More Trailers for March

Here are a few more new trailers, check them out:

Firstly we have The Signal, a new sci-fi flick starring Laurence Fishburne and it looks interesting, let's hope it'll stay that way:

Next is The Giver which looks like another entry in the "kid heroes" category which is a trend that should die, but at least there great adult actors in it as well like Jeff Bridges, Meryl Streep, Alexander Skarsgard - I just hope they have more screen time than the teenagers:

Lastly here is a teaser trailer for the Peanuts movie. As a kid I loved the comics about Snoopy and Charlie Brown, they had a strange atmosphere to them. The teaser looks interesting, it's 3D, but not your traditional one - let's see how it works for an hour and a half.

Dead Snow 2 - Full Trailer

The first Dead Snow movie was great fun with lots of gore and action, every horror fans dream. Most of the time the sequels don't match the movies they are following, but this new trailer looks absolutely amazing and hilarious, can't wait to see the film:

Dead Snow 2

Happy holidays everyone, sorry for being inactive again for a few weeks, these last days of the year are always a rush, lots of last minute jobs and Christmas bonanza.

So anyway there are lot of new visually interesting things out there and since I'm a horror fan let me start with a trailer that is closest to my hear: Dead Snow 2. The first one was a real treat, I've always loved Naziplotation movies and it seemed that the genre is dead for while till Dead Snow, Iron Sky and Frankenstein's Army came along.

Here is a teaser for the sequel and it looks like it's going to be a treat the second time around as well, enjoy:

Grow Your Own POD

David Cronenberg always had been one of my favorite filmmakers but now it's not a movie he is releasing but an interactive website where through a series of simulations you get to create your own POD, a creature which is connected to you. I know it sounds weird but if you have some time on your hand try it out, it can be a deep and disturbing experience... or maybe I just clicked the wrong answers? See it for yourself, this is the best interactive site I have seen so far:

Asian Directors #2. - Shin'ya Tsukamoto

Shin'ya Tsukamoto is another interesting character on the asian movie scene. His first hit was Tetsuo, a black and white, completely surreal and unique vision of a human becoming a machine. When I've seen it for the first time I was surprised, I didn't know that you can make a movie like this - somewhere between Lynch and Cronenberg on the edge of insanity. He was the producer as well so I guess he could do whatever he wanted with the movie, and that's exactly how it looks, like a very intimate confession of a misunderstood artist.

Since then Shin'ya has made a second Tetsuo movie with a higher budget, even crazier visuals and lots of gore, Body Hammer is a worthy sequel topping the first one in almost every aspect - the only thing it can't do is to cause the same kind of effect the first did, the feeling of unknown, never before seen style of film making. 

Shin'ya's name became praised by fans of the weird all over the world, his movies have a cult following, so if you are into crazy visuals, experimental film making and you don't mind gore check out his films, you won't be disappointed. 

Tetsuo - The Full Movie:

Tetsuo 2 - Body Hammer Trailer:

Tokyo Fist Trailer:

I, Frankenstein

I mean... what the fuck is this?? Who gave this the greenlight? Why? So many questions. The stupidity already starts at the title since Frantenstein was the name of the doctor and not the creation. Pff...

New Interesting Trailers

The first one is called Escape From Tomorrow and it looks very weird. I don't know what to expect but I'll check it out for sure when it's out, maybe just to run away after 5 minutes, but hey, at least some people are still experimenting with films. By the way, it was shot in Disneyland, which fact in itself makes it a very interesting project.

The second one is a more generic looking claustrophobic space horror, but if it stays true to the genre and doesn't try to be more than it is could be a really fun ride, looking forward to it. Last Days on Mars.

