Stallone Broke His Neck During The Expendables Shoot

23 hours ago | FilmShaft.com | See recent FilmShaft.com news »

It is tradition for actors about to take the stage to say “break a leg”. However, proving he’s a double-hard bastard, Sylvester Stallone went one further during filming of The Expendables, and broke his neck. In an interview with British magazine FHM, the actor-director, commented:

“”Actually, my fight with Stone Cold Steve Austin was so vicious that I ended up getting a hairline fracture in my neck. I’m not joking. I haven’t told anyone this, but I had to have a very serious operation afterwards. I now have a metal plate in my neck.”

Stallone has undergone something of a career renaissance since the one-two cinematic uppercut of Rocky Balboa and Rambo. Far from being terrible, both films gave the audience a reminder that, at one time, Stallone was one of the biggest stars in the world.

The Expendables is released worldwide in April and stars an »

Sylvester Stallone, 63, broke his neck in a fight scene during filming for his latest movie. Stallone underwent emergency surgery after a scene with former wrestler Steve Austin went badly wrong on the set of The Expendables. Stallone said: 'My fight was so vicious I got a hairline fracture in my neck. I had to have a very serious operation.' Cast and crew are likely to feel ill-fated since the late actress Brittany Murphy also appeared in the movie. Stallone is a veteran action hero of The Rambo and Rocky series movies. He has had a metal plate inserted into his neck. The movie which opens in August will be hotly anticipated and stars »

Penance (DVD Review)

1 January 2010 12:03 PM, PST | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »

Horror is so huge right now that I feel as if I can safely say that nearly 5-10 of the best boxing movies each weekend are of the horror/thriller/sci-fi genre. Saw II boxed 90 million not to mention the recent success of Paranormal Activity at 104 million.  Of course there are different types of horror: the most popular right now being Vampire (Twilight, True Blood, Vampire Diaries, and the soon to be released Daybreakers). Penance, written and directed Jake Kennedy (Days Of Darkness) , is most recently available on DVD and I will write upfront, if you are into torture, this is your movie.

Struggling to provide for her young child, single mom Amelia (Marieh Delfino of Jeepers Creepers II) grudgingly decides to become a stripper to take care of her young daughter and herself. But her decision proves disastrous when it lands her in the throws of a self-righteous psychotic (Graham McTavish, »
