Michael Madsen’s The Bleeding Trailer

21 October 2009 8:11 AM, PDT | HorrorYearbook | See recent HorrorYearbook news »

Michael Madsen takes on Vinnie Jones in the new vampire movie, The Bleeding, on November 10th. The film also stars Dmx, Kat Von D, Michael Matthias (he kind of looks like Vin Diesel) and Armand Assante. Hopefully this won't be as bad as Steven Seagal's Against the Dark When ex-us Army Ranger Shawn Black searches for the brutal killer of his parents, he discovers a terrifying family of vampires led by Cain, The Vampire King. Tipped off by a friendly cop and fortified with blessed weaponry supplied to him by a boozy priest, Black must infiltrate the vampire's lair - a former chemical weapons factory turned night club where he will finally meet the creature that has changed his life forever. »

The Bleeding with an Official Release Date

20 October 2009 9:49 PM, PDT | 28 Days Later Analysis | See recent 28 Days Later Analysis news »

The Bleeding, which comes out next month looks like a B-movie from the past with Vinnie Jones donning the vampire make-up and Michael Madsen the priest outfit. Not likely to make too many theatres in three weeks The Bleeding will nonetheless be released this November 10 with Armand Assante, Dmx, Rachelle Leah and others starring in a vampire apocalypse. Is the film just a paycheck, or something more? It is too hard to answer this question at this point, but the trailer is just passable as the narration fades in and out while the best parts of The Road Warrior are replayed onscreen. But stay tuned for more info' as it is too soon to tell whether The Bleeding is a wolf in sheeps clothing, or a disasterpiece waiting to happen.

Release: November 10, 2009.

Director: Charlie Picerni.

Writer: Lance Lane.

Cast: Vinnie Jones, Michael Madsen, Armand Assante, Dmx, William McNamara, Krista Ayne, »

First Look at the Trailer for The Bleeding

20 October 2009 | shocktillyoudrop.com | See recent shocktillyoudrop news »

Tough guys 'n vampires. We've seen the combo before in cinema, but The Bleeding , from director Charles Picerni, is offering a new concoction of bad-asses with Vinnie Jones, Michael Matthias, Michael Madsen, Dmx and Armand Assante. The testosterone is overwhelming. The Bleeding is officially complete and a screening for us press folk is just around the corner. Today, we've got a look at promo art from Arsenal Pictures (to the left) and a trailer (below). And yes, that's Kat Von D you see vamping it up. Synopsis: When ex-us Army Ranger Shawn Black searches for the brutal killer of his parents, he discovers a terrifying family of vampires led by Cain, The Vampire King. Tipped off by a friendly cop and fortified with blessed weaponry supplied to him by a boozy priest,... »

Vinnie Jones Starts The Bleeding

20 October 2009 2:20 AM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

Vinnie Jones has done a lot of ass kicking in his film career. Usually it's other people who are at the receiving end of his huge boot, but this time it's the vampires who find themselves on the short end of the stick!

The Bleeding directed by stunt man Charlie Picerni and starring Vinnie Jones, Michael Madsen, Dmx, Armand Assante, William McNamara, and Katherine von Drachenberg (aka Kat von D) tells the tale of an ex-Army Ranger searching for the killer of his parents who discovers a family of vampires in a former chemical weapons factory-turned-nightclub.

Sound good? Tell you what ... watch the trailer below, which was originally brought to our attention by Quiet Earth; it looks even better! Dig it!

Trailer and poster for The Bleeding with Vinnie Jones, Michael Madsen, Kat von D

19 October 2009 10:53 AM, PDT | QuietEarth.us | See recent QuietEarth news »

Without even trying, The Bleeding looks like the best Grindhouse homage we've seen since, well Grindhouse. It's so completely and utterly strange in its combination of elements that it looks like its from another time altogether.

The Bleeding is also a film that might be for those of you who think Daybreakers looks a little too slick, but still want to see a gritty Vampire apocalypse in action. Not that The Bleeding expressly ever comes out and says it's about vampires mind you, it's just something I pieced together from this trailer.

