The BRøKEN Review
27 January 2009 9:17 AM, PST | Twitch | See recent Twitch news »
[While our forum has been a quiet place for the last little while, there are still regular visitors that lurk there and drop some quality opinions on those little films from around the world we love so much. Because I am more than a bit jealous that regular reader Onderhond has seen this film and his thoughts are very well articulated, his review has been punted out of the forum and onto the main-site below:]
It is weird how The Broken seems to have slipped under so many radars. Cashback, Sean Ellis’ first film, gained the director many fans, many of whom should be more than excited to see his follow-up. Maybe it’s because The Broken is very different in style, maybe it’s because Mirrors has a superficially similar theme or maybe it’s just because this film could be quite difficult to market. While Cashback was quite light, humorous and even poetic in tone, The Broken is simply dark and menacing. Something Ellis’ claims to be closer to his home territory, and who can contradict him after seeing his newest film? Every part of the film is tweaked to inject some sense of real dread into the audience.

Martyrs DVD art; first After Dark disc details
22 January 2009 10:25 AM, PST | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »
Fango got a first look at cover art for the Weinstein Company and Genius Products’ DVD release of Martyrs. Surprisingly, Pascal Laugier’s much-talked-about gorefest will be going out under the Weinstein label, not as one of its Dimension Extreme titles.
The movie, in which two young women confront torturous terrors in their past and present, will nonetheless be uncut and unrated when it hits DVD April 28. Special features, if any, have yet to be announced; we’ll keep you posted. See our exclusive set report on Martyrs and interview with writer/director Laugier in Fango #281, on sale in February.
We also got the initial news from Lionsgate Home Entertainment about special features for its After Dark Horrorfest titles coming March 31 (see covers and pre-order links here). All of the movies will be presented in widescreen with Dolby Digital 5.1 audio, accompanied by Miss Horrorfest webisodes. As of now, the most »
Whedon's Cabin Opens Its Doors for Actors
21 January 2009 | shocktillyoudrop.com | See recent shocktillyoudrop news »
Joss Whedon's The Cabin in the Woods nabbed its first two actors: Richard Jenkins ( The Broken ) and Bradley Whitford ( The West Wing ). Plot details on the film, co-written and directed by Drew Goddard (writer of Cloverfield ), are still under wraps, however, THR says the two will play white-collar types connected to the titular cabin. "They're the first proof that though Cabin in the Woods is a classic horror film, it isn't one you've seen before," Whedon says. It's still far too early for any real buzz over Cabin in the Woods to sweep through the community, but I have a sneaking suspicion that things will certainly ramp up in a few months when principal photography begins. This is supposedly one to keep a close eye on. The script is said to be terrific - a »
Actors set to visit Whedon’s Cabin
20 January 2009 10:13 PM, PST | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Richard Jenkins and Bradley Whitford are the first two actors to be cast in Joss Whedon’s new fright feature The Cabin In The Woods. Whedon will produce the film and scripted it with Cloverfield’s Drew Goddard, who will direct.
Details on the film’s storyline are being kept under wraps, though it’s said to be a variation on the conventional genre scenario of young people under siege by evil in the title location. The two actors will play white-collar co-workers who share a connection to the cabin. “They’re the first proof that though The Cabin In The Woods is a classic horror film, it isn’t one you’ve seen before,” Whedon tells the trade. Indeed, neither is known for horror work; longtime character actor Jenkins (left) most recently won raves for the indie drama The Visitor, while Whitford (right) is »
