Ethan Hawke, Sam Neill and Willem Dafoe star in a damn cool looking new vampire flick set in a world where pretty much everyone is a vampire. With humans being farmed for blood, and the supply dwindling, they need to come up with a new food source or else...
A fine looking trailer. Hopefully the movie delivers. It's directed by the Spierig brothers who brought us the decent low-budget Undead a few years back. It'll be interesting to see what they do with some money and a big name cast.
The original[REC] was a ton of white-knuckled fun (as was the decent US remake Quarantine). Although the sequel looks quite similar it appears they have upped the ante in terms of number of infected and the fire-power to fight them.
Great pick! I've always liked this film and I don't think it's ever really gotten its due.
Is it a masterpiece? Hell no. It's just a damn good monster movie that delivers exactly what it promises. Goofy dialog, a big nasty critter to fight and just enough gore to keep it interesting. Fun stuff.
As rumors go it's a fun one for sure. Of course she's probably the most in-demand actress in her age range at the moment - so her plate is most likely pretty full.
Hopefully she's a Buffy fan...
Thanks for the encouraging news about her comedic potential - you've got me sold!
I didn't actually hate this one. It was pretty much exactly what the ads promised. Not that they promised much.
Typical dumb Statham film. Just fun enough to hold my attention for 90 minutes.
What I don't understand with many of these remakes is how they can totally miss the social satire of the originals. Rollerball has to be the biggest offender here - not only missing the point of the original - but actually becoming exactly the kind of junk "entertainment" that the Jewison version was warning against. Sad.
As for the PG-13 rating - yeah, it's damn near impossible to make a decent horror film with that rating; at least the kind that I like. I suppose some ghost-stories like The Changeling might have been a PG-13, but they're not really my thing.
The only one I think of that I really enjoyed, aside from the two you mentioned, was Gremlins. But, that said, it would have been much better with the R-rating the script intended.
