Regardless of whether you’ve had your fill of vampires or just can’t get enough of those iconic blood-suckers Universal Pictures is planning something special for fans of the undead this Fall. You’ve probably seen Luke Evans in Fast & Furious 6 and/or Immortals but will play the stars in this “origin story” which, we’re paraphrasing, will be the mother, er father, (granddaddy??) of all vampire movies. We’re not going to knock Universal’s last foray into the realm of classic monster movies too much as Van Helsing was fun for what it was. But as Dracula Untold sets to walk a more serious line, and as cool as the gothic imagery is,…

Sweet (Teaser) Trailer…Alejandro Iñárritu’s ‘Birdman’
OK, stop what you’re doing. There’s a new Michael Keaton movie on the horizon….and to those of you skimming the title and body of this post too fast, no, he’s not taking up a new cape and kicking crime’s ass (we wish). But he is however starring in the latest from Alejandro Innaritu. In a premise so crazy it might just work fantastically (again, we hope) Michael Keaton is, in fact playing a has-been actor who played a superhero earlier in his career and now seeks so reclaim his former glory in this dark and slightly trippy looking comedy. [Disclaimer: this is in no way autobiographical] This week we’ve seen…

G-S-T Review…How To Train Your Dragon 2
Four years doesn’t seem like that long ago but DreamWorks Animation has grown by leaps and bounds since their massive 2010 hit and this sequel is an improvement in every sense of the word. How to Train Your Dragon 2 soars past Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders’ film with a second installment that features exquisite animation and an even more exciting and adventurous story – one that colorfully expands on the endearing elements that made the first film such a wild success. In this sequel we get to see Hiccup, Toothless, and the entire village of Berk shown thriving in their dragon-friendly utopia. The Vikings have not only come to…

Sweet Trailer…’The Interview’
It really is impressive seeing the lengths to which Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg will go in order to get a laugh. That said, The Interview has to be the most ambitious (and ballsy) picture of their careers. Even if the story is in jest this is pushing the limits…then again South Park does this (and worse) all the time so they’re not the most offensive “Western capital pigs” out there. But that’s what they do – they push boundaries – and you have to admire them for making comedy out of whatever they deem to be funny. After all these guys, having been raised on ’80s era comedies, are…

Sweet Trailer…’Frontera’
This year writer/director Michael Berry brought his passion project to Dallas for the 44th Annual USA Film Festival. His film, Frontera, is a slow-boil drama about a mistaken murder that revolves around an illegal immigrant looking for a better life here in America. We got to speak to Berry while he was in town (check out our interview here!) and discuss this heavy and layered narrative – one that has a lot more going on under the surface than on top of it. We know how solid and emotionally taut the film is but now that the first trailer dropped we’re excited to see Berry’s film hopefully find a wider…

G-S-T Review…The Fault In Our Stars
Whether on not you’re a fan of John Green’s work, young adult novels, or just appreciate a good story, The Fault in Our Stars is probably the most unexpectedly delightful film you’ll see this season. Based on Green’s immensely popular novel of the same name it’s an account of three kids dealing with cancer and hard life issues at a young age. It’s about kids with the disease but it’s not about the disease. They, despite their condition, are just as normal as you can expect and still full of life and hope in light of their disease. But the story doesn’t paint a happy-go-lucky picture, just an honest one. Stripped of…
