Two New Melancholia One Sheets Will Spark Your Interest

Now on various VOD with a November 11 limited release in the cards, below you’ll find two new one sheets from Lars von Trier’s Melancholia that are sure to “spark” your interest, one of which is a “motion” poster.

Starring Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlotte Rampling, Alexander Skarsgaard, Stellan Skarsgard, Udo Kier and John Hurt, “Dunst and Gainsbourg play sisters whose lives are drifting apart as the universe spectacularly unravels in what Von Trier describes as a beautiful movie about the end of the world.”

While the film is barely horror, it’s a horrific look at what would happen if we all knew the world world end in just 5 days.

Hopefully this official theatrical trailer is the last of the trailers as I feel like I’m pounding this little guy in your face. But maybe you need it, someone needs to tell you just how good Lars von Trier’s Melancholia is.

Starring Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlotte Rampling, Alexander Skarsgaard, Stellan Skarsgard, Udo Kier and John Hurt, Magnolia Pictures will release the dramatic end of the world thriller on VOD October 7, before sticking it in limited theaters on November 11.

I loved, loved, loved it. And as I’ve stated before while not a horror film, Melancholia will emotional destroy you. That’s a promise.

Starring Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlotte Rampling, Alexander Skarsgaard, Stellan Skarsgard, Udo Kier and John Hurt, Magnolia Pictures has announced that they will release Lars von Trier’s dramatic thriller Melancholia (review) on VOD October 7, before sticking it in limited theaters on November 11.

Not the kind of film you’d want to see on Thanksgiving weekend, a UK trailer has been added below that’s a bit more representational of the tonal shifting that occurs in the end of the world thriller. While not a horror film, Melancholia will emotional destroy you. That’s a promise.

Fantastic Fast, Austin’s annual celebration of genre greatness, just added seventeen new films to its slate, along with a New York Asian Film Festival that will be comprised of four surprise 35mm screenings of Hong Kong exploitation flicks from the late 80′s and early 90′s!

Melancholia is probably the most high profile addition, but there’s a lot of very impressive films making their way into the line-up, including Nacho Vigalondo’s Extraterrestrial, Jaume Balaguero’s Sleep Tight, and Pastorela: A Christmas Play, which sounds like it could be this year’s feel good holiday event. I’m sure they’ll be at least one or two more waves announced before the fest starts, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for The Thing, The Skin I Live In, The Wicker Tree and The Theatre Bizarre.

Check out the full list beyond the break.

‘Melancholia’ Will End Your World This October

I begin to doubt myself every single time I post an article highlighting Lars von Trier’s Melancholia. Sure, it’s about the end of the world, but it looks more like a drama than something for genre fans. Having just caught a screening of the film, I can assure you that, while a drama on the surface, Melancholia is a deeply disturbing film that will rock your very core.

Starring Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlotte Rampling, Alexander Skarsgaard, Stellan Skarsgard, Udo Kier and John Hurt, Magnolia Pictures has announced that they will release the dramatic thriller on VOD October 7, before sticking it in limited theaters on November 11. Although, I’m pretty sure this isn’t the kind of film you want to see before your Thanksgiving holiday…

This morning there’s a slew of interesting little nuggets of news worthy of a quick blurb. First, inside you’ll find the latest official poster for Magnolia’s Melancholia, directed by the controversial Lars Von Trier for release on November 4. In addition, we’ve updated our image gallery with a rash of new stills from the pic that follow Kristen Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg, two sisters whose lives are drifting apart as the universe spectacularly unravels in what Von Trier describes as a beautiful movie about the end of the world.

Also beyond the break is a link to behind-the-scenes photos from the set of the now-filming redo of Total Recall. The pics aren’t eventful but do give us a look at both Colin Farrell and Jessica Biel in costume. Len Wiseman directs for Columbia Pictures with an August 3, 2012 date set in stone. The movie is ditches the Martian storyline from the original pic and instead involves nation states Euromerica and New Shanghai, with Douglas Quaid (Farrell), a factory worker in the latter who begins to believe he is a spy — although he doesn’t know for which side.

About a month ago, a trailer for the Madhouse Animation Blade anime series hit the web, which is rumored to be premiering stateside later this year on G4TV. The series, written by Kenta Fukasaku (Battle Royale and, sadly, Battle Royale II), will focus on Blade teaming up with a young vampire hunter from Japan, plus Noah Van Helsing and his dog Razor, against the evil Deacon Frost and his minions in Asia. The opening credits have begun making the rounds today, which features a whole lot of fire and Blade flashing his fancy gadgets around.

“This Earth is evil, we don’t need to grieve for it… nobody will miss it.”

The first clip from Lars Von Trier’s Melancholia has found its way online and has proven why we should be covering this “end of the world drama.” The above quote comes out of star Kirsten Dunst’s mouth as she explains her feelings towards the impending end of the world to co-star Charlotte Gainsbourg.

You’ll also find a new red band TV Spot inside.

Magnolia Pictures recently announced a November 4, 2011 release date for Von Trier’s apocalyptic drama also starring Kiefer Sutherland, Charlotte Rampling, Alexander Skarsgaard, Stellan Skarsgard, Udo Kier and John Hurt.

In Melancholia, Dunst and Gainsbourg play sisters whose lives are drifting apart as the universe spectacularly unravels in what Von Trier describes as a beautiful movie about the end of the world (when a planet called Melancholia crashed into Earth).

From the director of Antichrist, check out the clipage inside.

Before the official website crashed, the first poster and images were put on display for Lars von Trier’s Melancholia, an end of the world drama starring Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlotte Rampling, Alexander Skarsgaard, Stellan Skarsgard, Udo Kier, and John Hurt.

While the apocalyptic tale is being pegged as a drama, Von Trier is always extremely cryptic about his features that always seem to delve deep into the dark psyche.

You’ll find the one sheet inside, featuring Dunst, with more images at the film’s website (if it ever goes back up).

The end of the world is coming, courtesy of Danish director Lars Von Trier.

The official website was launched for Von Trier’s Melancholia that confirms the plot, an unknown planet hidden behind the sun has come out of hiding and is about to hit the Earth.

Starring Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlotte Rampling, Alexander Skarsgaard, Stellan Skarsgard, Udo Kier, and John Hurt, Magnolia Pictures has already acquired domestic distro rights for the pic described as “A beautiful movie about the end of the world.” With Von Trier, it’s unknown if he’s being ironic, although the footage is nothing short of spectacular.

One criticism: at the end of the footage, it looks more like the planet is passing rather than about to actually hit Earth. Not sure if that’s intentional, but they may want to rework that FX in my opinion….

Lars Von Trier’s ‘Melancholia’ an Oxymoron?

There’s been so much news I completely forgot about Lars Von Trier’s end of the world genre drama Melancholia!

It was announced that Magnolia Pictures has picked up the North American distribution rights to the film featuring the all-star cast Kirsten Dunst, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kiefer Sutherland, Charlotte Rampling, Alexander Skarsgaard, Stellan Skarsgard, Udo Kier, and John Hurt.

First official plot details were revealed as Dunst and Gainsbourg play sisters whose lives are drifting apart as the universe spectacularly unravels in what Von Trier describes as “a beautiful movie about the end of the world.” I’d say this gives the title a slightly ironic appeal?

Obviously, this could end up being a film very not worthy of Bloody Disgusting’s coverage, but we’ll play it out until we see some images and a trailer.
