Oscar Redding Leads GALORE Cast

Posted: 05 Nov 2012 04:00 AM PST

Hot on the heels of news that Mark Leonard Winter is leading the cast of One Eyed Girl, we hear that his fellow Van Diemen's Land cannibal buddy Oscar Redding is one of the lead cast in Galore, a drama which also begins shooting this week in Australia.This is great news for all us fans of Van Diemen's Land - not to mention the police and penis webseries Cop Hard, which Oscar wrote and co-directed. Great to see him getting his due up on the big screen again. Shot in the Australian capital, Canberra, Galore follows four teenagers whose lives are thrown together late one night ahead of the devastating bushfires of 2002. Oscar is obviously not playing one of the teenagers. Written and directed by Ryhs...

Posted: 05 Nov 2012 03:30 AM PST

Brontis Jodorowsky, yes, the son of the infamous Alejandro Jodorowsky, is starring in Táu, the feature film debut from director Daniel Castro Zimbron. A man travels to the desert of Wirikuta and confronts his deepest pain. We have the trailer for your perusal, and it seems as though that one-line synopsis is fairly accurate. The film is making its rounds on the festival circuit, having just played at Morelia International Film Festival in Mexico. ...

Watch Denis Rovira Van Boekholt's Short Film EL GRIFO (THE FAUCET)

Posted: 05 Nov 2012 01:30 AM PST

In the late 80s and early 90s the catchphrase from a commercial for a medical alarm and protection company called LifeCall was "I've fallen and I can't get up!" Thus, almost immediately, a life-saving service for the elderly became the punchline for jokes and comedy sketches around the world. Fast forward twenty years later and no one is joking about Denis Rovira Van Boekholt's short film El Grifo (The Faucet); the story of a lone elderly man who find himself in a spot of trouble while his daughter and her family leave for the weekend. In fact, nearly everywhere the short played it has earned high praise and awards. And now that its festival run is drawing to the close we are pleased to share...

Celluloid Screams 2012, Day 2: CITADEL Is A Towering Achievement

Posted: 04 Nov 2012 12:00 PM PST

Round two of Sheffield's Celluloid Screams 2012 saw the first full day's lineup, and though the crowds were obviously getting a little weary by the midnight hour the Showroom still managed at least one completely sold-out screening and several more that met rapturous applause from a packed house. Sadly, my duties on the short films jury meant I completely missed the morning events - no Manborg for me, no 25th anniversary screening of Argento's Opera, and after 3 hours of 18 short films back-to-back (more on those separately) I wasn't up to facing Dennison Ramalho's short films, more's the pity. Still, there was plenty left.The retro horror anthology V/H/S operates on a fairly dumb conceit that doesn't make a whole lot of sense, it's overly...

Celluloid Screams 2012, Day 1: NIGHTBREED: THE CABAL CUT - It's Alive! It's Aliiiiive!

Posted: 04 Nov 2012 06:55 AM PST

Sheffield residents like their pop culture, apparently - not too surprising when you take into account the city's history. (It was the birthplace of the mighty Warp record label, for one, which begat any number of world-famous electronic artists and influenced countless more.) Celluloid Screams is a relatively small festival in the grand scheme of things but visitors were consistently packing into (even selling out) screenings at the Showroom. This was a quiet, fairly cosy but very professional venue - the charm of some storied little independent place but the polish of the better big chain cinemas or upscale arthouse establishment. The crowd was a little lighter on long hair, metal or grindhouse tees - a few more sharp suits or grey heads. No compromises...

Astron-6's FATHER'S DAY Banned In Oz!

Posted: 04 Nov 2012 06:30 AM PST

Australian Classification, the government agency responsible for the classification of films, publications and computer games has given Astron-6's horror-comedy Father's Day the dreaded RC (Refused Classification). It can no longer be legally screened or distributed in Australia. The agency assessed the film as belonging to a category of films that "depict, express or otherwise deal with matters of sex, drug misuse or addiction, crime, cruelty, violence or revolting or abhorrent phenomena in such a way that they offend against the standards of morality, decency and propriety generally accepted by reasonable adults to the extent that they should not be classified".The film had already be screened at the A Night of Horror International Film Festival in Sydney back in March and was scheduled to screen during Monster...
