The Last Lovecraft!!

Today I just watched an exclusive tralier to the upcoming horror comedy The Last Lovecraft: The Relic of Cthulu at Bloody Disgusting and it looks awesome! I recently did blog about Tucker and Dale vs. Evil predicting that it would be the best horror comedy of 2010. After seeing this new trailer it looks like Tucker and Dale may have new competition! It looks like an epic horror adventure with some unlikely heroes done the right way. The story itself is pretty clever as well.  Here’s the synopsis that’s been released:

“In the film Jeff, a down on his luck office worker, finds out he is the last living relative of horror novelist H.P. Lovecraft. What he doesn’t know is that Lovecraft’s monsters are real and will soon threaten the very existence of mankind. Jeff and his best friend Charlie are forced to embark on a perilous adventure and they enlist the help of high school acquaintance, Paul, a self proclaimed Lovecraft specialist. Together the three unlikely heroes must protect an alien relic and prevent the release of an ancient evil, known as Cthulhu.”

Tobey Maguire to star as Bilbo Baggins?!

Rumors are flying today as several sources like Cinematical.com and Britain’s The Sun are saying that Tobey Maguire has signed on as the lead in Guillermo del Toro’s The Hobbit!  According to Cinematical.com “AMC Entertainment blogger John Campea recently tweeted that someone close to production has leaked the same news to him. He said, “I have been personally told by a source very close to Guillermo del Toro that it’s true… Tobey Maguire IS The Hobbit.”

Though it’s not offical yet it seems to me that this could be a great choice for Bilbo. Continue reading

Creatures in the Clouds?

I just saw this cool trailer for an upcoming horror movie called Altitude. It’s dirtected by Marvel comics vet Kaare Andrews and looks like a pretty exciting little movie.  Check out the synopsis:

“Lost in a mysterious cloudbank, a rookie pilot and her four teenage friends must contend with a freak mechanical failure that first sends their small plane climbing to an impossible height, and then plummeting through endless mist.

After regaining control, the survivors are confronted with a horrifying realization – the very ground beneath them has vanished and a malevolent force lurking in the clouds wants them dead.”

Sam Raimi leaves Spider-Man 4 and I’m fine with it!

It seems that everyone is losing their damn minds over the recent news that Sam Raimi is no longer directing Spider-man 4, Tobey Maguire is no longer Peter Parker and they’ve decided now to reboot the franchise entirely. Personally I’m pretty excited about this news! I think it’s definately time to give someone else a shot at Spider-man. The way I see it is it’s like a different writer and artist taking over a comic book title. The more I think about it, the more I think that these last three Spider-man movies really weren’t all that great.

I will admit I really enjoyed the first half of the first movie. I think they did a great job with his origin. Then the second half hits with a slaughter of perhaps one of the greatest super villains in comics. Continue reading

Full Kick-Ass Trailer!

Wow, these trailers just keep getting better and better! I cannot wait for this movie to hit theaters. To me it seems like the casting has been done to almost perfection. Anyway there’s not much more to say except that this movie is gonna kick some serious ass! Now if only they could get the next comic book issue out already!! what gives?

2009’s Greatest Scares:10 Best Horror Flicks!

So it’s come to that time of the year again where everyone is making their top ten lists of 2009. Being a huge fan of horror movies I only thought it right to once again count the best of this last year. This last year personally seemed a little lighter on the real good ones than 2008. But there were still some pretty damn great flicks that delivered the shivers.

 This list is comprised of movies released in the theater or released on dvd this last year that I personally saw. So let’s get down to business!

10. Martyrs

Martyrs is a horror movie I wouldn’t recommend to anyone and it’s honestly the type of movie I try and steer clear of. Continue reading

The Best Horror Comedy of 2010!

There’s a movie I have been excited for for quite sometime and recently viewing it trailer has given me even more anticipation! I am already pretty sound in my prediction that this will be the best horror comedy of  2010! “Tucker & Dale vs. Evil” is a one of a kind, completely original horror comedy. You see Tucker and Dale are hillbillies but definately not evil psychopaths. The hard thing is convincing a group of teenagers that who are headed up into the woods on a camping trip that they’re not! 

 It seems that all of the killer Hillbilly movies are giving them a real bad rap. Now try convincing  Tucker & Dale that they aren’t being stalked by derranged teenagers! This is what director Eli Craig had to say about the storyline in his most recent interview about the film at Bloody Disgusting: Continue reading

Watch Captain America now!

Well I found that the Captain America movie can be viewed online for free! No not the new one but the old one from 1990!!! No this isn’t the best film ever, infact it kinda sucks, but it’s alot of fun anyway. It’s also quite a tough movie to track down so in the meantime while we’re all wondering who’s going to be the next movie Cap we can all take a look at the this version and see that an improvement on it shouldn’t be too hard to pull off!

Check it out here in it’s entirely!

Kick-Ass is looking pretty damn Kick-Ass!!

Yeah I just had to post this new Kick-Ass trailer here because it looks damn amazing so far! I have to say it’s truely looking like it’s been done very true to the comic book and that’s a genuine relief. Even Nick Cage seems right on point here. And do my ears decieve me or did that 12 year old just call someone a cunt?!!!

Animated Jems of the 80’s that Rocked too!

I have been gearing up for quite sometime here to do a list of the Ten Best Animated Movies Ever and though I have most of my picks in mind I recently discovered two movies I desperately need to see before choosing the final ten. Now keep in mind when making this list I am not including computer animated movies like Shrek or Ice Age. I am compiling movies that were hand drawn animation. Well the other day while looking for images from Maximum Overdrive I ran across a movie poster online that brought back some memories as a child. The 1984 movie “Warriors of the Wind”….
