Ulrich Tukur Interview: Michael Haneke's A White Ribbon

Friday saw the release of Michael Haneke's movie A White Ribbon (Das weisse Band - Eine deutsche Kindergeschichte). This is a movie about strange events happen in a small village in the north of Germany during the years just before World War I, which seem to be ritual punishment. The abused and suppressed children of the villagers seem to be at the heart of this mystery.

The movie touches very sensitive subject of child abuse which may not appeal to everyone but we cannot hide from the fact that sadly abuse to children still happens all around the world. If you include abuse in a movie or a book it has to be handled in a way to alert the reader/or viewer such things happen but dont do it in a way to disgust.

Ulrich Tukur is a star of the movie and Screenrush recently caught up with the actor on a promotional tour for the movie and here's the interview:

More about this movie

Monster frolics in the air with ALTITUDE

We all love our monster flicks, oh yes! so lets picture a group of young adults, who go up in a small general aviation plane and for a little flight. They ecounter some dark storm clouds but what they dont realise is there's nice nasty monster lurking in those clouds, like a giant flying octopus. If you look very closely at the end of the trailer you get a quick glimpse of the nasty pant-filling beast, oh boy it's big one!!!

Altitude is an indie horror flick directed by Kaare Andrews who has done a load of shorts recently, this movie doesnt really have any known actors in it so I think this maybe a straight to DVD in UK & Ireland sometime in 2010.

Thanks to Firstshowing for the trailer.
