The Top Five Monster Sex Scenes [Nsfw]
15 May 2013 3:00 PM, PDT | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
One of the reasons why we love horror films is the dangerous sex appeal – especially in slasher films from the 80s. Although most teenagers in these slasher films suffer brutal deaths after they engage in such sexy behaviors, there is something still strangely and erotically appealing about sex in these horror films. But what about the monster sex scenes? Do they have the same effect on spectators? Are monster scenes sexy? Maybe we’re getting too far ahead of ourselves - what qualifies as a monster sex scene? For the purposes of this list, I am only examining non-human sex – although one human might be involved in the act, at least one monster must be present: whether it be a re-animated head without a body, a creature with several legs, an alien, a ghoulie; basically anything that isn’t human and has undergone some process of “evil-i-zation” qualifies as a »

Joss Whedon Discusses His Crappy Alien: Resurrection Film
19 April 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
I remember getting my hands on Joss Whedon's script for Alien: Resurrection back in the mid 90's and I thought it was great! I was so excited for the movie that was going to come out, then I saw it, and it sucked ass. They ended up changing a lot of stuff, but Whedon's script was still good. He ended up getting a story credit on the film to which he says, "There is always going to be a shitty Alien movie out there. A shitty Alien movie with my name on it."
In a recent interview with Total Film Magazine the Avengers director talked about Prometheus and reflects on his own contribution the franchise saying,
Yes, I did see Pro-meaningless," he joked. "In all seriousness, Alien: Resurrection was, I thought, the lowest I could ever feel. And then they cancelled Firefly. 'Yup, there you go. That's me feeling even lower. »

Tracing Rob Zombie's Decade Spent Doing the Devil's Work: 'Halloween II'
18 April 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
Today we're going to explore Rob Zombie's continuation of his Halloween storyline in Halloween II (2009). Surprisingly, this was a film he was initially uninterested in making, but found himself inexorably drawn to in the interests of proprietorial authorship of the characters he felt he created. In my opinion, it's his strongest film, both visually and thematically. Diverging from the bulk of genre fare, it pointedly addresses the impact violence has in all its heart wrenching agony. Halloween II H2 is a visually astonishing film. It's also unique in its genre for how it focuses on the lasting effects of violence, both on those it's directly perpetrated against and in the community they're a part of. How did you balance the style with the substance? Rob Zombie (Rz): That was a tricky one, I didn't want to make Halloween II for a long time. I actually passed on making Halloween II. »

Joss Whedon: 'Firefly axe, Alien: Resurrection were my lowest points'
18 April 2013 8:45 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »
Joss Whedon has discussed his work on Alien: Resurrection.
The Avengers director has a writing credit on the poorly-received Alien franchise film.
"In all seriousness, Alien: Resurrection was, I thought, the lowest I could ever feel," he told Total Film magazine.
"And then they cancelled Firefly. 'Yup, there you go. That's me feeling even lower.'
"Let me quote King Lear - 'The worst is not, so long as we can say, "This is the worst".'"
He complained about the miscasting of Brad Dourif and Je Freeman in the two characters he wrote for the Jean-Pierre Jeunet-directed 1997 movie.
"You don't ever get over it," he added. "When you are making a movie you are making something that is going to last forever, especially now with the internet.
"So there is always going to be a s**tty Alien movie out there. A s**tty Alien movie with my name on it. »
A Walken Legend: Christopher’s Most Memorable Performances
14 April 2013 2:30 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
He’s one of cinemas most intense performers and one of my all-time favourite movie icons, but Oscar-winner Christopher Walken has more in his locker than a menacing thousand-yard stare and gravity-defying hair-do. This week sees the UK DVD and Blu-ray release of Martin McDonagh’s brilliant black comedy, Seven Psychopaths, in which Walken steals the show from under the nose of Colin Farrell, Sam Rockwell and Woody Harrelson, as a loveable dog-napping petty crook, devoted pal and husband.
Over his 60 year career, which currently features over 12o credits, he’s featured in superhero blockbuster Batman Returns, gothic horror Sleepy Hollow; taken on suave British super spy 007 in A View To A Kill; chased rodents and marsupials in family favourites, Mousehunt and Kangaroo Jack, and tripped the light fantastic in Fatboy Slim’s memorable music video for Weapon Of Choice. Now Thn has picked out some of our favourite, and »

"Curse of Chuckie" Is "Child's Play"
11 April 2013 7:19 PM, PDT | SneakPeek | See recent SneakPeek news »
The direct-to-dvd, sixth installment of the "Child's Play" horror franchise, "Curse of Chucky", lensed in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, is now in post-production.
"Since his introduction to audiences in 'Child's Play' almost a quarter-century ago, Chucky has haunted the nightmares of a generation of moviegoers," said Glenn Ross, General Manager and Executive Vice President, Universal 1440 Entertainment. "Returning to his roots in one of the most provocative horror franchises, this new sequel will shock longtime fans of the series and newcomers alike."
Directed by Don Mancini, "Curse of Chucky" stars Fiona Dourif (The Master, "True Blood," "Deadwood"), A Martinez ("Longmire," "General Hospital"), Danielle Bisutti (Get Smart, "CSI: Miami") and Brennan Elliott (Flight 93, Double Jeopardy). Brad Dourif ("The Lord of the Rings," Dune) returns to provide the voice of 'Chucky', the pint-sized doll possessed by the spirit of killer 'Charles Lee Ray'.
The original "Child's Play", released in 1988, was directed by Tom Holland, »

