Vampire Film ‘Caleb’ Bares Its Fangs In New Teaser Trailer

The teaser trailer for writer-director Robert D’Antona‘s vampire film Caleb has arrived which promises a distressing gothic tale. This film represents a return to the origins, to the themes dear to the director. The fascinating mythological creatures are inspired by the ancient European folkloristic legend while, for the staging, Caleb aims to convey the same feelings of anguish, eroticism, and elegance that are present in the great cult films such as Bram Stoker’s Dracula directed by Francis Ford Coppola and Interview with Vampire directed by Neil Jordan. In the first trailer, we get a taste of what the film will be, according to the words of the director, a “visionary, frightening and distressing movie, but that will make you excited at the same time” and presents “Timere”, an imaginary village geographically located in the Alps on the borders with Switzerland, recreated thanks to the two beautiful Piedmontese towns of Vogogna (VB) and Oleggio (NO). The filming of Caleb lasted 47

DVD Review: Mommy (1995) and Mommy 2 (1997)

“Mommy” (Patty McCormick, unofficially reprising her role from 1956’s The Bad Seed) is a dotting mother to young Jessica Ann (Rachel Lemieux)… and nothing, and I mean nothing will stand in the way of her daughter being a success. To wit: when Jessica fails to win the ‘Student of the Year’ award she straight up murders the girl’s teacher (Star Trek‘s Majel Barrett) and makes it look like an accident. This attracts the attention of hard-ass Lt. March (The Exorcist‘s Father Karras himself, Jason Miller)… but that does little, okay… absolutely zero, to stop this psycho from murdering even more folks that give Jessie static. Speaking of our favorite tyke, she gets wind of mommy’s wicked ways (I mean it’s hard not to when your mother blasts holes in someone right in front of you)… but the lethal lady’s silver tongue manages to initiate “Operation: Save Ass” with the quickness. Will Jessica Ann come to her senses and help justice

Blu-Ray Review: The Lighthouse

From the director of The Witch, Robert Eggers, comes The Lighthouse, a dark psychological thriller that follows two lighthouse keepers living on a remote island in New England in the 1890s. Filmed in black and white, the story plays out against crashing waves and a stark landscape. Eggers choice of black and white magnifies the film’s intensity by making you feel out of place and adds a layer of bleakness to the movie. We watch as Willem Defoe and Robert Pattinson work and live as they go on a slow descent into madness which feels so very real. Pattinson has not received much respect as an actor since his role as a sparkly douche of a vampire in the Twilight franchise, but he complete redeems himself is The Lighthouse proving he has real talent. His portrayal of Thomas, a man who begins to question his reality after living with Defoe’s unstable Thomas Wake, is absolutely incredible. This is coming from
