Posted: 27 Aug 2013 04:20 PM PDT

One film that's generating a good amount of pre-TIFF buzz is the Hawkins brothers' Texas teen heist thriller We Gotta Get Out Of This Place. Now the awesome-sounding flick has got a gorgeous poster to go along with it, painted by Eisner Award-winning comic artist Sean Phillips.

Every Man For Himself As The Women Strike Back In First Teaser For Victor Vu's BATTLE OF THE BRIDES 2

Posted: 27 Aug 2013 10:30 AM PDT

A new trailer for the sequel to Vietnamese rom-com hit Battle of the Brides arrived today, featuring a ton of surprises. The scope of the sequel expands this time out moving from a clash between four girls and their unknowingly shared Don Juan boyfriend to a full on battle between male and female.Starting with a chaotic street fight, Battle of the Brides 2 shows men crying, women chasing them, explosions and even military helicopters in the sky. Kinda strange for a rom-com! At the end, you can see the four leaders of the Black Widows (an anti-male female vigilante group) standing in front of a crowd full of other girls, and you can hear the leader speak the group's motto: "Killing the wrong man is still better...

Dark Bridges 2013: MANIAC, EEGA and SIGHTSEERS Part Of Final Wave Of Films!

Posted: 27 Aug 2013 10:00 AM PDT

The Dark Bridges Film Festival out of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (in Canada) has announced the second half of this year's feature film program. The mandate of the festival is to bring favorites from the festival circuit to the small Prairie city and as a programmer for the festival I think we've done a fine job this year. These films will join the previously announced Resolution, Bushido Man, Big Bad Wolves, The Battery, Doomsdays, Wither, Drug War and a 35mm presentation of the original Night of the Living Dead. First off, you have your revenge seeking fly story Eega. Then add a dash of a kidnapping gone wrong with Panoy thriller Graceland. Watch evil Elijah Wood get it on with the ladies in Maniac. Kim Ki-duk's Pieta is...

Frightfest 2013 Review: ODD THOMAS Panders To The Geek Crowd

Posted: 27 Aug 2013 09:00 AM PDT

Odd Thomas is a film that thinks it's aimed at geeks, a target market who would enjoy a film that wants to be The Frighteners via way of Edgar Wright. Heck, I would enjoy that film. Sadly, Odd Thomas is not that film. Instead, it is a constant barrage of bad colour, sound and editing so fast that if the story weren't so predictable, you could miss something. Well, I probably did, but that was because the story kept changing direction, I'm guessing in an attempt to seem clever. But it just came off as a sad Hollywood attempt to tap into a particular geek demographic, but not actually thinking about what that demographic watches, and instead trying to force them to like what Hollywood...

Frightfest 2013 Review: THE LAST DAYS Presents A Beautiful But Flawed Take On The Apocalypse

Posted: 27 Aug 2013 08:30 AM PDT

Disaster / apocalypse films can be tricky. How much time do you spend on explaining the disaster? Do you investigate and examine the causes and symptoms? Do you give a cursory look at how the world got in trouble and concentrate on action that has little to do with it? Alex Pastor and David Pastor's The Last Days attempts to do a little bit of both, though its success is mixed. The production value is excellent, it keeps a steady pace, and there are both good quiet moments and excellent action scenes. But unfortunately it also falls too often into Hollywood sentimentalism, and with the exception of the unique cause of the disaster, doesn't explore deeper meanings or tread any new territory.Set in contemporary Barcelona,...

Posted: 27 Aug 2013 07:45 AM PDT

Ariel Kleiman's much-anticipated debut feature Partisan just got all shook up, with the news that Vincent Cassel has replaced Oscar Isaac in the lead role. A bunch of synopses have floated around about the film, and the news from Screen Daily gives us yet another, more detailed, version of the story. Cassel will play a charismatic and troubled man called Gregori, who has raised a communal family within the world of his lavish compound.  The story is told through the eyes of 11-year-old Alexander who starts to question Gregori's deadly teachings.Kleiman's short film Deeper Than Yesterday - made as his graduate film at the Victorian College of the Arts - was one of the most impressive student shorts of the past five years. Partisan will shoot in Australia...

Statham Almost Drowns On Set Of EXPENDABLES 3, Shrugs Off Death And Returns To Work Instead.

Posted: 27 Aug 2013 07:30 AM PDT

What's a bit of water in the lungs? Nothing at all if you're former British national dive team member Jason Statham, apparently. Reports have surfaced in Europe that Statham was taken to hospital yesterday, the action star pulled unconscious from a pond after a stunt gone wrong.What happened? Well, there was a fall into the water, apparently, and a stunt man was all set up to go when Statham insisted on doing the stunt himself. Former diver, puddle of water, what could go wrong? Well, something did, evidently, as he never came up and had to be fished out of the water by support crew. But mere water is no match for Statham who, after being checked over in hospital, returned to work later in...
