    Sundance 2013: Live from The ASCAP Cafe!

    Head and the Heart

    For many people, that Sundance experience is all about ten days of both living and breathing films.  Many times, people get so caught up in excessively logging hours in dark theaters, that they completely miss out on another wonderful aspect of this festival–that being the music. Now when I mention “The Music”, I am not [...]




    Sundance 2013 – The 5 Things I Hated About ‘jOBS’: A HeyUGuys Review

    jOBS

    About nine years ago, the Will Smith and Alex Proyas version of Isaac Asimov’s infamous Sci-Fi masterpiece I, Robot was brought to the big screen, at the time I was extremely furious, thinking to myself that there was absolutely no way in hell that Will Smith could ever do justice any Asimov piece.  Regardless I [...]




    Sundance 2013: Award Winners

    Sundance 2013 Logo

    Last night the 2013 Sundance Award Ceremony kicked off with a fancy night of food, drinks, and people giving teary eyed speeches.  The Ceremony itself was hosted by Sundance favorite, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, whose film and directorial debut Don Jon’s Addiction premiered earlier this week. One of the night’s biggest surprises, was Special Audience Award for [...]




    Sundance 2013: Blue Caprice Review

    Blue Caprice

    I wasn’t at all too stoked about checking out Alexandre Moors’ feature length debut Blue Caprice. This was for a few reasons.  First of all, I tend to shy away from films which seem to tap into whatever hot button issue Sundance has chosen to make its programming revolve around.  It’s not that I don’t think [...]




    The HeyUGuys Interview: Sundance 2013 – Indie/Folk Icon Jenny Lewis

    Jenny lewis

    For over a decade Indie songstress Jenny Lewis has quickly shot up the ranks of music stardom, from her early days in Rilo Kiley, to her solo career and beyond. Throughout her career, she’s collaborated with some of the greatest musicians past and present including everyone from Elvis Costello to Conor Oberst.  As an artist [...]




    Sundance 2013 – Stoker Review

    Stoker-Poster

    Eight years ago I walked the frosted Utah streets as a wide-eyed young man, ready for his first taste of the Sundance Film Festival.  It was an interesting year for films here in Park City, and while many of us were taking part in the mind-numbingly harsh hazing process that accompanies ones first trip to [...]




    Sundance 2013 – kink Review

    kink

    For those of us looking for a slight reprieve from dysfunctional family dramas and depressing docs, there is hardly any place better than the Park City at Midnight section of the festival. For years now Midnight programmers have created their own little microcosm that has become renowned for its ecstatic audiences and mind boggling on [...]




    Sundance 2013 – Crystal Fairy Review

    Crystal-Fairy

    When perusing through a film festival programming guide, there is a short list of words that will instantly dissuade me from wanting to see a film.  Two of these are the words Michael Cera.  Now to say that I hate Michael Cera’s entire body of work would be a bit untruthful.  In fact, I can [...]




    Sundance 2013 – Mud Review

    Matthew-McConaughey-in-mud

    When a film like Jeff Nichol’s Mud gets its premiere at Sundance, it immediately becomes the victim of quite a bit of unwarranted slander.  For one thing, the film already has distribution with Lionsgate, and the fact that one of its leading roles is played by the likes of Matthew McConaughey, makes it an easy [...]




    Disney re-enlists Linda Woolverton to scribe Alice in Wonderland sequel

    Alice In Wonderland

    Though the hype surrounding the impending “Mayan Apocalypse” will likely die out after December passes, Lewis Carroll fans will unfortunately have a doomsday of their own to deal with. Of course I could only be talking about the impending Alice In Wonderland sequel that Disney is now planning. We can’t be too surprised by the [...]




    3 New Posters for American Mary

    American-Mary-Poster

    Many of you will have to wait a bit until you get to fully experience the grotesque world of the new Soska Sisters film American Mary, but in the meantime this trio of posters for the UK release of the film should be enough to tide you over for now. For those of you not [...]




    New Picture from Walter Salles’ “On The Road” Surfaces

    Garrett-Hedlund-and-Kristen-Stewart-in-On-the-Road

    Though the Twilight Saga has reached its finishing point (finally), fans of K-Stew won’t have to wait too long before they get to see her once again flash her angsty take on Derek Zoolander’s Blue Steel once more.  Stewart’s newest endeavor puts her under seasoned Director Walter Salles as together they bring Jack Kerouac’s On [...]




    Julius Onah set to Direct New Bad Robot/Paramount Film “The God Particle”

    Julius Onah

    Unless you just so happen to be some OCD laden short film hoarder, it is unlikely that the name Julius Onah will ring any bells.  He’s had a relatively short tenure in the industry and though many film fanatics (myself included) may only greet his name with a blank befuddled stare, his talents have at [...]




    Oscars – 15 Films Announced as the Shortlist for the Documentary Feature Award

    Academy Awards

    The Academy Of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences has made a little bit more progress in it’s ever so exhausting task of narrowing down the top contenders for the Documentary Feature Award. The list, which used to include just over 120 films, has finally been narrowed to a more manageable 15.  Many of the films [...]




    Lincoln Review

    The abhorrent opening scene I mentioned.  For a moment I had thought I stepped into Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter.

    When it comes to American History, there is likely no man more mythical than that of  the country’s 16th President, Abraham Lincoln.  His face has been carved into mountains, plastered on currency, and even been immortalized in a massive Doric-like temple previously reserved for the likes of Greek Gods such as Athena or Hephaestus.  To [...]




    Fantastic Fest 2012: Battle of the Snipers – Cold Steel vs. Tower Block

    Tower Block Poster

    Every year Fantastic Fest is at the forefront of genre film programming, providing a veritable feast of degradation, mutilation and violence to it’s utterly insatiable audiences. Many times you’ll notice a specific thematic trend begin to emerge among the films selected by the fest’s demented programmers.  For instance this year I must have counted at [...]




    Fantastic Fest 2012: ‘Conspiracy’ World Premiere and Review

    Best for Guide_Conspiracy Still 5

    We all probably know somebody like Dennis O’Connor. That sort of crazed aggressive personality eager to jump on you about their theories on 9/11, the Illuminati, and Big Brother.  They spend their days huddled in dark corners lit only by the harsh glow of computer monitors.  They always have some sort of eye-opening tell-all YouTube [...]




    Fantastic Fest Announces it 2012 Award Winners

    Fantastic Fest Award

    Fantastic Fest is almost at its end, which means it’s of course time for the one and only Fantastic Awards! Now I could waste your time for a few paragraphs on the apparent ridiculousness of holding an Award Ceremony at the half-way point of a festival, but instead I’m going to save my tirades for [...]




    Fantastic Fest 2012: Dead Sushi Review

    Dead Sushi

    To those not familiar with the work of Japanese Director Noboru Iguchi, a film about man-eating sushi may seem like the most absurd of all movie premises.  However when one takes into consideration the fact that one of Iguchi’s last Fantastic Fest offerings revolved around evil “toilet” zombies (Zombie Ass)… well, perhaps killer tuna doesn’t [...]




    Fantastic Fest 2012: ‘New Kids Nitro’ US Premiere & Review

    New Kids

    The decision to step into the world of New Kids Nitro was one that was made literally at the last possible second.  Originally, I was content to spend my witching hour with Kim Ji-Woon’s new sprawling apocalyptic guessing game, Doomsday Book.  However while en route, I was assured that unless I was truly looking for [...]
