The B-Movie Road Tour Bringing Spooky Drive-In Fun to the Masses

The B-Movie Road Tour Bringing Spooky Drive-In Fun to the MassesNever mind the upcoming mega movie events of the summer! It's time to make you aware of an all new event whose combined budget probably wouldn't even be Man of Steel's craft services budget. Wolverine's maybe, but definitely not Man of Steel.

From the Press Release
In the 1950s and 1960s, drive-ins began to spread like wildfire, increasing to more than 4,000 locations. The new sites may have begun as a venue to watch films, but interestingly, the main films that were shown were mostly considered to be B films. Patrons enjoyed them regardless and remained enthralled with what they saw – so much so that the drive-in became a part of American culture where people came together to socialize with each other. It was an experience all of its own making and is considered an important part of Americana.

Today there are fewer than 400 drive-ins currently in operation across the United States.

A movie watched under the stars while breathing in the fresh air... Audience members could even get out of the cars to stretch their legs and still hear and see the movie. The environment provided much more freedom than an indoor theater, and people appreciated the intermissions. It was a magical experience, and the memory of childhood drive-ins still lingers in many people's memories.

In an attempted to re-ignite that drive-in passion, Polyscope Media Group LLC, in conjunction with The B-Movie Celebration and Avery Battles, is announcing the launch of the 2013 B-Movie Road Tour.

"Last year I curated the B-Movie Celebration, and people kept complaining that the location of the Celebration was too far, but wouldn't it be great to get emerging and classic B-movies in their town," says Battles. "This was our inspiration for the Road Tour; our goal pure and simple is making films and film-going fun again!"

The Road Tour heads off the first week of July and will initially feature the following lineup:

"A Boy And His Dog' - The classic 1975 black post-apocalyptic comedy from the fertile mind of Harlan Ellison and directed by L.Q. Jones.

B-Movie Road Tour

"Embedded" - New release: A news reporter and his cameraman embed themselves with a group of hunters before all goes awry, only to find themselves as the hunted. Directed by Michael Bafaro.

B-Movie Road Tour

"The Giant Spider" - New release: Christopher R. Mihm's homage to 1950's creature features.

B-Movie Road Tour

"Gila!" - New release: The Jim Wynorski remake of the 1959 classic "The Giant Gila Monster".

B-Movie Road Tour

"The Lost Empire" - 30th Anniversary tour. In a land in a distant past, three beautiful women, members of a lost tribe, battle a madman with diabolical plans to destroy their "Lost Empire." Directed by Jim Wynorski.

B-Movie Road Tour

"Nightbeasts" - New release: A father and son on a weekend hunting trip encounter supernatural horror in the woods. Ably directed by Wes Sullivan and stars Zach Galligan (Gremlins).

B-Movie Road Tour

"Rabid Love" - New release: Paul J. Porter's ode to the classic horror film of the 1980, not to be missed.

B-Movie Road Tour

"Resurrection" - New release: Genetically modified food begins to slowly turn the population of a small MidWest town mad. Directed by Jeff Burr.

B-Movie Road Tour

With this lineup, the organizers of the B-Movie Road Tour hope to help audiences nationwide re-discover their passion for the B-movie/drive-in experience. As of the date of this release, 132 theaters have committed to participating in this year's tour, including drive-in theaters. And by the way, June 6th, 2013, was the 80th Anniversary of the drive-in movie theatre.

Harbinger Down Exceeds Funding Goal! Practical FX Monster Movie on its Way!

Harbinger Down Exceeds Funding Goal! Practical FX Monster Movie on its Way!Right now we have the kind of news we love to end the work week with. We told you about Harbinger Down, a tense, claustrophobic creature film that will feature only practical animatronic and makeup effects. Back then it was seeking funds via Kickstarter. Today it's an absolute go!

Thanks to 3,066 monster-loving backers, $384,181 was pledged, exceeding their initial goal of $350,000. Screw Veronica Mars! This is the kind of thing Kickstarter was made for! Hollywood just won't fund an original old-school monster movie, but it's good to see that the fans will! Amalgamated Dynamics' Alec Gillis writes and directs.

Synopsis:
A group of grad students have booked passage on the fishing trawler Harbinger to study the effects of global warming on a pod of Orcas in the Bering Sea. When the ship's crew dredges up a recently thawed piece of old Soviet space wreckage, things get downright deadly. It seems that the Russians experimented with tardigrades, tiny resilient animals able to withstand the extremes of space radiation. The creatures survived, but not without mutation.

