"I need you to focus on your life... Think about the things that you want to know..." Trinity Creative has just revealed an official trailer for an acclaimed British indie film titled Hurt by Paradise, which premiered at the Edinburgh Film Festival in 2019, also stopping by the Raindance Film Festival. Hurt by Paradise is a film about a poet and a girl with big hair. Together they find friendship as the possibility of their dreams dwindles. It's described as "the British Francis Ha... a heartfelt love letter to female friendship and London, from first time writer/director Greta Bellamacina," who also stars in the film as Celeste Blackwood. The cast includes Nicholas Rowe, Anna Brewster, Sai Bennett, Jaime Winstone, and Tanya Burr. This looks a bit kooky but still charming and extra clever and, of course, brutally honest about the way things are. Here's the official trailer (+ posters) for Greta Bellamacina's Hurt by Paradise,...

A new drama about Tudor queen Anne Boleyn, starring Jodie Turner-Smith, has found its Henry VIII.
British actor Mark Stanley has been cast as the iconic monarch. Best known for playing Grenn in the HBO series “Game of Thrones,” Stanley has also had starring roles in “Kajaki,” “Our Kind of Traitor” and “Dickensian.”

At a time when most ruined future Earths are drawing on themes of climate change or that old stalwart, nuclear Armageddon, Guy Moshe takes a step sideways into a world where the loss of the ozone layers has rendered the daytime sun inimical to human life (the vast toll it must have taken on other forms of life is not addressed). Society has restructured itself in a way that will seem familiar to viewers watching during the Covid-19 pandemic, with most people working from home and most activities carried out in the virtual realm. Here's, life is much safer - but the shortage of accidents means that when Adam (James D'Arcy) is told that his heart is failing, he despairs - there's little hope of a transplant.
Adam has recently separated from wife Reena (Anna Brewster) but still worries about what will become of her and his three sons, especially as.

In this fictionalized future, Adam (D'Arcy) is set to be replaced by a clone, after it is discovered he has heart disease. As his replacement is inbound, Adam must assess his life, before he is decommissioned. Bleiberg Entertainment will bring Lx 2048 to TIFF later this year - for potential international sales. And, this title is slated to show in the U.S. on September 25, through Digital platforms.

"Did you not think it was dangerous – playing god like that?" Quiver Dist. has released an official trailer for a peculiar, fascinating new sci-fi feature titled Lx 2048, a new film from filmmaker Guy Moshe who hasn't made anything since Bunraku back in 2010 (remember that one?). The concept for this is very, very timely and a clear reference to what's going on these days. In the near future, the sun has become so toxic people can no longer leave their houses in daytime, and normal life is conducted mostly inside the virtual realm. Everyone is so depressed they're prescribed a drug called 001LithiumX (which was the original title of the film). Against this dystopian backdrop, a dying man seeks to ensure the well-being of his family, while coping with what it means to be human in this new reality.

The critics, so far, have a unanimous verdict: “The Last Days of American Crime,” Netflix’s new sci-fi/heist mashup that features scenes of police brutality and other gratuitous violence, is one of the worst films… ever.
The movie, released on Netflix June 5, has a 0% Tomatometer score on Rotten Tomatoes, which means none of the 26 critical reviews tabulated by the site were positive. Overall, the site assigned a 2.27 out of 10 rating for the film across reviewers.
“The Last Days of American Crime” joins only 42 other films (with at least 20 reviews) to receive the dubious distinction of getting a Tomatometer goose egg, including Netflix’s “The Ridiculous 6” from Adam Sandler, “Gotti” starring John Travolta, 1990’s “Problem Child,” “Staying Alive” (also starring Travolta) and “Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol.”
The consensus is that, with protests nationwide over the police killing of George Floyd, the timing of the movie’s release is a disaster.

Netflix has been bringing us a solid helping of original movies over the last few months. However, it must be said that the quality has varied quite a bit. Coffee & Kareem was pretty terrible, while Extraction was all kinds of awesome. Still, both saw very solid viewing figures. Now, their latest original is available for you to stream and it comes in the form of sci-fi heist drama The Last Days Of American Crime.

In the not-so-distant future, the U.S, government has developed the “American Peace Initiative,” commonly known as A.P.I. It’s essentially a piercing signal that, when deployed, prohibits a person’s thoughts regarding the practice of criminal behaviors — unleashing “the cop within,” according to its slogan. Announcers and electronic billboards count down the number of days until free will becomes a thing of the past. Until then, however, lawlessness rules the street, in the form of violence, looting [cue Gif of man pulling shirt collar away from neck and making Garrggh face], and topless ladies dancing on the roofs of cars.

These days, searching for solace amid a global pandemic and nationwide protests, film critics frequently find themselves referring to “the movie we need right now,” lavishing that clichéd description on anything that offers the slightest comfort or context in a world turned upside down. Let me assure you, Netflix’s “The Last Days of American Crime” is not that movie. In fact, this gory, excessive and frequently incoherent near-future heist film from Luc Besson protégé Olivier Megaton is pretty much the opposite: It’s an offensive eyesore in which

Shakespearean Transformer Olivier Megaton is back with a brand new actioner. The Versailles-born director of Taken 2 and Taken 3 will bring his latest cars-and-shooting movie to Netflix in June, and the streaming service has just released a first trailer for it.
The Last Days of American Crime is based on the 2009 Rick Remender and Greg Tocchini graphic novel, and has been adapted for the screen by Oblivion scribe Karl Gajdusek. It’s got a decent cast, too – The Assassination of Gianni Versace‘s Edgar Ramírez leads the pack alongside Anna Brewster (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) with a surprising appearance from Boardwalk Empire‘s Michael Pitt, who appears to be firing on all cylinders at Full Michael Pitt. That just so happens to be our favorite level of Michael Pitt, so we’ll probably have to check this one out.

