Below is a teaser trailer for the highly antcipated RED WHITE & BLUE by English movie director Simon Rumley. He made a movie a few years ago which the memories came flooding back, well some 'I remember watching that!' it must have been one of those 3 in the morning can't get to sleep moments lets watch Film4, that movie was The Living and The Dead . I remember it due to actor Leo Bill who I remember from 28 Days later as the silly soldier cook prviate Jones. What Ive read of this new flick Red white & Blue it sounds violent, brutal and explicit.

The movie is playing SXSW Fest  next month in Austin Texas, USA and stars
Noah Taylor, Amanda Fuller and Marc Senter . Have a read of the synopsis (possibly spoilers in it) and then watch the trailer, but be warned dont watch at work or around minors or anyone who will be easily offended:


synopsis:In Austin Texas, the lives of three young people Erica, Franki and Nate intertwine in a fateful, tragic way and head down a rocky and violent road to heart-rending oblivion.


Erica (Amanda Fuller) lives rent-free in the local co-op, but spends her nights trawling the bars and beds of Austin. Damaged, emotionally withdrawn, never really connecting with anyone, and sleeping with multiple men is just what she does until she meets the older and mysterious Nate (Noah Taylor), working in a hardware store, but with an honorable discharge from Iraq.


Despite his quiet air of danger, Nate's the only guy who doesnt seem to want to get her into bed at the first opportunity, and the two form a hesitant bond. But one of Erica's casual sexual encounters is about to bite back.


Franki (Marc Senter) is a young, hot-headed wannabe rock star trying to make it big. Looking after a sick mother and estranged from his longterm girlfriend, Franki shared Erica with his buddies one drunken evening. A shocking twist of fate is all it takes to throw his already crazy world into a spin, and in Frankis eyes there is only one person to blame...IMDB

Is Penelope Cruz feeling Melanchonic for Lars Von Trier's 'Melancholia'

Has Lars Von Trier found his leading lady for Melancholia? According to various sources from the Playlist article Spanish actress Penelope Cruz is the one.

The reports say Von Trier and his assistant Anders Refn have told Danish television they have always had Cruz on their mind and she'll lead the line in the movie which will explore the pyschological view of an disaster.

It is said the movies budget will only be around $5million mark with shooting for the movie to happen in Sweden, as in when it'll happen no one knows but it'll be sometime this year as they plan to show the movie at the Cannes 2011 festival.

The name of this movie Melancholia comes from the name of the planet which will threaten earth's existance as its looms closer to our blue little planet. 'This is going to be a pyschological drama with sci-fi elements to it'states Von Trier ' with no happy endings' he also says. This is getting me very excited as I do love science fiction and movies with a element of sci-fi and too many movies always end with a happy ending so it's going to be good to see a bad ending! if like Antichrist do expect something even more bizzare and twisted for the ending and bring the shock and excitement he brought at last years festival well we are all in for a treat.

If Penelope Cruz is going to take the part I do hope she knows what she's getting into just ask Nicole Kidman, Emily Watson, Bjork or Bryce Dallas Howard what they think none have ever returned to work for Lars Von Treir again all. Peoplem like to say we torture ourselves in certain ways to achieve certain things as in Lars Von Treir he definintely "tortures"  people but only improvised in front of the camera.

With in time they seem to move away from the rest of the crowd virtually into there own alleyway and the conservation wanders into the trival matters of the bizzare group of people around them.

Theatrical Trailer for Belgium's AMER

When I was invited to the press Launch of This years (month's) Glasgow Film Festival I was so eager to see the programme for The Frightfest @ Glasgow (UK's biggest horror/fantasy festival) apart from [Rec]2, Splice and Frozen it was that Helene Cattet & Bruno Forzani's homage to all things Giallo AMER was going to get its U.K premiere as well!!!
Both directors will be attending  to present the movie and I'm still waiting on my press passess which im hoping that I get a pass to see this. Over the years Ive came to love everything Italian inspired from my best schoolfriend, to a ex-girlfriend, to the food and actually working in Sorrrento Italy as well. Through these times ive met great people as well as many movie fans more die hard than me who introduced me to alot of classic horror/thrillers I wouldnt have looked at before including Giallo. From there my passion has grown.

