Annihilation Trailer – Natalie Portman heads back to sci-fi for director Alex Garland

December 17, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The Beach author Alex Garland proved he was a very capable director with Ex Machina. Now he’s returning with a female-led sci-fi trip into a strange place where the normal rules of nature don’t apply.

The movie sees Portman as a biologist who agrees to go on a mission into a zone know as The Shimmer. Her husband (Oscar Isaac) went on a previous mission into the region and was the only thing to return – but in a coma. Heading in she discovers a place full of strange creatures and things that don’t appear as if they are possible.

Based on Jeff VanderMeer’s best-selling Southern Reach Trilogy, Annihilation also stars Jennifer Jason Leigh, Gina Rodriguez, Tessa Thompson and Tuva Novotny. It’ll be released in US cinemas in February, while Netflix will stream it many other countries (inlcuding the UK) from early March. [Read more…]

New The Hateful Eight Trailer – Quentin Tarantino traps people in a blizzard

November 6, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Synopsis: In THE HATEFUL EIGHT, set six or eight or twelve years after the Civil War, a stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. The passengers, bounty hunter John Ruth (Russell) and his fugitive Daisy Domergue (Leigh), race towards the town of Red Rock where Ruth, known in these parts as “The Hangman,” will bring Domergue to justice.

Along the road, they encounter two strangers: Major Marquis Warren (Jackson), a black former union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter, and Chris Mannix (Goggins), a southern renegade who claims to be the town’s new Sheriff. Losing their lead on the blizzard, Ruth, Domergue, Warren and Mannix seek refuge at Minnie’s Haberdashery, a stagecoach stopover on a mountain pass. When they arrive at Minnie’s, they are greeted not by the proprietor but by four unfamiliar faces.

Bob (Bichir), who’s taking care of Minnie’s while she’s visiting her mother, is holed up with Oswaldo Mobray (Roth), the hangman of Red Rock, cow-puncher Joe Gage (Madsen), and Confederate General Sanford Smithers (Dern). As the storm overtakes the mountainside stopover, our eight travelers come to learn they may not make it to Red Rock after all…

The movie will be in cinemas early next year.
