British actress/model Gemma Atkinson and her eye-popping 34-E’s are ready for takeoff in Black and Blue Films’ new in-flight frightener Airborne. Atkinson—who serves as co-producer on the project—stars as Harriett, a passenger aboard a jumbo jet carrying an ancient evil that has gotten loose.
Airborne is Atkinson’s second horror feature. She made her spook-show debut last year in Eyeline Entertainment’s werewolf thriller 13HRS. The 26-year-old stunner is best known, however, for her portrayal of self-cutter Lisa Hunter on the British teen-soap “Hollyoaks” and its various spinoffs.
Airborne costars Fiona Ryan (“The Tudors”), Kimberly Jaraj (I Can’t Think Straight) Julian Glover (Mirrors), Craig Conway (The Descent), Sebastian Street (Stag Night of the Dead), and Alan Ford (Exorcist: The Beginning).
Little Deaths, a kinky horror anthology pic from U.K. directors Sean Hogan (Lie Still), Andrew Parkinson (Venus Drowning), and Simon Rumley (Red, White, & Blue), will hold its North American premiere at this year’s SXSW Film Festival in Austin, TX. Three tales in all, the film follows dysfunctional couples done in by their psychosexual tendencies.
Peep the trailer:
The synopses read:
House and Home: Written and Directed by Sean Hogan
A well-to-do yuppie couple pose as concerned religious do-gooders in order to lure homeless girls back to their home for perverted sex games. Deciding upon their latest target, a mysterious young woman named Sorrow, they drug and imprison her before subjecting her to a series of assaults and humiliations. However, the captive girl is not as helpless as she first appears, and the couple soon find the rules of the game have changed…
Mutant Tool: Written and Directed by Andrew Parkinson
Jen, a former prostitute and recovering drug addict, is undergoing therapy in a bid to turn her life around. Her new therapist, Dr. Reece, comes as a recommendation via her boyfriend, Frank. But unbeknownst to Jen, Frank and Dr. Reece are involved with a bizarre black market narcotics trade, in which the semen from human mutations created during WWII Nazi experiments is harvested and processed for its psychic effects on the human brain. And now the last known mutant is dying, and a suitable replacement must be found…
Bitch: Written and Directed by Simon Rumley
Stuck in a destructive relationship that isn’t going anywhere and lousy dead-end jobs which have no future, Claire and Pete live in a council flat and are united only in their love of rock music. The flame of passion having long since died, the couple derives a strange sexual pleasure from an unspoken sadomasochistic role-playing game where Claire finds new and inventive ways of mistreating Pete – and Pete, ever the devoted lap dog, takes what she dishes out time and time again. But in an unspoken game the boundaries are hazy, and when Claire unwittingly takes things one step too far, Pete devises a way to teach the bitch to heel, once and for all.
Little Deaths stars Kate Braithewaite, Daniel Brocklebank, Brendan Gregory, Siubhan Harrison, Jodie Jameson, Luke de Lacey, Holly Lucas, Jason Maza, Tom Sawyer, and Christopher Fairbanks.
Looks like it’s going to be a good year for horror comedy. Magnet Films is set to roll funny Frenchman Quentin Dupieux’s outrageous hell-on-wheel thriller Rubber into theaters on—wait for it—April 1. Of course, the tale of a homicidal, telekinetic tire named Robert would be completely unrelatable without a love story—hence, the new poster (pictured above) teasing Robert’s inflatuation.
Rubber’s official synopsis reads:
Robert, an inanimate tire that has been abandoned in the desert, suddenly and inexplicably comes to life. As Robert roams the bleak landscape, he discovers that he possesses terrifying telepathic powers that give him the ability to destroy anything he wishes without having to move.
At first content to prey on small desert creatures and various discarded objects, his attention soon turns to humans, especially a beautiful and mysterious woman who crosses his path.
