Fast & Furious 6 and Insidious Producers Set Up Sci-Fi Thriller
26 April 2013 7:02 PM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
Jason Blum (Insidious) and Chris Morgan (Fast & Furious 6) are teaming up to produce an untitled sci-fi thriller, to be written by actor-turned-scribe Christopher Denham (Argo).
The story centers on a group of students whose technological invention has far-reaching ramifications that these young minds cannot fully comprehend. While the project isn't set up at a studio yet, both Jason Blum and Chris Morgan have first-look deals at Universal Pictures, so it seems likely that the movie may end up there. No production schedule was released.
Christopher Denham played one of the houseguests in last year's Best Picture Argo. He has also appeared in The Bay, Sound of My Voice, and had a three-episode arc on the Fox series The Following. On the other side of the camera, he wrote and directed the 2008 feature Home Movie, and wrote the script for director Oren Peli's Area 51. »

"The Following" Recap: "We Didn't Date, We Flogged Each Other."
2 April 2013 11:41 AM, PDT | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »
We start with a compare/contrast of Joe's (James 100%PureFoy) and Ryan's (Kevin Bacon) morning routines:
Joe jogs in the idyllic Northeast countryside before picking up the satellite phone to call and taunt a few old enemies.
Ryan wakes up from a cheap vodka bender to the sound of Joe's voice cooing insults in his ear.
Seriously? These guys are made for each other, Jack-Sprat-and-wife style. Can the rest of us go home?
Joe calls out Ryan on his drinking, and Ryan hangs up on him. (Atta girl!) Joe calls back, and tells Ryan that he needs to at least become a functioning alcoholic, because a flat-out drunk for a hero is just a tired cliche. Joe says he's going to win Claire's love back, reminding Ryan that love conquers all. Ryan says, "Now that's a tired cliche."
Speaking of, Claire (Natalie Zea, modeling this season's hottest hostage hood) and »

Blu-ray Review - The Bay (2012)
18 March 2013 6:10 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
The Bay, 2012.
Directed by Barry Levinson.
Starring Will Rogers, Kristen Connolly, Kether Donohue, Stephen Nunken, Frank Deal, Christopher Denham and Nansi Aluka.
Synopsis:
Chaos breaks out in the small seaside town of Chesapeake Bay when a deadly plague is unleashed, turning the residents into hosts for a mutant breed of parasites.
If you’ve watched the Paranormal Activity films of late, or watched The Blair Witch Project when that was released, and you find yourself itching to see another found footage film, then The Bay may well be what you’re looking for. Yes right now we’re in the flux of a found footage stampede. They’re coming out left, right and centre. Big screen and small screen. It’s possibly the “in thing” of the horror genre right now. Do we really need another? Do we even want another? If the answer is yes, then The Bay will probably satisfy. »

The Bay DVD Review
15 March 2013 1:00 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
Director: Barry Levinson
Starring: Kristen Connolly, Will Rogers, Christopher Denham,
Running Time: 84 Minutes
Certificate: 15
Extras: Behind the scenes footage, Trailer
News that Barry Levinson, director of Rain Man, Diner and Sphere, was making a found-footage horror film caused either a ripple of excitement, or a ‘sigh’ of tedium depending on your view of the divisive genre.
The simple story harks back to the likes of Jaws as a rapidly spreading parasite rips through a small town on the 4th of July. This outlandish comparison is in no way hyperbolic, because no-one will be going in the water after the events of the movie. More than horror, the film also offers social commentary, with a clearly underprepared government ignoring early warnings in favour of profits.
Levinson manages to put found footage to incredible use: jumping between holiday videos (of which there are many being 4th July), cell phones, webcams, CCTV, and »

Gangs Of Wasseypur Part 2 (18)
(Anurag Kashyap, 2012, Ind) Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Zeishan Quadri, Aditya Kumar, Huma Qureshi. 160 mins
It's over five hours long in all, but there's barely a slack moment in this exhilarating Indian epic as it races through generations of smalltown criminal, industrial and political enmity. Yes, it's violent, but like all great crime stories it's also a vibrant tapestry of family life and modern history, closer to Leone, Coppola or Tarantino than Bollywood.
Stoker (18)
(Park Chan-wook, 2013, Us/UK) Mia Wasikowska, Nicole Kidman, Matthew Goode. 99 mins
The Oldboy director gives us a sensual, tantalisingly ambiguous thriller, centred on Wasikowska and her shifty smalltown family.
Arbitrage (15)
(Nicholas Jarecki, 2012, Us) Richard Gere, Susan Sarandon, Brit Marling. »

