AFM
Horror has always dominated the
American Film Market and 2009 was no exception. And while there was a considerable shortage of titles this year, the overall quality was a huge step up from previous AFMs. I guess there’s something to be said for the lack of over-saturation.
No relation to the awful Mothman Prophecies movie (if you ever read the book, then you know why I just described the film as awful; and if you have never read the book, you should and then you, too, will realize why the film was so lame), Syfy has finally checked off enough other cryptids from its list to make a new film about the Mothman starring a "Firefly".
Kids need their horror, too, and a new animated series being touted at the American Film Market that sounds a little like The Incredibles meets "The Munsters" might be just what the kiddies need. Is "Fang Force" poised to be this generation's "Drak Pack"?
Shoreline Entertainment has recently signed three films by notorious low budget filmmaker Creep Creepersin, just in time for AFM.
One project that's been on our radar for a long while now is the Eli Roth produced possession film Cotton. Now that the first few images of the film have oozed out of AFM, we're even more stoked!
Synopsis
Disillusioned by years of defrauding poor believers of their hard-earned cash, evangelical preacher Cotton Marcus decides to put the record straight by producing a spectacular documentary.
A new promotional trailer for Twisted Pictures' latest foray into revenge and darkness, The Tortured, popped up in time for AFM, and as always we've got you covered for a quick look!
In case you somehow didn't get the message, vampires are hot right now. Extremely hot. Along with the already familiar titles Stake Land and Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl, this year's AFM is home to several other toothsome flicks that are giving their all to jump on The Twilight Saga's sparkly bandwagon.
It's difficult to determine just how horror-oriented a mostly sci-fi sounding project will turn out to be, but since the parties involved in Source Code are Jake Gyllenhaal, Duncan Jones, and Summit Entertainment, we thought it best to provide these latest details to you guys and then keep an eye on things as they progress.
The first image from Joe Maggio's Bitter Feast starring James LeGros for Glass Eye Pix debuted at AFM, and we have it for you served up with a little garnish of gore.
A couple of more stills came out of -- where else? -- the American Film Market in LA this weekend. this time for the toothy thriller starring Danielle Harris, Stake Land.
We lost count of exactly how many sequels there were to the werewolf classic The Howling. The troubled series has seen marsupials, freakshows, and even big-breasted sibling werewolves. Just when you thought it was over, the franchise is reborn!
Takashi Shimizu knows his stuff when it comes to making movies about really creepy ghosts that are pretty pissed off. In his latest film, The Shock Labyrinth, which was shot in 3D, he's taking his trademark pale spookers off of the screen and placing them right in your lap!
Things are definitely heating up at this year's American Film Market, where French zombie flick The Horde has landed distribution in the US and Japan with a Korean deal pending.
Another promotional trailer out of AFM today for you guys to sink your teeth into. Lord knows there's been a lot of them over the last few days. In any event get ready to meet The Killer Inside Me.
More news out of AFM. (How dare it be this busy after the hellish month of October, by the way? Sorry. Just venting.) This time it concerns psychological thriller Cry of the Owl.
