First Trailer for APPLESEED ALPHA Has Arrived

Posted: 13 May 2014 03:07 AM PDT

This summer, we'll get a new Appleseed feature in cinemas, and the good people of IGN.com have just posted an English-language trailer for it. This iteration is called Appleseed Alpha, and shows the adventures of female supersoldier Deunan and her friend Briareos, who after grievous battle injuries has been resurrected as a giant cyborg. Together they travel across an urban landscape ravaged by war, looking for pockets of civilization. The director is Aramaki Shinji, who also did the previous two Appleseed cgi-films and, more recently, the Space Pirate Captain Harlock 3D movie. Plot-wise, it sounds like this film stays a bit closer to Masamune Shirow's manga stories. Image-wise, well... faces look a lot more realistic when compared to the earlier films, but Deunan now wears a...

Distributor Magnet will be releasing a second ABCs of Death film later this year. Like the first film, this will be a horror anthology of 26 short films, all by different directors, and each focusing on a specific letter of the alphabet.

Posted: 12 May 2014 10:08 PM PDT

Pull your tuxedos out of storage, boys and girls, because it's that time of year again! Yup, those feverish ten days where the international arthouse's biggest names mingle on the French Riviera with harried paparazzi looking for the perfect shot, frenzied distributors trying to cut the perfect deal and yacht-owning oligarchs trying to throw the perfect party. It may be a madhouse, and it is certainly over the top, but it's all in the name of (capital C) Cinema. A warm reception here can change a film's -- and filmmaker's - trajectory forever. It's the Cannes Film Festival, friends, and it starts in on May 14th. Over the next few days, we'll be spotlighting some of the most interesting films in this year's selection. Today, we'll...

Fantaspoa 2014 Interview: Lloyd Kaufman Talks RETURN TO NUKE 'EM HIGH, Motörhead's Lemmy, And More

Posted: 12 May 2014 12:00 PM PDT

While the Troma retrospective is not over yet at Fantaspoa, Lloyd Kaufman leaved the city of Porto Alegre today in order to make of Cannes a Troma-occupied territory once more. During the night of the Brazilian premiere of Return to Nuke 'Em High Volume 1, I had the honor to interview the always kind and funny Kaufman. Twitch: I know you are leaving Brazil tomorrow, so tell me about the Fantaspoa experience and the video you are recording here. Lloyd Kaufman: I'm recording some lessons for students. We have the Make Your Own Damn Movie Channel so usually when I come to an event like this and I'm just filming randomly, there is some kind of lesson that comes out of it. I don't know...

Pretty Packaging: Take A Look At The French WORLD WAR Z Limited Edition

Posted: 12 May 2014 10:00 AM PDT

(Like a zombie I stumbled across something very palatable-looking!) Despite its massive cost-overruns and being sniggered at by the press upon its release, World War Z was actually profitable, doing decent business across the globe. Me, I like the film, even though it still seems unfinished, and the design materials only point out how much epic potential has been missed. But it has a couple of great moments, and the unrated version actually provides just enough gore to qualify for the genre. So I wanted to buy the Blu-ray for my collection. Now when I buy a film on Blu-ray these days, I always go for the 3D option when given half the chance. I mean, if it's THERE, why not? In the case of...