Mississippi Burning: a civil rights story of good intentions and suspect politics
10 April 2013 6:51 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
Willem Dafoe and Gene Hackman star as FBI agents who crack a 1964 conspiracy of racist murderers – without any help from the activists who played such a vital role at this time
Mississippi Burning (1988)
Director: Alan Parker
Entertainment grade: B
History grade: D–
On 21 June 1964, one black and two white civil rights activists disappeared near Philadelphia, Mississippi. The FBI codenamed the case Miburn – short for Mississippi Burning.
Crime
The three activists – in real life, James Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner, though they are not named in the film – are driving, tailed by several cars. When they stop, they are murdered and their bodies hidden by a mob of white men connected to the Ku Klux Klan. Later, the FBI turn up, in the fictionalised forms of spiky white liberal intellectual Agent Ward (Willem Dafoe) and rough-around-the-edges white liberal anti-intellectual Agent Anderson (Gene Hackman). Viewers may erroneously conclude that the FBI »

Unforgettable Horror Villain Deaths
29 March 2013 2:00 PM, PDT | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
It seemed to be some sort of rule of thumb with the more iconic of horror baddies – the bigger you are then the harder and much more spectacularly you fall, usually amidst a climatic showcase of visual effects that have stretched the already limited budget of the film to near breaking point. I guess that's part of their enduring appeal. I mean, would Dracula really have been as unforgettable as he is if he was easily snuffed out by a simple baseball bat to the dome? Could you imagine watching a version of King Kong where the ape was simply put down like Old Yeller instead of being shot down from the top of the Empire State building? Some of these deaths have become as iconic as the villain themselves, complimenting the closing of the film with some final reel fireworks. Even a nameless henchman has a fighting chance for »

Ranking David Lynch’s Films
20 March 2013 4:30 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
How many filmmakers can you think of that have their own verb? “Lynchian” is a part of even the most casual cinephile, though it’s often used erroneously. All too often, anything a little out of the ordinary, with a vague sense of the uncanny, earns the term. Looking back at the man’s filmography, however, it’s clear that there’s much more to Lynch’s work than mere eccentricity, especially given that he’s made films that don’t easily fit into common ideas about what it is for a film or a work of art to even be “Lynchian.” Beyond that, Lynch himself is such a singular presence beyond his films – as a thinker, a writer, and even as a musician – that attempts to Xerox his work are doubly pointless. As it’s David Lynch month here at the site, we decided to poll our writers on their favorite Lynch movies, »

Another new trailer for the latest horror comedy coming our way, Gingerclown 3D, is home to a couple of new bits of never before seen footage, though after you watch it that may not necessarily apply anymore. Funny how things work sometimes.
Tim Curry (Rocky Horror Picture Show) voices "Gingerclown," while Brad Dourif (Child’s Play) voices "Worm Creature," Lance Henriksen (Aliens) as "Braineater," Michael Winslow (Police Academy) as "Stomachcrumble," and Sean Young (Blade Runner) voices the leggy "Nelly the Spiderwoman." Balázs Hatvani directs.
Synopsis:
1983: A group of high school students are having a great time near Hollywood Hills at the weekend when they bump into the Loser from their school, Sam, who’s just on his way home. Sam would do anything in order to get Jenny’s attention, one of prettiest girls in school. Unfortunately she’s also the girlfriend of the school’s bully, Biff, the quarterback of the football team. »

Horror Killers We'd Like to See Face Off
7 March 2013 10:00 AM, PST | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
While films that pit notorious horror icons together to ‘face off’ are far from classic cinema, there is no denying that they can be fun if taken as the mindless entertainment they are intended to be. When Freddy vs. Jason was released, it surpassed expectations by grossing over $80 million domestically. The film almost spawned a sequel, Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash. The follow up never came to fruition, since Sam Raimi wanted to maintain the rights to the Evil Dead franchise. A year later, we saw another epic pairing with Avp: Alien vs. Predator, which also grossed an estimated $80+ million. Then, in 2007, we saw Avpr: Alien vs. Predator: Requiem hit the market. And, of course, who could forget the Oscar contender (sarcasm) that was Puppet Master vs. Demonic Toys.
There are plenty of hoops to jump through in order for studios to bring icons from different franchises together to duke it out. »

100 Greatest Movie Villains Of All Time
23 February 2013 9:44 AM, PST | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Everybody loves a good villain, just like the girls all love the bad boy. They play by no one’s rules but their own and their charismatic rogue charm is always irresistible.
A villain can come in many forms: tragic, like Travis Bickle, the psychopath like Hannibal Lecter, the criminal where villainy is merely business like Michael Corleone and then there is the guy that is evil to the core like Alex DeLarge. Villains come in all shapes and sizes, some aren’t even human, some aren’t even seen on screen but that does not deflate their presence.
The criteria for a villain is rather simple: things like murder, rape, plans to take over the world, manipulation, organised crime and general thuggery are all bad things and even if the character is sympathetic or belives they are righteous, that does not stop them from being a villain.

Essential Viewing for fans of ‘The Last Exorcism’
22 February 2013 6:13 PM, PST | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Ever since the release of the Academy Award nominated The Exorcist, back in 1973, Hollywood has benefited quite a bit from movies about exorcism, and the box office numbers show no signs of recession. With the release of The Last Exorcism 2, I decided to spotlight three films that are criminally overlooked, and that I think fans would definitely enjoy.

Here Comes the Devil
Directed Adrián García Bogliano
Screenplay by Adrián García Bogliano
2012, Mexico
From Argentinian filmmaker Adrián García Bogliano, Here Comes the Devil, is a coming of age tale of demonic possession, sexual awakening and suspected child abuse. Staying clear of the typical traps of exploitation, Bogliano takes a low-key, less graphic approach to the unearthly proceedings. This isn’t your standard possession film. That’s not to say there aren’t displays of the supernatural, but those hoping for frightening exorcisms may be disappointed (although you will get scenes of levitation, »
