The star of the upcoming flick Jonah Hex said his sex scene with brunette stunner Megan Fox was quite awkard.
In the movie, Brolin plays gun-slinging Jonah Hex, who has to wear a prosthetic face. Each morning, he spent three hours every day having his mouth pulled back and stuck with gaffer tape for the prosthetics and a mouthpiece to be fitted.
Megan, on the other hand, plays a hot hooker named Leila who falls in love with the masked man. However, Brolin says, “It was tough to figure out how to kiss with that thing on.”
And their love scenes were even more difficult. “To be honest, it was uncomfortable; those scenes are uncomfortable,” he said. “It was especially uncomfortable because I had this thing on my face.”

Best known for their backing of extreme splatter films Machine Girl and Tokyo Gore Police Fever Dreams are about to dip their toes into another part of the Japanese cult film pool with Tomoo Haraguchi’s upcoming kaiju film Death Kappa. And, yes, Haraguchi has turned everybody’s favorite friendly little turtle spirit into a fearsome giant killer.
Don’t know Haraguchi’s name? You probably know his work. The man has done effects work for the likes of Kore-Eda (Air Doll) and Tsukamoto (Bullet Ballet) while designing creature effects for high profile films like Ashura and Uzumaki and you want kaiju cred? How about a bit of Gamera? This man knows his stuff, no doubt about it.
And while Haraguchi is still relatively early in the production of his latest directorial effort he has already put together an introductory promo that showcases both the miniature sets that will be used as well as the creature itself. And, yes, kaiju fans – this will be all old-school style: men in rubber suits and miniature buildings with not a digital effect to be found.
District 9 is an upcoming science fiction film produced by Peter Jackson, set for an August 14th release date and will be distributed by Sony’s Tristar Pictures.
It takes place in Johannesburg, South Africa; aliens made first contact with Earth twenty-eight years prior while humanity waited for the hostile attack or for giant advances in technology, though neither came. Instead, the aliens that arrived were refugees, the last survivors of their home world. The creatures were set up in a makeshift home in South Africa’s District 9 as the world’s nations argued over what to do with them. Patience over the alien situation ran out and control over them was contracted out to Multi-National United (MNU), a private company uninterested in the aliens’ welfare.
MNU stands to receive tremendous profits if they can make the aliens’ advanced weaponry work, but have failed because it requires alien DNA. Tension between the aliens and the humans comes to a head when an MNU field operative, Wikus van der Merwe (Sharlto Copley), contracts a mysterious virus that begins changing his DNA. Wikus quickly becomes the most hunted man in the world, as well as the most valuable, for he is the key to unlocking the secrets of alien technology. Van der Merwe becomes ostracized and friendless and hides amongst the creatures locked within District 9.
