and the end of the year; in fact, IFC Midnight's Contracted is currently the only one scheduled for November. However, what the calendar lacks in quantity, it might make up for in quality. December's Here Comes the Devil certainly seems promising, and Contracted looks like an intriguing take on zombie lore. It comes from the director of last year's backwoods horror movie Madison County and details a young woman's descent into zombie-dom after contracting a sexually transmitted disease. Who knew zombies get freaky? Check out the cringe-worthy trailer for Contracted, which is available in limited theatrical release and on demand starting November 22.
