TRUST ME ...Alexander Skarsgard want you to, trailer

source QuietEarth
Here's one for the True Blood Fans, here is Eric Northman or better known as Alexander Skarsgard and maybe you haven't seen his native Swedish side, a side of him you may haven't thought of. The clue is in the picture above, he's in a kimono either he plays someone with a slight feminite side but more likely to be sexually (over)active!
TRUST ME (aka Puss) is a movie directed by Johan Kling which can be described as a comical intake of sex, drugs, alcoholism, misdemeanors, acne, voyuerism, cleptomania and pregancy, mmm sounds like life, full stop!
Like the source I haven't a clue what there on about but the kimono is a clue to some comedy. Alexander does have family in this movie in the form of his other brother Gustaf and I think we can say down to been in one of America's most popular tv dramas im sure we'll see the movie in subtitle sometime!

source Twitchfilm
Its days like this I'm greatfull where I live (Scotland) for the sake that earthquakes have a 1% chance of ever happening in my country. Lets go to China the biggest populated country in the world, it's 1976 Tangshan City in Hebei province on July 28, the world's worst earthqauke destroy's the area with a 7.8 on richter scale killing nearly 250,000 people and injuring just as many, its a tragic event. 

Feng Xiaogang's movie AFTERSHOCK is centered around this event following the tragic events through the eyes of a little girl. This is not a disaster movie as in the sense of fictional Towering Inferno, this is based on a true event which no one ever wants to see but tragically does occour, this is a weepie folks an emotional rollercoaster ride.
The movie is due out on July 22nd in china and will be the country's first produced IMAX movie and the poster on the left is for the American release  as in when it is I dont have or even if there's a UK release too, hopefully there will be.
Check the synopsis and trailer, Featruette after the break...

Source Twitchfilm
Unless you followed Anime or you can a remember a classic 'cartoon'  from your childhood called Starblazers (it's American name) you may not know about this but SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO is one of the classic 'Space Soap Opreas' and now 33years on the live action version is nearly with us and below is its first full trailer.

Takashi Yamazaki  will be a rich rich man as Yamato is so sacred to the Japanese like Coronation Street here in the UK, but like any national treasure you have to treat it with respect and make sure you dont spoil it.

The creators behind this movie are going big style on the special effects and what we see from the footage I'm mighty impressed! This will be a blockbuster movie in Japan and there lead been fromJapanese pop phenomenon SMAP, Takuya Kimura. 

For those not familar with Yamato you can look at it like a old school Battlestar Glactica but more darker as well as grimer.Check out the trailer after the break and this movie is heading for a December 1st release in Japan and due to the cult status the animation has in the West I do think we'll see a big following here as well.

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.

Its low budget here and will be one of the movies which will travel more on festival circuit (which its doing right now) but it is getting a release in its native Canada in August.

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!