Now the crew is exposed to aggressively mutating organisms. And after being locked in ice for three decades, the creatures aren't about to give up the warmth of human companionship.

Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff, Jr., are among the most talented and passionate FX men working today, and with Harbinger Down they hope to send a message to Hollywood that there is no substitute for good ol' fashioned practical creatures. And they're taking their approach one step further by hiring the best vets in the business to create models, miniatures and stop-motion techniques to create an experience that feels 100% authentic. How awesome is that?!?

Jason Blum Sets the Record Straight on Not Safe for Work

Jason Blum Sets the Record Straight on Not Safe for WorkYesterday we told you that Joe Johnston's Not Safe for Work was going to be headed straight to video. The news came from an interview the LA Times did with producer Jason Blum that made things sound kind of grim. Apparently that's not the case at all.

The original comment was as follows: "Some of my movies work, and some of them don't," Blum said. "I want to be able to say to the studio, 'We missed; let's go to VOD.'"

Bloody Disgusting got in touch with Blum, who clarified his remarks. He wasn’t addressing the quality of any film in particular, just whether one of his movies would work as a wide release. Moreover, in the above quote he was talking about his model and preference of options rather than directly addressing any specific movie or the quality of the film. And, for the record, he “thinks it's great.

There you have it, kids!

For the film Johnston reteamed with his Captain America star JJ Feild (Neil Marshall's Centurion) along with Tom Gallop (The Bourne Identity) and Emmy winner Christian Clemenson ("CSI: Miami"). Max Minghella (The Social Network) stars as the cunning protagonist, while Eloise Mumford (ABC's "The River") plays his girlfriend, who works at the same office along with Clemenson.

Horror favorites Adam Mason and Simon Boyes (Blood River, The Devil's Chair) wrote the script, which follows a young paralegal trapped in an office with a killer on a secret mission to destroy files and anyone that stands in his path.

Horror Game Daylight Coming To PlayStation 4; Watch the Terrifying E3 Trailer!

Horror Game Daylight Coming To PlayStation 4; Watch the Terrifying E3 Trailer!Daylight is releasing for PC and PlayStation 4 in 2014. The game will take full advantage of the PS4 features by using Unreal Engine, allowing players to share gameplay online and capture their most horrific moments to show off to friends. Read on to see the scary good new E3 trailer!

From the Press Release
Next-gen will be a scary place thanks to Daylight, a psychological thriller built on Unreal Engine 4. Developed by Zombie Studios and published worldwide by ATLUS, Daylight will release in early 2014 simultaneously for the PC and as a console exclusive for the PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system. Only the bravest souls will find all the messages and clues scattered through Daylight's labyrinthine twists of derelict hospital corridors and other creepy environments, where procedurally generated levels ensure no two playthroughs will be the same.

Daylight is told in the first-person perspective and begins with players regaining consciousness in an abandoned hospital with only a cell phone to use as a source of light. The ominous atmosphere, powered by Unreal Engine 4, gives players the immediate feeling that they need to escape. But since each level is procedurally generated, no clues, haunted corridors, life-saving flares or lurking specter will ever be in the same place twice. Daylight was written by industry veteran Jessica Chobot, who also provides the quavering, terrified voice of the protagonist.

"Since showing off a pre-alpha build of Daylight at PAX East, the attention on the project has grown tremendously! With the gained attention we were approached with the opportunity to partner with ATLUS to help release Daylight worldwide on Steam and exclusively to the PlayStation 4 system," said Jared Gerritzen, studio director, Zombie Studios. "ATLUS has a long history of great games and is an accomplished publisher with worldwide reach. Working with them will allow us to reach a global audience so we'll be able to scare even more people."

For the PlayStation 4 system, Daylight will take full advantage of the upcoming console's features, including:

  • Using every ounce of processing power: Daylight uses Unreal Engine 4 to create an atmospheric setting with some of the most immersive graphics to date.
  • Share gameplay online: Scare friends with the system's new "share" feature to stream gameplay to friends.
  • Capturing the moment: Daylight uses the PS4 system's integrated PlayStation Eye camera to take pictures of the exact moment that a scare happens. Keep the pictures of the reactions as a novelty or bravely share them with friends on social networks.
  • RealD 3D Support: Daylight uses the latest 3D technology from RealD to expand its haunting atmosphere into the third dimension.

    Daylight will release in Q1 of 2014 for a global audience on both PC and as a console exclusive for the upcoming PlayStation 4 system. Price is still to be determined, and the game is not yet rated by the ESRB.