Synopsis:

Surrounded by carnage, slaughter, brutal crashes and total mayhem, Shawn Black is in a race to save the world from pure evil.

The director of The Bleeding is stunt man Charlie Picerni, which is why there's an abundance of car stunts in this footage.

The Bleeding stars Vinnie Jones, Michael Madsen, Dmx, Armand Assante, William McNamara and »

Dmx Concert 'Riot' Blown Out Of Proportion, Manager, Police Say

Rapper was 90 minutes late to show in Colorado on Friday, prevented by security from taking stage.

After years of run-ins with the law, Dmx has largely kept his name out of the headlines since his release from jail in May. And while he's scheduled to participate in a mixed-martial arts bout in December, X (born Earl Simmons), got into an unexpected scuffle on Friday night in Colorado Springs when he showed up to a charity show only to be barred from taking the stage.

According to amateur video of the incident, when X and his crew arrived at the Phil Long Expo Center for the show on Friday, they were confronted by venue security, who threatened to arrest the rapper and his entourage if they tried to take the stage. Explaining that the frequently tardy Mc — who arrived after 11 p.m. — was »

Ufc 103 Preview: Rich Franklin And Vitor Belfort In An Entrance Music Showdown

18 September 2009 10:09 AM, PDT | MTV Newsroom | See recent MTV Newsroom news »

This weekend, the Ultimate Fighting Championship will make its way to Dallas for a show headlined by a catchweight match between Rich Franklin and Vitor Belfort. Watching Ufc remains a favorite pastime in the Newsroom (as well as at Hayley Williams' house), and this weekend's card looks like it'll be a satisfying sleeper. Franklin and Belfort are both former champions trying to re-establish themselves as contenders in a crowded field. But no matter what the tale of the tape says, everybody knows the difference between sweet victory and crushing defeat comes down to a single criterion: Who has the better entrance music?

It's worked well for a number of fighters. Brock Lesnar used Mötley Crüe's "Shout at the Devil" as his music in his first fight (which he lost in 90 seconds), switched to Metallica's "Enter Sandman" and hasn't lost since, becoming the heavyweight champion in the process. »

New York — Bigger than an individual, bigger than a group and overshadowing any crew, Def Jam Records celebrated its 25th anniversary Saturday night at the M2 Ultra Lounge.

The historic label's acts such as Juelz Santana, NeYo, Fabolous and singer Adrienne Bailon, as well as celebs such as Claudia Jordan, Zab Judah, Melody Thornton, Malinda Williams, Polow Da Don, Eva Pigford, Ice-t and wife Coco came out for the party.

DJ Cassidy started off the night spinning nothing but the hits from Def Jam's catalog: Onyx's "Slam," LL Cool J's "Jingling Baby," Dmx's "Get at Me Dog," Jay-z's "Can I Get A ..." and others. If you didn't already appreciate Def Jam for its trailblazing history and unprecedented longevity, you had to respect its consistent output of hits and stars. »

Ted Kennedy Notes, Warwick Davis' 'Harry Potter' Casting Switch And Shaq In A Speedo In Today's Twitter-Wood

26 August 2009 3:00 PM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »

Ted Kennedy's passing this morning certainly didn't leave the Twitter-Wood feed untouched. I made my best attempt to summarize the spectrum of reactions today some retweets from Elizabeth Banks and Kevin Nealon.

It was also a massive photo-posting day for some reason. And when it came down to choosing between Shaquille O'Neal in a Speedo and Arnold Schwarzenegger's "Conan" sword, which in now housed at his California office, the hairs of choice were not easily split. Click on down there, and you'll find both of them, along with Warwick Davis' commentary on leaving his role as Filius Flitwick to replace Verne Troyer as Griphook the Goblin in "Harry Potter in the Deathly Hallows." Also, the lovely Emma Roberts talks bikinis. It's all in the Twitter-Wood report for August 26, 2009.

Fif says fans are 'ready' for harder material, like new street album.

New York — The ride to 25th Street from the G-Unit offices outside of Times Square in 50 Cent's SUV wasn't long enough — the G-Unit General needed a little more time to play his record.

