The Album Leaf's Jimmy Lavalle Scoring Moorhead And Benson's SPRING

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 01:00 PM PDT

Resolution filmmakers Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson continue wending their way through post production on their latest effort, Spring, and they've just added a very intriguing collaborator with The Album Leaf's Jimmy Lavalle coming on board to score. Apparently he owns rather a lot of keyboards. The Evil Dead's Lou Taylor Pucci stars as a young American man who heads to the Italian coast after something of a personal crisis where he meets a young woman (Nadia Hilker) carrying a dark secret....

Crowdfund This! Quirky Canadian Comedy SONGS SHE WROTE ABOUT PEOPLE SHE KNOWS!

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 12:00 PM PDT

We were big fans of oddball Canadian indie comedy Doppelganger Paul around these parts and now writer and co-director Kris Elgstrand is in prep on his newest offering, the fabulously titled Songs She Wrote About People She Knows, and he's looking for a bit of help to shoot this thing on film rather than digital.Carol, an emotionally repressed woman, faces the ramifications of honest self-expression when she begins singing songs she wrote about people knows. As she alienates friends and co-workers, Carol unexpectedly inspires her boss, to whom she dedicates the song Asshole Dave, to quit his job, pick up a guitar and attempt to reignite his dream of becoming a rock star. As Dave flounders, Carol begins to hone her unique talents. Arabella Bushnell and...

Check Out The Stunning U.S. Trailer For IDA

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 11:00 AM PDT

One of the most highly anticipated Polish films of 2013, Pawel Pawlikowski's Ida has enjoyed a triumphant run on the international festival circuit, gaining massive critical acclaim almost everywhere where it's screened. The powerful and beautifully lensed picture has also won four major awards (Best Film, Best Director, Best Editing, Best Actress for Agata Kulesza) during the ceremony of The Polish Academy Awards, popularly known as "Orly". I had the great pleasure of seeing Ida at Warsaw Film Festival last October and I wrote about the experience in my review.The 1960s in Poland. Anna is a novitiate nun, an orphan brought up at a convent. Before taking her vows, she is told by her mother superior that there is a condition: Anna has to visit her aunt Wanda, her...

Pretty Packaging: Take A Look At The French SNOWPIERCER ULTIMATE EDITION Blu-ray

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 10:00 AM PDT

(Apparently the French were really, really happy they had the international premiere for this one...) International releases sometimes happen on weird, illogic timetables. This Thursday, April the 3rd, Bong Yoon-ho's new film Snowpiercer had its theatrical premiere in The Netherlands. On that very same day, the mailman arrived with a package out of France, containing the special edition Blu-ray of the very same film. Last year, France was the first country outside of South Korea to show Snowpiercer, with festival screenings back in September, followed with a wide release in October, and that is why their home releases leave the station a bit sooner, this very week in fact. The French distributor is Wild Side Video, and thankfully they have a reputation for pimping some...

GAKKO NO KAIDAN: NOROI NO KOTODAMA Trailer: The Return Of A 90's Horror Franchise

Posted: 06 Apr 2014 08:00 AM PDT

If you're familiar with Haunted School (Gakkō no Kaidan), the successful Japanese horror film series from the 90's, then you probably know what to expect from the upcoming Gakkō no Kaidan: Noroi no Kotodama. But what you may not know is that all the main female characters are played by young members of the popular J-pop/idol group Tokyo Girls' Style. Given that Ochiai Masayuki (also responsible for the next Ju-on film) will attempt to revitalize a slightly forgotten franchise, the future of the project basically lies in the hands of those inexperienced actresses.Although all four previous parts focused on elementary school children, Gakkō no Kaidan: Noroi no Kotodama takes spooky action into a more "mature" environment, namely a high school. The atmospheric first trailer doesn't really look as...
