Below is the trailer for Anurag Kashyap’s latestmovie THAT GIRL IN YELLOW BOOTS.Im sure many non-indian movies fans when you think of India you'll automatically think this is a Bollywood movie and will be full of big majestic song & dance number, think again.
This movie is an thriller about a young girl who searches  for her father but then finds herself working in a massage parlour. This is not your average Indian movie and Kashyap is not scared to delve into controversy with diving deep into the dark underbelly of Indian society and I'm sure this will have a few of India's version's of Mary Whitehouse standing on their high moral grounds wanting this movie scrapped.
Well if there is a ruckus in Indian media the international media are more curious that movie is to play this years Toronto Film Festival and Venice Film festival too!
The trailer is a slow burner but then picks up some momentum, trailer after the break....

Killers come in all shapes an sizes but would you ever think of a blender been a killer?!  Well in this Brazilian comedy  Reflections of a Blender (Reflexões de um Liquidificador) it talks to its owner Elvira (Ana Lúcia Torre) who has just killed her husband and disposed of him using the blender!!!
This sounds absolutely crazy but the insane you just have to check out what this is all about and a good part of the movie I understand is all about Elvira's relationship with her husband and the fact the Blender (voiced by Selton Mello) has been observing them plus he knows her darkest deep secrets too!. After efforts to look like her hubby has just vanished I think we can say they'll be a comedy of errors on show as things just go downhill, check out the trailer after the break...
