Spike (2008)

21 November 2009 2:03 PM, PST

Writer/Director: Robert Beaucage

Cast: Sarah Livingston Evans, Jared Edwards, Anna-Marie Wayne, Nancy P. Corbo, Edward Gusts

Chaos Productions

"Spike" starts, as horror films often do, with a car crash along a rural road at night. But this particular car crash is no accident. Two couples traveling to an unnamed destination are halted by what looks like a steam punk accessory. No one is seriously injured in the accident, but after the lone dude goes to check out the tire damage, an unseen assailant attacks him. The gothic spikes he found in the tire are now sticking out of his throat and he's bleeding out fast. The three remaining girls go into panic mode and try to figure out how to save their friend and just what the hell is going on.

The situation escalates quickly. Naturally, there is no cell phone reception and the Evil Dead cam is stalking them. »

Jennifer Thym ('Lumina')

16 November 2009 1:13 PM, PST

Jennifer Thym is a Hong Kong filmmaker with a genre-bending web series she defines as ‘magical realism’. Lumina features a female lead in a strangely sci-fi modern world where mirrors lead to romance and corporate greed, and a supernatural force called The Mirrorati that are to be feared. Thym developed her web series with some immersive storylines, deep back stories, and a long-term plan that could include a feature film, graphic novelizations, and a Mmorpg (massively multiplayer online role playing game.)

“In TV terms, I think it's closest to Lost,” says Thym about Lumina's genre, “a serial thriller interwoven with fantastical elements and real world conspiracies...”

Lumina as a series is unlike anything else out there right now on the web or on television, despite having similarities to Lost. And the name ‘Lumina’ for her lead character is unorthodox as well. Maybe that’s because it is something Thym heard in a dream. »

Katt Shea on 'Pom Pom Girls' and Allison Anders on 'The Big T.N.T. Show'

15 November 2009 10:22 PM, PST

Today - Monday, November 16, join cult film director Katt Shea (Poison Ivy, The Rage: Carrie 2) at Trailers From Hell for the trailer to The Pom Pom Girls. Even in 1976 Joe Rubin's drive-in sexploitation hit was considered a cut above the usual, so its relative obscurity today can only be ascribed to its long unavailablity.

Then, on Wednesday, November 18, join Allison Anders for the trailer to The Big T.N.T. Show. Aip's 1966 followup to the smash rock concert hit The T.A.M.I. Show is fun but had less cultural impact. The lineup is stellar but producer Phil Spector didn't hit the jackpot this time out.
