Tribeca ’11 REVIEW: ‘Beyond the Black Rainbow’ Hypnotizing Art

Published

on

I got a kick out of John Marrone’s review for Beyond the Black Rainbow, because it’s so incredibly descriptive and yet his e-mail to me summed it all up in a simple sentence: “‘Black Rainbow’ is unique, hypnotizing art… [it’s] not for everyone by far, but it broke so many rules. I thought it was landmark.

Panos Cosmatos’ trippy vision premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival this past weekend and has been compared to Pink Floyd’s The Wall and Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange.

Marrone calls the film “a pure 100% pharmaceutical grade trip” and makes it extremely clear that it’s not going to be for everyone; in short, you’re either going to LOVE it or DESPISE it (there’s no in between).

You can read his entire review by clicking the title above, inside you’ll dig on the trailer.

New ‘Sleepy Hollow’ Movie in the Works from Director Lindsey Anderson Beer

Sleepy Hollow movie

Paramount is heading to Sleepy Hollow with a brand new feature film take on the classic Headless Horseman tale, with Lindsey Anderson Beer (Pet Sematary: Bloodlines) announced to direct the movie back in 2022. But is that project still happening, now two years later?

The Hollywood Reporter lets us know this afternoon that Paramount Pictures has renewed its first-look deal with Lindsey Anderson Beer, and one of the projects on the upcoming slate is the aforementioned Sleepy Hollow movie that was originally announced two years ago.

THR details, “Additional projects on the development slate include… Sleepy Hollow with Anderson Beer attached to write, direct, and produce alongside Todd Garner of Broken Road.”

You can learn more about the slate over on The Hollywood Reporter. It also includes a supernatural thriller titled Here Comes the Dark from the writers of Don’t Worry Darling.

The origin of all things Sleepy Hollow is of course Washington Irving’s story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” which was first published in 1819. Tim Burton adapted the tale for the big screen in 1999, that film starring Johnny Depp as main character Ichabod Crane.

More recently, the FOX series “Sleepy Hollow” was also based on Washington Irving’s tale of Crane and the Headless Horseman. The series lasted four seasons, cancelled in 2017.
