Tarsem Singh To Direct Noirish Fantasy Thriller Killing On Carnival Row

Tarsem Singh To Direct Noirish Fantasy Thriller ‘Killing On Carnival Row’ By Russ Fischer/Nov. 17, 2011 3:00 pm EST For years we didn’t hear much at all about Tarsem Singh (The Cell, The Fall). But his new film Immortals opened a week ago to generally negative opinion (I liked it more than most, though I’ll never argue that it is ‘good’) and the trailer for his family-oriented Snow White comedy Mirror, Mirror just hit this week....

TBS Announces November 8 Start Date For Conan O’Brien By David Chen/May 19, 2010 8:33 am EST The past few months have been a fascinating journey for late-night host Conan O’Brien. After a bruising battle with NBC, which ended with an agreement stating that he could not publicly disparage NBC nor appear on television for about six months, O’Brien is finally ready to make the return to late night. TBS has just announced that Conan’s new show will premiere on the station on November 8, 2010 at 11 PM....

Timur Bekmambetov To Contribute To Chinese Remake Of Russian Version Of New Year S Eve

Timur Bekmambetov To Contribute To Chinese Remake Of Russian Version Of ‘New Year’s Eve’ By Russ Fischer/Dec. 23, 2011 9:00 am EST Need help puzzling out that headline? Here you go: Yolki, aka Six Degrees of Celebration, is a Russian film that is about “eight different Russians – from eight different time zones – and how their destinies intersect one New Years Eve."(Ok, so maybe it isn’t quite the Russian version of New Year’s Eve, if only because it doesn’t have Bon Jovi and Robert De Niro, but close enough, I think....

VOTD: ‘Late Bloomer’ – If H.P. Lovecraft Took Junior High Sex Ed By Angie Han/May 9, 2011 11:00 am EST Still bummed about the fact that Guillermo del Toro’s At the Mountains of Madness is no longer happening? Well, there’s not much I can do about that… but perhaps today’s Video of the Day will help ease your H.P. Lovecraft craving just a tiny bit. Craig Macneill’s Late Bloomer isn’t a Lovecraft adaptation per se, but it explicitly draws inspiration from the horror author’s oeuvre to tell the tale of one “seventh grade sex ed class gone horribly wrong....

VOTD: Cours Toujours By Peter Sciretta/Aug. 10, 2010 12:00 am EST Olivier Barre and Elise Garcette directed this wonderful animated short film titled Cours Toujours (American translation Stay on Course). The story follows a man chasing after a cute little bird. I really love to mix of retro stylized design with new computer animation techniques. Watch the short film embedded after the jump. Thanks to Cat H for the tip....

Conan The Barbarian Trailer

‘Conan The Barbarian’ Trailer By Russ Fischer/May 4, 2011 4:33 pm EST The first teaser trailer for the new Conan the Barbarian was dreadfully uninspiring. Made up of smoke and spare glimpses of footage, it played like Lionsgate and Millennium were trying to hide something. Now the full trailer is out, and there’s definitely no hiding anything here. The movie looks more or less as you’d expect it to look, but there might be some fun adventure within....

‘The Skin I Live In’ US Trailer And Poster By Russ Fischer/Aug. 29, 2011 3:45 pm EST Reviews out of Cannes might have been mixed at best, but the images and footage we’ve seen so far from The Skin I Live In, aka the reunion of Pedro Almodovar and Antonio Banderas, are just too weird to allow me to write the film off completely. The film is about experimentation, control, and sex, and at the very least it looks as visually lush as you’d hope to see from a deliberately genre-informed outing from Almodovar....
