Fright At Home: June 18th’s DVD & Blu-ray Releases!

7 hours ago | iconsoffright.com | See recent Icons of Fright news »

Welcome back to another edition of Fright At Home, fiends! It’s been a while since I’ve written up a groovy list of this weeks latest & greatest video releases, so let’s get right down to brass taxes!

This week sees the release of two long requested MGM titles that are getting the lavish Scream Factory treatment, The Howling and Lifeforce! Both are packed to the gills with bonus features (Lifeforce even includes the Hooper’s Directors Cut!); basically they are must-own discs that look pristine.

A segment from the lost Full Moon anthology Pulsepounders finally makes it’s way to DVD after 25 years of obscurity, Charles Band’s The Evil Clergyman! The Soska Twins’ American Mary makes it’s stateside debut, and the Eli Roth produced sequel no one asked for The Last Exorcism Part II hits as well.

Stoker, one of my favorites of 2013 is out also, »

'All Together Now': Lou Taylor Pucci rocks out in all-night concert film -- Exclusive Video

10 June 2013 2:35 PM, PDT | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »

The euphoria of an all-night concert — the crazy hook-ups, the booze and, of course, the killer music — is the kind of larger-than-life, emotionally charged scene that movies are made for.

So it’s no surprise that chasing that feeling led director and co-writer Alexander Mirecki to film All Together Now, which premieres Saturday at the L.A. Film Festival.

“For the longest time I had been interested in a narrative that had progressed in almost real time, where you didn’t take a huge chunk of time and try and condense it,” Mirecki explained on the phone with EW. “The »

The Last Exorcism Part II – review

10 June 2013 5:08 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

Produced by Eli Roth (the man responsible for the Hostel films), The Last Exorcism was a horror movie using, like The Blair Witch Project and Paranormal Activity, that overworked form, the faux-documentary. It centred on a fundamentalist pastor in the deep south who has lost his faith in the exorcisms he's been conducting and sets out to expose fraudsters. But on an expedition to a remote Louisiana farm to expose what he believes to be another hoax, he confronts the real deal. It's an edgy movie that eventually gets really scary.

This cannot, however, be said of the sequel, The Last Exorcism Part II, in which a girl apparently possessed by demons turns up in New Orleans and is sent to be sorted out at a home for troubled young women. Unfortunately, the home's resident therapist thinks all she needs is a little TLC, when in fact a horde of »

Aftershock is Still Rumbling Late into the Picture: A Movie Review

9 June 2013 3:42 PM, PDT | 28 Days Later Analysis | See recent 28 Days Later Analysis news »

*there are some spoilers here. Director: Nicolás López. Writers: Guillermo Amoedo, Nicolás López and Eli Roth. Cast: Lorenza Izzo, Nicolás Martínez, Eli Roth, Natasha Yarovenko, Ariel Levy and Andrea Osvárt. Aftershock is the latest horror title from Hostel creator Eli Roth. Roth even headlines this piece and Roth is one of three writers for the film. The story borrows from the many disaster films of the '70s. In films like The Poseidon Adventure (1972) and The Towering Inferno (1974): characters are introduced, a chaotic event takes place and the conclusion ends peacefully. This formula is mostly followed in Aftershock. Yet, the conclusion here is a lot more tragic. As well, the principal characters are lost by the beginning of Act 3, which is a strange choice. Aftershock still manages to remain entertaining despite a slow start. The story begins with three friends: Pollo (Nicolás Martínez), Gringo (Eli Roth) and Ariel (Ariel Levy »

‘The Last Exorcism Part II’s Ashley Bell Talks Demonic To Thn

7 June 2013 1:20 PM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

While most found-footage entries have us rolling our eyes, one effort impressed largely thanks to a lead character doing exactly that. Daniel Stamm’s The Last Exorcism followed a documentary crews attempt, along with a now faithless reverend, to disprove the methods secretly used in the church for exorcisms. Rising star Ashely Bell gave an impressive, tormented performance as Nell Sweetzer, the young teen daughter of a Louisiana farmer claiming she’s lost to demonic forces.

Bell reprises her role in the sequel, The Last Exorcism Part II, which has dropped the found-footage aspect in favour of a standard narrative. Thn were lucky enough to put some questions to the actress about her back-breaking return in the Eli Roth-produced chiller, due in Us cinemas tomorrow.

Could you tell us at which point Nell’s life is at in the new film?

Part two begins where part one ended. We »

Shock Interview: Toby Jones on Berberian Sound Studio

7 June 2013 6:00 AM, PDT | shocktillyoudrop.com | See recent shocktillyoudrop news »

Any diehard reader of ShockTillYouDrop.com should be intimately familiar with the Giallo style of horror filmmaking that came out of Italy in the late '60s and early '70s, gory and gruesome affairs that made cult figures out of the likes of Dario Argento and Mario Bava. Those films have been hugely influential on American horror from the original Friday the 13th to the works of Eli Roth and Rob Zombie.

