The Asylum, the film studio famous for cashing in on others’ success with knockbusters like Transmorphers and Snakes on a Train, embarks on destroying the Titanic again. This time nobody’s safe from icebergs not ships, submarines, airplanes, or even surfers! The movie opens with a man glacier surfing, a (real) sport where surfers wait for a piece of ice to break off a glacier and fall into the ocean then

Director Joe Johnston says Captain AMERICA won’t be a “jingoistic American flag-waver” in the upcoming movie: Captain America: The First Avenger. “He’s just a good person. We make a point of that in the script: Don’t change who you are once you go from Steve Rogers to this super-soldier; you have to stay who you are inside, that’s really what’s important more than your strength and everything.” Johnston seems to be

From the people that brought you the Scary Movie franchise comes Vampires Suck, a parody of the Twilight films. And while there’s a lot of source material to lampoon, you don’t necessarily need to have seen it all to get high-brow jokes such as vampires like to eat Count Chocula cereal. Vampires Suck covers the first two Twilight films but also manages to S-U-B-T-L-Y reference the third despite it not

Live-action and animated characters rarely work well together but I gotta admit the Smurfs look great in 3D! They have a real grittiness to them but they’re as cute as ever. I could just eat them up! And unlike similar hybrid moves like Garfield, it’s not only acceptable if the Smurfs look like they don’t belong in this world, it’s expected. I was also skeptical of the premise that Gargamel

The monster in this new IFC film isn’t a human with a lot of legs, it’s a lot creepier than that. A German surgeon is obsessed with creating what he calls the Human Centipede by connecting his subjects via their gastric system. And according to the movie’s tagline it’s “100% medically accurate.” Human Centipede will only have a limited release in theaters (April 30), but will also be available on

Legendary Pictures, the same studio behind the much anticipated Clash of the Titans remake, is bringing Godzilla back to America in 2012. But Zilla won’t be making a return appearance. Studio executives want to avoid the look and feel of the 1998 film. “Our plans are to produce the Godzilla that we, as fans, would want to see. We intend to do justice to those essential elements that have allowed

SuicideGirls: Guide to Living is the newest movie from SuicideGirls.com, an adult website dedicated to pierced, tattooed, and all-around unconventional models. Hostesses Rambo, Rigel, Radeo, Friskey, and Chloe promise to “teach you 13 essential life lessons” ranging from How to Tie a Tie to How to Kill a Vampire. But instead of a series of long-winded instructions that would put you to sleep, each how-to is presented like a music

If you’re gonna stereotype why be subtle about it? That’s the idea behind blaxploitation films and Black Dynamite is the best since I’m Gonna Git You Sucka. Set in the 70s and it uses Grindhouse-esque editing inconsistencies to further mimic films of the period. When Black Dynamite’s brother is killed during a drug sting, he vows to clean up the streets one ass whoopin’ at a time. But the real

The apocalyptic movie 2012 isn’t even out yet but Director Roland Emmerich is already working on a sequel for the small screen. “It is about the resettling of Earth. That is very, very fascinating. (2012 writer/producer) Harald Kloser and I came up with the idea and we have the luxury of having a producer on the film who is a big TV producer, Mark Gordon. We said to Mark, ‘Why

The Grudge continues with two Direct-to-DVD releases: Ju-on: Shiroi Roujo (Grudge: Old Lady in White) & Ju-on Kuroi Shoujo (Grudge: Girl in Black). The movies are short (1 hr ea.) and like the previous (Japanese) movies are told through a series of even shorter interconnecting stories. The actual movies though are only vaguely connected in that the Girl in Black ends in the house that spawned the original grudge while

If you’re not a teenager or a Megan Fox fanatic then this might not be the movie for you. It begins with the overused convention of starting at the end of the story. Jennifer’s BFF Needy is locked up in a psychiatric hospital narrating how she got there and how her friend is not like other girls. You see, Jennifer has a body to die for, literally. After she goes

Lenore Harker (Bijou Phillips) is just one thesis paper away from earning her master’s but when she gets pregnant, she decides to leave school and have the baby. After an unexpected growth spurt, Lenore is rushed to hospital for an emergency C-section. It’s Alive. Despite a large looking head, everything seems alright until they cut the umbilical cord. Lenore awakes to a police interrogation about the gruesome murder of her

It’s the remake no one asked for, Ed Wood’s cult classic Plan 9 from Outer Space! (original trailer below) It’s nonsensical plot about aliens that reanimate the dead to stop the Earth from making a sun-bomb, non-existent production value ($60,000), and a drugged up Bela Lugosi earned it the title of “worst movie ever made” but that didn’t discourage the people “pulling the strings” behind Plan 9. And judging by

Beware! The Blob, also known as Son of Blob, is a sequel that never takes itself too seriously, even breaking the fifth wall when a character is devoured by the Blob while watching the original movie. However other than that one scene, no references are ever made to any previous encounters with the Blob as knowing its weakness from the get-go would make for a very short movie. Beware! The

Floating in the Chukchi Sea off Alaska’s northern coast is a mysterious oily substance of monstrous proportions (13 miles by 1/4 mile) that is consuming all marine life in its path. Analysis reveals that despite its appearance it’s not an oil spill but an unknown type of algae. However anyone who’s ever seen Creepshow 2 knows exactly what this thing is – The Blob!
