The Human Centipede 3 Recruits Dark Knight Actor Eric Roberts
30 May 2013 | The Daily BLAM! | See recent The Daily BLAM! news »
The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence) is the third and final film in director Tom Six' horror franchise about creating a vile digestive chain of human beings sewn together in horrific fashion. The movie stars Dieter Laser, Laurence Harvey, Tommy "Tiny" Lister, Robert Lasardo, Bree Olson and Eric Roberts. Eric Roberts is an Academy Award nominated actor so his presence certainly adds some dramatic flair to Tom Six' indie horror opus. The Human Centipede 3 promises to be the boldest experiment yet as it involves 500 prison inmates making up the latest chain. The first film featured three while the second ramped that number up to 12. Although it's not confirmed as to who Roberts will portray in the film, IMDb lists him as 'Governor'. Director and writer Tom Six will be playing 'himself' in »

The Human Centipede 3 to Begin Filming on Friday
22 May 2013 3:29 AM, PDT | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »
About a year ago, director Tom Six revealed that he was forced to delay production of "The Human Centipede 3" because Dieter Laser, who played the villainous Dr Heiter in the first film, was not willing to return until major script changes were made. Six filed a lawsuit against Laser, but the actor was not giving in to threats. As a result, Six reached out to Udo Kier (Blade) to replace him. Soon after, everything was worked out with Laser, who will return for the third film, along with Laurence Harvey, who played the villain in the second installment. But the two actors won't reprise their roles. Instead, they will play all-new villains in a storyline that Six says "no one will expect." "The Human Centipede 3" will contain a centipede made from 500 people and will feature a "big American celebrity." Shooting was expected to begin in May. And now comes word »

Exclusive: 'The Profane Exhibit' Hires Two New Gentlemen
1 May 2013 4:30 PM, PDT | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
As a fan of extreme horror - both in tone and gross-outs - I have been keeping a close eye on The Profane Exhibit. The anthology of extreme horror will include segments directed by a collection of internationally renown filmmakers like Sergio Stivaletti (Dellamorte Dellamore), Coffin Joe (At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul), Yoshihiro Nishimura (Tokyo Gore Police), and Ruggero Deodato (Cannibal Holocaust) who returns to horror after over twenty years.
Each segment will be introduced by a different person, known collectively as the Gentlemen (regardless of gender), storytellers from important moments in horror history. Previously announced Gentlemen include Bai Ling (The Crow, Dumplings) and Tony Todd (Candyman). Joining that list are Laurence Harvey and Christina Lindberg.

Raquel Welch helps Ringo Starr find the magic in The Magic Christian.
Directed by Joseph McGrath, the 1969 cult comedy film The Magic Christian starring Peter Sellers (The Pink Panther) and Ringo Starr comes from the pen of the brilliant Terry Southern (Dr. Strangelove, Barbarella), based on his 1959 comic novel of the same name.
In the movie, Sir Guy Grand (Sellers), the richest man in the world, whimsically adopts a young homeless man (Starr) who he happens to meet by chance during a stroll in the park. Together they set off on a series of inspired escapades that comically attack the snobbery and hypocrisy of modern society. Moving from one misadventure to another, they have encounters with characters portrayed by such noteworthy performers as Richard Attenborough (The Great Escape), Laurence Harvey (Summer and Smoke), Raquel Welch (Hannie Caulder), Christopher Lee »

Best Movie Ever?: "Cabaret"
31 January 2013 11:31 AM, PST | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »
Thank God we have depressing musicals. There aren't many of them and they're not all classic, but sometimes a musical can transcend schlockiness (nice try, Les Miz!) and resonate with grimy, gleeful desperation. And not in a Burlesque way. Forty years after its original release, Cabaret remains the most warped funhouse in musical cinema. And in case this Teutonic freakshow isn't dirty enough on DVD, you can finally buy it February 5 on Blu-ray. Liza Minnelli's planet-sized pupils in alarming Technicolor! Joel Grey's psycho smile worming into your living room! Bob Fosse's carnal choreography jutting into your face! It's alive and macabre and lovable. To nutty smut, I say, "Wilkommen."
As you might know, Cabaret is based on Christopher Isherwood's short novel Goodbye to Berlin and John van Druten's play adaptation I Am A Camera, both of which detail the exploits of a young cabaret performer »

Director Ted Kotcheff Talks Wake in Fright, fully-restored and on Blu-ray now!
Alongside Mad Max and Walkabout, Wake in Fright is widely acknowledged as one of the seminal films in the development of modern Australian cinema. Directed by Ted Kotcheff and starring Donald Pleasence, this thriller tells the nightmarish story of a schoolteacher's (Gary Bond) descent into personal demoralization at the hands of drunken, deranged derelicts while stranded in a small town in outback Australia. Believed to be lost for decades and virtually unseen in America until now, Wake in Fright returns fully-restored in stunning HD in what the New York Observer says "may be the greatest Australian film ever made."
Wake in Fright is now available on Blu-ray and DVD. To celebrate this home release, we caught up with director Ted Kotcheff to chat about the film's revival and its near destruction. Ted is a luminary in the field of action cinema, »

American Mary’s Soska Sisters & Katharine Isabelle Go Under The Knife With Thn
18 January 2013 8:31 AM, PST | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
In terms of horror, 2012 was a woeful year, particularly within the mainstream, with only the likes of Cabin In The Woods and Sinister being genuinely effective in releasing the fear (and fun) from the genre. However, with festivals such as London’s FrightFest and Manchester’s GrimmFest giving fans the chance to view many impressive upcoming efforts, one that stood out from most was Jen and Sylvia Soska’s American Mary (read our review Here), the follow-up to their exploitation effort, Dead Hooker In A Trunk.
The film sees Ginger Snaps actress, Katharine Isabelle, give a memorable performance as Mary Mason, a young medical student pushed to the limit when keeping up with the demands of her dream profession. She chooses a path involving some unique individuals, and things take a turn for the worse when a horrific altercation spirals into tormented territory.

The Human Centipede III Gets 500 Person Centipede; Dieter Laser to Return
7 January 2013 2:59 PM, PST | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
Back in March, we reported that The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence) will feature both Dieter Laser, the star of The Human Centipede (First Sequence), and The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence)'s Laurence R. Harvey. Today, we have confirmation that Dieter Laser is in fact starring in the franchise finale, although he will not play the nefarious Dr. Heiter.
The actor actually threatened to sue writer-director Tom Six for breach of contract, after he left The Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) just seven weeks before shooting began. Dieter Laser and Tom Six have settled their differences out of court, paving the way for the actor to return in The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence). According to producer Ilona Six, Dieter Laser will in fact be teaming up with Laurence R. Harvey as a villainous duo, "with a storyline no one will expect."
Ilona Six also announced that, "a big »
