Vincent Gallo Joins The Taliban in ESSENTIAL KILLING

source Vulture

Vincent Gallo seems to have a trail of controversay folling him, he does pick the movies which will get the highbrow gossip mongering, follow your heart I say. Well this one will have the middle class rightwing America choking on their frappechinos with Jerzy Skolimowski's ESSENTIAL KILLING.

This one think Rambo First Blood minus the macho testoserone and the mai character been a Talaban member!

The Essence of Killing follows the story of a Taliban member (Gallo) who lives in Afghanistan, kills three American soldiers and then is taken captive by the Americans. He is transferred to Europe for interrogation but manages to escape from his captors and becomes an escaped convict on a continent he does not know.

Trailer For Danish Movie HAEVEN (IN A BETTER WORLD)

source Twitch
Popular Danish Arthouse director Susanne Bier  known for been the director of  Brodre (Brothers, recently remade in hollywood with Tobey Maguire, Jake Gyllenhaal), After The Wedding and Things We Lost in The Fire is returning to our screens with her latest movie HAEVEN.
Also known as In A Better World & Civilization is causing much confusion as in what the synopsis of the film as there's lack of English translation. The IMDB explanation doesn't really concide with the trailer, but I found this at Danish Film Insitute:

"In a Better World" traces elements from a refugee camp in Africa to the grey humdrum of everyday life in a Danish provincial town. The lives of two Danish families cross each other, and an extraordinary but risky friendship comes into bud. But loneliness, frailty and sorrow lie in wait, and soon friendship transforms into a dangerous alliance and a breathtaking pursuit in which life is at stake. 

The movie is due out in Denmark on August 27th with Sony Classics picking up the rights for USA, as for UK/Ireland or a release date, I dont have that now. check out the trailer after the break...

English Subtitled Trailer for Go Shibata's DOMAN SEMAN

source NipponCinema
This trailer is bordering on full on weirdness but we love that sort of movies here at Cinehouse HQ! DOMAN SEMAN is the lastest movie from Gô Shibata (Late Bloomer), well it actually I think its already been out in its native Japan but it'll premiere at next month's Asian Film Festival in New York on July 5th.

Doman Seman revolves around a lazy no-gooder Shinsuke and his homeless mushroon eating friend Tsutomu who are enlisted by a magical spirit who presents himself as Mr.Abe the Yakuza magican to do battle against the evil & greed of modern society. Mr.Abe with his new 2 recruits along with an army of pyshic children must track down a man who tracks dark energy down to a murder this man commited when he was a teenager.

Very bizzare, symbolistic even a little occult here Shibata say's he was inspired by the works of David Lynch (yes obscure) and Spanish  Alejandro Jodorowsky  to create his magical world of realism,mmm!

Trailer For ECILA, Alice aint in wonderland just grindhouse Noir!

source QuietEarth
After easter pathetic Tim Burton Alice In blunderland movie I went off Alice as well as Tim Burton movies, theres always a new adaptation of the movie happening somewhere nothing original about it. However if you where approached with a version which goes in a direction you would never think of what would you do? Check it out!!!
Ecila is that adaptation which takes the main elements of Alice pushes the story into modern times, throws in some grindhouse fantasy film noir and we get one fine piece of indie film making!

Ecila will be premiered at Haiwaiian Film Festival in October, you can check Ecila's theatrical trailer below.....

Trailer For Chinese Anime KSITIGARBHA

source Twitch
China isn't renowned for been a centre of producing animation,thats animation in the same frame and to the same qaulity as there neighbours Japan . Every so often there always comes a project which could match that qaulity of the Japanese anime masters and below theres a trailer for a movie that could be one of those projects, its called KSITIGARBHA.
The movie has been directed by Wu Hanqing and will be released by Beijing based animation house Vasoon. Visually it does look it does look really great, wait until half way when the action kicks in, the only doubt I have in this movie is the actual story is it good enough as you know a good story is usually a good movie (well 75% of the time!). There's a biggest religious feel to the movie especially Bhuddism  definately one of caution, I would love to get my hands on this movie and many other movies but Im only a blogger!

10-10-10 The World will become a dark place, Trailer for DARK WORLD 3D

source Twitch
3D Seems to be everywhere personally I dont see the fantastic experience's we keep hearing about, maybe I've just chosen the worst movies to sample the '3-d' experience or I just the film studio's ploy to rip us all off more especially when the standard ticket is very pricey, I'm not paying £10 plus £3 for the glasses, anyway thats off my chest! Below is the first full trailer for Russian 3D Fantasy DARKWORLD.

The movie will be the first 3D Russian movie with real actors in it which sees a group of students awake some ancient magical being whilst on a antropoligist exepidition. Confused dot com here folks there also something about a meteorite shield as well and I know I had a dig at 3d as im not yet conviced after 5 3d made movies but watching this trailer I think we can it does look better if it's in 3d instead of 2d (reality).
have a gander let me know what you think....

Trailer For Eugino Mira's Baroque thriller AGNOSIA

source BloodyDisgusting
I've been waiting agonisingly for some new trailers to post on my blog, and we get this little beauty! Below is a teaser trailer for Spanish movie AGNOSIA which some websites are calling the next 'The Orphanage' or 'Pan's Labyrinth' well they are very close as the movie comes from the producers of those 2 movies Eugino Mira.

European Horror/thrillers especially Spanish ones over the last few years have been some of the best so when another one appears its does call out for our attention especially when the crap we see from hollywood be lucky to get 1 star (though there is a few good horror/thrillers in the indie movie scene).

If you like your movies dark,twisted, mind bending (not in the inception style), good story, beautifully shot maybe you should check out Agnosia, impressive is a word that springs to mind here.

Offical Trailer For Amir Bar-Lev's 'THE TILMAN STORY'

source Yahoo
The Weinstein Company (via Yahoo) have released the feature trailer for Amir Bar-Lev's documentary THE TILMAN STORY.
The documentary follows the life of Pat Tilman a promising American footballer who had a multi-million contract ahead of him who decides to join the army who get stationed in Afghanistan and is tragically killed. The details of how this man died (and like many other soldiers) remains a mystery and sadly his  tragic death was manipulated into a propaganda incident.
I'm not American but I have slight inkling about the story but dont know the reasons how this man who just thought it was right to do the what he beleived in serve his country was tragically killed and his death disrespected. According to other movie sites whom have seen this movie (8.5 out of 10 rating at this years sundance), it's a emtional  rollercoaster that people have to see.
Sounds like another governmental cover-up, the documentary is going to get a cinematical release in USA on August 20th, as for UK or Ireland there is no word but depending on its sucess stateside we may see a limited release.
