Movie Review: ROMEO’S DISTRESS a Prime Example of Micro Budget Brilliance.

“Nothing takes the taste out of peanut butter quite like unrequited love.” – Charles M. Schulz Let’s face it, unrequited love is a real son-of-a-bitch! It’s like being stabbed in the heart with a dagger, made of pure love and emotion, all the way to the hilt and broken off in your chest…or something like that. It may be different for some, but I digress. James is an unorthodox young man, who takes care of his loony old grandmother. He also likes photography and hanging out in the cemetery, while sometimes singing little ditties about a “cheesecake of love”. He’s also a young man who fully understands the aforementioned concept of unrequited love, because he too is afflicted. The object of his desires is a beautiful young woman named Jane. And while James hasn’t directly expressed this to her, it’s anyone’s guess as to whether Jane is privy to his feelings for her or how deeply said feelings run. However,

While in America, she met and married fellow German immigrant Philip Hahn. After this marriage, she was reunited with her son. Anna, however was not the doting mother that fairy tales are made of.

IT’ Producer Drops Character Photos Of The Losers. Trailer Coming Soon?

We may have a trailer to watch within the next day or so for the newest adaption of Stephen King’s IT. This assumption comes after IT producer Barbara Muschietti, dropped a series of post on Instagram featuring photos from the set of the film featuring Jaeden Wesley, Chosen Jacobs, Jack D. Grazer, Jeremy Ray Taylor, Wyatt Oleff, Sophia Lillis and Finn Wolfhard in character as the Losers clan (fans of the Stephen King adaption and novel would know I’m referring to the Loser Club, a club formed by the characters as a way of joining together all misfits). [Related: Take A Walk Through Derry With These New Shots From The IT Remake] Below you’ll find a series of screen-shots I took from Muschietti’s Instagram page featuring the actors and their assigned roles in hashtag.

Tremors VI Has Begun Filming

We reported earlier in January that ‘Tremors VI’ was set to begin filming. It has now begun. Earlier today Michael Gross, who stars as graboid hunter/gun enthusiast Burt Gummer, shaved his head and trimmed his mustache, a tradition he has performed before each of the ‘Tremors’ movies filmed its first scene. Jamie Kennedy, who co-starred as Burt’s son in ‘Tremors V: Blood Lines’, will be returning along with director Don Michael Paul for ‘Tremors VI’ which will be filming in Cape Town, South Africa. So far, only two other cast members have officially been announced, Tanya van Graan (Death Race: Inferno) and Greg Kriek (Blood and Glory). One interesting thing about the movie is that while Kevin Bacon starred in the original film and will be headlining the ‘Tremors’ television series, he will not be appearing in ‘Tremors VI’. Hopefully the plot will be announced soon. We will keep you posted as more details are revealed.
