Crawlspace Review. Decent Horror Flick

Crawlspace  Review By: MattInRC The low-budget Crawlspace doesn't look like it, delivering a decent horror flick experience. At SJF, we've reviewed plenty of low-budget horror tripe. On the surface, Crawlspace appeared to be yet another of these throw-away flicks; we're inclined to let it sit a moment longer than the others we've merely tossed into the abyss. When a top-secret medical lab in Australia comes under attack from an unknown force, an elite squad of soldiers is tasked with rescuing the science team. What the soldiers do not know is that problem at Pine Gap is not some alien creature but a human experiment gone wrong in the form of Eve ( Amber Clayton ). Having endured a tricky surgery by merging an alien brain with her own, Eve has developed enormous mental powers beyond her own simple telekinesis. Eve awakens frightened and unable to remember who she is, but possessing the charming scars of her recent experience. The strike team sent to deal

THE ICEMAN Trailer #2

Watch the trailer for THE ICEMAN , starring Michael Shannon, Winona Ryder, Ray Liotta, and Chris Evans! In case you haven’t been following the film’s slow-cooked development, no, The Iceman is not the continuing adventures of Val Kilmer’s narky pilot from Top Gun. It is, in fact, the strange-but-true story of mob assassin Richard Kuklinski. Shannon plays Kuklinski, a man who led a strictly separate double life. To his wife Deborah (Winona Ryder), he was a loving, attentive family man and business type who was gainfully employed. But his other existence was something quite different: he specialised in untraceable killings and got his nickname thanks to his habit of freezing his victims post mortem to keep them from the prying detection of the police and forensics investigators. Chris Evans is co-starring as Robert Pronge, who helped teach Kuklinski the ways of the assassin, with Ray Liotta as a mob boss. Ariel Vroman is the director and co-writer who dragged this one to the scre

Anne Hathaway Wants The Taming Of The Shrew

She’s the proud owner of a Golden Globe after this weekend’s ceremony, and seems on track to likely add an Oscar to her collection. But with musicals now crossed off her To Do list, Les Miserables' Anne Hathaway has set her sights on Shakespeare with a new version of The Taming Of The Shrew . According to The Wrap , Shame’s Abi Morgan is writing the fresh take on the Bard’s battle of the sexes, updating the plot to mid-20th century Italy. It would hardly be the first time someone has thought to make Shrew into a new format: it was the basis for the musical Kiss Me Kate, which launched in Broadway in 1951 and ended up a 1967 film starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. Then there’s 1999’s 10 Things I Hate About You, which set the events in high school. Working Title is producing this latest adaptation, and it’s no surprise that the company’s Miserables star would be at the top of the wish list. Hathaway’s schedule is also pretty free at the moment, since she had been

New Carrie Poster. God Won't Help You

It took a while to get a real, official poster for Kimberly Peirce’s remake of Stephen King horror tale Carrie out in the world. That image, of a bloodied Chloe Moretz slotted firmly into the big-face-with-writing poster genre, and the spirit continues with a haggard-looking Julianne Moore as her fundamentalist mother, Margaret White. Featuring just a hint of the red stuff this time (check out her eyes), the picture sees Moore look a lot more terrifying than she usually does. Margaret, of course, is the obsessive, Bible-loving woman who decides her daughter’s newfound telekinetic powers are evil. With J udy Greer, Gabriella Wilde, Portia Doubleday, Alex Russell and Michelle Nolden also in the cast. Please Leave A Comment- Source- Empire
