Here’s a couple of brand new and exclusive images from Twentieth Century Fox’s new movie, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter which sounds like something we’ve made up but I assure you we haven’t! The film is directed by the man who brought us Wanted, Timur Bekmambetov and stars Dominic Cooper, Anthony Mackie, Benjamin Walker, Mary Elizabeth [...]
Abraham Lincoln, lawyer, statesman, president. He lived a long and varied life but until now little has been said of how throughout his illustrious life he moonlighted as a vampire hunter, taking out the supernatural trash while keeping a steady hand on the tiller of his numerous responsibilities. Seth Grahame-Smith’s follow up to his best-selling [...]
Remember the times critics have said that they like it when films let the audience find the horror in their own imagination? To keep that latex monstrosity of a monster in the shadows lest we see it’s horribly unhorrifying latex moulded face? To keep that particularly traumatic scene off-screen so that we can think ourselves [...]
Ever since we got our first look at Emile Hirsch in the upcoming alien invasion/apocalyptic film The Darkest Hour back in the summer, I’ve been getting excited for its release at the start of next year. Since then, we’ve seen the film’s first trailer, some incredible concept art, and a whole host of other awesome [...]
The second of Seth Grahame-Smith’s best-selling mash-up novels, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter has found better traction on its path to the big screen than his earlier novel, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, and is currently in post-production having filmed earlier this year. We got our first look at photos from the set back in April, [...]
Here’s the second trailer for The Darkest Hour which oddly is only one minute long and appear to be more like a TV Spot than it does a full on trailer. The first trailer was 2.5 minutes long and showed us much more but this one still has me keen to go and see the [...]
I have a really good feeling about The Darkest Hour. So far, everything we’ve seen from it has been pretty excellent, and it just gives off a great vibe. (Post-)Apocalyptic films seem to be coming in their dozens in the past few years (and obviously beyond that too), but this one looks to be one [...]
It’s been a little while since we’ve seen something new from one of the several upcoming post-apocalyptic films, The Darkest Hour, but what we have seen so far (all of which you can catch up on here) has been pretty damn brilliant. The film certainly seems to have created something visually awesome, even innovative, which [...]
20th Century Fox have sent over this fab motion poster for their new movie, The Darkest Hour which is directed by Chris Gorak, produced by Timur Bekmambetov and Tom Jacobson and stars Emile Hirsch, Olivia Thirlby, Max Minghella, Rachael Taylor. The movie hits UK cinemas 13th January and US cinemas on Christmas day. Synopsis: The DARKEST [...]
On a classified mission to the moon, tasked with planting detectors as part of an early warning system for ICBM attacks on the USA, cosmonauts Commander Nathan Walker and Captain Benjamin Anderson depart Freedom to land the lunar module Liberty on the moon’s surface. Unable to sleep and the subject of certain mysterious goings on, [...]
There is just one more day to go until we get to find out exactly why we never went back to the Moon with Gonzalo López-Gallego’s Apollo 18′s searing indictment on the socio-political consequences of NASA budget cutbacks. Or more likely it’ll be a lunar version of Paranormal Activity which is pretty much what is [...]
Moon based stalk/scare frenzy Apollo 18 has the intriguing premise of a secret lunar mission with unknown nasties attacking the astronauts, however despite a few well designed early teases the more we’ve seen of this film the more generic it’s looking. Secret ‘found’ footage gimmicks and conspiracy craziness swirl around this but it won’t be [...]
Here’s a few new TV spots for the rather eerie movie that is Apollo 18. It’s produced by Timur Bekmambetov who directed Angelina Jolie in Wanted and this movie is directed by Gonzalo López. It recently got picked by by the Weinstein company so we’re expecting it to be rather good. Officially, Apollo 17, launched [...]
We got our first look at Emile Hirsch in the upcoming sci-fi action thriller, The Darkest Hour, last month and it was a pretty nice introduction to the film. Then Comic-Con furnished us with some great concept art, and we got an absolutely awesome first trailer just a few days ago. Some more brilliant concept [...]
When Monsters came out last year, it instantly became one of my favourite British films of all time. To me, writer and director Gareth Edwards made a masterpiece with his feature debut. He then signed on to direct Legendary Pictures’ new Godzilla film earlier this year, with David Goyer (The Dark Knight, Blade) currently rewriting [...]
This is more like it. Yesterday’s Wasp in a Spacesuit poster for Apollo 18 was far too obvious, not at all scary and when you’re setting up your audience to be intrigued and then scared out of their pants you need to learn the noble art of the tease. This paranormal activity in space should [...]
The more I see of the marketing for Apollo 18, the Moon bound Blair-Witch esque scarefest, the less I’m caught in its orbit. I’m on board for the basic premise of a secret Apollo mission and the notion that there’s sinister at play out there but, while the first posters made the most of the [...]
Found footage horror Apollo 18 just got its second trailer and the mystery of what really* happened to the Apollo 18 lunar mission deepens accordingly Gonzalo López directs a script from Brian Miller and the name on the poster you may know is that of filmmaker Timur Bekmambetov who jumped aboard with his Executive Producing [...]
This is really nothing more than a brief look at Benjamin Walker as the 16th President of the United States in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and while several of the assembled do seem as if they are moments away from taking their own first steps in the life beyond it’s a fairly sedate first look [...]
Seth Grahame-Smith has certainly found his literary-supernatural soupy-twists to be a fairly lucrative career move, such is the popularity of his Zombie insertion into Jane Austen’s bonnets and bodices or the film in question here – the fantastical alternate history of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Timur Bekmambetov has already bagged Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Dominic Cooper, [...]
