Borderlands 2 Includes WASTELANDER PANDA Easter Egg

Posted: 24 Sep 2012 04:01 PM PDT

We're big fans of Wastelander Panda here at Twitch, but it seems the creators of first-person role-playing shooter video game Borderlands 2 are even bigger fans - so much so that they included the apocalyptic panda warrior, Arcayus himself, in the new game. Keen eyed Borderlands 2 players can spot Arcayus in the level called The Dust, stenciled on a wall, and we've grabbed a screenshot of that part in the game for those without it. Wasterlander Panda is about to go into production on its first three episodes. You can view the prologue again below. ...

EXCLUSIVE: Second Teaser For Upcoming Aussie Neo-Giallo Feature SORORAL

Posted: 24 Sep 2012 03:30 PM PDT

Here's the exclusive second teaser for Sororal, Australia's first neo-giallo feature from the creative team at Nakatomi Pictures. Titled 'Visions,' the new teaser is "a tantalising sample of the terror that grips the film's heroine Cassie without warning. The murderous visions themselves are disturbing images but even more frightening is their irresistible power to seize her violently at any moment. Cassie is a hostage to these terrifying visions, forced to witness a killer's bloodlust without the capacity to disconnect from, or 'un-see' these brutal killings."Director Sam Barrett is fond of the psychic captive concept. "The psychic witness is something we borrowed and re-mixed from several sources. Bava's The Girl Who Knew Too Much, Don't Look Now and Eyes of Laura Mars all played a part in the...

Fantastic Fest: Javier Diment Drunkenly Reviews Javier Diment's LA MEMORIA DEL MUERTO

Posted: 24 Sep 2012 03:15 PM PDT

This is ua horror film of perono is a horror movie. It's something else. Is a series of family dramas, is also the will to find that the horror genre is just a way to talk of human pain. Really bored I think horror movies that only think of the pure effect of the blood running. I like to think back to the real and pure fun can also mention the more real human horror. Then there is, inevitably, that pollute the genre. You should go also to what the intent sneak genre, which is the body and the history of particular human animal. We are a inmiundo bug. It is incredible that there are murderers and innocent people. We are a horrible mixture of...

Soska Sisters To Crash Monster Fest 2012!

Posted: 24 Sep 2012 03:02 PM PDT

After surgically enhancing the pleasure nodes of Fantastic Fest audiences, and then fighting each other in the Fantastic Feud boxing ring, Jen and Sylvia Soska have announced they will be accompanying their body modification horror American Mary to Melbourne for more mayhem at Monster Fest 2012. Put together by the folks at Monster Pictures in partnership with Melbourne's iconic Cinema Nova, Monster Fest is shaping up to be the genre festival we've always wanted here but never quite got.

Fantastic Fest 2012 Review: FLICKER Reinvigorates Swedish Ensemble Comedies

Posted: 24 Sep 2012 01:15 PM PDT

A delightfully droll ensemble comedy, Flicker (AKA Flimmer) comfortably mixes laugh-out-loud moments with empathetic observations about life in a moderately-sized Swedish town that is dominated by a telecommunications company. Writer/director Patrick Eklund presents a cross-section of people whose lives are disrupted by a temporary power outage. The town of Backberga is home to Unicom, now run by Tord (Kjell Bergqvist), the founder's son. A poker-faced, ineffectual executive, Tord is feeling pressure from the board of directors, who are expecting big things from Unicom's implementation of 4G service. Unfortunately, Tord doesn't seem to have a strong instinctual feeling for business or for people; in the recent past, he approved a woefully misguided -- but very funny! -- advertising campaign, and in the present moment, casually ignores...

Review: HUNGARIAN RHAPSODY - QUEEN LIVE IN BUDAPEST

Posted: 24 Sep 2012 11:00 AM PDT

It's fair to say that a concert documentary isn't always everyone's cup of tea. For all those that will go to a live show, the thought of spending a few hours watching performers prance on stage in the comfort of their homes, let alone on the big screen, is offputting to say the least.When done well (think The Last Waltz, or Gimme Shelter to name but two) the show itself takes on extra meaning given the importance of the historic occasion, or the particular impact of the band at that part in their career.Hungarian Rhapsody doesn't quite live up to those lofty heights, but it's interesting for a few other reasons. First, it's the last major tour that Freddie Mercury ever did with the band....

Jason Gorber's Cineruminations: 70mm, 4K, and THE MASTER's Split Personality

Posted: 24 Sep 2012 10:01 AM PDT

Ever since Paul Thomas Anderson announced that he'd be shooting The Master for large format celluloid presentation, many of us have been drooling at the prospect of a modern, epic 70mm masterpiece slipping out of Hollywood. It's been 16 years since anyone had the chutzpah to shoot a feature film on 65mm neg (Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet for those keeping track), and given PTA's proclivities for all things analogue, this bravado move seemed a natural fit. When it screened at the Princess of Wales theatre in Toronto, using decades-old projectors rescued from the Cinesphere (the world's first IMAX theatre), it was a fitting marriage of the technology of large format presentation with a venue slightly pretentious, certainly ornate, and ripe for a fine cinematic experience. I...

THE BABADOOK Releases First Look

Posted: 24 Sep 2012 09:30 AM PDT

I love it when I hear news that a female director is taking on a genre such as horror, as this pairing always seems to draw different things from the material than one normally sees. Just recently, the Soska Sisters seem to have knocked it out of the park with American Mary, and boiling away in Australia are several genre projects with female directors at the helm that I'm getting excited about. One of these is The Babadook, a psychological horror from writer/director Jennifer Kent, about a single mother (Essie Davis) who becomes possessed by a monster that wills her to kill her 6-year-old son. The film also stars Daniel Henshall, last seen in Snowtown. It's currently filming in South Australia, and has released some early stills from the film on...

Tebana Sankichi in is a feature-length shorts made ​​by independent production 20 years ago. Tebana Sankichi is a comedy, rather than the usual comedy, it is a work that depicted the successive episodes put on rock music of the 70's in Japan. I want you to look at the sense of a radio DJ.
