22 May 2012 9:52 AM, PDT | The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news »

Fans of the Twilight franchise will recall Ali Faulkner as Bianca, a human who delivered a message to vampire lawmakers the Volturi in Breaking Dawn Part 1.

DVD Review: The Watermen

17 April 2012 2:00 AM, PDT | Blogomatic3000 | See recent Blogomatic3000 news »

The Watermen

Stars: Jason Mewes, Richard Riehle, Luke Guldan, Tyler Johnson, Tara Heston | Written and Directed by Matt L. Lockhart

The Watermen is a stereotypical, cliche-filled sea-set slasher that felt like it had been penned by someone who had watched way too many classic 80s slasher movies… The story follows a group of obnoxious teens, including one Mr. Jason Mewes channeling his inner black-rapper, who set off on a boat trip and get caught up (literally) by a bunch of freakish fishermen whose chum of choice is ground-up human!

“A group of hot, rich, young things led by the dynamic Trailor (Mewes) set out for a deep-sea fishing trip on a million-dollar yacht, but soon their fun turns into disaster when a fire damages their engine and they find themselves marooned in the middle of the ocean. Spotting a ship on the horizon they alert them to their distress and are rescued, »

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D Delayed

25 February 2012 1:43 PM, PST | DailyDead | See recent DailyDead news »

Sorry, Leatherface fans. If you were looking forward to checking out The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D this Halloween, you’re now going to have to wait until 2013. Lionsgate has moved the release date from it’s original October 5th spot to January 4th, 2013.

Directed by John Luessenhop, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D stars Alexandra Daddario, Scott Eastwood, Bill Moseley, Tania Raymonde, Trey Songz, Keram Malicki-Sanchez, Shaun Sipos, Thom Barry, Paul Rae, and Richard Riehle. The new movie is not a remake and does not tie into the earlier remake from Platinum Dunes. Instead, this film is being developed as a direct sequel to the storyline from the original 1974 movie.

Taking its place in October is Sinister, a found footage horror film starring Ethan Hawke and Vincent D’Onofrio. Tim Burton’s Frankenweenie also opens on October 5th and Paramount will release Paranormal Activity 4 on October 19th. »

Release Date Shuffle: Sinister Steals The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D's October Slot

24 February 2012 11:06 PM, PST | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

Time to get out your pencils and erasers again, kids. Two films that are high on our radar are doing that ol' release date shuffle with Sinister taking over The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D's newly vacated October 5th slot.

Since it's been awhile since we've heard anything new about The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D, it's not a huge surprise it's been pushed back a few months from its original October 2012 date to January 4, 2013. All the better to let things get even more rotten in the state of Texas! Besides, January is proving to be almost as popular for horror films as October anyway.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D, a direct sequel to Tobe Hooper's original film, is being directed by John Luessenhop from a screenplay by Adam Marcus, Debra Sullivan and Kirsten Elms. Dan Yeager, John Dugan, Bill Moseley, Alexandra Daddario, Sue Rock, Tania Raymonde, Scott Eastwood, Gunnar Hansen, »

Movie Review - The Watermen (2011)

7 February 2012 1:23 AM, PST | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

The Watermen, 2011.

Written and Directed by Matt L. Lockhart.

Starring Jason Mewes, Richard Riehle, Floyd Abel, Luke Guldan and Tyler Johnson.

Synopsis:

A group of sport fishermen and their attractive lady friends go on a fishing trip, but they soon get captured by some murderous watermen and must fight for their lives.

What worse place is there to be stranded than the middle of the ocean? With the boat engine tampered with and the flares missing, the dodgy watermen who filled the tank and sold the group interesting looking bait are of course to blame. The group are starving, deprived of drinking water and desperate. So when a large fishing boat comes along with aid, their desperation clouds their judgement. The water they glug so aggressively is laced with some sort of drug, and the group soon literally hit the deck unconscious.
