6.26 New '6 SOULS' Clips:


The Blu-ray/DVD release of '6 Souls', is just a few days away - a handful of clips from the upcoming flick have made their way online..








Press Release: Anchor Bay Entertainment and RADiUS- TWC announced today the Blu-ray™ and DVD release of the gripping psychological thriller, 6 SOULS. From the producers of The Ring, 6 SOULS stars multiple-Oscar® nominee and Golden Globe® Award winner Julianne Moore (HBO’s Game Change, Magnolia), and Golden Globe® Award winners Jonathan Rhys Meyers (Showtime’s “The Tudors,” Bend It Like Beckham) and Frances Conroy (HBO’s “Six Feet Under,” The Aviator). Written by Michael Cooney (Identity) and co-directed by Måns Mårlind and Björn Stein (Storm), 6 SOULS heads to retail on July 2, 2013 for an SRP of $29.99 for the Blu-ray™ and $24.98 for the DVD.

After the death of her husband, forensic psychiatrist Dr. Cara Harding’s (Julianne Mooore) faith in God has been shaken, but not her belief in science. In an attempt to open her up to accepting unexplainable psychiatric theories, her father introduces her to Adam (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), a patient with multiple personalities, who takes on some of the physical characteristics of his other personalities. Cara quickly discovers that Adam’s personalities are murder victims, and the more she finds out about him and his past, the closer she and her loved ones are to becoming murder victims themselves.

“Moore is absolutely terrific as Cara Harding, maintaining a dedicated, delicate portrayal of the doctor’s internal debate even when confronted with the unexplainable,” said Ken Hanley of Fangoria. “Chills in the film range from the psychological to supernatural, brought about by seasoned performers who know how to sell a thrill,” added Jake Dee of ArrowInTheHead.com. “Rhys Meyers alters transition with a creepy, violent snap back of the neck before coming to with complete clarity as a new soul.”

6 SOULS also stars Jeffrey DeMunn (Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile), Nathan Corddry (The Ugly Truth, The Invention of Lying), Brooklynn Proulx (Brokeback Mountain), and Brian Anthony Wilson (Law Abiding Citizen, Limitless).

Jeff Goldblum and Bill Pullman are officially confirmed for Roland Emmerich's upcoming sequel to his 1996 blockbuster hit 'INDEPENDENCE DAY', The aliens are set to return July 3rd, 2015..

It appears at this time mega-star Will Smith was not being asked back.. Roland Emmerich said Smith wont be asked back because - he's too expensive, but he'd also be too much of a marquee name. It would be too much."

What is known about the plot: The story will take place 20 years after the events of the first film - "The humans knew that one day the aliens would come back… And they know that the only way you can really travel in space is through wormholes. So for the aliens, it could take two or three weeks, but for us that’s 20 or 25 years…. It’s a changed world. It’s like parallel history. [Humans] have harnessed all this alien technology. We don’t know how to duplicate it because it’s organically-grown technology, but we know how to take an anti-gravity device and put it in a human airplane…”

6.25 Will Smith 'INDEPENDENCE DAY 2' Update:

Last week Twentieth Century Fox officially announced a release date for Roland Emmerich's upcoming sequel to his 1996 blockbuster hit 'INDEPENDENCE DAY', The aliens are set to return to Earth for another show down with humans July 3rd, 2015.. At the time Bill Pullman was the only cast member known to be returning and mega-star Will Smith was not being asked back.. Even though at one time Emmerich once said a sequel wouldn't happen unless Smith was on board..

A couple of days ago - while promoting his upcoming flick 'WHITE HOUSE DOWN;, director Roland Emmerich said Will Smith won't be returning in the sequel, stating...

"Will Smith can not come back because he's too expensive, but he'd also be too much of a marquee name. It would be too much."

Hmmm ok I get too expensive, but to marquee? I would think a big name star can do nothing but help your big budget alien invasion flick.. But then again, Smith would probably want his son cast in the film as well.. And we all know, how well that went..

What is known about the plot: The story will take place 20 years after the events of the first film - "The humans knew that one day the aliens would come back… And they know that the only way you can really travel in space is through wormholes. So for the aliens, it could take two or three weeks, but for us that’s 20 or 25 years…. It’s a changed world. It’s like parallel history. [Humans] have harnessed all this alien technology.

6.24 'Mandy Lane' Has Her Day:

Many years ago the first details of a new film tittled 'All The Boys Love Mandy Lane', made its way online.. The film sounded very awesome! A US release date seem just around the corner.. And than nothing...

Seven years later, that's right seven years later - the unthinkable happened.. Back in March  - it was announced that 'All The Boys Love Mandy Lane', would finally have its day in north America..

Unfortunately an actual release date was not tagged with the announcement.. Today the flick has its release date!

'All The Boys Love Mandy Lane' will premiere on VOD September 6th with a limited theatrical run to follow on October 11th.

