Edgar Wright’s Last Night in Soho Could Be the Giallo Horror We Wanted from Suspiria

New DVD releasecould, edgar, giallo, horror, night, wanted, wright

The new trailer for Edgar Wright’s Last Night in Soho begins with Thomasin McKenzie staring at a marquee billboard for Sean Connery’s fifth James Bond movie, Thunderball. For both her and audiences, it immediately lets us know we’ve been transported into a distant—and often romanticized—past. Yet instead of Bond, the actual tone of auteur Wright’s new film evokes an entirely different style: one as trippy as the fractured image of Anya Taylor-Joy staring back at McKenzie in the mirror. Last Night in Soho has been the long anticipated and mysterious thriller Wright and Focus Features have been teasing out for…

Why Zack Snyder Wanted a Clean Slate with Army of the Dead

Netflix, New DVD releaseclean, slate, snyder, wanted

Zack Snyder has come home. After spending a large portion of the past decade immersed in the DC film universe—even more if you count the development and production of Watchmen, his third film, a few years before that—Snyder has returned to the genre that launched his career as a feature film director. That genre is horror, more specifically the subgenre of zombie movies, and the film is called Army of the Dead. Premiering on Netflix after a brief theatrical run, Army of the Dead is only the second movie of Snyder’s career not produced and distributed through Warner Bros. Pictures.…

Zack Snyder Wanted to Make a Batman vs. Joker Movie After Justice League

New DVD releaseafter, batman, joker, justice, movie, snyder, wanted

What’s more controversial? Zack Snyder’s vision of the DC Universe as expressed in Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and which he will finally complete with the release of “The Snyder Cut” of Justice League in March…or Jared Leto’s tattooed-and-grilled gangster interpretation of the Joker in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad? Don’t answer that, we’re not looking to start that fight yet again. And yet, the debate rages on. And it’s a debate that will be once again opened up when Zack Snyder’s Justice League arrives on HBO Max in March. Snyder has filmed brand new footage…

Steve McQueen’s Small Axe: ‘I Wanted These Stories to Go Through the Bloodstream of the Country’

New DVD releasemcqueen, small, steve, stories, these, through, wanted

If there’s a sense of planetary alignment in the timing of Steve McQueen’s Small Axe – five films about London’s West Indian community airing weekly from this Sunday on BBC One – it’s not by design. Over a decade in the making, the creators couldn’t have known that these stories would land in a year marked by both the global Black Lives Matter protests sparked by the murder of George Floyd, and the disproportionately devastating impact of Covid-19 on black communities in the UK.  The collision of 2020’s events with five stories celebrating black British history feels fortuitous to the cast. “The…

New DVD releasebatman, favorite, keaton, michael, murdering, still, wanted

Michael Keaton appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live earlier this week to talk about his work in The Trial of the Chicago 7 as well as plans for him to reprise his role as Batman in Andy Muschietti’s in-development The Flash movie. While Keaton declined to say much about donning the cape and cowl once again to mentor Ezra Miller’s young Barry Allen in the DCEU film — beyond confirming that he’s “having discussions” with Warner Bros. — he did sound off on another very important topic. Since The Flash is set to feature not just one Batman from the franchise’s…

Matthew Vaughn Wanted to Cast Daredevil’s Charlie Cox as Superman

New DVD releasecharlie, daredevil, matthew, superman, vaughn, wanted

Daredevil star Charlie Cox was on Matthew Vaughn’s mind back in 2008 when he found himself on the list that Warner Bros and DC had drawn up for possible directors to pair with their new Superman movie. Though the powers that be eventually chose Zack Snyder to helm what would end up being Man of Steel, and Henry Cavill to star in it, Vaughn was understandably excited about what he could bring to the project, and one of those things could have very well been his Stardust leading man. In a new interview, Vaughn’s frequent collaborator Mark Millar has been…

Rent It Nickelodeon's 2012 revamp of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is slowly winding down after five seasons of action and adventure, and the show's been much better than its treatment on DVD thus far. With only one or two stretches of below-average episodes to its name, TMNT has done an excellent job of appealing to old and new fans alike with a strong mixture of comedy, action, danger, and no shortage of drama during some of the series' darker moments. It's been a fun rid...Read the entire review