    The Most Horrifying Thing You'll See All Day: The Starving Games Trailer!

    The Most Horrifying Thing You'll See All Day: The Starving Games Trailer!From the people who brought you Date Movie, Epic Movie, Disaster Movie, Meet the Spartans, and Vampires Suck... Scared yet? You better be because they’re back with their latest allegedly comedic con job cleverly entitled The Starving Games.

    From Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, the writing-directing duo that are to great comedy what a scorching case of herpes is to great sex, comes The Starving Games, which we first heard about last October and hoped might disappear (no such luck obviously). If you’re familiar with their previous films, then you should pretty much know what to expect here, albeit this one is even cheaper looking than their previous endeavors.

    As you can imagine from the title, the bulk of the movie is a spoof of The Hunger Games. That doesn’t mean they didn’t find a way to clumsily work in such other time-stamped pop culture references as Angry Birds, "Gangnam Style," and Avatar. Seriously, Avatar jokes in 2013? At least The Avengers and The Expendables are topical.

    The movie stars Maira Walsh, most recently seen in the “Zombieland” TV pilot that was hated out of existence. Co-starring are Brant Daugherty and Cody Christian, both of whom recently co-starred on the show “Pretty Little Liars”. Either Friedberg & Seltzer really like that show or the two guys have the same agent, who needs a stern talking to.

    The movie does not yet have a US distributor, but you can expect that to change shortly. Remember Vampires Suck cost only $20 million to make and grossed over $80 million worldwide, opening #2 in the US. Don’t be surprised to see The Starving Games in a theater near you in the months to come. Hell, they’ve already gotten the greenlight to make Superfast, their next spoof of the Fast & Furious franchise.

    One cannot accuse the trailer for The Starving Games of not having some moments of sheer honesty. The guy yelling “This is bullshit!” pretty much sums it all up, as does having the trailer end with someone getting shit on their face.

    Synopsis:
    "Good morning, hungry citizens of District 12! Don’t forget today is the Gathering Ceremony, so parents please bring your beloved children to the square for a random death lottery.”

    When lithe and fearless Kantmiss Evershot (a dead ringer for Jennifer Lawrence) volunteers to take part in the winner-takes-all STARVING GAMES, she takes on a whole lot more than we could ever have bargained for... including Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes, and The Avengers.

    Teaser Trailer for Being Human's Final Season on BBC America

    Teaser Trailer for Being Human's Final Season on BBC AmericaWhile our friends in the UK are already aware of how their version of "Being Human" ended up, we Yanks won't find out until July 13th, when it premieres on BBC America. To whet our appetites, here's a teaser trailer for the show.

    Series 5 of BBC America’s "Being Human" premieres Saturday, July 13, 10:00pm ET/PT, as part of Supernatural Saturday.

    Synopsis:
    At the end of Series 4, viewers witnessed former housemate and ghost Annie (Lenora Crichlow) meeting her supernatural end when she saved the world from being ruled by the powerful vampire group “The Old Ones.” Now Hal (Damien Molony) and Tom (Michael Socha) have a new ghost in the midst of their Honolulu Heights home in Alex (Kate Bracken), a vibrant tomboy who lost her life to a vampire’s fangs in retribution for a crime Hal committed 100 years earlier. After being marooned to the afterlife by Hal, their former romance turned sour. With Hal reeling from guilt and desperately trying to tame his thirst, this season sees him conflicted between his hedonistic vampire instincts and being an upright citizen. Meanwhile, Tom’s ambition is to gain confidence and progress in life. He is determined to get noticed by his peers and prepared to take action to make it happen – but at what cost?

    With bills to pay, Hal and Tom find new employment at the Barry Grand Hotel. The hotel, however, is the home of a poisonous retiree, Captain Hatch (Phil Davis, "Whitechapel,""Sherlock"), who on the surface seems to be a grumpy old man. But unbeknownst to them, he hides a dark secret that threatens not only the housemates’ friendships but the entire world. Obscurely, Captain Hatch manipulates the way the trio feels about each other, and suddenly minor disagreements turn into major conflicts. Gradually their treasured trust decreases; and Hal, Tom, and Alex’s common goal – to find humanity – becomes more distant than ever before.

    This final season also sees Mr. Rook, the shady figure whose government department protects the world from supernaturals, battling to hold on to his power. Much to his horror, the government intends to close his organization due to high running costs. Attempting to justify his association’s existence and keep his job, Mr. Rook creates problems to prove the danger posed by supernaturals.

