‘The Meg’ Trailer Is Coming!

The giant prehistoric Megalodon is everywhere these days. Author Steve Alten’s franchise is not only getting a new novel titled Meg: Generations, a comic, but also the film adaptation of Alten’s first book titled The Meg from director Jon Turtletaub. Alten himself has just confirmed that the trailer for The Meg will be swimming in sometime in March, followed by its theatrical release this summer. In the film, “A deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific…with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep-sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor (Statham) is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer (Winston Chao), against the wishes of his daughter Suyin (Li Bingbing), to save the crew—and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon.

‘Black Water’ Sequel Heads For ‘The Abyss’

Director Andrew Traucki and producer Michael Robertson, the team behind 2007’s Black Water, are back together again for the upcoming sequel, Black Water: Abyss. Black Water: Abyss centers on an adventure-loving couple who convince their friends to explore a remote cave system in the forests of Northern Australia. With a storm approaching, they abseil into the mouth of the cave, which starts to flood and the group finds themselves threatened by a pack of crocodiles, setting up a tense survival drama, Variety reports. Mike Runagall of Altitude said the sequel will have a similar feel as the original, which was shot with live crocodiles. “Black Water: Abyss employs the same ingenious approach on a much larger canvas to deliver a highly commercial high-concept thriller from a team with a proven track record in this arena,” Producer Robertson has stated: “Like all films in this genre, Black Water: Abyss is designed to terrify and scare, cause dread and alarm, to invoke

November To Arrive In Theaters This Month

This month, director Rainer Sarnet’s period film November opens theatrically in New York City and Los Angeles, from Oscilloscope. Described as “beautiful as it is profound” by Rolling Stone, this tale of love and survival, set in the 19th century Estonia, centers on peasant girl Liina who longs for village boy Hans, but Hans is inexplicably infatuated by the visiting German baroness that possesses all that he longs for. “For Liina, winning Hans’ requited love proves incredibly complicated in this dark, harsh landscape where spirits, werewolves, plagues, and the devil himself converge, where thievery is rampant, and where souls are highly regarded but come quite cheap. With alluring black and white cinematography, director Rainer Sarnet vividly captures these motley lives as they toil to exist – but is existence worth anything if it lacks a soul?” Inspired by the Estonian novel “Rehepapp” by Andrus Kivrähk, the film stars Rea Lest, Jörgen Liik, Arvo Kukumägi, Katariina Unt, Taavi Eelmaa, Heino Kalm,

‘The First Purge’ Teaser Makes America Great Again

“Behind every tradition lies a revolution.” The Purge franchise continues this 4th of July with The First Purge, from director Gerard McMurray and screenwriter James DeMonaco, the franchise’s creator. Today, we get a look at how the annual night of chaos and murder began in the film’s first teaser trailer. We should also talk about the new poster that puts a new twist on Trump’s iconic red hat and slogan of “Make America Great Again” and replaces it with “The First Purge”. Political statement? Maybe, but I think it’s hilarious. “To push the crime rate below one percent for the rest of the year, the New Founding Fathers of America (NFFA) test a sociological theory that vents aggression for one night in one isolated community. But when the violence of oppressors meets the rage of the marginalized, the contagion will explode from the trial-city borders and spread across the nation.” Luna Lauren Velez, Melonie Diaz, Mo McRae, Chyna Layne, Y’lan
