No comments:

source QuietEarth
There's not much info on this but what we can see it looks good!!! Above is an 'concept' trailer for a sci-fi Invasion movie THE LAST DEFENDER which comes from the Fathouse Studios. What we can see is the invaders look like giant robots, very similar to the ones from Evagellion the classic meccha anime from Japan and it makes me wonder if thats where the inspiration comes from, hopefully not Transformers. I wonder if they will be pods for the invading aliens like in War of The Worlds. Ive been watching reruns of the classic V tv series on syfy but I keep missing the updated version as I always seem to go abroad when its on, so something similar to V would be great. The footage there isnt much just a taster and the news reporters in the trailer try to decipher what they are and if there a hoax or not, mmm

UK Trailer For Oscar Winning El secreto de sus ojos(The Secret In Their Eyes)

This year's Oscar ceremony the award for Best foreign movie raised a few eyebrows when relatively unknown outside its native Argentina when El secreto de sus ojos (The Secret In Their Eyes) won the award.
The movie was quickly snapped up up by Sony Picture Classics label and quickly started to do the rounds around the world why it deserved the award beating off the likes of Ajami, A Prophet, White Ribbon and The Milk of Sorrow. I remember the ceremony well with the presenter assuming White Ribbon or A Prophet was going to win and her shock when it went to the Argentian movie.
The movie is now finally going to be released cinematically on Friday in UK & Ireland and I've just had a read of the Empire magazine review and they gave it a 5/5 and I hope to check it out myself on Friday. Synopsis and trailer after the break...

Source affenheimtheater
Just last week I posted the poster and opening credits for Gasper Noe's ENTER THE VOID, well today IFC Films have posted the offical American trailer for the film which you can check out after the break.

This is Noe'slong awaited follow up movie since the  controversial Irreversible which premiered at the 2009 Cannes Film festival. I dont know why its taken so long for the movie to get an American distributor (still no sign of a UK release though) possibly a sign of how difficult a movie to promote or simply the directors reputation prevails.This marketing is however less risque than the Japanese one which did portray alot of the movies sexual nature though this version does play up on the drug side of things

The trailer does a fantastic job promoting the movie well I do love the strobe lighting, colour scheme of the movie which is a brilliant repersentation of the Tokyo Nightlife where the movie is based in. IFC Films are giving this flick a limited release stateside from September 24th.

It's not just the American's who remake movies left right and centre, The Asian market has its fair share of remakes some obscures other you expect but at no time would I see a Coen Brother's movie been remade but one has. That movie is Blood Simple and below is the American Trailer for A WOMAN, A GUN AND A NOODLESHOP.
The movie has been remade by House of The Flying Daggers/Hero director
Yimou Zhang and typically Chinese they concentrate more on the humour factor rather the drama  and guess what American fans can catch this movie as it goes on a limited release on September 3rd as for UK &Ireland there is no word, more likely direct to DVD.

If you are a lover of movies or a student of film studies if you were to study one movie to learn about film making especially how to creat a dystopian sci-fi , you should look no further than METROPOLIS.

The silent movie masterpiece was created by Fritz Lang in 1927 and a few years back, 25 minutes footage previously thought was lost was found and now the restoration of the complete movie is ready to be admired once again on our big screens. During September as well October special screeenings/educational screenings will take place all around UK & Ireland  and you can find the full list of screenings on the specially made website .
Just think if it wasnt for movies like this movies like Blade Runner and probably the whole science fiction movie genre wouldn't have been created, Metropolis is a true cinematic piece of history, trailer after the break....

A regular guest at his restaurant is a young man who is jobless. He always eats on credit. One day, his mom gets mad at him for not having a job and he bites her on the arm. After this, everyone in town starts to act very strangely. Young-cheol gets bitten and soon discovers the he, like much of the townsfolk have become Zombies. If finding out you're now a fully paid up member of the living dead isn't bad enough news, the loan shark he owes money too kidnaps his wife and daughter and threaten their lives if he doesn't pay up. For hurting his family, he prepares to fight against them. What kind of things will an undead, unkillable, man do...to save his wife and child?