    In a town where a threat is lurking around every corner and where the Devil is growing stronger each day, Hal, Tom, and Alex need to overcome their differences and unite in order to save themselves and the world from destruction. Even the best of friends can become enemies in a ruthless world, but collectively they will try to rise against the evil like true heroes.

    "Being Human" is produced by Touchpaper Wales (part of Zodiak Media Group), Cymru Wales for the BBC and co-produced by BBC AMERICA.

    EPISODE ONE – SATURDAY, JULY 13, 10:00PM ET/PT
    Chained up like an animal, Hal frantically requests to be set free by best friend Tom and new housemate Alex. Once released, Hal is accidentally involved in innocent bystander Crumb’s (Colin Hoult) death and “saves” him by recruiting him as a vampire. But the disobedient vampire proves to be difficult to handle. Meanwhile, Mr. Rook (Steven Robertson), a civil servant in charge of keeping supernaturals at bay, is told that his secret department is being shut down.

    EPISODE TWO – SATURDAY, JULY 20, 10:00PM ET/PT
    Alex feels like the house is haunted by another ghost, but Hal and Tom aren’t convinced. Besides, they have more important things to think about, like the Employee of the Month competition at the hotel they are desperate to win. In the interim, Captain Hatch secretly turns Hal and Tom’s contest into a competitive battle… Meanwhile, Mr. Rook has a plan to justify his secret government department by using the new and slightly unhinged vampire Crumb to show the importance of keeping supernaturals under control.

    EPISODE THREE – SATURDAY, JULY 27, 10:00PM ET/PT
    Television weatherman Larry Chrysler (Julian Barratt, "The Mighty Boosh") is successful – beauty-queen wife, sharp suits, and flashy cars – but he is also untrustworthy and not what he seems.

    Walking Dead Actress Arrested for Sending Ricin-Laced Letters to President Obama

    Walking Dead Shannon RichardsonHere it is, kids! The single most WTF story of the week. Yep, you read that headline correctly. Stunning, no? Read on for details of a Texas actress gone awry and her plot to take out President Obama. I mean, really... WTF?!?

    Actress Shannon Richardson (pictured; "The Walking Dead,""The Vampire Diaries") was arrested in Arkansas on Friday, June 7, in connection with ricin-laced letters sent to President Barack Obama, NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and the director of Mayors Against Illegal Guns in May.

    Shannon Rogers Guess Richardson of New Boston, Texas, originally called the Federal Bureau of Investigation claiming that her husband had sent the letters, officials said, but the investigators found that she had sent the letters herself. Her husband, Nathaniel Richardson, is an Army veteran.

    Investigators have been probing who sent the three letters, all postmarked May 20 from Shreveport, LA, and sent without a return address. The letters sent to Obama and Bloomberg were discovered during routine mail screenings processes. The letter to the director of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, Mark Glaze, was opened.

    You will have to kill me and my family before you get my guns,” the message sent to Bloomberg read, according to NBC New York, which obtained a copy of the letter. “Anyone who wants to come to my house will get shot in the face. The right to bear arms is my constitutional God given right and I will exercise that right till the day I die.

    Have fun fighting for that right behind bars, Shannon.

    Updated Title, New Artwork, and Teaser Trailer for Cyborg Nemesis: The Dark Rift

    Updated Title, New Artwork, and Teaser Trailer for Cyborg Nemesis: The Dark RiftIt's been about a year since we last heard anything about Albert Pyun's Cyborg Nemesis, but it has expanded its title to Cyborg Nemesis: The Dark Rift and gotten some new artwork and a teaser trailer.

    Pyun is almost done with the production and tells us of the film's lead, Joei Fulco: "She is going to be a big star; she's amazing in Cyborg Nemesis and is only 16 years old!" He adds, "We have one more shoot to do at the end of June and expect it to include a well known action star I've worked with previously."

    As for the teaser, beware that it only has a rough temp sound mix and the VFX shots are not final yet either, but it should give you an idea of where Pyun is going with the film, which is drawn from the world of Cyborg and the action of Nemesis. Cyborg Nemesis: The Dark Rift has been acquired by Wrekin Hill for release via Lionsgate later this year.

    Synopsis:
    A distress call goes out from an orbiting space station named the Dark Rift. A tactical Marine unit is sent to the Dark Rift to investigate the emergency. The Marines find that everyone on the station is dead except a 16-year-old girl, who turns out to be not what she seems.