Greta Bellamacina will star in “Thomasina,” an upcoming horror movie from Jaclyn Bethany. Rileigh McDonald (“The Sinner”) has also signed on for the movie, which is set in the underbelly of L.A.
Director and actress Bellamacina has been in the news at Cannes after being refused entry to the Marche with her baby son, then being told she needed to pay an accreditation fee for the infant, a procedure that would take 48 hours to process. The organizers said there was a mix-up on the ground and that it had fixed the situation, but it was an embarrassing incident at a moment when gender equality is firmly in the spotlight.
The “Thomasina” announcement and casting is more regular Cannes news. McDonald, who has been starring in “Matilda” on Broadway, plays the titular character in the picture, a mysterious, down-on-her-luck teenager whose life begins to spin out of control after her mother’s murder.

Ashton Holmes has secured the co-starring role opposite Jamie Lee Curtis in CBS’ untitled David Marshall Grant pilot, formerly known as Only Human. The medical drama, from Carl Beverly and Sarah Timberman’s Timberman/Beverly and CBS TV Studios, is based on an Israeli format, revolves around quadruplets — three brothers and a sister — who grew up on a reality show. Curtis will play their mother, Caroline Lang, a dynamic and distinguished physician who now runs the hospital. Anna Brewster has also been cast as the sister, Diana, a doctor who has dedicated her life to research. Related: 2014 CBS Pilots Holmes, repped by Apa, Intellectual Artists Management and attorney David Feldman, will play Gary, possibly the most brilliant of the Lang quadruplets, who left medical school to travel the world and find himself before a near-death experience impels him to head back Stateside to the loved ones he left behind.

Director: Nick Cohen.
Writers: Mark Anthony Galluzzo and Chris Baker.
This review is going back a little to After Dark Horrorfest's 2010 lineup which included The Reeds. This is a film that sees several friends boating around the United Kingdom in tragic fashion. This weekender involves exploding propane tanks, vicious burns and gory impalements. Most would classify this title a horror film, but the film goes a little deeper than that into history and into tragedy.
Laura (Anna Brewster), Joe (Daniel Caltagirone), Mel (Emma Catherwood), Nick (O.T. Fagbenle) and Chris (Will Mellor) head out on a boat rented to them by Mr. Croker (George Bell). Quickly, they become lost in head height reeds, until there is a light in the distance. That light is firelight and burning is Mr. Croker's dog. This is some foreshadowing for events to come as several cast members will meet a similar fiery fate.

One of the very first things any history student gets taught is objectivity. In fact, the most effective way to judge a distant era is to do it without judgement of values. While Stephen Frears's Mrs Henderson Presents more or less ignores that rule, it's a humorous and smart observation of a time when Great Britain was still trying to break away from the strict Victorian values.
The film is based on a true story. After her husband's death in 1937, Laura Henderson (Judi Dench) inherits his wealth and doesn't intend to be bored stiff by widowhood. On a whim, she buys a derelict London theatre, calls it the Windmill Theatre and persuade impresario Vivian Van Damm (Bob Hoskins) to run it even though both of them are at loggerheads. However, Henderson and Van Damm will go down in history for running a non-stop revue. Furthermore, they'll shock a government...

If you like to be scared, really scared, we know a great way to terrorize yourself for nearly twenty hours, all for just $159.98. How, you ask? Well, here's how: run out and buy the fourth installment of After Dark Horrorfest 8 Films to Die For. Really, it's that simple. Not familiar with 8 Films to Die for? Each year, After Dark opens eight indie horror films in theaters in major markets, and then the folks at Lionsgate release them on DVD, both separately and as a packaged set. The 2010 collection is out now, and there's some stuff well worth recommending, a bunch of cool, up-and-coming actors and actresses screaming their heads off, and stacks of directors showing some major chops and priming themselves for bright futures. Lake Mungo (2010) centers on a family that discovers some crazy secrets about their daughter after her supposedly accidental death. The relatively unknown cast includes Rosie Traynor,...

Now in it's fourth year, Horrorfest, the annual cinematic showcase for After Dark Films, has established something of a reputation as a platform for fresh, daring filmmakers to get themselves noticed. More than just a simple market for nasties, the After Dark label stands for quality by way of authenticity, delivering horror films by genre lovers for genre lovers. In addition to this yearly frightfest, After Dark recently announced a new venture to develop their own projects, in partnership with SyFy, NBC, and Lionsgate, titled After Dark Originals. Aiming to do for horror what the Sundance Institute did for the American indie, the eight slate series will begin production next month with a view towards theatrical release later this fall.
Titles featured in this year's Horrorfest include:

The Reeds is a Funnyman Films production that will release January 29th with several other titles in the 2010 Horrorfest Film Festival. Financed by Screen East, Siverstream Productions, Altadena Films, Delacheroy Films, and Di Dragon, The Reeds now has a final, bloodier, film poster (click for a better look). Showing endless lines of tall grass this one-sheet centers on the tagline "No Outs." The Reeds official poster also displays dark reds that fade into blackness. Eerie and sinister enough for a horror festival, The Reeds movie poster stands out as being one of the better film posters to be released, despite the simplicity of the picture.
