Trailer For ‘V/H/S/2′ Features TONS Of Bloody Chaos!!!

We finally get a full length trailer for V/H/S/2 and it’s worth the wait! As someone who really liked most of the original film, I’ve got no problem telling you that V/H/S/2 is much, much better. It’s tighter, shorter, leaner and a rock solid viewing experience. It’s also gory, chaotic and fun as hell – which this trailer certainly represents!

Acquired by Magnet Releasing out of Sundance as S-VHS, V/H/S/2 will be arriving on VOD platforms June 6 with a theatrical rollout set for July 12. In the film directed by Simon Barrett, Adam Wingard, Gareth Evans, Eduardo Sanchez, Gregg Hale, Jason Eisener and Timo Tjahjanto, “Inside a darkened house looms a column of TVs littered with VHS tapes, a pagan shrine to forgotten analog gods. The screens crackle and pop endlessly with monochrome vistas of static—white noise permeating the brain and fogging concentration. But you must fight the urge to relax: this is no mere movie night. Those obsolete spools contain more than just magnetic tape. They are imprinted with the very soul of evil.

From the demented minds that brought you last year’s V/H/S comes V/H/S/2, an all-new anthology of dread, madness, and gore. This follow-up ventures even further down the demented path blazed by its predecessor, discovering new and terrifying territory in the genre. This is modern horror at its most inventive, shrewdly subverting our expectations about viral videos in ways that are just as satisfying as they are sadistic. The result is the rarest of all tapes—a second generation with no loss of quality.”

Magnet officially releases The ABCs of Death on various On Demand platforms (Cable VOD, iTunes, Amazon, Xbox Zune, Playstation Market, VUDU and Google Play) TODAY January 31st with a limited theatrical run set for March 8. And now we have a new clip via Hulu – you get one guess what letter of the alphabet this comes from.

In this mega-anthology, “Twenty-six directors. Twenty-six ways to die. The ABCs of Death is perhaps the most ambitious anthology film ever conceived with productions spanning fifteen countries and featuring segments directed by over two dozen of the world’s leading talents in contemporary genre film. Inspired by children’s educational books, the motion picture is comprised of twenty-six individual chapters, each helmed by a different director assigned a letter of the alphabet. The directors were then given free reign in choosing a word to create a story involving death.”

Magnet officially releases The ABCs of Death on various On Demand platforms (Cable VOD, iTunes, Amazon, Xbox Zune, Playstation Market, VUDU and Google Play) TODAY January 31st with a limited theatrical run set for March 8. The film has 26 directors, so to celebrate 26 different websites are running exclusive interviews with the film’s directors! If you do some poking around (Badass Digest, Slashfilm, HitFix, Latino Review etc…) you can find some of the others. Eventually all 26 interviews will be collected at the The ABCs of Death Tumblr.

I’m particularly excited about my interview. Director Marcel Sarmiento (the underrated Deadgirl) has fashioned one of the true highlights of the film with his segment, “D is for Dogfight.” It’s a truly incredible bit of visual storytelling, a complete narrative contained within a beautifully shot 5 minute sequence without any dialogue.

‘The Legend Of Beaver Dam’ Looks Bloody And Awesome And Is Now Available!

Category: Movies / Indie

Hitting iTunes today is The Legend of Beaver Dam, a short with a surprisingly splattery trailer that has me itching to see the whole thing. That pic above might give you a Sandlot vibe, but this beast seems a little more hardcore than that.

“The genre-bending short film tells the story of Danny Zigwitz, a nerdy youngster who needs to save his fellow campers from a bloody massacre when a campfire song awakens an evil monster. The film has played over 75 film festivals worldwide, picking up numerous awards, including an honorable mention at Sundance and “Best Short Film” at Sitges, Fantastic Fest, and Screamfest.

‘The Legend of Beaver Dam’ is the brainchild of filmmaking team Jerome Sable and Eli Batalion, a writing-composing duo from Montreal, Quebec. Sable & Batalion are currently in post-production on their first feature-length film, Stage Fright, a horror musical about an orphaned teenager whose dream to become a theatre star turns into a terrifying nightmare when she auditions for the camp play. Black Swan meets Phantom of the Opera and Scream in this musical slasher, produced by Serendipity Point Films and starring Meat Loaf and Minnie Driver.”

Get Your Zombie Fix On The Go With ‘The Walking Dead: Assault’

Even though Telltale’s episodic take on The Walking Dead has ended, that doesn’t mean you can’t still get your TWD fix. If you’re on the go a lot, or mobile, as they say, you may want to consider dropping $1.99 on The Walking Dead: Assault. It’s a brand new episodic game that follows Rick’s story, as opposed to following a new group of survivors. It actually look pretty good, though I haven’t had the chance to check it out myself. If you’re interested, you can grab it at the iTunes App Store.

