Teaser Trailer For Indie Horror AMERICAN MARY

Source TWITCH
If youve seen Dead Hooker In A Trunk you'll know these girls, Jen and Sylvia Soska Canadian indetical twins who showed alot of acting potential in the Canadain low budget fick. Now te pair are back with another dose of indie horrr with AMERICAN MARY.
For any girls obbessed with beauty and believe that to get more beautiful you have to go under the knife to get plastic surgery maybe they should check out this movie. This movie has an big Frankstien feel to it and it makes you wonder if the movies title is a homage to a certain Mary Shelly who brought us Franky boy all those years ago?

Trailer aftr the break...

American Mary is the story of a medical student named Mary who is growing increasingly broke and disenchanted with medical school and the established doctors she once idolized. The allure of easy money sends a desperate Mary through the messy world of underground surgeries, which leaves more marks on her than the so-called freakish clientele.



Written and directed by Jen and Sylvia Soska and produced by CJ Wallis (who also handles the camera, lighting, and editing duties), American Mary stars Paula Lindberg as "Ruby RealGirl."

Ive seen The EVIDENCE, its right here in this new trailer!!!

We love our found footage movies here at Cinehouse (and the peoplesmovies) blogs especially if its of supernatural or even horror related. Well Howie Askins has another movie to add to the extensive list of movies this time its a bunch of people who head into the hills camping for the first time and one of them is documenting the whole thing. But as they start to enjoy the camping they spot that something unearthly is acting hunting them down!
EVIDENCE is a movie that combines the style of Cloverfield, mixes in a good dose of even Troll Hunter which looks like this isa creature mocdoc and Askins does it well without making it too obivious his inspirations for the feature but what actually was hunting them? Find out in 2011!

Watch The First Trailer For The Epic 3D Polish War Movie - BATTLE OF WARSAW 1920

sourceTwitch
For years we've seen the Chinese grace our screens with epic battle movies bu no one has ever came that close to matching the history or in this case an actual movie. But throw in an experienced director Jerzy Hoffman with a oscar winning cinematographer Slawomir Idziak (BlackHawk Down) along with the help of 3,500 extras what do you get? BATTLE OF WARSAW 1920 (3D)!!!
Yes that sad word in brackets has finally slipped into Cinehouse UK the dredded 3d thats plagued my other site The Peoples Movies and what we see from the trailer there will be plenty of explosions, action to give the 3d camera  a chance to prove everyone wrong that 3d movies are good. The movie has received a very healthy budget and what we see from the trailer it has used it well but what I want to know is why do movies seem to make political leaders such as Lenin & Stallin look like characters from a TinTin movie? maybe we should ask Steven Speilberg that one!!!
BATTLE OF WARSAW 1920 3D is scheduled for release in Poland in September 2011.

Its Daddy Cool Teaser trailer For French Canadian movie FUNKYTOWN

source Twitch
I dont mind dance themed movies that have some sort of story behind other than dance, films like step up which are pure dance movies and tough they performers are very talented they dont just interest me especially when your bombarded on tv with programmes like Britian's got talent your bombarded every minute of theday. So FUNKYTOWN is a movie set in 1976 Montreal when punk and disco where the music to listen to but disco was the more popular mainstream choice when studio 54 inspired clubs ruled the roost along with sexual freedom. The movie is based around the  Limelife Discotheque where if your into disco and you wanted to mingle with the celebs this was the place to go.
The movie is very dark, sexy and for adults as well those who love Saturday Night Fever as this seems to mold into a similar style movie and they do it well. The movie is in French and directed by  Daniel Roby and stars

Patrick Huard, Paul Doucet, Raymond Bouchard, Sarah Mutch, Justin Chatwin, Geneviève Brouillette and François Létourneau.


Funkytown is set for a 2011 release, check the first teaser trailer after the break,...

English Subbed Trailer For Korean HAUNTED HOUSE PROJECT

Source24FPS
Back in the summer I brought you the trailer for THE DESERTED HOUSE, a Korean hand held cam horror but now a english subtitled version has hit the net with its new name THE HAUNTED HOUSE PROJECT. The movie does actually look scary, a bit of a slowburner at first and it seems to go crazy and we see elements ofParanormal Activity, Blair Witch Project and even a little Last Exorcism, enough to give you a few brown trouser moments!Today in Singapore the movie was released which means we're able to catch a english subitles


Synopsis: Over the course of forty two years, six went missing, eight had unexplained accidents and eleven were murdered. Three haunted house club members and three camera crew decide to look into this infamously haunted house, known to be possessed by real ghosts. Ignoring all signs from the other world, they enter this haunted house and disappear without a trace. Video footage of what they saw during their visit was later recovered, which may reveal why and how they met their end.

Final Trailer For Adam Mason's LUSTER

source TWITCH
Know Your Enemy as the poster says, but who is the enemy? Andrew Howerd stars as Anderew Luster a trouble businessman who is trying to make sense in whats going on and only to find who he is arguing with is nastier manipulative alter ego. murder, madness and mayhem will take Luster in one hell of a roller coster ride of his life.
I really love the way the trailer shows the two sides of Luster the good and the bad sides it reminded me of the Andy Serkis Gollum/smeagol part in Lord of The Rings movies, smartly done to make the viewer think there is actual two people. Apparently this movie has taken a long time to be made but now its in the final stages of post production before its release date and to tell how long its been in post production director Adam Mason has made  the horror movie PIG .
LUSTER also stars Xander Berkley (24, Nikita, Kick Ass), Holly Valance (Neighbours, Taken, Shark, Prison Break) and Billy Burke (Twilight, Drive Angry 3D), trailer after the break.....

Soda Pictures have sent me the new trailer for MAMMOTH starring Michelle Williams and Gael Garcia  Bernal which is getting a limited release in UK & Ireland next Friday 5th November.

Leo heads to Thailand for business and what happens there sparks of a string of events that lead to consquences to all of them.
Mammoth is directed by acclaimed  Swedish director Lucas Moodysson ( A Hole In My Heart, Container). Apoligies to Soda Pictures for taking so long to post this. You can catch Mammoth at Odeon Convent Garden London and Screen Dublin

Trailer & Video Inteview For RESTREPO

source Screenrush
This weekend in UK, Dogwoof released the tense wartorn documentary RESTREPO.
The movie has been described as The  Real Hurt Locker with more tension & emotion, going into a war seeing  things from a different angle , trying to get a little more respect for the soldiers as the the movie also shows the postwar effect on soldier as well. But what the movie does do you come out with no respect for the politicans who sent the soldiers into this unjust war, hiding behind an excuse for making the war just when we know that its a curtain for the real reason.
Our good friends at Screenrush caught up with the movies director Tim Hetherington asking him about the pressures in creating a documentary in a warzone, Ive also included the trailer for the movie as well, as I dodnt post it previously.
Check out the video interview and Trailer after the break...
