The Baxter is a really sweet little movie. It has a premise so great you have to wonder why it hasn’t been done before: In every romantic comedy, one of the two leads will be about to commit to/marry someone when the other lead will burst in and win the day. So what happens to the … Continue reading
I wish I could make a Peter Frampton reference in every piece I write for CHUD.com. The Flash area of the web site for the new Tim Burton stop-motion film, The Corpse Bride, is up and running, and it’s pretty damn cool. It’s got all kinds of downloads and clips and stuff, and there are … Continue reading
Fat Albert, nooooooooo! What you see above is one of the first official images to be released from the masterpiece of the 21st century, Snakes on a Plane. Blackfilm.com has a couple more, but this is the one that features the most snakes that are obviously on a plane. If you thought that CHUD.com pushed … Continue reading

Update. Eileen here and I just got from Lions Gate the replacement poster and you know what? Devin is right about this being a stunt because the new poster is practically the same. Now we have two large fingers minus the severed part (which only took up a tenth of the original poster and was in black and white) … Continue reading
Halle Berry and Bruce Willis starring in a big screen updating of the seminal sitcom, Perfect Strangers. Think about the money you could make on that one. That movie just sells itself. Sadly, that’s not the movie they’ve signed up to star in – it’s missing one crucial “s,” making it a psychological thriller by … Continue reading
Hopless Pictures is part of IFC’s new "Deranged" block of Friday night programming, debuting tonight. It also includes an all new Greg The Bunny as well as a mockumentary series called The Festival.

In the film a mysterious epidemic is affecting the behavior of people, and Washington DC psychiatrist Kidman finds out that the virus comes from outer space. The film began … Continue reading
