Universal has released a red-band clip for Fifth Element director Luc Besson’s new sci-fi actioner Lucy. Scarlett Johansson toplines as Lucy, a hot chick forced to be a drug mule by Asian gangsters who sew a mysterious narcotic into her stomach after she blackouts after a night of drunken debauchery.
Unfortunately for the gangsters, the dope leaks into Lucy’s blood, freeing the full potential of her mind and transforming her into a killing machine in a cling white tee with clairvoyant and telekinetic powers, incapable of feeling pain and emotion.
Not sure why the clip is red-band. Unlike her jaw-dropping nude performance in Under the Skin, Johansson keeps her natural talents under wraps in Lucy. Then again… that leg spread and come hither look does inspire R-rated thoughts.
Sharknado 2: The Second One premieres on Syfy July 30, and it’s every bit as ridiculous as one could hope. Starring comeback kid Tara Reid (American Pie), genre babe Kari Wuhrer (Eight Legged Freaks), and Ian Ziering (“90210”) doing his best Ash from Evil Dead, the sequel just might float.
Sharknado 2: The Second One finds Reid and Ziering on a mission to save New York from a new and bigger sharknado. It is directed by Anthony Ferrante and written by Thunder Levin, the creative masterminds behind the original Sharknado juggernaut.
A trailer has gone online for editor-turned-director Turner Clay’s new zombie frightener Disaster L.A. The film follows a group of bros as they celebrate their first year living in Los Angeles. Things take a terrible turn when glacial meteors strike the city, unleashing foreign and deadly amoebas into the air.

Planet Terror stunner Marley Shelton stars in Lifetime’s new sci-fi series “The Lottery.” Written by Timothy J. Sexton (Children of Men), the show is set in the year 2025 when women are no longer capable of giving birth, putting the human race in danger of extinction.
Okay, the whole extinction thing is a bummer, but the unbridled joy of releasing freely during sex without the fear of catching a disease you have to feed, shelter, and raise for 18 years kinda makes it worth it, no?
Peep it:
The synopsis reads:
Set within a dystopian future driven by a global fertility crisis, “The Lottery” reveals a world staring down the barrel of impending extinction as women have mysteriously stopped bearing children.
After years of research, Dr. Alison Lennon (Shelton) and her team remarkably create 100 viable embryos. To determine which women will carry the prized embryos to term, a national lottery is held, and a battle over the control of the 100 embryos begins.
Co-starring alongside Shelton are Michael Graziadei (“American Horror Story”), David Alpay (“The Vampire Diaries”), Athena Karkanis (SAW IV), Yul Vazquez (“Magic City”), Shelley Conn (“Terra Nova”), and Martin Donovan (The Haunting in Connecticut). “Lottery” premieres July 20.

German Penthouse Pet Nikita Black has been tapped to star in producers Michael Biehn and Jennifer Blanc-Biehn’s new erotically charged sci-fi thriller Fembot. Editor-turned-director Vance Crofoot (The Victim) helms the film from a script by Staci Layne Wilson (Fetish Factory).
The synopsis reads:
Imagine a world in the not-too-distant future in which your every whim and desire can be fulfilled by a beautiful, charming, and sexually adventurous female robot.
Wealthy entrepreneur Zayden Beckett (Biehn) can’t wait to invest… both professionally and personally. He settles on Arla, the most intelligent of the lot and specially programmed just for him. Unfortunately, the devious inventor of the Fembot has cut corners with Arla, using a different, inferior energy source.
She develops a mind of her own and a thought process which allows for jealousy. When Beckett begins to fall in love with a real woman, Arla goes on the attack.
Black earned the Penthouse Pet title in 2013, and met Blanc-Biehn during the American starlet’s shoot in Vienna for Penthouse Germany. Blanc-Biehn was so taken by Black they developed a character in Fembot specifically for her.
Fembot goes into production this month and is slated for release in 2015.
