Motion Picture Purgatory: Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans
December 3rd, 2009
We know it's not exactly horror, but when Trembles speaks, we listen! And when Werner Herzog directs Nicolas Cage, we can't help but watch transfixed.
Here's a quick synopsis of the flick: Terence McDonagh (Cage) is a drug- and gambling-addled detective in post-Katrina New Orleans investigating the killing of five Senegalese immigrants. With a cast that also includes Val Kilmer, Eva Mendes, Jennifer Coolidge, Fairuza Balk, Brad Dourif, and Michael Shannon, what's not to love?

Extended Trailer: Silent Hill: Shattered MemoriesThe PlayStation 2 will get one of its last gasps of horror-filled air in January when Konami's Silent Hill: Shattered Memories debuts on the system along with the PSP. Nintendo Wii owners however only have to wait until next Tuesday. To gear up for this auspicious occasion, we have landed an extended trailer brimming with spookiness and a ridiculous rock song. Dig it!
Creepy, did you get a chance to see it yet?
I am going to try to make time next week in NYC, it is playing at the SUNSHINE. -ALSO- I consider this flick touched with the blessed hand of exploitation, which is horror's sister and sometimes two-headed child. It is NICE to see this covered here.
I like lots of films mostly following the jazz line, of horror, weirdness, violence, dread, disturbing, pain and absurdity, which exists in many genres. This flick, just seems full of win. \M/