Argo: Extended Cut Blu-Ray Review

Certificate: 15
Extras: Feature Length Picture in Picture: Eye Witness Account (theatrical version), Commentary, Rescued from Tehran: We Were There, Argo: Absolute Authenticity, Argo: The CIA & Hollywood Connection, Escape from Iran: The Hollywood Option
Critical acclaim is fine, it adds certain audience pressures, but winning the Best Picture Academy Award is a whole different pressure. Past winners The Artist (2012), The Kings Speech (2011) and The Hurt Locker (2010), amongst others, have been put under a microscope following victory and this year it’s Argo’s turn.
Militants attack the Us Embassy in Iran taking 44 people hostage. Six workers escape to the Canadian Ambassadors house waiting for the troubles to blow over. As time passes the CIA formulate a plan involving a fake movie, false passports and Tony Mendez (Aflleck) risking his life in »

'The Bay' review: "Taking the found footage subgenre to new depths"
26 February 2013 5:44 AM, PST | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »
Director: Barry Levinson; Screenwriter: Michael Wallach; Starring: Kristen Connolly, Christopher Denham, Jane McNeill; Running time: 84 mins; Certificate: 15
Oscar-winning director Barry Levinson, the veteran who helmed classics like Rain Men, Diner and Bugsy, deserves kudos for attempting to turn the increasingly moribund found footage subgenre into a more thought-provoking entity. But beyond noble intentions lies a largely ineffective and ponderous movie that harnesses many of the worst elements of both the horror genre and the found footage trope.
The Bay has a familiar eco-disaster premise that harks back to movies like Return of the Living Dead Part II. Instead of the toxic gas spillage that torments a town in that zombie splatterfest, Levinson's movie features a waterborne threat that stems from the unethical dumping of waste off the shores of a seaside town in Maryland.
After the one-dimensionally fiendish mayor ignores some ominous scientific research, a deadly plague is unleashed and »
10 ‘True Stories’ You Should Take With A Pinch Of Salt
23 February 2013 6:18 AM, PST | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Real life stories are a major influence in cinema. Some of the greatest films ever made have been based on a true story.
Today, ‘based on a true story’ or ‘based on real events’ have become phrases specifically used to attract audiences; horror films, supernatural thrillers and even political dramas will use these phrases in their trailers and on their posters. Real life isn’t as exciting as cinema will have us believe unfortunately, so some real events – no matter how cool or exciting they will be – will have to be spiced up a little to make a decent film. Some films try to pass fiction off as real life however so here is ten ‘true’ stories that aren’t 100% true.
Most of them are not gross instances of lying but there are some interesting facts about the real life stories that surround the films. Other films rely purely on »

The Bay Review
17 January 2013 7:19 AM, PST | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
Director: Barry Levinson
Cast: Christopher Denham, Kether Donohue, Will Rogers, Kristen Connolly
Running time: 82 mins
Certificate: Tba
Synopsis: A mockumentary horror thriller tracking a relentless plague in the form of a mutant parasite, which becomes rife in the waters of Chesapeake Bay, in Claridge, Maryland. The small close-knit community soon descends into terror and chaos.
Told through the inevitable use of found footage (everything from skype conversations to CCTV), this narrative flits back and forth between residents of the town, including an aspiring reporter who survived the outbreak, and a pair of new parents who, along with their ankle biter, arrive at the wrong place at the wrong time.
The Bay is a ridiculous movie, which should be avoided by anyone with – even semi-functional – eyes or ears. It is such a giant medley of unbelievable inconsistencies, weak plotting, and shambolic characters that I may have to hand the responsibility of »

DVD & Digital Download Release Date: March 5, 2013

An ecological disaster wreaks havoc on a small community in The Bay.
The 2012 ecological horror-science fiction thriller film The Bay is directed by director Barry Levinson (Disclosure) and produced by prolific filmmaker Jason Blum, who was behind the horror films Paranormal Activity and Insidious.
In July, 2009, a deadly menace swept through the quaint seaside town of Claridge, Maryland, but the harrowing story of what happened that Independence Day has never been told – until now. The authorities believed they had buried the truth about the tragedy that claimed over 700 human lives. Now, three years later, a reporter emerges with footage revealing the cover-up and an unimaginable killer: a mysterious parasitic outbreak.
Told from the perspective of those who were there and saw what happened—yup, this is another one of those found-footage flicks—the movie unfolds over 24 hours through people’s iPhones, »
