New Look at Escape from Tomorrow Arrives to Give You the Creeps - Dread Central

One of the most talked about and controversial films that was shown at Sundance this year is Escape from Tomorrow, and right now we have a couple of videos on tap sure to give you the shivers.

The movie was shot by first time writer-director Randy Moore at Disney's theme parks, without permission from The Walt Disney Company. The film garnered much praise, but many believed it would never receive distribution due to the fact that it was illegally shot at the parks. Surprisingly Escape from Tomorrow has been picked up for distribution and will see release courtesy of Cinetic Media's distribution offshoot PDA.

It's set for limited theatrical release on October 11th, with an On Demand release on the very same day. The version that sees release will be 15 minutes shorter than the one shown at Sundance, which many criticized for running a little too long.

The film centers around a man who finds out he has been laid off while he's on vacation with his family, resulting in a series of surreal and disturbing visions and experiences, which see the park taking on a sinister quality. It stars Roy Abramsohn, Elena Schuber, Katelynn Rodriguez, and Jack Dalton.

NOTHING LEFT TO FEAR Poster. NOTHING LEFT TO FEAR Stars Anne Heche | Collider

Here’s the official synopsis for Nothing Left to Fear:

NOTHING LEFT TO FEAR was inspired by the legend of Stull, Kansas. Wendy (Anne Heche), her husband Dan (James Tupper of “Revenge”) and their kids have just moved to the small town of Stull, Kansas, where Dan is the new pastor. But in this sleepy community of friendly neighbors, a horrific series of occurrences awaits them: Their teenage daughter (Rebekah Brandes of Bellflower) is being tormented by grisly visions. Her younger sister (Jennifer Stone of “Wizards Of Waverly Place”) has been marked for a depraved ritual. And deep within the heartland darkness, one of The Seven Gates Of Hell demands the blood of the innocent to unleash the creatures of the damned. Ethan Peck (“10 Things I Hate About You”) and Clancy Brown (The Shawshank Redemption) co-star in this demonic shocker featuring original music by producer SLASH and inspired by the real-life paranormal legacy of Stull. NOTHING LEFT TO FEAR is the first film from Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Slash’s production company, Slasher Films, and was written byJonathan W.C. Mills and directed by Anthony Leonardi III.

Mayhaps i am jaded. This was fun. Nice to see Ti West palying a douche(clearly not a stretch) and SPOILERS


getting brained


and yeah, this had some nice violence but not a lot of CLEVER. It tried...tried to be something new, but it was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO predictable that the NEW twists it brought to the table were telegraphed very clumsily. Fun, but not the second coming it was proclaimed as...REAL nice use of a Dwight Twilley song...that is the biggest thing I took away from it.
 
Dwight Twilley? "I'm on Fire?" I think that's the only Twilley song I know. :P

Crampton is in said movie! :)

Haven't seen it. :( But it's gotten good enough reviews. And those masks are creepy! I want one! evil:
 
Dead 2, The: India Review - Dread Central

So with The Dead 2: India we get a distressingly poor story delivered with superlative visuals, but also important and not yet touched on are the zombies themselves. How does the approach of the brothers Ford to their shambling undead work out? Well, put it this way: If zombies happen to push your particular fear buttons, this film will scare you half to death. Like the original, the zombies are a magnificent mix of Romero and Fulci's approach to the living dead, realised with some excellent prosthetic and makeup effects. They're slow as molasses and easily outpaced, but quicker than expected to swarm and inescapably determined once prey has been noticed. Scenes of Javed and Nicholas driving through darkened outback roads as each passing walking corpse slowly makes a grab for the windows of the vehicle are toe-curlingly effective and testament to how well realised the persistent threat is. Every moment is fraught with peril -- every closed door or darkened room could be housing a member of the undead ranks, and going to sleep is a genuinely terrifying proposition (the fatal consequences of which are explored more viscerally in the first film).

The zombie attack scenes are, for the most part, well executed and tense; and these, combined with one particularly horrific setup which forces Nicholas into making a devastating moral decision, give glimpses of the nerve-shattering survival horror that our directing duo strive hard to perfect. It's a shame, then, that we find a complete package that more often tests the patience than it does the nerves and could regretfully thus only be recommended for ardent zombie fans and those confident that the woeful plot and performances are unlikely to impede their enjoyment of some of the scariest zombies seen on-screen in years.
 
The MPAA Say Eli Roth's Green Inferno Is Aberrant, Roth Fills Me In On What It's Really About - Bleeding Cool Comic Book, Movies and TV News and Rumors

Ahead of Eli Roth‘s cannibal movie The Green Inferno premiering at The Toronto International Film Festival next week, the MPAA have – coincidentally, I assume, as they have no jurisdiction North of the border – awarded the film an R rating and explained why.

Rated R for aberrant violence and torture, grisly disturbing images, brief graphic nudity, sexual content, language and some drug use

TIFF’s Midnight Madness Blog makes a pretty good gag about this rating:

Check out Roth’s past MPAA scorecards. His violence started as “strong,” then went to “brutal,” then “sadistic,” and finally to The Green Inferno‘s particularly evocative “aberrant.” That’s called “growing as a filmmaker.”

I like this point from Eli Roth...

I don’t want to analyse it too much but I always, in my own writing, feel very strongly about certain things. The Green Inferno, in the main, is about the main character, the daughter of a lawyer at the UN. He does everything by policy, and he tells her you can’t just run in with your phone and be a cowboy and change things over night. She thinks that because she can stream and tweet and blog… it’s like Kony 2012, that’s what the movie is about.

Everybody bought these T-shirts and said “it’s terrible, it’s terrible” but do you think Joseph Kony’s tweets made a ****ing bit of difference? You can make all the YouTube videos you want but it doesn’t mean anything. It’s not the way to get things done. In The Green Inferno, these kids have this fantasy that they can fix everything with their phones but they get their asses kicked.

The Twilley song was "looking for the magic."

I liked You're Next, but yeah, nothing new at all. Decently entertaining slasher, though.

And yeah, JD, Ti West as an "underground documentarian"?? Hilarious. The Innkeepers was one of the most overrated horror movies of the past few years, IMO. But I liked House of the Devil.

Well, House of the Devil, had The Breakup Song....

We had broken up for good just an hour before,
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.
