Exclusive: R.W. Goodwin on Alien Trespass

26 March 2009 | From shocktillyoudrop.com | See recent shocktillyoudrop news

The resurgence of interest in alien invasion and monster movies of the '50s and '60s has reached a feverish pitch in recent years, from the remakes of War of the Worlds and The Day the Earth Stood Still to DreamWorks Animation's latest movie Monsters vs. Aliens , which pays homage to all the greats. It was only time before someone decided to go back in time and recapture the look and feel of the original movies and the man for that job was R.W. Goodwin, long-time director of Chris Carter's "The X-Files", who teamed with writers James Swift and Steven Fisher to create Alien Trespass , a bonafide '50s alien invasion movie that goes as far as humanly possible to recreate all the quirks and nuances that made some of those old movies as scary as they were inadvertently...

Hot and Not - The Winners and The Losers from 2008

5 March 2009 3:02 PM, PST | From JustPressPlay.net | See recent JustPressPlay news

The Dark Knight aside, 2008 would have to go down as a pretty underwhelming year in the grand scheme of things. A lot of promise, hype and pedigree culminated in an end product that was more often than not, well, kinda crap really. But it wasn’t all bad and there were some clear winners last year with some real breakout performances delivered along with some more established players cementing their status as genuine heavy hitters. 2008 also produced its fair share of monumental, cataclysmic screen bombs that might not necessarily sink careers, but have certainly sunk a few franchises. So here is a brief summary of who made out last year and who will likely spend 2009 wandering the wastelands of career wilderness.

What’s Hot?

Throughout his illustrious career, legendary Lance Henriksen has played everything from an android to a ruthless vampire leader to a mourning father who turns to the supernatural for revenge to an ex-fbi agent who becomes a serial killer profiler with a secret group working against the prophecies of an impending apocalypse.

In the recent Sony Home Pictures release of Screamers: The Hunting (review), Henriksen plays Orsow, the reclusive scientist responsible for creating the screamer androids who annihilated the human race in the original Screamers film in 1995. Henriksen was a huge fan of the original film so it felt like a perfect fit to step into the sequel.

During a recent chat the living legend, Henriksen discussed his view of the character, “I saw the character of Orsow as this lonely guy who was so isolated because of his work. Because of that isolation, he went a bit crazy and lost control over his work.
