The Burrowers







My initial thought of "the burrowers" was oh god not another Tremors/Pitch Black/The Descent, but after viewing the trailer it looks like the film could have some potential. I'm a fan of the western genre and love when they get the gritty old' west feeling into films rather than a polished studio look. This movie looks to do just that, while adding a little horror in. pretty interested to see how this turns out.

Sukiyaki Western Django


"Famed Japanese auteur Takashi Miike, who is best known for cult classics such as Audition, Ichi: the Killer, and Children of Lost Souls, brings a fresh new look at the beloved spaghetti Western genre in Sukiyaki Western Django. Two clans, Genji, the white clan led by Yoshitsune, and Heike, the red clan led by Kiyomori, battle for a legendary treasure hidden in a poor mountain town. One day a lone gunman, burdened with deep emotional scars but blessed with incredible shooting skills, drifts into town. Expectations reach a boiling point as everyone wonders which gang the gunman will finally decide to join. Dirty tricks, betrayal, desire, and love collide as the situation erupts into a final, explosive showdown." Apple.com/trailers

Really excited for this film, if your expecting a Marvel action packed superhero flick this isnt for you. Considering only one of the "superheros" has any supernatural power.

The International

   
One of my favorite actors Clive Owen, The international reminds me a little of the quantum of Solace trailer. Kinda sounds like a 007 plot too. Looks good Anyway. Due out February.

Fear(s) of the Dark


Thought this looked cool.

The Spirit

The Spirit Artwork
Frank Millers back to bring us another visually stylized ride about a cop who comes back from the dead to fight crime. The movie looks amazing but samual l. jackson is cast as the villian, anything with him attached makes me weary.
