Great Kills Road tells the story of a mans journey to find his ex-wife and his metally handicapped son. He must go to New York City to search for her and the film shows an foreigner trying to cope with the sheer scale of New York metropolis and this I can relate to. Coming from Scotland the largest city in my country is Glasgow (1.5 million) and I have worked and travelled many times overseas and last summer I travelled to China to Guangzhou a medium sized city for the country and it was 12.5 million, 3 times biger in the whole population of Scotland!!! Its even daunting at times even going to London (which I have to go to in 2 weeks), its the small fish in a big pond!
Great Kills Road is an intimate Family drama and at times feels like a documentary but the trailer below does show that but eventually the trailer does shift gears into a intriguing piece of work. The movie has been a big popular movie when it networked the Dutch Film festivals receiving very positive views, like the source of this post I have tried to get more information on the movie but have been unable to.
Great Kills Road is directed by Tjebbo Penning, check out the trailer below:

Fantastic trailer for Argentinian Thriller Cano Dorado
source TwitchFilm
Argentina are a country reknowned for creating many crime thriller movies by the dozen, its like the countries filmakers where born to make these movies and below is an exceptional movie called Cano Dorado (The Golden Gun).
Many Argentian thrillers seem to be very slow paced, stylish ala arthouse but Cano Dorado directed by Eduardo Pinto is very much different, raw in your face and full of energy very refreshing for the country's movie industry and I would have no quarrels of watching this, great stuff.
Here's the movie's synopsis which was posted on TwitchFilm:

Here's the movie's synopsis which was posted on TwitchFilm:
This is the story of Panceta, a young laborer from one of the poorer suburbs in Greater Buenos Aires. He lives with his mother, a widow, who greatly misses her husband, as does Panceta his father. Panceta's life is focused on his work: he's taken over his fathers forge, as well as working at a pipe factory. But his ambitions to make money have made him turn to manufacturing home-made guns and selling them in the outlying districts. Inexperienced and unaware of the danger, he is challenged by the local mafia.
One night when delivering his guns he meets Clara, a young girl working at the local community hall. They fall in love and decide to run away, going off in a freeing boat trip along the river. A man in love becomes an easy prey for his enemies, especially for Tacom, a powerful local mafia boss.
What had begun as a game turns grey and ever darker - the consequences are tragic and tormenting.

We Will We Will "SUCK" you!! Trailer for the vampire rock comedy
source GordonTheWhale
When I first saw this I thought someone was taking the piss, but no SUCK just looks a fantastically funny comedy directed by Rob Stefaniuk . Basically its a story about a failed band who will do anything to become famous and rich of course they do, they all become vampires!!!
The movie has a polethra of musical talents involved icluding Iggy Pop! Alice Cooper who just looks at home in this movie and even vegan proud Moby as a character called Beef! oh I forgot the king of modern B-Movies Malcom McDowell is in it with a great dirty eye patch, this just look silly but also a fun movie as well.
This movie debuted at the 2009 Toronto Film Festival and has did the rounds at a few other festivals hopefully this year maybe the odd UK or Irish festival as well. Talking of festivals it will be one of the many movies playing at the SXSW Festival which kicked off today in Austin Texas USA.
