This July Fantasia will follow up on this by launching the hotly anticipated adaptations of the celebrated author’s work: Anthony DiBlasi’s DREAD (World Premiere), and John Harrison’s BOOK OF BLOOD (North American Premiere). If [...]

Yes, he was the punchline of about a quarter-million Tonight Show jokes. But Michael Jackson’s stop-on-a-dime dance moves and sensual soprano have influenced generations of musicians, dancers and entertainers, and the man was so much more than what the tabloids made him out to be. One of entertainment’s greatest icons, he was incredibly [...]

The gangster film is an American institution, like churches that look like Dennys and creationism museums. And every era has its own sub-genre, from the film noir of the forties to the Mafia films of the seventies, to straight to DVD releases starring guys from Death [...]
This past weekend saw the inimitable Michael Bay releasing (unleashing?) his latest upon filmgoers, his sequel to 2007’s summer smash / Hasbro tie-in, “Tranformers,” entited “Revenge of the Fallen.” Al, Ali, Rick and Simon are all present to take on this colossal enterprise. So if you’ve ever wondered what Mr. Bay has in [...]

The trailer for the Ricky Gervais written and directed comedy The Invention of Lying (orginaly titled The Other Side of the Truth)look to be promising. With a great cast (that includes Tina Fey, Rob Lowe, Jonah Hill, Christopher Guest, Jason Bateman, and Jenifer Garner) this film looks conventional enough to attract a mainstream audience while still [...]
It’s been over a month since Steven Soderbergh’s last release The Girlfriend Experience. So it’s about time we got a look at his latest film The Informant starring Matt Damon. Expecting a Michael Clayton style drama I was pleasantly surprised the film is being billed as a black comedy. The Trailer has a couple real [...]
Micmacs à tire-larigot is the new film from Amelie auteur Jean-Pierre Jeunet. It’s his first film since his 2004 international hit A Very Long Engagement. His latest looks to be a return to his early more aggressive visual style of something like Delicatessen. The Visuals are as strong as ever, as one would expect from [...]
This year’s Sundance sensation Humpday is finally making its way into a limited release. The comedy, billed as the bromance to end all bromances, is the third feature from Mumblecore veteran Lynn Sheldon (following My Effortless Brilliance). The story revolves around two old college buddies decide (after lots of booze) to enter an [...]
The New French trailer for Quentin Tarantino’s Inglorious Basterds is quite an improvement for the American. Mostly (in my opinion) because there is less Brad Pitt. But the editing is sharper, it’s funnier and we get a better idea of the large scope of the story. American audiences seem to be getting sold the action [...]
Daybreakers is the upcoming vampire film written and directed by Peter and Michael Spierig. The film stars Ethan Hawke, Willem Dafoe and Sam Neill. Edward Dalton is a researcher in the year 2019, in which an unknown plague has transformed the world’s population into vampires. As the human population nears extinction, vampires must [...]
Looks like Tarantino isn’t the only filmmaker working on grindhouse Nazi war films. Director and horror fanatic Shaun Robert Smith is in development on his next feature, The Fourth Reich, a terrifying adventure built on the Nazi human experiments during the war.
Shaun’s runaway success of The Soldier, his 2007 award winning short attracted some attention [...]
