Thriller
“Widows” Must Risk A Life Of Crime To Pay A Debt Or Join Their Husbands In Death (Trailer)
This thriller “Widows” looks like it’s gonna go hella hard when it hits screens this November. Fine by us!
From Academy Award®-winning director Steve McQueen (“12 Years a Slave”) and co-writer and bestselling author Gillian Flynn (“Gone Girl”) comes a blistering, modern-day thriller set against the backdrop of crime, passion and corruption. “Widows” is the story of four women with nothing in common except a debt left behind by their dead husbands’ criminal activities. Set in contemporary Chicago, amid a time of turmoil, tensions build when Veronica (Oscar® winner Viola Davis), Linda (Michelle Rodriguez), Alice (Elizabeth Debicki) and Belle (Cynthia Erivo) take their fate into their own hands and conspire to forge a future on their own terms. “Widows” also stars Liam Neeson, Colin Farrell, Robert Duvall, Daniel Kaluuya, Lukas Haas and Brian Tyree Henry.

Looks like it has the cast that can deliver the goods. And score another win for the cast members of “Atlanta” on Fx: Brian Tyree Henry (aka ‘Paper Boi’ on the series) is in this. In theaters November 16, 2018.

Where to begin to describe this. Okay, war itself is already gory and scary. But how about that just being the backdrop of a movie? How about making a zombie soldier project gone horribly wrong the main plotline? JJ Abrams went and did it. Not sure if we’re ready for it, but we have until November to get there. Peep the trailer.
After More Than 20 Years, “Tales From The Hood” Gets A Sequel (Trailer)
Wow! Spike Lee and the original creators are back with “Tales From The Hood”… TWO! Remember the first one, with mad creepy Mr. Simms, played by Clarence Williams III? Well, Mr. Simms is back… played by Keith David; who is acting just as creepy, just as mad, and not playing with y’all!
In the wake of the success of Jordan Peele’s “Get Out,” studios have been racing to make their own “socially aware†genre films. While most will miss the point completely, there’s one in the works that’s perfectly primed for a revival. Rusty Cundieff and Darin Scott‘s 1995 “Tales From The Hood” was hugely ahead of its time, putting an urban spin on “Tales From the Crypt†and sharing several stories in what is easily one of the best anthology films ever made. Now, 20 years later, it’s getting a much-needed sequel – on Blu-ray, DVD, Digital and On Demand on October 2, 2018.
“Tales from the Hood 2” introduces the audience to four new dreadful short tales, that follow the original film’s cult classic roots. Sparked with both humor and terror, this brand new movie is said to be filled with even more gritty social commentary and cultural subtext that will provoke and haunt viewers, while putting them on the edge of their seats.

Announcing The Commencement Of ‘The First Purge’ (Trailer)
This prequel is the story of how The Purge got started. Anyone notice drug-dealer-turned-resistance-leader Dmitri is played by Y’Lan Noel (from Issa Rae’s HBO series “Insecure”)? Cool, right?
Interesting continuation of The Purge series’ violence-with-conscious-points. It’s out now. Go!
Michael Myers Will Hunt & Haunt You In Your Nightmares Because Of This ‘Halloween’ Reboot (Trailer)
Yeah! Several have tried it, but this version looks like it’s winning. Believe in the ‘boogie man’ that is Michael Myers when the 2018 “Halloween” version hits theaters in October! Got comedic actor Danny McBride and the producer of “Get Out” attached… plus the classic film’s OG Jamie Lee Curtis in there.
Jamie Lee Curtis returns to her iconic role as Laurie Strode, who comes to her final confrontation with Michael Myers, the masked figure who has haunted her since she narrowly escaped his killing spree on Halloween night four decades ago.

Jim Carrey Stars In The Darkest Movie Of His Career To Date (Trailer)
Wow. “Dark Crimes” for real. Heavy on the recognizable faces, but somehow casting does not diminish the story. Jim Carrey is not being uber-silly or uber-philosophical… he threw himself into this role and told this story. At least, that is what I am getting from this stunning trailer.

