Psychosis is about a horror novelist, Susan (Charisma Carpenter), relocates with her husband to a stunning English mansion. All settled in she begins seeing visions of a horrible massacre that happened 15 years earlier. Frantic to prove she isn’t losing her mind, Susan must uncover the secrets behind the massacre or risk becoming a casualty herself.

I hope you find this poster creepy enough for Halloween.  No words as to when the movie will be released, but still enjoy the creepy poster.

Ohhhhh boy.

Folks, I’m going to advise you up front, what you’re about to see will be disturbing.

Because what you’re about to see may well involve greed on a level so blatant as to rival Enron.  You’re about to see the characters from the horrendous Twilight saga used to hawk Vitamin Water from Sobe.

You can find the ad directly below–I’ve brought it in from YouTube, where I found it in the first place–and watch all you like.  It is downright horrifying.

Oh, sure, the marketeer in me sees this as a great idea to hawk overpriced water to a bunch of tweenagers who are more than happy to plunk down mommy and daddy’s money to get their hands on this crap because they saw it in New Moon or whatever.  But the normal human being in me, the part that hasn’t been infected by marketing, understands that this is a godawful use of licensed characters to hawk product.

And that just cheapens us all.

SpyNextDoor_1Sht_Fin#2894D0

I just received the one-sheet for The Spy Next Door starring Jackie Chan and Amber Valetta. However, yesterday you may have noticed that I posted the trailer for The Spy Next Door. I wanted to post the one-sheet as well, but had difficulty opening the file provided for the one-sheet. That said, I’m posting the a one-sheet now for you to enjoy.

The Spy Next Door hits theaters January 15, 2010! 

The story is about a spy (Chan) who is babysitting his neighbor’s children. He is a mild-mannered guy, who winds up having to fight off secret agents after one of the kids his is babysitting inadvertently downloads a secret code.

Paranormal Activity movie is everywhere now because you folks demanded it. Well Done!  Here is the latest movie trailer to promote the wide-release of the movie. The trailer is short, and it doesn’t seem as scary as the others, perhaps it’s the pie of lemon meringue pie I had for desert, I don’t know.

Serious Moonlight movie trailer does not give this movie justice.  We have some talented actors here, but the movie is not coming together in its trailer.

The story is about a high-powered lawyer named Louise (Meg Ryan) arrives at her country home for a romantic weekend getaway, things don’t go exactly as planned. First, her husband of 13 years, Ian (Timothy Hutton), tells her that he’s leaving her for a younger woman (Kristen Bell).

Then, one thing leads to another, and pretty soon Ian finds himself held captive by an oddly cool Louise who explains that she won’t release him until he professes his love for her and commits to working on their marriage. And that’s when things start to go wrong.

The unexpected arrival of an opportunistic young gardener (Justin Long) and Ian’s impatient mistress only serve to complicate the crisis even further, while somehow forcing Louise and Ian to reckon with their past and realistically deal with their future.

The movie opens December 4, 2009.

daybreakers-fullsizefinalnew-poster

Daybreakers, a vampire movie, debuted today on MTV. The moviestars Ethan Hawke and Willem Dafoe.  Take a closer look at the poster, the details and design is very futuristic. Even though the thought of what is going on in the poster is horrific, it is a work of art.

The story takes place in the year 2019; a plague has transformed almost every human into vampires. Placed in a cultural situation with a dwindling blood supply, the vampire government plots their survival while vampire researcher (Hawke) works with a covert band of vampires (Defoe) to find a way to save humankind.

Australian brothers Michael and Peter Spierig directed the film, which was completely shot in Australia in late 2007 and has been in post-production since. Lionsgate brings Daybreakers to theaters on January 8, 2010.

Another puzzle has surfaced for Saw VI! Put together the pieces and get an exclusive peek at the film!  The horrific movie opens October 23, 2009.

The Lovely Bones is Peter Jackson’s next movie after King Kong of four years ago. So I am happy to see Jackson behind the camera again and even bold enough to take on another genre.  Lovely Bones is a smaller movie based on a novel about a young girl who, indirectly, helps solve her own murder.

The story is a supernatural thriller, which the trailer contains plot spoilers.

The movie has some great actors, just read the poster and you’ll see.

Final One Sheet

This one-sheet for Pirate Radio is hilarious, I love it. If anyone was around during the time when producers took over the radio airwaves and became independent of the conservative suits, you know if was a great time for radio – longer songs on the airwaves and wild activities, bringing the next generation out of control.

Pirate Radio is the high-spirited story of how 8 DJs love affair with Rock n Roll changed the world forever. In the 1960s this group of rouge DJs, on a boat in the middle of the Northern Atlantic, played rock records and broke the law all for the love of music.

The songs they played united and defined an entire generation and drove the British government crazy. By playing Rock n Roll they were standing up against the British government who did everything in their power to shut them down. The band of rebels is lead by The Count, played by the Academy Award Winning Philip Seymour Hoffman, Quentin the boss of Radio Rock, Gavin the greatest DJ in Britain, Midnight Mark, Doctor Dave and Young Carl who comes of age amidst the chaos of sex, drugs and rock n roll.

The film features an unbelievable selection of music including The Beatles, The Stones, Beach Boys, Dusty Springfield, The Who, Jimi Hendrix, Smokey Robinson, David Bowie, Otis Redding, Cat Stevens just to name a few. The film is laugh out loud funny and speaks to the rock n roll rebel in all of us.  I’d love to have this soundtrack!

Richard Curtis is the director.  Does his name sound familiar?  Of course, he directed Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill and Love Actually.

Two people I know rave about An Education, a Lone Sherfig ’s  film.  They saw the movie last June and still talk about how it gets them thinking more and more about the two main characters Jenny and David  played brilliantly by Carey Mulligan and Peter Sarsgaard.  Thus, I am drawn into the film as well and have done a couple of posts about the movie.

An Education won two awards at the Cannes Film Festival 2009:  Audience Award, World Cinema Dramatic Competition and Cinematography Award, World Cinema Dramatic Competition.

My friends strongly believe that both actors will be apart of the Oscar conversations that start rolling out about now.  One even believes SAG will give the movie an Ensemble Cast nod.

All in all, it is a movie worth seeing if it comes to your town. It opens on a limited release October 18, 2009.

Meanwhile…

Screenhead has An Education movie poster, like the one to your right,  available as a giveaway.  Please post your name and we will pick the winner October 27, 2009.