‘My Sucky Teen Romance’ Hits Blu/DVD/VOD Tomorrow! We Catch Up With Writer/Director Emily Hagins

MPI Media Group’s My Sucky Teen Romance, the breakthrough feature film from writer-director Emily Hagins (head here for a more in-depth interview), will be released on DVD and Blu-ray tomorrow, September 4. It’s also going to be available on iTunes (link here) and most VOD platforms.

I recently caught up with Hagins at the Los Angeles premiere of the film – literally seconds after the movie started – and we talked about the long journey of bringing MSTR to the screen (I think I saw the original trailer almost 2 years ago). “As of this moment I’ve just intro’d the film and it started about 15 seconds ago. I’m probably the most nervous right now and I’ll calm down in a few minutes. I just hope people have fun with it and have a good time with it and accept it for what it is, because it’s not a big budget blockbuster or anything like that. But I think the people who are going to enjoy it will enjoy it. It’s exciting to share it with people. Being done with it is pretty surreal because people were asking me what my new project was 6 months ago – and there was still so much MSTR stuff that needed to be done. So being able refer to this as a thing of the past is interesting because we sold this film over a year ago and it’s only now just finishing up.”

If you haven’t seen the film, you should check it out. She’s only getting started and is definitely a talent you want to keep our eye on. READ MORE

Joss Whedon (The Avengers, TV’s “Buffy The Vampire Slayer”) and Drew Goddard (Cloverfield) co-wrote the magnificent The Cabin In The Woods. Directed by Goddard, the film arrives on Blu-ray Disc (plus Digital Copy), DVD (plus Digital Copy) on September 18th. from Lionsgate. And if you’re feeling impatient (or don’t like discs) it will be available as a digital download – with some extras – this Tuesday, September 4th (iTunes link here).

Last week I hopped on the phone with Kristen Connolly, who plays final girl Dana in the film. We discussed the physical demands of the role, working with Drew Goddard and the differences between Cabin and her work in the upcoming The Bay.

In the film, “A rambunctious group of five college friends steal away for a weekend of debauchery in an isolated country cabin, only to be attacked by horrific supernatural creatures in a night of endless terror and bloodshed. Sound familiar? Just wait. As the teens begin to exhibit standard horror movie behavior, a group of technicians in a control room are scrutinizing, and sometimes even controlling, every move the terrified kids make. With their efforts continually thwarted by the all-powerful eye in the sky, do they have any chance of escape?”

A must-see, refreshing surprise for horror fans, YellowBrickRoad follows its successful theatrical run with a nationwide DVD & iTunes release August 2, 2011. It will be available on various On Demand locations September 2. Click here to purchase or rent it NOW on iTunes. It is also available on Amazon and Netflix.

Released through The Collective’s home-video partnership with Vivendi Universal, YellowBrickRoad–as well as the other titles in the Bloody Disgusting series–features unrated content, bonus features and special packaging. Called “one helleva wild ride,” this is one horror flick that brings terror to a new level.

“Filmmakers Jesse Holland and Andy Mitton have given us YellowBrickRoad, the surreal story of the inescapable and terrifying insanity that accompanies getting lost.

In the fall of 1940, the entire population of Friar, New Hampshire–all 572 of them–abandoned their homes, their possessions and their lives and walked up an ancient trail, never to be seen alive again. Their fates remained a mystery for over seventy years, until a team of researchers discover the trailhead and attempt to retrace the path the doomed citizens of Friar took. A few among them believe they will find something terrible in the forest. But it is the forest that will find something terrible in them.”

YellowBrickRoad was an official Slamdance selection, and played at The Atlanta Film Festival and Screamfest to critical and audience acclaim, and won best feature at the New York Horror Film Festival.

This is the first mention I’ve made in the music section about the earthquake/tsunami/nuclear situation that is going on in Japan. It’s not because I’m an insensitive prick (okay, maybe just a little), but it’s because there wasn’t really much I could relate to the situation. But if we think about it, the people in that situation are dealing with horrors far worse than we can imagine. They’ve lost their homes, their families and their livelihood. But now, we can help.

Several music groups partnered up and have put together a 38-track iTunes exclusive album for $9.99 with songs from some of the biggest names in music, including Lady Gaga, Red Hot Chili Peppers, John Lennon, U2, Michael Buble, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Madonna, Justin Timberlake, and many more. Proceeds from each sale will go directly to the Japanese Red Cross Society. You can get your copy here.
