A ‘Maneater’ Is Swimming Your Way This Week (Trailer)

This August, dive into Saban Films’ shark thriller Maneater, from writer-director Justin Lee, which follows a group of friends on a getaway faced with a man-eating shark. “What better place to drown your sorrows than an idyllic island paradise?

Their sorrows weren’t the only thing going to drown on their trip, especially with a man-eating shark swimming just below the surface.” The action-packed survival film stars Nicky Whelan (Halloween II), musician/actor Trace Adkins (I Can Only Imagine), Jeff Fahey (“Lost”), and Shane West (Escape the Field). Maneater swims into theaters, on to Digital, and On Demand on August 26, 2022, from Saban Films.

‘Three Thousand Years Of Longing’ Conjures A New Clip & A Featurette

Your wish is our command, especially if your wish is to watch the new clip and featurette from Three Thousand Years of Longing, starring Idris Elba and Tilda Swinton. In the film directed by George Miller (Mad Max) who co-wrote the film with Augusta Gore, “Dr. Alithea Binnie (Tilda Swinton) is an academic – content with life and a creature of reason. While in Istanbul attending a conference, she happens to encounter a Djinn (Idris Elba) who offers her three wishes in exchange for his freedom. This presents two problems. First, she doubts that he is real and second, because she is a scholar of story and mythology, she knows all the cautionary tales of wishes gone wrong.

Movie Review: 'Orphan: First Kill'

Movie Review: ‘Orphan: First Kill’

I’ll admit, when I first learned that a prequel was in the works for the unforgettable and utterly unnerving movie Orphan, I was skeptical on many levels. Now that it’s out today, I can give you my two cents. I was wondering how director William Brent Bell would pull off transforming a now 13 year older Isabelle Fuhrman into an even younger Esther than in the 2009 horror. The answer, a de-aging program, makeup and lighting. Unfortunately, all the special effects just didn’t do the job. The character looks much older in First Kill than she did in the first movie. Which isn’t good seeing that First Kill is meant to be set years prior to the original. Warning mild spoilers! In First Kill we are introduced to the family previous to the one in Orphan. After escaping an asylum, Fuhrman’s character picks a child on a missing persons website and sets out to steal her identity and her family.

Soon after, while alone at a local movie theater, Julia’s sense of being watched intensifies, and she becomes confident she’s being followed — could it be the same unknown neighbor?
