The Attic, Boy Eats Girl, Dark Ride, Wicked Little Things

[Phalanx]

A boy declares his love for his girlfriend, only to die the same night. He is brought back to life by his mother as a flesh-craving zombie, who sires more teen undead while trying to control his, er, appetite for his beloved.

a perfect example of why horror and comedy should not mix. but its still looks good for a night of ripping the shit out of a movie.

Saw this movie quite a while ago...maybe a year?, REALLY disliked it. The whole "next shaun of the dead" spin I saw it given in a publication was in no was deserved. Can't deny that I found it funny in a few small parts, but otherwise...very unremarkable, I was actually pretty bored throughout.

its not a new movie then?

[Phalanx]

Maybe in the states it's yet to be released...?
Here in Aus, it went straight to dvd about 6 months ago, but I got a copy at least another 4 or so months prior, so I guess in the UK (where it's filmed) it would've been some time ago?

thanks - i saw most of the trailers on the festival site - i suspect most of these will be straight-to-video but it'll be worth looking for them

hmmm i always thought that movies where released in the states before the were released in australia....im australia born by the way.
i never knew up most of the new upcoming movies (not uncluding the ones i posted) until i came to this site. I never heard about them unless they were released in theatres, and that was in australia.

movies always seem to come out in the states last. or, at least they get to where i live last. half the time movies never come to iowa.

A lot of studios have come across to filming here in Aus, as it's a less established industry here, certain things will be cheaper, in combination with certain aesthetically pleasing scenery, and a few "big" generic cities that could be anywhere, not a bad location for filming, I suppose.
For that reason, the films that are filmed HERE will come to us first (I believe we got star wars episode 2 before the states on account of some/most of the filming being done here...) but not by far.
The UK is another story.
I mean shit, they had shaun of the dead out on dvd, before it'd even been released in cinemas here, or even previewed. Evidently they release things a little offbeat. As for the "boy eats girl" one, it seemed like only a really small production, which could potentially explain the delay.

Has anyone seen "Wicked little things" yet?

[Angra]

I found out that "Wicked little things" is actually Tobe Hooper's failed "zombies" project.

So i guess it´s a different story with no zombies in it. Looks like the only thing they´ve kept is the super cool "zombie" poster. :).

All fine by me.




"Wicked little things"





"Zombies"

I guess so but I'm still going to see this movie, it does look good.
