| Canadian Horror Flick ANTISOCIAL Heads For Release On April 22 Posted: 19 Mar 2014 05:00 AM PDT  Anchor Bay Canada has been awarded the home video and digital distribution rights to Canuck horror flick Antisocial. Breakthrough Entertainment has worldwide distribution rights and it was produced by our friends over at Raven Banner Entertainment. It will be released on April 22. In this new feature debut from director Cody Calahan, a New Year's Eve celebration descends into chaos and fear as a mysterious viral outbreak pushes a group of friends to their limits in this fresh take on a technology driven apocalyptic story. The DVD release will include audio commentary with director/writer Cody Calahan and cinematographer Jeff Maher, a behind-the-scenes featurette, and a photo gallery. We've got your first look at the DVD sleeve below so you know what to keep an eye out for on April... [Read the whole post on twitchfilm.com...] |
| GODZILLA: New International Trailer Lays Waste To The Landscapes Posted: 19 Mar 2014 03:00 AM PDT  Since none of us seem to have had our fill of Godzilla trailers, how about the new international trailer from the UK? It features the clearest shot of what has to be Rodan to date. We also get more scenes of devastation wherever 'Zilla and the other Kaiju trot. And Bryan Cranston is still determined to expose the truth. The massive, spiky truth!... [Read the whole post on twitchfilm.com...] |
| A Dozen New Post-Apocalyptic Images From Fruit Chan's THE MIDNIGHT AFTER Posted: 19 Mar 2014 02:30 AM PDT  After its world premiere in Berlin last month, Hong Kong is poised to experience Fruit Chan's post-apocalyptic thriller The Midnight After when it screens as one of the official opening films of the 38th Hong Kong International Film Festival on Monday ahead of its 10 April theatrical release.Starring a host of Hong Kong's finest performers, including Simon Yam, Lam Suet, Kara Hui, Wong You Nam and Janice Man, it tells the story of a bus load of strangers who emerge from a tunnel to discover the city is totally deserted. Regrouping in an abandoned restaurant, these 16 strangers might be humanity's only hope for survival.To whet our appetites ahead of the release, Golden Scene has released a dozen character images, giving us a glimpse of...

| Hot Docs 2014 Lineup Announced: From Pulp to Alice Cooper To Weddings to Zombies And Much More Posted: 18 Mar 2014 09:30 PM PDT  Toronto's Hot Docs Festival is Canada's largest festival dedicated solely to documentaries. It is perhaps the world's largest too, for that matter. The festival organizers have announced the full film line-up for the upcoming 21st edition, which runs from April 24 to May 4. Hot Docs will be showing 197 shorts and features from 43 different countries in 12 programs, and a few of us locals have combed through the massive selection therein to offer a preview of sorts.This year's festival is a little light on big-league documentary filmmaker names. There is no Errol Morris, no James Marsh, no Jennifer Baichwal, Heidi Ewing or Rachel Grady (although there is stalwart, Joe Berlinger in the line-up.) However, as per usual, the festival is long on interesting subjects... [Read the whole post on twitchfilm.com...] |
| Indian Film Fest LA: SIDDHARTH, SOLD, UGLY, And QISSA Topline Posted: 18 Mar 2014 04:30 PM PDT  In a mere three weeks time, the 12th annual Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles (IFFLA) opens its doors to show off some of the fantastic things going on in the independent film scene of the world's largest democracy and film industry. We previously announced the Opening Night screening of Sold, however, these new additions are well worth your time. I've seen a number of them and can definitely recommend them.Among the films for which I can personally vouch, one stands out as a major coup for IFFLA, and that is the North American premiere of Anurag Kashyap's Ugly. This is a film I tried to bring the the USA last year but I'm glad it's finally getting a showing here; it's a devastating piece... [Read the whole post on twitchfilm.com...] |
| Posted: 18 Mar 2014 03:30 PM PDT  Patton Oswalt once said, in a rant lashing out against generic non-descript movie titles like Something's Gotta Give or Feelin' Kinda Sorta, that the all time greatest movie title is three words long: Texas Chainsaw Massacre. [Actual original title: The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.] A name that tells you everything you need to know. Texas - oh that's not good. Chainsaw - oh shit! MASSACRE!!! "I could watch that movie in my head right now." But, jokes aside, Tobe Hooper's 1974 DIY horror masterpiece is like no film made before it or since. It's been 40 years since Hooper shocked the world with TCM, a horror film so gritty and vile the trajectory of the genre would be irreconcilably altered. One could even argue that the...