Press Release: RADiUS-TWC is proud to announce that it has acquired U.S. rights to ALL THE BOYS LOVE MANDY LANE, the long anticipated feature directorial debut from director Jonathan Levine (WARM BODIES, 50/50) that has been rescued by the Weinstein Company’s boutique label.

Starring Amber Heard (Drive Angry, Machete Kills) and Anson Mount ("Hell on Wheels"), ALL THE BOYS LOVE MANDY is about a group of high schoolers who invite Mandy Lane, “a good girl” who becomes the object of everyone’s affection after returning from summer break, to a weekend party on a secluded ranch. While the festivities rage on, the number of revelers begins to mysteriously drop one at a time.

ALL THE BOYS LOVE MANDY LANE will be released in late summer – seven years after its Toronto Film Festival Midnight premiere.

RADiUS Co-President Tom Quinn says: “I've been chasing this film since I first saw it in Toronto. [Executive producer] Keith Calder and I have kept in touch over the years, and he's finally been able to wrangle the film from a deal at Senator. Originally, Harvey and Bob beat us to it in Toronto, and now we get to work together to finally bring MANDY LANE to U.S. audiences. This is one of the few horror films that has remained relevant and in the zeitgeist for years - - no easy feat - - and it still surpasses so much of what is being produced today.”

According to Harvey and Bob Weinstein, “We’ve always loved MANDY LANE and are thrilled that RADiUS shares our passion for the film and will get in front of the widest possible audience.”

Levine goes on to say: “I am thrilled that MANDY LANE has been rescued and is back where it belongs with Harvey and Bob. Hard to believe it's been seven years, but then again I’ve always perceived myself as a misunderstood artist who was light years ahead of his time, so I am thrilled the world has finally caught up. Seriously, I am incredibly proud of the film and of the hard work that my cast and collaborators put into it, and I am so happy the world will finally get a chance to see it.”

“It's finally time for me to come clean… During the production of MANDY LANE, I broke a mirror and doomed the film to seven years of bad luck. Thankfully, the team at RADiUS-TWC has shown up to rescue our film and clear my guilty conscience. I'm ecstatic that our first film with RADiUS-TWC is also the first film we produced, and I'm looking forward to working with Harvey, Bob, Jason, and Tom on the release,” echoes Calder..




Plot: Mandy Lane. Beautiful. Untouched. High school royalty waiting to be crowned. Since the dawn of Junior year, men have tried to possess her. Some have even died in reckless pursuit of this 16-year-old Texas angel. Chloe and Red invite Mandy out to Red's family ranch for the weekend. Mandy sees it as an excellent opportunity to cement her new friendships. The boys see it as an opportunity to finally get with Mandy Lane. Driving across the Texas landscape, the kids begin to gently chip away at the wall that surrounds her. Joints are smoked. A keg is stolen off a beer truck. Pills are crushed to fine powder and inhaled. Mandy observes it all with the gentle interest of a foreign tourist. And they love her for it. At the ranch, all the boys start to make their move--each one hoping to be the first to attain the unattainable Mandy Lane. However, as night falls and the booze, drugs, and hormones take over, things are said and advances made which can never be reversed. Suddenly, sweet Mandy finds herself pit in a brutal struggle for survival against someone whose interest she has rejected. Forget reading, writing and arithmetic; in high school, learning to be yourself and not succumbing to peer pressure is the ultimate test. And this is one exam that Mandy is determined not to fail...

6.23 'T5' Update:


I'm going to put this next bit of news into my - I will believe it, when I see it.. File: According to the Examiner, one script for Terminator 5 may be a prequel set in the 1940s or 1950s.. Arnold Schwarzenegger would play a heroic human (not a Terminator), potentially someone in or close to the Connor family...

Schwarzenegger's character would show remarkable ability in protecting the family of Sarah Connor, with antiquated weaponry by today's standards ultimately inspired the machines to develop a terminator in his likeness that was eventually sent to 1984 when Sarah Connor was first targeted for termination.

Rumor has it that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson would be the new Terminator, sent back to take on a very human Schwarzenegger..

At this time there is still no Director attach to the film - Patrick Lussier (Drive Angry, My Bloody Valentine 3D) & Laeta Kalogridis (Avatar, Shutter Island) are penning the script...

6.23 Arnold Schwarzenegger Joins Zombie Project 'Maggie':


Arnold Schwarzenegger has signed to star and produce the zombie thriller 'MAGGIE', according to Variety:

As previously reported, "Maggie" is about a 16-year old girl from a town in middle America becoming infected with a zombie virus." Much the way that Danny Boyle changed the lumbering zombie stereotype by speeding up the undead in 28 Days Later, Maggie changes the lightning quick infection period evident in most zombie films, where victims become zombified within minutes. It will take six months for Maggie to turn, and the film tracks the transformation as she stays with her family..

Chloe Moretz had been in talks at one time to portray the title character, but she was forced to bow out, due to scheduling issues. Henry Hobson will direct - Maggie will mark his theatrical debut..
