Starring: Robert Kerman, Francesca Ciardi Directed by: Ruggero Deodato Buy it from Amazon here! The tagline for this is "The Most Controversial Movie Ever Made." and with the possible exception of the Guinea Pig movies, it’s probably true.

The poker craze can’t be stopped! Everyone’s playing Texas Hold ‘Em, there are a bunch of poker-themed movies in development, and anyone who guest-starred on Pacific Blue is qualified for Celebrity Poker.

Kaye also hasn’t made a … Continue reading →

Sometimes the Graboid will be very easy and sometimes it’ll be … Continue reading →

He’s closing out his “vengeance trilogy” with Sympathy for Lady Vengeance … Continue reading →
Danny and Oxide Pang are probably best known for their ocular terror film The Eye and its sequel, but their real breakthrough was the off-kilter action flick Bangkok Dangerous, about a deaf-mute hitman. They’re heading back in that direction with their next project, though they’re not leaving the macabre completely behind. The Pang Brothers will … Continue reading →
Since we probably won’t be seeing any more Project Greenlight, which is a bloody shame since it provided such a great behind-the-scenes peek at the filmmaking process (and some fascinating cringe-inducing melodrama), the folks behind that show have more time to focus on their own movies. Frazzled producer Chris Moore is producing an action flick … Continue reading →