Things aren’t looking too fabulous for British actress and Orbit Gum pitch-woman Vanessa Branch in After Dark Originals’ new alien frightener Area 51. The 37-year-old stunner plays a news reporter hunted down by a vicious extraterrestrial creature while taking a military guided tour of Nevada’s infamous Air Force base.
The film premieres on the Syfy Channel Feb. 26 (Yup, tomorrow)
Peep the trailer:
Branch, best known in the States for shilling Orbit Gum while wearing white miniskirts, made her horror film debut as a tortured serial killer victim in Immortals director Tarsem Singh’s trippy psychological thriller The Cell. She has since played jilted wench Giselle in all three Pirates of the Caribbean films and wife to Charlie’s brother Liam on ABC’s much-missed “LOST.”
The Orbit girl will next be blowing up the big screen with Samuel Jackson (The Avengers), Nina Dobrev (“The Vampire Diaries”), Daniel Dae Kim (“LOST”) and Kellan Lutz (Nightmare on Elm Street) in Jonah Loop’s directorial debut The Killing Game. She plays a BBC reporter in the fight-to-the-death actioner.
Alessandra Torresani is once again causing sci-fi fans to feel a disturbance in their pants. The 23-year-old star of Syfy’s now defunct “Battlestar Galactica” prequel series “Caprica” dons Princess Leia’sReturn of the Jedislave girl bikini in Break Originals’ music video parody of Enrique Iglesias’ love ballad “Tonight, I’m Fucking You.”
While not quite on Weird Al Yankovic (“Yoda,” “The Saga Begins”) level, the force is, nonetheless, strong with this parody. Chances are the tune will ear-worm its way into your head so you may as well learn the lyrics:
I’m like Kenobi
Seeking passage to Alderaan with you
We’ll watch Big Bang Theory
As you ride my TARDIS and call me Doctor Who
You’re into Cosplay (oooh)
Damn that’s one fine skin job on you.
Beam Me Up Hottie (oooo oooh)
My Vulcan Logic tells me its time to groove
Across the federation
My Jedi inclination
Tells me that I am a suitable mate for you
We Love Next Generation
Xbox over Playstation
Its time that I tap from your Mana Pool
Cause tonight I’m Frakking You
Whoa you know
That tonight I’m Frakking You
Whoa you know
Are You Gwen Stacey
My Spidey sense says I’d shoot my web all on you
I’m No Fergengi
I drop more coin than Mario on mushrooms
Your Dharma education
Delorean transporation
Revs my engine to warp speed like Mr. Sulu
Dollhouse’s cancellation
Hurt like Luke’s amputation
Its time to Mork Me and say Nanoo Nanoo
Cause tonight I’m Frakking You
Whoa you know
That tonight I’m Frakking You
Whoa you know
Ha! Kunal…
Let’s Meet Up In Naboo
We’ll roll around like R2-D2
You’ve set my phasers to stun
Cause your Sarlaac Pit’s
Got more spice in it
Than the planet Dune
From Asgard’s
Hallowed halls
Everybody big bangs Kunal
Gotham or Hogwarts
My Broad Sword’ll Be the one
Thing To Rule them all
Lets clone your body
Join them all together to form a Guild
and go on a Quest
We can use my expansion pack
Then I’ll take you down like Boba Fett
Up Up, Down Down
Left, Right, Left Right
B, A, Select then Start
Its time to one-up
Thirty lives with you, (cuz tonight I’m)
Cuz tonight I’m Frakking You
Whoa you know
That tonight I’m Frakking You
Whoa you know
That tonight I’m Frakking You
Scream queen and August ‘07 Playboy model Christa Campbell is gonna need a big can of Raid to survive Nu Image Films’ recently wrapped creature-feature Spiders 3-D. Directed by Tibor Takacs (The Gate), the film stars Campbell as a New Yorker with great breasts attempting to survive an infestation of giant mutant spiders.
The film’s official synopsis reads:
Following a crash of an old Soviet space station in New York City’s subway tunnel, a new species of poisonous spiders is discovered. Inadvertently the spiders mutate to gigantic proportions and wreak havoc on the entire city.
