Lionsgate/Summit has released a new image for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, which depicts Katniss returning home. I know some of you wonder why we cover the series – it’s because of its thematic tues to Battle Royale and its’ dystopian take on the future. I know I liked the first movie.

New Images, Missing Characters From ‘The Hunger Games: Catching Fire’

EW has landed three new looks inside Lionsgate’s The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, directed by Francis Lawrence for release on November 22, 2013.

With the images accompanied a cover story in which Lawrence revealed that Bonnie, Twill, and Darius will not make it into the sequel. On how the movie will now introduce District 13, Lawrence would only say that “it was fun figuring out new ways around things and new ways of doing things.

It’s as agonizing for us to lose things from the book as it is for a fan,” says producer Nina Jacobson. “I want every single thing in there. But you know what? If you have to give up something in order to give more time to Katniss and Gale or to Effie as she starts to feel a conscience, you make the sacrifices in order to serve the characters and themes that are more essential.READ MORE

[BD Review] Evan Says ‘Seven Psychopaths’ Has “Better Kills Than Most Slasher Films”

Starring Colin Farrell, Woody Harrelson, Tom Waits, Christopher Walken, Abbie Cornish and Sam Rockwell, CBS Films’ Seven Psychopaths follows a struggling screenwriter (Farrell) who inadvertently becomes entangled in the Los Angeles criminal underworld after his oddball friends (Walken and Rockwell) kidnap a gangster’s (Harrelson) beloved Shih Tzu. It sounds and looks like a comedy, but I assure you that it’s insanely violent.

Says Evan Dickson: “No, Seven Psychopaths is not a horror movie. But it is a great one. And I feel comfortable reviewing it on this site because it has copious gore, including a protracted serial killer segment that involves the Zodiac killer, and lots of bunnies. With more (and better) kills than most slasher films, you guys won’t be disappointed.

Boston And Pittsburgh! Win Free Tickets To ‘Seven Psychopaths!’

I love Seven Psychopaths. It’s not horror, it’s a crime comedy. But it is supremely gory. If you remember director Martin McDonagh’s In Bruges you know he doesn’t f*ck around. And, to put it crassly, this movie has a sh*tload more kills than that one (it’s also smart, funny and thoughtful). Thus, I feel like I can wholeheartedly recommend it to you. While it might not be scary, it’s certainly got more of the red stuff than most of the R-rated horror movies that have come out this year. I’ll fill you guys in with my review later this month.

The film, “Follows a struggling screenwriter (Colin Farrell) who inadvertently becomes entangled in the Los Angeles criminal underworld after his oddball friends (Christopher Walken and Sam Rockwell) kidnap a gangster’s (Woody Harrelson) beloved Shih Tzu.” The movie also stars Abbie Cornish, Tom Waits and Olga Kurylenko.

And if you live in Boston or Pittsburgh you can win tickets! We’re giving away 5 pairs of tickets for each city! The Pittsburgh show is on October 9th at the SouthSide Works at 730PM. The Boston show is on October 10th at AMC Boston Commons at 7PM. If you’re up for that shoot an email to [email protected]. In the subject write “Bloody-Disgusting” and the city you are RSVPing to. For example, if you would like RSVP to the Boston screening you should write “Bloody-Disgusting-Boston” in the subject and in the body of the email just write your name. The first 5 responders will each get a pair of tickets. Winners will get a response from that email to confirm they have won. If you don’t hear back then you haven’t won.
