End of Watch Blu-Ray Review

End of Watch

Having grown up as a teen on the troubled streets of South Central Los Angeles, writer and director David Ayer is fast becoming the best chronicler of the crime, social injustice and random violence that forever plagues the city of angels. Since writing the screenplays for Training Day and Dark Blue, Ayer has turned to [...]




Community DVD Review

Community DVD

Setting back society by demonizing the working classes all over again is writer/director Jason Ford and his film Community, which is definitely not to be confused with the feel good US series now in its fourth season. Ford’s film is another attack on a country where the gulf between the haves and have not’s has never [...]




Pusher Blu-Ray Review

Pusher Poster

Remakes usually strike whilst the iron is hot when it comes to popular foreign films. The Ring for example came out within four years of the release of the Japanese original and the same with The Grudge. So it’s curious that a British remake of a low-key 1996 Danish thriller should only now be making its [...]




House at the End of the Street DVD Review

House at the End of the Street Jennifer Lawrence

Unbelievably once upon a time House at the End of the Street was a directorial project for Jonathan Mostow with Richard Kelly writing the screenplay, but this was back in 2003 before both Terminator 3 and Southland Tales. You could argue about what the better choice was in terms of both moving on but it [...]




The Double DVD Review

The Double DVD

Imagine if in The Usual Suspects, that great twist that nobody saw coming regarding the identity of Keyser Soze, the criminal genius pulling the strings was revealed twenty minutes into the film. Maybe if this had been the case we wouldn’t know any differently and the film would still be hailed as one of the [...]




Revisiting Lynch – Part Four: Fire Walk With Backlash and 21st Century Noir

David-Lynch

With the series over and having made a decision to not leave Twin Peaks just yet, David Lynch set about making a prequel to the TV series as part of a newly signed four picture deal with production company CIBY 2000. Much of the cast would be reprising their roles from the series to tell [...]




13 DVD Review

13 movie poster

The original 13 Tzameti which came out in 2006 was a stripped down, black and white tense thriller that relied on its central gimmick of an underground game of Russian roulette as the main draw to the film. It was successful at what it set out to do and remains one of the most tense and [...]




How I Spent My Summer Vacation DVD Review

How I Spent My Summer Vacation

The distribution and reception to Mel Gibson’s latest starring role in How I Spent My Summer Vacation (aka Get the Gringo) is a real sign of just how far this former box office king has fallen. The film played for barely a week in UK cinemas and went direct to DVD in the states. Even [...]




ID:A DVD Review

ida

ID:A starts off with what feels like a very familiar cinematic predicament. A woman awakes with amnesia, to find herself laying in a river, wounded, with nothing but the clothes on her back, and a duffel bag. She makes her way to the nearest town, and finds a hotel room to hole up in whilst [...]




House of the Rising Sun Blu-ray Review

House of the Rising Sun

Yet another professional wrestler tries to make the leap into acting. This time around, it is former WWE champion Dave Batista, credited under his real name of Dave Bautista. Having won every major title available in that federation, breaking records in the process, it is easy to see why he would want a career change. [...]




New Poster for Underworld Awakening

Underworld Awakening Banner

Here’s a rather nice new poster for Underworld Awakening which comes from the film’s Facebook Page via Latino Review. I have to admit, I’ve never actually made it through an Underworld movie (any of them!) without falling asleep! This fourth installment sees the return of Kate Beckinsale to the franchise after going AWOL in the [...]




Escape From Madness – Pre-Production Promo Video

Escape From Madness screengrab

Escape From Madness is a British psychological thriller set against the background of some of the darkest events of the Second World War and in particular events surrounding Himmler, Hitler’s right-hand man, as director Peter J Everett explains: “Himmler believed that the war could be won by using occultism and black magic.” Rather than taking an Indiana Jones-style approach to [...]




Gritty Poster, Image and Synopsis for ‘The Holding’

theholding still

As the road to the EFM begins to heat up expect a lot of sales related stuff to appear online, like the first image, synopsis and poster art for Susan Jacobson’s new survival thriller, The Holding.  The movie stars Vincent Regan (300), David Bradley (Harry Potter), and Kierston Wareing (Fish Tank). For some reason Iam [...]




Trailer for Japanese Thriller ‘Golden Slumber’

golden slumber

This past summer I attended the New York Asian Film Festival in which a plethora of fantastic Asian films were screened for wild audience members like myself.  Unfortunately, due to time restrictions and probably lack of money, I wasn’t able to attend all of the screenings that I wanted to, one of which was the screening [...]




‘Underworld 4: New Dawn’ Plot Details Emerge

Well it looks like the team behind Underworld has decided to take a hint from, what I would like to call, its sister franchise, Resident Evil, by making a fourth film, in 3D of course. Both films have female action leads that are not only hot but also kick some major ass resulting in a fun [...]




Synopsis for Taylor Lautner’s ABDUCTION

Set to hit theaters at some point in 2011, Taylor Lautner’s new thriller, Abduction, is finally making some fresh moves with the release of its officially synopsis.  Yesterday, Collider revealed the synopsis along with the first image for the film but unfortunately they were asked to take it down. The film, which is directed by [...]




Latest Poster for Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale

rare exports poster version 3

So I think this is the third Rare Exports poster that we have seen and for me, it is probably my favorite.  I’m always a fan of hand drawn posters but this one, if it is hand drawn, seems to seam together the creepiness of the film with the spirit of the holiday season much better than [...]




‘The Divide’ Poster Reflects on the End of the World

The Divide Poster

Xavier Gens’ apocalyptic sci-fi thriller, The Divide, has just released its first poster via IMPA.  Gens, responsible for films like Hitman and Frontier(s), is hoping to continue the improvement of his films with his latest high concept endeavor where to survive the end of the world, [everyone] must first survive each other.  It’s a simple yet effective [...]




Thriller: The Movie?

Thriller

Michael Jackson may have shuffled off this mortal coil more than a year ago, but interest in him and his music is still very much alive. GK Films are currently in negotiations for the rights to his hit song Thriller, which they plan to weave into a feature length narrative. Little is known about the [...]




The French Claim this Poster in the Name of Johnny Depp

tourist poster french

Although the film is based in Italy, the studios decided the French should have their own boring poster.  You know they only did it because Depp lives there.  I’m just kidding my French friends, we love you all. Below you will find the rather bland and ordinary French poster for the upcoming “comedy-drama thriller,” The Tourist, starring [...]
