Under the Dome

[TV] Full Trailer For “Under The Dome” Gets You Up To Speed

We’ve got a look at the full trailer for the Stephen King adaptation “Under the Dome,” and it’s not looking too shabby for a network mini-series! I feel like it paints some of the characters in broad strokes, but then again that could just be a trailer thing. The show has plenty of time to deepen them out.

‘Under the Dome’ is the story of a small town that is suddenly and inexplicably sealed off from the rest of the world by an enormous transparent dome. The town’s inhabitants must deal with surviving the post-apocalyptic conditions while searching for answers to what this barrier is, where it came from, and if and when it will go away.

The 13-episode summer series will premiere June 24th on CBS.

It stars Mike Vogel, Rachelle Lefevre, Dean Norris, Natalie Martinez, Britt Robertson, Alexander Koch, Colin Ford, Nicholas Strong, Jolene Purdy, and Aisha Hinds. READ MORE

[Review] ‘The Caller’ Had Great Potential

Now in limited theaters everywhere from Samuel Goldwyn Films is Mathew Parkhill’s The Caller, which stars Stephen Moyer and Rachelle Lefevre of “True Blood” and Twilight fame, respectively. Evan Dickson writes in with his thoughts on the chiller, and I couldn’t agree more: it’s a pretty outstanding concept that should have been much, much better…

As it stands, it’s a good movie with great potential that I wanted to work just a little bit better than it did…. Ultimately, the worst thing I can say about ‘The Caller’ could also pass for a compliment. I liked it enough to want more out of it.

You can read the entire review by clicking the title above. Check out our exclusive video interviews with Parkhill and Moyer, and our report from the red carpet event in Puerto Rico.

[Special Report] ‘The Caller’ Premiere in Puerto Rico: Lights! Camera! Hurricane!

Samuel Goldwyn Films’ suspense thriller The Caller is headed to select cities this Friday, August 26th. Directed by Matthew Parkhill from a script by Sergio Casci and starring Rachelle Lefevre (Twilight, New Moon), Stephen Moyer (“True Blood”, Quills), Ed Quinn (“True Blood”, “Eureka”) Luis Guzman (Boogie Nights) and Lorna Raver (Drag Me To Hell), the film centers around a recent divorcee who starts receiving some seriously needy and deranged phone calls on the old-timey landline in her new apartment.

Originally set to film in New York, the movie instead set up shop in Puerto Rico to take advantage of the territory’s tax incentives and the assistance of the local film commission. The subsequent plan was to shoot San Juan and pass it off as New York, but the filmmakers wisely decided to take full advantage of the exotic local flavor (and avoid the insurmountable task of finding more than two square feet of the Caribbean island that could pass for the Big Apple) and adapted the story to take place in the Puerto Rican capital instead.

Earlier this week I flew out to the island – which was literally enveloped by Hurricane Irene at the time – to attend the premiere, get a feel for the vibes of San Juan (the city is something of a character in the movie) and with speak with some of the film’s cast and crew about their soon to be notoriously difficult 23 day shoot. A shoot most of the people I spoke to felt was appropriately mirrored by the many, many difficulties that beset the premiere and, well… everything that went down over the past few days.

Check it out after the jump.