Witness The Horror Of Being ‘Different’ As FOX Puts “The New Mutants” Out Into The X-Men Universe (Trailer)
Wow. Just looking at the comments on this YouTube trailer. Looks like the folks out there are really here for this horror-core, trippy approach to “The New Mutants” movie. Well, bring ’em out, bring ’em out, FOX! Let’s see if you got something to scream about when this hits theaters next April. Prediction: If this goes over well, the X-Men Universe will never be the same.
Watch The Final Teaser For “Geostorm” (Trailer)
Sending prayers to Puerto Rico, Florida, Texas, and all in the wake of the hurricanes and tropical storms. Much has happened in the way of natural phenomena attacking humanity where it lives since the first “Geostorm” trailer we posted. Of course, this epic enviro-thriller will take things extremely over the top, but it does kind of trigger feelings regarding our own dealings with nature’s wrath.
Okay, on with the trailer. One last look (trailer) before it hits big silver screens.

Action/Fantasy/Thriller: Natalie Portman Stars In “Annihilation” (Teaser Trailer)
The teaser doesn’t give much away about the story, but it might give you a case of the heebies and the jeebies (that ‘music’ though)! A little digging… so Natalie Portman’s character’s husband got into a spot of trouble in a spot that’s like a dark Narnia meets the Savage Land meets the Bermuda Triangle. Guess the rest of the story will come to us on or before 1st quarter 2018.
Based on Jeff VanderMeer’s best-selling Southern Reach Trilogy, “Annihilation” stars Natalie Portman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Gina Rodriguez, Tessa Thompson, Tuva Novotny and Oscar Isaac. It was written and directed by Alex Garland (“Ex Machina,” “28 Days Later”).

In Advance Of “Blade Runer 2049,” Watch This Prequel Short ‘2048: Nowhere To Run’ (Trailer)
Yep, this “Blade Runner” reboot is pushing in all the chips. Star-studded cast, as we saw in the trailer we posted earlier (here). And Dave Bautista is featured prominently in this clip. Truth be told, folks probably barely remember him as a pro ‘rassler. Doing pretty well in action/sci-fi, don’t you think?
Journey into the world 2049 with a replicant on the run. Dave Bautista is Sapper Morton. #BladeRunner2049, in theaters October 6.

‘Hunger Games’ Director Francis Lawrence Directs Jennifer Lawrence Again, This Time Starring As The “Red Sparrow” (Trailer)
From playing shape-shifting infiltration specialist mutant Mystique to ‘Hunger Games’ insurrectionist, it’s like Jennifer Lawrence’s roles have been a demo reel for a blood pressure-raising spy thriller like this. Especially when it is being directed by the same guy that helmed the ‘Hunger Games’ blockbusters, Francis Lawrence. Check out the trailer for “Red Sparrow” above. Looks like it goes sultry to gritty faster than 0-to-100… real quick!
Dominika Egorova is many things.
A devoted daughter determined to protect her mother at all costs.
A prima ballerina whose ferocity has pushed her body and mind to the absolute limit.
A master of seductive and manipulative combat.
When she suffers a career-ending injury, Dominika and her mother are facing a bleak and uncertain future. That is why she finds herself manipulated into becoming the newest recruit for Sparrow School, a secret intelligence service that trains exceptional young people like her to use their bodies and minds as weapons. After enduring the perverse and sadistic training process, she emerges as the most dangerous Sparrow the program has ever produced. Dominika must now reconcile the person she was with the power she now commands, with her own life and everyone she cares about at risk, including an American CIA agent who tries to convince her he is the only person she can trust.

AMC Screens “The Walking Dead” Season 8 Teaser At SDCC (Trailer)
Aw HELLLLLLL naw! That could NOT be all a dream. I will go on record saying how lame that would be. So, no, the nightmare world king of AMC Originals, “The Walking Dead,” was all real. I declare it!
(Okay, as real as a zombie series can get on TV. And after watching the Comic Con trailer above, you will see just how real sh!t can get!)

Watch The “Fear The Walking Dead” Season 3 Trailer Shown At SDCC 2017 (Trailer)
If you have not been keeping up with “Fear The Walking Dead” (or worse yet, have not gotten into the series)… It is okay. You have time to binge before it starts back up again. Get with your cable provider and get into the On Demand section. Watch some excellent zombie-genre television.
Now, that is my opinion and plea for you. But watch what the pros teased and lured San Diego Comic Con attendees with this year. Dope right?
Check Out The San Diego Comic Con 2017 Teaser For “Death Note” (Trailer)
Hmmm… Death is no angel in this movie, eh? Granting wishes though; the most macabre wishes… like who you wish was dead… and HOW! Just write it down and bam! Damn. They’re dead. Most gruesomely.
