Empire have premiered a new poster and international trailer for Sundance hit Martha Marcy May Marlene, and this really does need to be seen.
How much plot is too much for a movie trailer? The Double answers this rather definitively by spoiling the movie's major plot twist halfway through.
Don't believe me? Head on over to Apple and find out.
Want to see whose faces will be on the big screen over the next few months? Well, look no further. A series of new snaps has been released this week for a number of upcoming big Autumn films, including:
When the director wish list for Die Hard 5 surfaced, which included the likes of Nicolas Winding Refn, Joe Cornish and Justin Lin, I suggested that the least interesting option would be the one to get the job. Lo & behold, I was right: Max Payne director John Moore is in negotiations to direct the next chapter in the life & times of John McClane.
Last year's indie darling Monsters thrust director Gareth Edwards into the spotlight – and secured him the Godzilla gig - showing that amazing CGI need not be the sole preserve of the summer blockbuster, but can be used to great affect in a subtler form of story telling.
Following on from that, this year we have Troll Hunter, most easily described as a fairy-tale version of Monsters told in the now familiar Blair Witch style – lots of dark running through woods and screaming. However, that such a glib summary would be to do the film a disservice – as it in fact offers a fresh spin on a familiar monster-movie motif, all set in sumptuous Scandinavian surroundings.
Ever wondered how X Men’s Mystique looked so good without any CGI?
With the release of X-Men: First Class on DVD and Blu-ray next week (September 9th), Fox have released a behind-the-scenes featurette to show the seven-hour process that Jennifer Lawrence had to go through to look the right shade of blue on-screen.You can watch the transformation here.
The first trailer for Faces In The Crowd has hit the internet and you can check it out here. The film concerns a woman who survives a serial killer's attack. When she awakes from a coma she finds she has a neurological disorder known as "face-blindness" - her ability to recognise faces becomes impaired.
Dogtooth was one of the great oddities of last year, feeling like what would happen if Michael Haneke met George Orwell, a pitch black satire on power and corruption within society with a sadistic streak a mile wide.
Giorgos Lanthimo's follow-up, titled Alps, sounds like an equally strange and uncomfortably hilarious experience. According to Indiewire the plot "concerns a nurse, a paramedic, a gymnast and a coach who have formed a service for hire: They stand in for dead people by appointment at the behest of relatives, friends or colleagues of the deceased. Everyone operates under a disciplined regime demanded by their leader the paramedic, except for the nurse who threatens his rule."
