CABIN IN THE WOODS Most anticipated 2012 movie (RELEASED 13th April)
After last year’s ‘Mortal Kombat: Rebirth’ trailer, which was made purely to try and get a movie commissioned (it didn’t), the worldwide praise from fans convinced the talented filmmakers to continue the story online. And here are the first three webisodes of the brand-new internet-only series. Go here for new weekly installments. Tweet This Post
‘Thor’ is the only film you need to see this weekend. ‘Insiduous’ features good chills for sixty minutes, but descends into themepark theatrics afterwards. ‘I Saw the Devil’ is for die-hard fans of Korean horror flicks only. ‘Cedar Rapids’ looks fun, but I didn’t receive one single invite to see it (bad PR, Jessica). ‘Tracker’ [...]
After the poor ‘X-Men 3: The Last Stand’ (2006), it seemed likely we may have seen the last of Professor X and sparring partner Magneto.

The Avengers started shooting on Monday 25th April 2011, and it’s hard to imagine that such a massive superhero movie will actually be out in cinemas only one year later (4th May 2012). How are they going to get all the special effects work completed in that time? And does that mean we can expect [...]