| Posted: 18 Mar 2014 03:00 PM PDT  Well, now. Here are a couple of our favorite people ending up in the same place at the same time. Trollhunter director Andre Ovredal has penned the script to Enormous, a new web series based on the comic by Tim Daniel and Mehdi Cheggour, with directing duties falling to BenDavid Grabinski who won much love here with his horror-action-comedy short film The Cost Of Living a few years back.Ceren Lee stars as Ellen, a mother who scavenges a post-apocalyptic world in search of missing children before something ... bigger finds them. The cast also includes Steve Braun (Wrong Turn 2), Erica Gimpel (Veronica Mars), Joe Swanberg (Drinking Buddies), Todd Farmer (My Bloody Valentine) and Simon Barrett (You're Next).The first full episode of Enormous will arrive...

| Albert Pyun Returns With THE INTERROGATION OF CHERYL COOPER. See It Early And Help Shape The Film! Posted: 18 Mar 2014 02:30 PM PDT  Cult film fans were dismayed to learn back in August that Cyborg director Albert Pyun was stepping away from his film career due to health issues. But proving that you can't keep a good man down - or, at least, that it takes more than MS to do it - Pyun is headed back to the director's chair just seven months after that announcement to helm single take thriller The Interrogation of Cheryl Cooper.Cheryl Cooper (Tommie Vegas) wakes up in what she believes is a interrogation room in a police station where she is interrogated by Detective Ben (Shane Ryan) and young female rookie police officer named Officer Bardo (Brittany Bochart) about being found at an unfinished Las Vegas hotel where there was a mass...

| THE RAID 2 Clip: Hammer Girl On A Suddenly Bloody Subway Posted: 18 Mar 2014 12:41 PM PDT  What you need to know about this clip from The Raid 2 before watching it is that it is bloody, NSFW, and features Hammer Girl demonstrating how she earned that nickname. The film opens in the U.S. on March 28.... [Read the whole post on twitchfilm.com...] |
| Posted: 18 Mar 2014 09:00 AM PDT  Interviewing Larry Fassenden was a real treat. When Hollywood is plaguing the horror genre with remakes, 15 unwanted sequels and anything to make a quick 60 million bucks, this guy has been in front of and behind the camera in numerous independent projects, helping to keep the original idea alive. He's also made some time to act alongside Bill Murray and get a credit in a Martin Scorsese movie. I caught up with Fassenden to talk about his latest directing outing, Beneath, about a bunch of punk ass teens up shit creek without paddles. But that's the least of their problems -- there's a giant fish with razor sharp teeth and an appetite for 12 swimming around them just aching for one (or all) of them...

| Watch The Very Promising First Teaser For Brunei Fight Drama YASMINE Posted: 18 Mar 2014 08:00 AM PDT  We have been intrigued by director Siti Kamaluddin's action drama Yasmine since first coming across word of it back in October. It's just the second commercially produced film in the entire history of Brunei, for one thing, and it provides another look at the SE Asian fight style of silat - the same discipline used in The Raid - for another. And that Kamaluddin recruited frequent Jackie Chan collaborator Chan Man-Ching as fight choreographer ... well, you can see why we're interested, yes?And now the first teaser has arrived to stoke interests even further. It's a brief but effective bit of work, one that doesn't give much in the way of story - the story, incidentally, revolves around a young woman struggling against family and...
