The first trailer for Breck Eisner’s remake of George Romero’s 70s plague classic, The Crazies, has finally landed online. In a terrifying tale of the American Dream gone wrong, four friends find themselves trapped in their hometown when an unknown toxin turns the citizens into homicidal maniacs. A small-town sheriff David Dutton (Tommy Olyphant) tries to maintain law and order while protecting his pregnant wife, Judy (Radha Mitchell); Becca (Danielle Panabaker), an assistant at the medical center; and Russell (Joe Anderson), Dutton’s deputy and right-hand man. Forced to band together, an ordinary night becomes a struggle for survival as they try to get out of town alive.
The scheduled release date for the remake is February 26, 2010.

With only a teaser trailer and a poster released for Saw VI, not much has been revealed about the latest sequel in the horror franchise, other than screenwriter Patrick Melton saying the movie will feel “resolved.”
It’s probably safe to assume that death traps are involved, as the first image of Saw VI reveals.
Saw VI opens October 23 and stars Costas Mandylor as Detective Hoffman, who has become the successor to Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) and sets a new game in motion as the FBI closes in on him. Shawnee Smith and Tanedra Howard co-star.

Lost in all the news of the major networks’ summer decline and the struggles of the pay channels and the ongoing soap operas of the endless reality shows is the news that Burn Notice is very quietly becoming a major ratings player on cable.
What originally looked like a silly, self-referential genre show tucked in after wrestling on the USA Network, Burn Notice is one of the biggest hits on cable. It doesn’t get the critical love of Mad Men, but it has a lot of fans.
According to a USA press release, the show’s August airings are burning down nine million viewers at a pop — making it the period’s most watch scripted episodic on cable.
It’s now USA’s most-watched original series ever with 9.1 million viewers during August episodes — the first time a USA original series has broken the nine million viewers benchmark.
World Wrestling Entertainment’s Monday Night RAW is still the network’s most-watched show, but that’s a two-hour live event — a very different animals. Burn Notice is a scripted hour drama, and it’s bringing in numbers that would rival the major networks hits and humble all of their flops.
It’ll be interesting to see what USA does with its franchise here. It should work well in syndication. But could it make a modest jump to the big screen? A long shot maybe, but so was bringing in nine million viewers.

These days, vampires are almost as prevalent as the mirrors they never cast a reflection in. True Blood, Twilight, Lestat, Underworld, The Vampire Diaries, Cirque du Freak, Priest,
Malcolm McDowell
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter… They’re everywhere. However, while we might be inclined to knock any new film that tries to jump onto the pile, we can’t really fault any horror indies. Vamps have always thrived in that realm; it’s their home turf.
So you might remember that last year, I wrote about a little Canadian horror comedy called Suck and its interesting cast list — Jessica Pare, Malcolm McDowell, Dave Foley, Iggy Pop, Moby, Alice Cooper, Carol Pope, and Henry Rollins. The film has since wrapped, is heading to TIFF next month (hat tip to MTV), and you can check out a trailer for the bloodletting after the jump. The brainchild of Rob Stefaniuk (of Phil the Alien fame), Suck focuses on a struggling band who finally finds success when the leader’s (Stefaniuk) ex gf and bandmate Jennifer (Pare) becomes a vampire rife with “sexually charged charisma that drives the audiences wild.”
McDowell co-stars as Eddie Van Helsing — a one-eyed vamp hunter who’s afraid of the dark, while Foley plays their manager, Pop plays a music producer, Cooper plays a bartender, and Rollins plays “Rock’n Roger” — a radio dude with terrible hair. That alone has me sold. Heck,
Jessica Paré
McDowell with a flashlight to “keep the dark away” is gold just on its own. But just to sweeten the pot some more, the film’s full of songs like David Bowie’s “Here Come’s the Night” and The Rolling Stones’ “Sympathy for the Devil.”

Vanessa Hudgens has admitted that she was “freaked out” by co-star Alex Pettyfer’s appearance in their new movie Beastly.
The High School Musical star appears alongside Pettyfer in the Manhattan-based high school retelling of classic fairytale Beauty And The Beast.
Speaking to MTV News, she said: “It was crazy, I saw the picture [of his 'Beast' make-up] for like a millisecond and then I was like, ‘Oh no, I can’t look!’

“I waited until I got to see him in person and it moved me in a really weird and peculiar way. It’s so mind blowing the prosthetics they’ve done on him. He changes as a complete person. I was freaked out, honestly.”
Beastly tells the story of a transfer student (Mary-Kate Olsen) who curses a handsome boy (Pettyfer) so that his appearance becomes hideously disfigured. Hudgens plays a beautiful girl who is sent to live with his family.

If there’s one movie you absolutely must have on Blu-Ray this year, it has to be Watchmen. Just imagine those glowing blues of Dr. Manhattan popping off your television, or the dark, film noir shadows lurking on your screen as Rorschach stalks the streets of your disc. You’ve gotta have it.
It arrives both on Blu-Ray and DVD as a 2-disc Special Edition Director’s Cut in just a few weeks on July 21st. Warner Bros. has given us a sneak peek at just some of what you can expect loaded onto this disc, with a series of clips showcasing some of the film’s behind the scenes features along with flat out badass scenes that you won’t be able to live without seeing again.
