Madrid is under attack! from Pablo Olmos Arrayales on Vimeo.

With he recent release of Skyline, Monsters plus next March's World Invasion:Battle Los Angeles on the cards it seems that Alien Invasion movies are the 'in-genre' at the moment. You could search the world including our own backyard and you'll find similar movies poping up everywhere and ALONE(Solos) is Spain's addition to the genre.
Directed by Mexican Pablo Olmos Arrayales who now lives in Spain and Alone will be his feature debut after a sucessfull award winning few years directing Short films. Well a little confession this trailer is actually for a movie not been made yet but it does look fantastic and looking at the source post they does say the filmmaker is working on the script for itand expect the movie in the next year or two. If this is to help prmote his idea to potential studios I dont think he has much to worry about!

Teaser Trailer For HIGH KICK GIRL (Hai kikku gâru!)

No comments:
sourceNipponCinema
I got a little confused on exactly when this was made and speaking to a few friends who follow Japanese Movies/Culture passionitely they told this wasn't out yet and there right. HIGH KICK GIRL (Hai kikku gâru!) stars Rina Takeda  and as far as if this is a reboot or sequel, its hard to telll as there little info on the movie apart from “A girl’s revenge, born in Yokohama”, and the story revolves around a black belt which once belonged to a legendary karate master named Soujirou Kurenai and has since been passed down through generations of his family. 200 years later, a battle over the belt begins in Yokohama.
One thing we can see, she maybe a schoolgirl but you dont mess around with her or she'll kick your ass!!! Honestly theres not much I can say on this movie apart from its release in Japan will be February 25th 2011 and you can check out out a teaser trailer from the movies new distributor after the break....

A new final trailer for Jose Padilha's ELITE SQUAD 2 (Tropa de Elite 2 ) went online the weekend the movie was released cinematically in Brazil.
The movie has had its fair share of critics who've tried to prevent the movie been released but those critics arent film ones but the police whom this film is about and the corruption within the force. To really piss off the police thousands of bootleg copies where made and sold on the streets and thats what i call a vote of confidence from the people!
Whatever the police where goint to do in attempt to stop the movie it wasnt going to suceed as people power won at the end of the day and Padilha has the critics backing with Berlin film fest awarding the movie an accolade!The actual movie does look good with a mixed bag of action as well as drama, trailer after the break...

Gao Qunshu's WINDBLAST is looking like a bit of a revelation as in mainland China as its seems to be the country's first action crime thriller. You might say 'Really' yes it is and if you look at it Hong Kong though now part of China has been making these type of movies for a long time whilst China has been creating more traditional, historical epics which are fantastic too.
The movies plot sees 4 detectives with an unique skill all chasing a criminal who has escaped to the desert but there not the only fours tracking the criminal he also has to contend with 2 bounty hunters as well!
The movie stars Duan Yihong, Xia Yu, Wu Jing, Yu Nan and Charlie Young with the movie hitting the Chinese cinema's from October 28th and if things go well we can expect to see this on DVD around early 2011, trailer after the break...

sourceTWITCH
Dante Lam's STOOL PIGEON is only days away from been released in Hong Kong so the last minute marketing brings a second and final trailer before its August 26th release. If you love Hong Kong action/thrillers like the way they used to do it when Woo ruled the waves well Dante Lam is your man! This is vintage Hong Kong Thriller at its best!, enjoy trailer after the break....

Senior Inspector Don Lee relies heavily on the information provided by stool pigeons in his job.

Barbarian is a painstakingly meticulous armed robber. Don needs an informant to infiltrate his gang. He recruits street-racer Guy. Guy provides information on Barbarian's next job, but Don is unable to effectively act on them until the final moment. Since Barbarian has not left any evidence, Don is pressured to convince Guy to become a witness for the prosecution.

Don promises to provide Guy with a new identity in another country, but the departure is beset by accidents and Guy only barely makes it to safety.

Haunted by his ruined relationships with his ex-wife and former stool pigeons, Don no longer wants to be part of a world that is one betrayal after another.
