'The Killer Inside Me' Unleashes Extended Promo Trailer

12 hours ago | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »

An extended look at "The Killer Inside Me" has come out in the form of a promo trailer. Almost six minutes in running time, the sneak peek unravels what this drama thriller is all about and gives out a look at Casey Affleck, Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson in characters. Some footage in the trailer are quite Nsfw.

In the movie set in the 1950s, Affleck stars as Lou Ford, a West Texas deputy sheriff who spirals downward. Starting as a bored small-town cop, he slowly turns into a ruthless, sociopathic murderer trying to cement his innocence when the evidence looks suspicious. Alba and Hudson, in the meantime, portray a prostitute and Lou's girlfriend respectively.

"The Killer Inside Me" is based on Jim Thompson's 1952 novel which is described as "one of the most blistering and uncompromising crime novels ever written." Michael Winterbottom, the director of "A Mighty Heart", takes on the helming part, »

A Revealing 6-Minute Promo Trailer for The Killer Inside Me

13 hours ago | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »

Not entirely sure where this 6-minute promo trailer for Michael Winterbottom’s “The Killer Inside Me” came from, but it sure spoils a lot of the movie, which is why I’m tagging this as a Spoiler Post. You have been warned. The film stars Casey Affleck as a small town Texas lawman who decides to shack up with a prostitute played by Jessica Alba, while keeping Kate Hudson on the side. Nice gig if you can get it. Meanwhile, our soft-spoken lawman starts to slowly slip down the homicidal slope, and it’s up to Simon Baker to stop him. Again, the video reveals quite a bit, so steer clear unless you absolutely need to watch it. »

Weird Trailer for Casey Affleck's 'Killer Inside Me'

14 hours ago | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »

I read The Killer Inside Me about 25 years ago, and in general I'm an admirer of the work of pulp novelist Jim Thompson. His most recognized works are probably that title, The Killing (later turned into an early Kubrick film), The Getaway, and The Grifters, released as a film over 10 years after his death. I heard about him while growing up in Oklahoma, because that's where he was from.

The Killer Inside Me is a whale of a book. I wouldn't say it's a must-read, but it's tougher than a bus station corndog. It's been turned into a movie before, and a new version was filmed this summer mostly in Oklahoma, even though Thomspson's book is set in Texas. Casey Affleck plays the sociopathic lawman Lou Ford, and you'll see what I mean when you watch this promo trailer.

According to The Playlist, this is very likely what's being used »

Link Party: Fergie Tells Cosmo Josh Duhamel Is Awesome

17 hours ago | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

• Sorta bad timing for Cosmopolitan's December cover featuring Fergie talking about how great Josh Duhamel is. She says he loved when she put on weight and he had "extra meat to grab." • Rihanna picked a good day to speak out about domestic violence. Just today, this trailer featuring Casey Affleck beating Jessica Alba popped up and then Marilyn Manson released a music video of him attacking an Evan Rachel Wood look-a-like. Both are Nsfw and disgusting. • Continuing on with what is apparently Domestic Abuse Awareness Day, Chris Brown is confused why some people "basically want me in jail." • Sarah Jessica Parker tells Elle, "I love the... »

Extended Promo Trailer for The Killer Inside Me

17 hours ago | www.canmag.com | See recent CanMag news »

Got to hand it to Casey Affleck. The guy is one of those true actors that can tackle just about everything. After disturbing us in The Assassination of Jesse James, he is back again with another dark drama, The Killer Inside Me. But this time he gets to bang Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson. Lucky guy!

Wait, wait, he kills one of them? Er, not so lucky.

The Killer Inside Me Promo Trailer

The Killer Inside Me. The film has Affleck playing (if you can believe it) Lou Ford -- a relative of Robert Ford? -- a West Texas deputy who's not only a sexual beast, but a psychotic killer. Yikes! »

Promo Trailer for Winterbottom's 'The Killer Inside Me'

20 hours ago | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

Thanks to The Playlist we have been made aware of a promotional trailer for Michael Winterbottom's The Killer Inside Me based on the Jim Thompson novel and starring Casey Affleck, Simon Baker, Kate Hudson, Jessica Alba, Elias Koteas, Bill Pullman and Ned Beatty.

Thompson, as many of you may already know co-wrote Stanley Kubrick's killer heist flick The Killing, which was part of my list of top ten heist films back in early 2008. This also isn't the first time "The Killer Inside Me" has been adapted for a feature film as Burt Kennedy directed a version in 1976 starring Stacy Keach and Susan Tyrrell.

The story centers on a West Texas sheriff (Affleck) and his downward spiral from a boring small-town cop into a ruthless, sociopathic murderer. The cast also includes Jessica Alba as a prostitute and Kate Hudson as the sheriff's schoolteacher girlfriend. Baker plays a county attorney »

The Killer Inside Me Sales Trailer: Michael Winterbottom Does Sex and Violence and Desperation

20 hours ago | Slash Film | See recent Slash Film news »

I've really been looking forward to footage from Michael Winterbottom's adaptation of the Jim Thompson novel The Killer Inside Me. I'm a massive Thompson fan, and adaptations of his novels have about a .500 average. (I'm the guy that doesn't like The Grifters much; I infinitely prefer a movie like Tavernier's Coup de Torchon.) The cast here seems to be on the money -- Casey Affleck as the duplicitous small-town sheriff deputy Lou Ford, Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson as the women in his life, and supporting work from Ned Beatty, Bill Pullman and Elias Koteas. Now there's a rough long-form sales trailer that makes the concoction look fairly potent. See it after the jump. Give a big hand to The Playlist for digging up this trailer. Now, if you don't know the story you might not want to watch this one. It's about five minutes long and gives away »

Extended, Spoiler-ific Trailer for The Killer Inside Me Starring Casey Affleck

20 hours ago | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

In 2007, Casey Affleck was a force to be reckoned with as he landed a one-two punch with “Gone Baby Gone” and “The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford,” the latter of which earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor.  Affleck makes his return next summer in Michael Winterbottom’s “The Killer Inside Me,” based off Jim Thompson’s novel.  The story follows a bored, small-town cop who decides to liven up his life with a little sociopathy and murder followed by the fun of covering up his tracks.