British filmmaker Peter Strickland's Berberian Sound Studio is not a Giallo film but it pays loving tribute to them by going behind the scenes in an Italian recording studio where they're doing voiceover and sound FX work for one of those grisly Italian horror films. Toby Jones (Frank Darabont's The Mist) stars as Gilderoy, a British sound engineer who travels to Italy to work in a studio doing sound FX for what he thinks is »

The Hollywood News Interview: Eli Roth on ‘The Last Exorcism Part II’

7 June 2013 1:05 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Thn was recently lucky enough to sit down and chat with one of the modern masters of horror, Eli Roth (we think he did that cabin film about a cabin at one point or another). With The Last Exorcism Part II, Roth’s latest movie, due out in cinemas later this month, now seemed the perfect time to squeeze him for information. That’s right, we didn’t just talk about cuddly bunnies and rainbows for the whole interview.

So where does this sequel find Nell? Where do things go after the events of the first film?

We were having trouble, where do we go with the story? And we loved the idea of following Nell, and what would happen if she lives in a world where the first film exists but it exists as a viral video. And she has absolutely no memory of what happened to her. She »

The Last Exorcism: Part II – review

6 June 2013 4:00 PM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

This sequel to the well-received mockumentary-style shocker from 2010 is done without the mockumentary angle or really any point

It's a bit disconcerting seeing the words "Part II" here. As "Last" Exorcisms go, this is turning into a bit of a Sinatra Farewell Tour. The last Last Exorcism came out in 2010, produced by Eli Roth, a mockumentary shocker admired for its smart approach and quite a few effective chills. This sequel is lucklustre, however, and when the possessed young woman involved goes into the now traditional demonic backward-crab position, you can feel an arthritic twinge. The story is told conventionally, without the documentary gimmick, and the first film's existence is acknowledged, cursorily, by having it show up at one stage on YouTube. Ashley Bell does a reasonable job as Nell, the comprehensively freaked-out survivor of the first ritual of satanic slaughter, who senses the Evil One is still after her. It's competently made, »

Horror With a Heart: Three Days of Fundraising for Boston

5 June 2013 9:58 AM, PDT | Planet Fury | See recent Planet Fury news »

We all know, of course, what happened on April 15, 2013, in Boston, Massachusetts; as thousands of people ran a famous marathon through one of America's oldest and most historic cities, multiple explosions went off near the finish line. Many were killed or injured, and fundraisers have sprung up across the globe to help the community and the victims and their families. And one of the philanthropists lending a hand is one of horror's most beloved figures.

Adam Green, the director of Spiral and Frozen and the mastermind behind the popular slasher films in the Hatchet series, was born and raised in the Boston area in a small picturesque town called Holliston. Green, currently working on his own FearNet original sitcom, Holliston, and the upcoming Chris Columbus (of Goonies fame) film Killer Pizza, opted to plan a three-night fundraising extravaganza in his hometown area.

Green began posting details on his social media as details became available. »

This season’s first episode starts off with our blonde bisexual Tiphany riding a mechanical bull.

Tiphany is celebrating her decision to finally move out of Angela’s house and live on her own. Angela is supportive of Tiphany’s relocation (i.e. she will not miss hearing Tiphany having loud sex). But Mia is concerned that Tiphany might not be ready for total independence.

We fast-forward to moving day and Tiphany loves her new tiny apartment. Mia, being the more practical of the two, is worried because the place isn’t on the ground floor.

‘The Last Exorcism Part 2′ Review

1 June 2013 4:06 AM, PDT | Blogomatic3000 | See recent Blogomatic3000 news »

Stars: Ashley Bell, Julia Garner, Spencer Treat Clark, David Jensen, Tarra Riggs, Louis Herthum, Muse Watson, Erica Michelle, Sharice A. Williams | Written by Ed Gass-Donnelly, Damien Chazelle | Directed by Ed Gass-Donnelly

The Last Exorcism Part 2 is a somewhat incongruous title and the film itself bears little resemblance to the first instalment from 2010, produced like this effort by Eli Roth, a sleeper hit which made over 10 times its initial production budget in its opening weekend in the Us alone. On the back of mixed to positive reviews and name recognition that all film studios like, The Last Exorcism gets a second parts which somewhat takes away from the title of the first film, but does tries to shake things up a bit, certainly more than most horror franchises do.

Unlike the first film which relied heavily on found footage, this time its only on show here in a recap of events »
