If you’re like me, there can never be enough good vampire movies made. And Chan-wook Park, (he of “Oldboy,” & the “Vengeance,” trilogy) looks like he has a doozy on his hands. The movie is called “Thirst.” Here is the un-subtitled trailer: The subtitles read as follows: ‘You shall not murder.’ ‘You shall not commit …
It often seemed that provoker was just another hyphenate on writer/director Sam Fuller’s resume. So, when one considers his last movie made in the US, “White Dog,” it’s not surprising it garnered the reaction it did. In fact, one could assume that Fuller was courting it.
Ridley Scott’s new movie, “Robin Hood,” is set for release May 24th, 2010. This now completely fills the month of May with high-profile releases.

Courtney Hunt’s “Frozen River,” seems like the prototypical indie movie. Just add water. (Or, in this case, ice.) It’s the story of Ray, a single mother after her husband relapsed and ran off with their down payment on a double-wide trailer. She has two great kids, but the older one wants to get a job …
You need to see this. It’s unbelieveable. The website Mystery Man on Film has posted something amazing. In 1978, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Lawrence Kasdan sat down to talk about an idea that George and Steve had. The character’s name? Indiana Smith.

Elisabeth Moss, (Peggy Olsen from AMC’s wonderful “Mad Men,”) has signed on to join Sarah Jessica Parker and Hugh Grant in the new movie, “Did You Hear About the Morgans?” The romantic comedy is about a New York couple who witness a murder and are installed in the witness protection plan in Wyoming.

If you’re like me, you thought you’d had enough for Will Ferrell. Every movie it’s the same, with him playing the overgrown child. I get it, it’s not funny. And then I saw “Step Brothers,” and all of a sudden, the things that I was growing so weary of seemed new and funny. Maybe it’s …