Spiders 3-D, which was actually shot in Bulgaria in the same Boyana studio where the new Conan reboot was filmed, is said to feature a variety of gigantic arachnids. Patrick Muldoon (Starship Troopers) and 13-year-old newbie Sydney Sweeney (The Ward) are on board as Campbell’s husband and daughter.
Campbell can currently be seen in Millennium Films’ (a division of Nu Image) supernatural actioner Drive Angry 3-D, in which she goes nude during a cat-fight with Amber Heard.
Summit Entertainment held the world premiere for their upcoming supernatural road-rage actioner Drive Angry 3-D last night at the Arclight Cinemas in Hollywood, CA. I could not attend because I was busy going over Nic Cage’s books, but have hijacked images from people whose job it is to go for your stroking viewing pleasure (see below).
Joining Cage and director Patrick Lussier on the red carpet were film costars Amber Heard and her new lesbian hairdo, Billy Burke and his cock-accessory for the night, Charlotte Ross’ breasts (pictured above), the always cool William Fichtner, and former Playboy model Christa Campbell.
Drive Angry 3-D stars Cage as a damned soul who escapes from hell to run down the pricks that murdered his daughter and abducted his grandchild. I caught an early screening of the flick and can tell you it’s a must see for fans of violence, sex, and fucked-up humor.
Former “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” star and Playboy cover model (July, 2000) Charisma Carpenter is set to play identical twin sisters in director Hanelle Culpepper’s (How to Stand in Line for Star Wars) now-shooting in Los Angeles psychological thriller Deadly Sibling Rivalry.
The film follows the different paths estranged twins Janna and Callie travel after the accidental death of their beloved father. When an automobile accident leaves successful and happily married Janna in a coma, downtrodden degenerate Callie assumes her identity and quickly plots a way to keep her sister gone.
Carpenter, of course, made her name in Hollywood by being ridiculously hot and by playing bratty babe Cordelia Chase on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and its spinoff “Angel.” She also starred as gold-digger Kendall Casablancas on teen mystery show “Veronica Mars.”
As for the big screen—sort of—the 40-year-old stunner can be seen in director Jason Bourque’s upcoming survival-frightener Crash Siteand the now available on DVD British thriller Psychosis.
Norwegian actress Ingrid Bolsø Berdal, best known for the 2006 survival frightener Cold Prey, is the first to join Famke Janssen’s coven of witches in Dead Snow director Tommy Wirkola’s Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters, a flash forward of the classic fairy tale that finds the siblings hunting down supernatural forces for profit.
Berdal’s character is described as being a ruthless “killing machine” under the command of Janssen’s head witch. Hot properties Jeremy Renner (The Town) and Gemma Arterton (Clash of the Titans) headline the 3-D Paramount Pictures film as Hansel & Gretel.
Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters rolls camera on March 7. It’s expected to be in theaters in June 2012.
Memphis-born stunner Clare Grant is set to star in Hatchet and Frozen director Adam Green’s pilot episode of “Sexy Nightmare Slayers,” a proposed web series from ArieScope Pictures and Comedy Central’s Atom.com.
We have come up with something that is kind of like “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” meets Evil Dead II. We had total creative control so you’re going to be seeing stories filled with hot chicks, cool monsters, and lots and lots of monster goo.
We could make three more, we could make thirty more. It depends on how this one does and of course our availability at the time.
“Sexy Nightmare Slayers” stars Grant and Rileah Vanderbilt (Frozen) as half-naked angels sent from heaven to protect children from nighttime monsters. If picked up, the series—created by Green and Vanderbilt—will feature a variety of guest stars and directors.
Grant’s horror creds include After Dark’s The Graves, an episode of Showtime’s “Masters of Horror” (“Valerie on the Stairs”), and marriage to Seth Green. To see photos of Grant nude, go here.