The trailer from the American Film Market has popped up online and at nearly six-minutes long, it gives away most of the film so if you’re looking to go in cold, do not watch it.  But I’ll tell you up front that Affleck looks as charming and devious as ever.  Jessica Alba, Kate Hudson, Simon Baker, »

New Poster of Jessica Alba in Machete

5 November 2009 3:11 AM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

ComingSoon.net have spotted a new poster (click to enlarge) for Robert Rodriguez’ new movie, Machete which stars Jessica Alba.

Synopsis from ComingSoon:

Machete” is based on the “fake” trailer in Rodriguez’s 2007 Grindhouse. The feature version of the trailer finds Machete (Danny Trejo) a renegade former Mexican Federale, roaming the streets of Texas after a shakedown from drug lord Torrez (Steven Seagal). Reluctantly, Machete takes an offer from spin doctor Benz (Jeff Fahey) to assassinate McLaughlin (Robert De Niro) a corrupt Senator. Double crossed and on the run Machete braves the odds with the help of Luz (Michelle Rodriguez), a saucy taco slinger, Padre (Cheech Marin) his “holy” brother, and April (Lindsay Lohan) a socialite with a penchant for guns. All while being tracked by Sartana (Alba), a sexy Ice agent with a special interest in the blade slinger.

More info as we get it.

Jessica Alba Lays Down The Law In The First Machete Poster

5 November 2009 1:21 AM, PST | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

I.m excited about Machete in a way that.s almost impossible to explain to anyone who doesn.t rate Planet Terror as one of their favorite zombie movies. Scratch that, most of you haven.t even seen Planet Terror, judging from the scant handful of people who showed up for the greatness of Grindhouse. I have a feeling that Robert Rodriguez.s Machete will fare better. It doesn.t hurt that it stars, among others, Jessica Alba. In fact Alba, as Sartana, is the first Machete character to get a real teaser poster. You.d think the first one would have been of Machete, but once you look at tight-jeans, white tank top Alba ready to lay down the law, you.ll be glad she went first.

Jessica Alba “Machete” Poster

5 November 2009 1:13 AM, PST | Filmofilia | See recent Filmofilia news »

A new poster for Ethan Maniquis and Robert Rodriguez’s “Machete” is currently on display at the American Film Market (Afm), and it features a look at Jessica Alba as Sartana. Check it out below.

Machete” is based on the “fake” trailer in Rodriguez’s 2007 Grindhouse. The highly skilled Federale Machete (Danny Trejo) is hired by some unsavory types to assassinate a senator. But just as he’s about to take the shot, he notices someone aiming at him and realizes he’s been set up. He barely survives the sniper’s bullet, and is soon out for revenge on his former employers, with the reluctant assistance of his old friend Cheech Marin, who has become a priest and taken a vow of nonviolence. If you hire him to take out the bad guys, make sure the bad guys aren’t you!

The film also stars Steven Seagal (Torrez), Jeff Fahey »

The first image of Jessica Alba playing Sartana in Robert Rodriguez' Machete has arrived on the web. The lads over at Coming Soon tracked down the image at the American Film Market and snapped a pic. Rodriguez has just shot the film, adapted from his spoof trailer in Grindhouse that sees Danny Trejo as a renegade former Mexican Federale on the run after he's double-crossed and framed by a crooked politician. Alba's character is an Ice (Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, in case you wondered) who has made it her mission to track him...

Jessica Alba is listed among the actors tapped to star in Robert Rodriguez's "Machete", and the first look at her in character as Sartana has made its rounds. Brought into attention by Coming Soon, the first look came in the form of a capture of the film's character poster which is being displayed at the American Film Market.

She will be starring opposite Danny Trejo who takes on the role of Machete in the movie which cast ensemble also consists of Robert De Niro, Michelle Rodriguez, Steven Seagal and Lindsay Lohan.

"Machete" centers its story around a renegade former Mexican Federale named Machete. Roaming the streets of Texas after a shakedown from drug lord Torrez, he reluctantly takes an offer from spin doctor Benz to assassinate corrupt Senator McLaughlin. »

First Look: Jessica Alba in ‘Machete’

4 November 2009 5:34 PM, PST | newsinfilm.com | See recent newsinfilm news »

The American Film Market is going on this week in Santa Monica and a few sites are squeezing every morsel of news from the event.  Two sites nabbed a picture of a Machete one sheet featuring Jessica Alba as “Sartana.”  It just looks like Alba with a gun in her hand, but you won’t hear any complaining from me.

The rest of the posters were locked away, but the wild cast also includes Danny Trejo, Michelle Rodriguez, Robert De Niro, Lindsay Lohan, Cheech Marin, Steven Seagal, Don Johnson, and Rose McGowanRobert Rodriguez shot the expanded Grindhouse trailer in August here in Austin, TX.  It’s set for distribution April 16, 2010 by Sony Pictures.

This image comes from ComingSoon.net, but it should be noted Bloody-Disgusting snapped their own version as well:
