Mayhem master/bird wrangler John Woo has been working for almost a year (when he doesn’t get distracted with videogames and remakes of French New Wave cinema) putting together his historical film The Battle of Red Cliff, and he’s finally starting to gather humans to fill the ranks. We’d heard last year that the great Chow … Continue reading

Our zombie combo contest (more details HERE) has come to a close, and drew a staggering amount of responses. Contestants were required to answer these two questions: 1. Besides the mall, where’s the best place to go when the dead start rising from the grave? 2. Without having actually tasted them yet (one hopes), who … Continue reading
Second-hand smoke really does kill. At least when it has hook-handed specters contained within. In the remake of John Carpenter’s 1980 weather-horror flick The Fog, an angry cloud of billowing mist descends upon a small California island community and attacks good-looking people like Tom Welling (Smallville), Maggie Grace (Lost) and Selma Blair (Hellboy). This mysterious … Continue reading

Universal’s subsection Focus Features (under which is genre arm Rogue Pictures, who astutely brought Shaun of the Dead stateside) is getting into the animation racket with a bizarro flick simply known as 9. The feature-length movie will be directed by Shane Acker, who created the freaky short film on which it’s based. Though entirely computer-generated, … Continue reading
While writer-director Sebastian Gutierrez and stars Lucy Liu and Michael Chiklis (interviews HERE, HERE and HERE) were occupied with actually shooting scenes during my visit to the set of the Ghost House horror-thriller Rise, I shot the breeze with the man behind the scenes, producer Greg Shapiro (also of Harold & Kumar Go To White … Continue reading
I sort of have to question the wisdom of releasing a trailer about a futuristic film involving terrorism in England during a time when the London of now is under siege by the same, but I suppose when you’ve got a movie to promote, there’s nothing for it. At any rate, the trailer for the … Continue reading
Disney’s Ice Princess isn’t an obvious kind of film that might catch the interest of CHUD’s general readership. Don’t get me wrong, it certainly has elements that I find appealing. But my own proclivities aside, even Devin gave the film a favorable review (READ IT HERE) and he’s not even really a perv. The movie … Continue reading