Outside of his camp, nobody had heard a lick of material from his street album, War Angel LP (which became available for download Tuesday), and he was eager to preview a few tracks for MTV News. Fif sat in his seat and pressed a button. Up came a huge flat screen from behind his manager Chris Lighty, who was seated facing 50 in the four-passenger SUV.

The screen displayed the Internet, not TV. Fif is big on the Web, if you haven't noticed. He said the traffic on his Web site, ThisIs50.com, has doubled since he started responding »

Dmx Out of Jail, Still Facing Assault Rap

14 May 2009 4:00 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

We're hoping that, wherever he is now, Dmx is turning over a new leaf. The rapper-actor was released from a Phoenix jail Thursday after serving a 90-day sentence for a variety of felonious behavior involving drugs, dogs and identity theft. Dmx, whose real name is Earl Simmons, was sentenced Jan. 30 after cutting a deal with prosecutors on more than a dozen felony counts racked up over the prior 12 months. He ultimately pleaded guilty to one count each of animal cruelty, theft, marijuana possession and possession of a narcotic. But having served his time, why did Dmx have to pay a $10,000 bond to secure his release today? The Cradle 2 the Grave star was booked on suspicion of aggravated assault... »

Rapper Dmx (born Earl Simmons) was released from an Arizona jail early Thursday morning (May 14), after serving more than three months on fraud, drug and animal-cruelty charges.

X was originally sentenced to serve 90 days in the infamous "Tent City" jail in Maricopa County, Arizona, but following an alleged altercation with a corrections officer in February, he was rebooked on suspicion of aggravated assault and his sentence was extended. A spokesperson for the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office did not return calls for comment, but X's new publicist, Pam Pinnock, confirmed the release on Thursday.

"He was released on bail and went home this morning, and he was having breakfast with his family when I talked to him," Pinnock told MTV News early Thursday afternoon.

Assorted Creature Features Hitting DVD

6 March 2009 10:36 AM, PST | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

Looking for DVD news about upcoming creature features starring predators of the sea duking it out, Dmx fighting a giant snake, intergalactic beatnik zombie invaders, and good ol' psycho Sasquatch bloodying up the forest? You've come to the right place today.

We begin with the most important motion picture on the list, possibly the most important motion picture of a generation. I, of course, speak of Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus, The Asylum's non-mockbuster blockbuster due May 19th that pits a mega-sized shark against a giant octopus off the coast of California with Lorenzo Lamas and Debbie Gibson caught in the crossfire. This is the very reason we watch cinema in the first place.

Further details can be found in a rather popular article I wrote about Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus back in January. There's really nothing new to add at this time aside from the unfortunate reality that »

Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li Review

2 March 2009 10:27 PM, PST | newsinfilm.com | See recent newsinfilm news »

If you’re expecting Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li to be bad, you haven’t set your expectations low enough.  I’d rather take a roundhouse kick to the face than watch this movie again.  There’s nothing legendary about The Legend of Chun-Li, it’s just a laughably awful waste of time invoking the name of a beloved video game series.

When you play the game in the arcade, you pump quarters in to continue.  When I was watching this movie, I wished I could put money in to make it stop.  In the scoreless genre of video game adaptations, this movie is among the worst of the worst.  Director Andrzej Bartkowiak seems to be carving a niche for himself in the world of bottom-feeding action after this, another good game ruined by Doom, and the unquestionably bad Exit Wounds starring Dmx.  Even repeat video game offender Uwe Boll could have done better. »

Dmx Dogged By More Jail Time

30 January 2009 12:50 PM, PST | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

The dog days of two summers ago—make that the mistreating dog days—have resulted in a dark day for Dmx. The rapper today was sentenced to 90 days in a Phoenix jail, stemming from his guilty plea last month to one count each of animal cruelty, theft, marijuana possession and possession of a narcotic. In addition to his three-month lockup, the minimum he could have faced as a result of last month's plea deal, the arrest-prone artist, whose real name is Earl Simmons, was placed on 18 months probation for his misdeeds. But if you think he received any special treatment, think again. "I'm not sentencing Dmx today, I'm sentencing Earl Simmons," Maricopa County Superior... »
