Exclusive Clip From Donkey Punch!

Though it’s hard to take a movie called Donkey Punch too seriously, all the reports I’ve heard about it, including our own review, confirm that it’s anything but goofy, despite the title. This clip goes a helluva long way to proving that!

Official U.S. Donkey Punch Poster and Unrated Trailer

There will never be a time that I don't take every opportunity to use the words "Donkey Punch" in a headline on our site! Thank god for movie titles, eh?

U.S. Poster for Donkey Punch

Wow, that is just a really bad poster. No offense to Magnolia, but the UK poster for Donkey Punch was a helluva lot more appealing than this one, which Fangoria got their hands on yesterday.

    Magnet Unleashes Six Shooter Films

    Magnet Films, the genre branch of Magnolia Pictures, have officially released the theatrical series they’re calling Six Shooter Films, ”six films from the vanguard of quality worldwide genre cinema”.

    New Site for Punching Donkeys!

    The official site for Oliver Blackburn's murderous boating holiday, Donkey Punch, just opened up. What lies within could contain spoilers, but brave adventurers into the open sea will find new videos, pics, music and even free merchandise!

    Who Wants a Donkey Punch?

    Yachts + drugs + sexy girls never equals a fun time. Trust me. You'd think everything would be fine, but there's always that one dude who has to screw it up for the rest of us and at least one person gets dumped overboard to meet Davey Jones.

    Two Clips from Donkey Punch

    I am still not exactly sure why the Magnet Releasing title Donkey Punch is named so. The film's description (luxury yachting gone wrong) sure didn't give me any clues, but who cares now that we've got clips!

    Magnolia Takes a Donkey Punch

    Few things make me smile more than being able to use the term Donkey Punch on our website and have it be news. It's fun to write, and it's even more fun to say. Look at the person next to you and try it ... donkey punch. See what I mean?

    The Horrors of Sundance

    Honestly, traveling to Utah has never crossed my mind for any reason. It's just hard to have a passing thought of, "Hey! I should go to Utah because..." That was until STYD released a list of 11 horror and thriller movies that will be shown at next year's Sundance Film Festival.

    Blackburn, Olly (Donkey Punch)

    Interview by: Johnny Butane It’s never easy making your first movie, or so I’ve been told. But imagine if you decide to make your first movie in an unpredictable environment, in closed quarters, and full of sex and violence. A daunting task, for sure, but one director Olly Blackburn was more than willing to take head on. The result is Donkey Punch, which Magnolia is releasing in theaters today as part of their Six Shooter Film series. I had the chance to chat with Olly about the movie (twice, but that’s a story for another time) and found out just what went into its creation. Use the links below to give it a listen, and make sure you track down Donkey Punch in a theater near you! Don’t forget to VOTE FOR US ON PODCAST ALLEY!
