Film Producer Zainab Azizi Talks Making ‘Send Help’ in Our Interview

What do Boy Kills World, Locked, and Don’t Move have in common? Besides being great films? What links them is Zainab Azizi, who produced them all. This lovely lady has a long record of making great films, and her latest, Send Help, might just be the best so far. I had the pleasure of discussing Send Help with Azizi. And you should check out the interview below, where she discusses the making of the film, the cast, and so much more, including women in cinema. Send Help, from director Sam Raimi, stars Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien. In the film, two colleagues become stranded on a deserted island after a plane crash, and are the only survivors.

On the island, they must overcome past grievances and work together to survive, but ultimately, it’s a battle of wills and wits to make it out alive. Get

The clip centers on a relentless, unbroken shot of a young woman trying to navigate a house that has clearly failed its most recent health inspection. Between the Deadite infestation and the literal rain of mangled corpses, it’s exactly the kind of “family reunion” that requires a chainsaw to survive. What’s the Story? If you thought your last Thanksgiving was awkward, the official synopsis for Evil Dead Burn has you beat: After the loss of her husband, a grieving widow seeks refuge at her in-laws’ secluded

Attorney Julie Hastings (Frances McDormand, Fargo) has the dirt on the bribes big time developer Louis Strack Jr.(Colin Friels, Dark City) has been using to get the job done hassle-free, and this upsets his ass greatly… so much so, he enlists the help of gangster/psychopath Robert G.