Asian directors 1. - Noboru Iguchi

Noboru Iguchi is a film director / actor, famous for creating the craziest movies in Japan, which is a big thing since the Asian cinema always been a little on the edge. His movies are not serious and not even good for that matter, but as a surreal gore-fest they really do their job. Noboru came from the adult video industry, his first "big hit" was Machine Girl, here is the trailer:

Later came Robo-geisha, putting the stakes even higher:

And finally here is his short film made for the ABC's of Death compilation horror feature, this just really takes the cake for me, F is for Fart:

The Backwater Gospel

The Blackwater Gospel is an animated short from 2011 directed by Bo Mathorne and produced by the Animation Workshop (www.animwork.dk). It's in 3D but the characters, backgrounds are very artistic, almost watercolor looking, really cool animated short with a bizarre story. Check it out:

New Trailers

First we have the new trailer for the upcoming Thor sequel. The first one was really good in my opinion and it shaped the Avengers movie to become one of the greatest superhero movies of all time. This one looks also promising, though Kenneth Branagh is not the director anymore, check it out:

The next one is the trailer for the new Ridley Scott movie and it looks really interesting with a lot of good actors. Prometheus was a real miss I think and I really hope that he can redeem himself with a good movie soon enough, maybe this is the one? The Counselor.

Lastly here is an independent horror comedy with a really strange plot titled Bad Milo. It's story about a guy who realizes that a parasite monster is living in his intestines. I can't help it but I find the creature somehow friendly and kind looking, it's a must see for horror fans, check it out.

Frankenstein's Army

Several years ago there was a Dutch nazi themed horror film in development titled Worst-Case-Scenario, it got a few nice trailers and even a good buzz on the internet, but unfortunately it was never realized. I slowly forgot about the whole project until I came across this little trailer:

This one is R Rated, so make sure to login before you click play:

This one is a little softer, but missing some cool scenes:

After watching it I noticed some familiar "creature" faces from the Worst-Case-Scenario trailers, I've checked the director, Richard Raaphorst and remembered his name because I emailed him back then about the movie and he replied, we exchanged a few emails, he was a nice guy. So finally he made his movie, I'm really happy for him, it took many years, but I'm sure it payed off. It's already out on dvd and blueray, you can check it out for yourself. Frankenstein's Army.

And here are the Worst-Case-Scenario trailers from many years ago, they still hold up and I'm sure you can see the similarities.

New R rated Riddick trailer

It's opening september 6th in the USA, september 5th here in Hungary, I hope they will show it without dubbing because that just makes it impossible for me to sit trough a movie, hungarian dubbing is not like it's used to be 20-30 years ago... just a side note.

Anyway, for the third (if you don't count the animated short and the games) installment it looks like they made much more like the first one, Pitch Black, which for me was always the favorite one. The second movie was still great, but it was a bit detached for me, more shallow, but now we are in a closed environment again, which fact helps it make it feel more personal, claustrophobic, helpless - all good factors for a great horror film. This is the first R rated trailer from the new movie, I hope throughout august we will get some more of these, Riddick is bad ass, check it out and make sure to be logged into youtube, otherwise it won't let you watch it:

Hemlock Grove Werewolf Transformation

Hemlock Grove is the new series produced by Netflix, which means it won't air week after week, but the whole series is going to be released on April the 19th. It's going to be a show about werewolves, personally I'm not a big fan of them but this transformation scene is quite brave and interesting looking. It's cgi though, so it will never look as cool as it did in the American Werewolf in London, but at least they are trying something new. I also like the fact that the guy transforms into a real looking wolf, not some kind of weird / funny trans-human-wolf character. Enjoy!

Evil Dead Remake Trailer

Now here is something you don't see very often, a horror movie trailer, which is scary in itself. It's been a long time ago since the last movie from the Evil Dead franchise came out, and watching this trailer you realize that other than the plot and the location, the whole atmosphere is very different. The original films were scary, but in a fun way, always lightening you up with a few jokes in between two mutilations. This it's they are not fucking around and while Sam Riami, the director of the originals is the producer, he let Fede Avarez (the new director) take the franchise to a different direction. I loved the old movies and I love the fact that they reinvented the series instead of copying the originals.

Hold on, here it goes:
