[Comic-Con ’13] Sneak A Peak At the “‘Godzilla’ Encounter” NOW; Newly Discovered Concept Art!
The damn of the San Diego Comic-Con is upon us, and fans are in a frenzy to get all the first looks they can get. Skreeonk did some digging on the Godzilla viral website and stumbled across the above concept art from the Gareth Edwards-directed reboot. Says the site, the recently released GEncounters app will be revealing this image piece by piece. More coming soon, I’m sure.
In other news, our friends at Collider, as of this writing, are getting a sneak peak and walking into Warner Bros. and Legendary’s “Godzilla Encounter” at the Comic-Con. You can get your first look at this astounding promotion below, and keep up to the minute with @colliderfrosty or hit up his Instagram.
In theaters May 16, “An epic rebirth to Toho’s iconic Godzilla, this spectacular adventure pits the world’s most famous monster against malevolent creatures who, bolstered by humanity’s scientific arrogance, threaten our very existence.“
While there are Godzillas on display here, we don’t think they’re from the new film. Word has it you can see the new design at the end, but are not allowed to photograph it. Evan will be there tomorrow to check it out and maybe write in with a description of the beast if he hasn’t been photographed. Head to Collider for a bunch more pics!
Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