Amer just looks so brillant! stylish, classic but modern enough to keep any modern thriller/horror fan happy, anyway less of me read the synopsis and enjoy the trailer!

synopsis:Three key moments, all of them sensual, define Ana's life. Her carnal search sways between reality and colored fantasies becoming more and more oppressive. A black laced hand prevents her from screaming. The wind lifts her dress and caresses her thighs. A razor blade brushes her skin, where will this chaotic and carnivorous journey leave her? - IMDB

Dutch Animated Short PIVOT now online

No comments:











source TwitchFilm
Pivot is perfect proof that animation doesnt have to be the glizty  effexts with very detailed graphics to be visually pleasing as well as entertaining. This little short from Holland  uses minimal to great effect in details, colours, very basic but effective low-polygon style. Created by Kevin Megens, Floris Vos, Arno de Grijs and André Bergs with music sound from Alex Debicki.

The story is simple one about a man who was taking pictures and witnessed a murder happen. He also is able to get one of the killer and has to run for his life, but things turn for worse when the hunted becomes the hunter with a very dark sad ending.

First Glimpse at Studio Ghibli’s Karigurashi No Arrietty (The Borrowers)

No comments:








source ThePeopleMovies
Here's the new fantastic teaser trailer for Studio Ghibli’s next released project Karigurashi No Arrietty (The Borrowers).
If you know Japanese cinema you know when animation (or anime) is released its a major thing and even more when its Studio Ghibli well its even bigger!!!The animation has been directed by Studio Ghibli’s youngest ever director (36 years old) Hiromasa Yonebayashi who has worked on the work by the great master Hayao Miyazaki’s classics Princess Mononoke, Howl’s Moving Castle and Spirited Away. This is his directoral debut and if this is like the studio’s other work it will do well. The animation is based on the Mary Norton Book The Borrowers with the great man himself writing the screenplay.
Miyazaki and Isao Takahata his long time friend and partner have looked at creating the book for over 40 years and it must have been a great honour for Yonebayashi when they passed the project to him.The movie is due a Summer release in its native Japan, July 17th but for UK and Ireland we will probably have to wait at least 1 year or more if we do get a cinematic release date, USA possibly less.
synopsis: 14-year-old Arrietty and the rest of the Clock family live in peaceful anonymity as they make their own home from items “borrowed” from the house’s human inhabitants. However, life changes for the Clocks when a human boy discovers Arrietty. - imdb


Arthouse Horror in THE DEFILED

source QuietEarth
What I love about this trailer is the retro/classic feel it has to it. Fans of cult horror movies will like the look of this movie THE DEFILED. This arthouse movie is written and directed by Julian Grant and when you look at it its like its stuck in a visual time warp between Noseferatu and Night of the Living dead, which you see in the above photo.Verbally there is only one line in the whole of the movie which is not alot as its a 100minute feature but visually and storywise its an very intriguing peice of work, the trailer is only 30 seconds long but you do get a sense of the movie is all about.

synopsis:
Set in a near distant future where an N1HI style of virus has decimated the populace, an infected man, his new-born child and an enigmatic beauty must seek food and shelter in this world-turned-wrong. - imdb

We love our short films here at Cinehouse and here's one called LEAP. This indie sci-fi short was created by Dan Gaud and this is an great little short which packs alot of punch and shows enough evidence to be good alot longer than 7 minutes.
The story is about a young who discovers he can pass into a parallel dimensions by falling from great heights. Apart from the early hiccups this little movie is an diverse solid creation, tell us what you think, enjoy...

When you see the name of the director of this movie MacGregor you wouldn't think he's Polish? He is and his full name is Miguel de Olaso and above is the latest teaser trailer for his upcoming movie KORE.
Slashfilmc ouldn't get alot of information on the movie same with their source TwitchFilm but what we do know is that Twitch compare this movie a cross between the futuristic landscape of Blade Runner meets the grime reality of Blomkamps District 9 and with that description thats enough to win me over possibly you?

According to sources this teaser is part of a trilogy but a different part of the world connected with his other near completed short Similo which there's  information either. Looking at MacGregor's Vimeo site it says under the trailer "coming some day", lets hope its soon!!!
