Originally released in 1996, Hideo Nakata scored one of his earliest genre hits with his tale of a ghostly presence disrupting and terrorizing the crew of a horror-film shoot attempting to complete a troubled movie. The original “Don’t Look Up” emerged as a dry-run for Nakata’s next project, the celebrated “Ringu” and featured many of the same elements that would be honed to perfection in that adaptaton. Over a decade later, Fruit Chan took his talents to America to helm this remake with a bevy of then up-and-coming talent, as well as securing the service of producer/actor Eli Roth, to attempt to do justice to this version, even if he misses the mark quite often with his version.

Here's a question: is fear more tangible when you cannot see what it is you are supposed to be frightened of? For example, where does the horror really lie? Does it lie in the monster that's about to eat you, or how the darkness in the room forbids you from seeing it? Trick question. The real horror is movies like Don't Look Up that take this notion and hack it to death with a dull knife.
Horror movies have such terrific potential for being memorable; fear is probably the most powerful emotion, and when a film can successfully exploit it, the audience will go home and have trouble sleeping soundly. A person might refuse to watch said horror movie a second time; not because it is a poorly made film, but for the exact opposite reason.
The main players in Don't Look Up would probably agree; they themselves are filmmakers.

Don.t Look Up is a remake of a 1996 film that covered the same horrific ground. This time the results don.t gel together though and seem a missed opportunity. In the 1920s, Director Bella Olt (Eli Roth) went to Transylvania to shoot a film about a gypsy legend in the area in which the legend is supposed to have occurred. Olt vanished along with the footage he shot and was never heard from again. Only some production stills survived. In the present day, director Marcus (Reshad Strik) drew inspiration from that lone still in a movie magazine. He.s also prone to having seizures that seem to make him clairvoyant. His friend and producer John (Henry Thomas) has...

Two From Powell/Pressburger Criterion releases gorgeous new transfers of two of the greatest films to come out of post-war Britain, from that period’s greatest filmmaking team: Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. Black Narcissus was originally released in 1947 and caused a sensation with its explosive story about a nun (Deborah Kerr), cloistered in a remote convent in the Himalayas, who must battle elements both external (the punishing weather) and internal (temptations of the flesh over duty to the spirit). Also features stellar turns by England’s greatest actresses at the time: Flora Robson, Kathleen Byron and a young Jean Simmons. One of the most dazzling films ever made, bolstered by Oscar-winning cinematography from Jack Cardiff.

Larry411 and I were busy exchanging tweets early today. Our topic - Australian actor Xavier Samuel, who will play Riley on the 3rd installment of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. I find this character quite interesting, to say the least.

- - - The wiki on Twilight characters has the following about Riley:
As a vampire, Riley is tall and muscular with bright red eyes and blond hair. Victoria bites and changes Riley when he is approximately Bella's age in Eclipse. Once Riley ages and gains some control, he helps to lead Victoria's army of newborn vampires. He performs his work faithfully because of his love for Victoria, which she pretends to return. However, in a battle between the army of newborns and the Cullens at the end of Eclipse, Edward voices Riley's concern that Victoria has been lying to him. [ read more ]
There is something tragic about the character.

One project we haven't heard a whole hell of a lot about lately is Fruit Chan’s English-language debut, the remake of Hideo Nakata’s Don’t Look Up. Things seem to be moving along nicely though because a still has surfaced that dishes out the violence by the eye-full!
DC reader JoseK just sent us in the still you see below, which pretty much speaks for itself. Don't Look Up starring Henry Thomas, Kevin Corrigan, Lothaire Bluteau, Carmen Chaplin, Reshad Strik, and Eli Roth will be playing at The Sitges Film Festival. More soon!

A couple of years ago there was an Australian film called Tan Lines. It was a fairly dreadful look at homosexuality and Aussie surf culture, a thoroughly interesting topic I might like to add, that treated its queer topic with a strange pitched level of surprising earnestness and poor execution and unrealistic storytelling. It was further hampered by amateur acting and bad writing. It did, however, provide endless opportunities for queer audiences to fawn over shirtless male bodies (although their age sure was cringe-worthy at times) and that seems to be about the maximum depth you will find in many Glbt-themed movies.
Another Australian film that wades through similar territory, released late in 2008, was Dan Castle's Newcastle, which is a far more successful - and yet, at times, just as frustrating - attempt at the surfer-via-homos theme. While the queer angle is clearly not the film's prime reason for existing,...

Venue: Sydney Film Festival
Sun-drenched and hormonally charged, the Australian surf movie "Newcastle" boasts an almost fetishistic amount of teenage skin. But dramatically it's a wipe out. Its musty dysfunctional-family storyline stands in stark contrast to the breezy fun of the visuals, although there's a hint of freshness in the casual integration of a gay teen.
Cinematographer Richard Michalak's gorgeous water-based action shots guarantee the young target audience will want to head straight out for surf lessons, but there's even less dramatic heft here than in the superior "Blue Crush".
The addition of a couple of beach babes to the testosterone-heavy cast of unknowns should lift commercial prospects when "Newcastle" is released domestically later in the year, ensuring there really is something for everyone in the way of eye candy.
Jesse (Lachlan Buchanan) is a particularly sulky teen who lives in the industrial city of Newcastle, a coastal paradise marred only by the coal tankers squatting on the horizon.
He sees victory in the upcoming Junior Surf Pro as a way of avoiding the fate that befell his bad-boy older brother Victor (Reshad Strik, ) a once-promising surfer now bitter divorced dad working on one of the ships.
An early setback provides the perfect excuse for a diversionary weekend away, so Jesse and his buddies round up some local girls and head for a remote beach to camp in the dunes.
Jesse's embarrassed to be joined by his emo twin brother Fergus (Xavier Samuels), who is self-consciously grappling with his sexuality, but all is soon forgotten in a wild spree of youthful flirting, surfing and horseplay.
Writer-director Dan Castle, making his feature debut, is mostly content to let the good times roll along in this fashion, rudely interrupted by a rogue wave and a tragedy, before winding things up with a classic sports-film cliche.
With its erratic pubescent mood swings, "Newcastle" is like an Antipodean episode of "The O.C"., albeit with big-screen production values and photography so tactile you can almost feel the saltwater on your skin.
Production companies: Film Finance Corporation Australia, IFF/CINV and Newcastle Pictures, in association with 3 Dogs & a Pony and Shadowfire Entertainment.
