You can enter THE WARD on June 8 on VOD
John Carpenter took an extended hiatus from film-making (not counting two Masters of Horror episodes), before tackling his newest project The Ward. Though the horror legend hasn’t tackled a feature length project since 2001’s Ghosts of Mars (God, I’m starting to feel old), fans are still excited to see the director’s newest offering. Shock Till You Drop got the news that The Ward will be released on VOD on June 8 followed by a theatrical release starting July 8. The Ward is a psychological thriller that stars Amber Heard as a teenager who gets put away in psychiatric hospital in 1960’s.

Somewhere between growing up on a steady diet of Saturday morning trips to the local comic-book shop, collecting an unhealthy amount of action figures, and frequent viewings of Ray Harryhausen and Hammer Horror films, came forth a nerdy boy that was torn between journalism and the arts. In high school, Michael found himself writing a movie column for the school newspaper. Yet, he went on to get a BFA in Studio Art at Webster University. When not writing about films, you can still find him discussing classic horror, collecting action figures, and reading Batman. Clearly, not much has changed.
