Since his arrival in China’s Jungle Village, the town’s blacksmith (RZA) has been forced by radical tribal factions to create elaborate tools of destruction. When the clans’ brewing war boils over, the stranger channels an ancient energy to transform himself into a human weapon. As he fights alongside iconic heroes and against soulless villains, one man must harness this power to become savior of his adopted people.
Even though The Man With the Iron Fists is billed as a “Quentin Tarantino Presents” project, Eli Roth (Cabin Fever, Hostel, Hostel 2) and RZA are the clear creative forces behind the film. They wrote the project together (based on an original story by RZA), working for years to create the world and mythology of the film. As a producer, Roth was on the film’s set in China every day helping RZA through his directorial debut.
In the film, “Since his arrival in China’s Jungle Village, the town’s blacksmith (RZA) has been forced by radical tribal factions to create elaborate tools of destruction. When the clans’ brewing war boils over, the stranger channels an ancient energy to transform himself into a human weapon. As he fights alongside iconic heroes and against soulless villains, one man must harness this power to become savior of his adopted people.”
I recently hopped on the phone with Roth and we discussed his partnership with RZA, building the world of Iron Fists, working with Russell Crowe and avoiding fight fatigue. In regard to his own work as a director, we talked about his evolution and what we can expect from The Green Inferno. READ MORE

As part of MTV’s “Fall Movie Preview” they revealed some exclusive new looks at this quarter’s genre releases.
First you’ll see a pair of new images featuring Milla Jovovich as Alice in Resident Evil: Retribution, which blasts into theaters September 14 from director Paul W.S Anderson. Milla looks hotter than ever…
In theaters October 5, check out a new look at Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie, his stop-motion animated feature featuring the voice work of Winona Ryder, Martin Short, Catherine O’Hara, Martin Landau, Charlie Tahan and Atticus Shaffer. Based on the 1984 short, “Young Victor conducts a science experiment to bring his beloved dog Sparky back to life, only to face unintended, sometimes monstrous, consequences.”
Also shared was a new look at RZA and Eli Roth’s The Man with the Iron Fists, which stars RZA alongside Russell Crowe, Cung Le and Lucy Liu. In theaters November 2, “In feudal China, a blacksmith who makes weapons for a small village is put in the position where he must defend himself and his fellow villagers.”
Bringing back the kung-fu grindhouse gore flicks that inspired producers Eli Roth and Quentin Tarantino, RZA’s The Man With The Iron Fists looks to be a melange of the insane and excessive. A western sized buffet of eastern dishes. And now a second red band (NSFW) trailer has hit. Unfortunately I can’t even really tell the difference between this one and the last. While the internet is ablaze with this “new” trailer”, I want you to take a look and tell me if you can see any differences. New title cards, a new character card here and there but that’s about it, right?
Russell Crowe, Pam Grier, Jamie Chung, Lucy Liu, and RZA all star in the flick. “In feudal China, a blacksmith (RZA) who makes weapons for a small village is put in the position where he must defend himself and his fellow villagers.”
Head inside to check it out! I’ve included the first one below the second so you can compare and contrast. List the differences in the comments! READ MORE

Bringing back the kung-fu grindhouse gore flicks that inspired produced Eli Roth and Quentin Tarantino, yesterday RZA revealed the first eye-popping still from The Man With the Iron Fists. Now the trailer hits, and it certainly delivers on that eye-gouging gore. Since the trailer is pretty sprawling it’s hard to get a bead on the story, but I think this is a case where we’re comfortable with that taking second seat to spectacle. At least in the trailer.

RZA took to Twitter and dropped a late night bomb. Bringing back the kung-fu grindhouse gore flicks that inspired produced Eli Roth and Quentin Tarantino, RZA revealed the first eye-popping still from The Man With the Iron Fists. It warrants our attention because it’s bloody and disgusting, just like Tarantino’s Kill Bill.

Movies like The Goonies and Monster Squad will always have a special place in my heart. They show children rising up and facing their fears head on, determined to make it through their journey and emerge, grown and hardened, out the other side. That’s why I really resonated with the new music video, Boogie Man, from Grieves. It shows a boy arming himself with bubble wrap armor, a pot helmet, and a toy boy and arrow. He then proceeds to face some admittedly creepy nightmarish creatures. The music actually really works super well for this video and I’m not normally a guy who is into much hip hop.
