Porn Star Alexis Texas Battles ‘Bloodlust Zombies’

alexis-texas-bloodlust-zombies

Professional cock-accessory Alexis Texas makes her mainstream movie debut in Breaking Glass Pictures and Vicious Circle Films’ low-budget horror comedy Bloodlust Zombies. The gorgeous 25-year-old performer, best known for her big ass and totally understandable fear of black cock, plays a research lab survivor trying to escape a viral outbreak.

Peep the trailer:

The film’s official synopsis reads:

Like typical 9-to-5 cubicle dwellers, the workers at Zlantoff Industries are just counting down the minutes and seconds by the end of the day. And just like any office, mishaps are bound to happen: spilt coffee, jammed fax machines … mutant viral outbreaks.

When a chemical spill in the lab on an otherwise uneventful weekday puts the office on emergency lockdown, the staff unwittingly becomes the first test subjects for an experimental, biological weapon – and if the mutant virus doesn’t spur cannibalistic murder, the passive aggressive office banter will.

Bloodlust Zombies is a rollercoaster ride of sex, gore and action.

Alexis Texas is the star of such romantic fare as Anal Buffet 5, Bikini Clad Cum Sluts, Valley of the Facesitters, and Destination Tonsils 2 (the Empire Strikes Back of the series). She is part of the growing number of fuck-performers making the jump to indie-horror (See: Riley Steele, Jasmine St. Claire, Belladonna, Maria Lapiedra, Sora Aoi and Sasha Grey).

Breaking Glass Pictures is the studio behind Half Moon, a werewolf frightener starring porn star and Penthouse Pet Tori Black. Bloodlust Zombies arrives on DVD on July 5.

Katie_Aselton_The_League

Actress Katie Aselton, best known for her comedic role as Jenny MacArthur on FX’s fantasy-football series “The League,” is set to star and direct an all-girl thriller written by husband and “League” costar MarK Duplass (Cyrus).

Black Rock follows a group of vacationing girlfriends as their private island getaway turns horrific when they discover that they’re not alone. Joining Aselton on screen are Kate Bosworth (Superman Returns) and Lake Bell (Burning Palms).

Says Aselton (via press release):

I grew up watching classic suspense films and have long had the idea of making a girl-based thriller where the threat to the characters is very real, and the audience is left with the terrifying thought ‘this could happen to me.

Exploring that kind of movie excites me as a filmmaker, and I am elated to have Lake Bell and Kate Bosworth alongside me on the journey.

Aselton made her directorial debut last year with the relationship comedy The Freebie. The 32-year-old former beauty queen will also return for season three of “The League.”

Bosworth recently wrapped Sony Screen Gems’ remake of Sam Peckinpah’s controversial 1971 home-invasion thriller Straw Dogs, in which she’s rumored to go nude. Bell, who starred on NBC’s sea-monster series “Surface,” will next be seen in A Good Old Fashioned Orgy.

coffin-poster

If some sadistic psycho told you that your wife and her lover were buried six feet under ground in a pine box with only 75-minutes worth of oxygen to breathe, would you risk your life to rescue the two-timing hussy or would you pour a bowl of Froot Loops and sit down to watch some HBO?

If you’re the cuckold clown in Kipp Tribble and Derik Wingo’s ridiculously plotted thriller Coffin, you do the former. Take a peep:

The film’s synopsis reads:

A masked stranger reveals to Jack that his estranged wife and her lover are buried underground in a wooden box and their oxygen will run out in 75 minutes. He must engage in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with the masked stranger in order to save his wife…and himself.

This film just makes no sense to me. What guy would ever save both his cheating wife’s life and that of the man fucking her? A more realistic scenario would have been to have the guy’s wife buried underground with his mistress.

Yes, they’d be upset upon meeting each other—but, after facing death, they’d surely be up for some three-way action with the guy who just pulled them away from death’s clutches. Now, that’s the kind of realism they just don’t teach kids at film school.

Coffin stars Kevin Sorbo (Sorority Party Massacre), Sunny Doench (Downloading Nancy), Bruce Davison (“Ghost Whisperer”), Moksha McPherrin (Catacombs), Johnny Alonso (“Dawson’s Creek”), Candace Kita (Barb Wire), Luke Barnett (“MANswers”), and Patrick Barnitt.

No word on a release date yet.

AnnaSophia-Robb-Pan

After headlining the sappiest shark movie ever made, AnnaSophia Robb is diving into darker waters for her next project. The young Soul Surfer star is joining Aaron Eckhart (Battle: Los Angeles) and Sean Bean (“Game of Thrones”) in Pan, director Ben Hibon’s twisted reimagining of the classic Peter Pan tale.

Set in the present, Pan finds former detective Hook (Eckhart) on the trail of a childlike predator with the help of his one remaining ally on the force, Det. Smee (Bean). Robb is playing Wendy, one of Pan’s surviving victims eager to leave a mental asylum to aid in his capture.

Production is slated to begin in Eastern Europe come October.

Kelly Brook Returns to Horror In Psych-Thriller ‘Removal’

Kelly-Brook-Bikini-Removal

Silvatar Media has released a trailer for first-time director Nick Simon’s upcoming psych-thriller Removal. Billy Burke (Drive Angry) stars as a highly medicated cleaning service employee working an all-nighter at an Italianate mansion while haunted by memories of a brutal murder/suicide he once witnessed.

Removal costars Emma Caulfield (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”), Mark Kelly (Dead & Breakfast), Oz Perkins (Star Trek), Elliot Gould (Oceans 11), and the drop-dead gorgeous Kelly Brook, who is coming off Alexandre Aja’s well-reviewed fish-&-chicks frightener Piranha 3-D.

Brook, who plays real estate agent Kirby, talked to the Khaleej Times about the film and her character last December while attending the Dubai International Film Festival.

She said:

Kirby is trying to sell this house and needs the signature of Cole’s wife, but she’s gone missing. She goes into this situation and sees that all isn’t what it seems. You can’t pull the wool over her eyes, but you don’t know what part anyone else is playing. It’s a very psychological movie.

Brook’s additional horror creds include Survival Island, House of 9, and Ripper. No word yet on a release date for Removal, but I’ll keep you posted because you saved my life in ‘Nam. Consider us even.

Charlie-Hunnam-Pacific-Rim

“Sons of Anarchy” star Charlie Hunnam is set to star in director Guillermo Del Toro’s mecha-influenced robot movie Pacific Rim. Written by Clash of the Titans scribe Travis Beacham, the film revolves around human-piloted robots built to defend the earth against giant alien creatures.

Hunnam, best known for his role as Jackson “Jax” Teller on the F/X’s biker drama “Sons of Anarchy,” will play the heroic pilot who must save the day … or not. Plot details are being kept under wraps. The film marks Del Toro’s return to the director’s chair since 2008’s Hellboy II: The Golden Army.

Pacific Rim goes into production in September. Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. are looking at a summer 2013 release.

blood-Night-Mary-Hatchet

Lionsgate has set a June 14 home video release date for Sideshow Pictures long-delayed slasher Blood Night: The Legend of Mary Hatchet, starring horror hottie Danielle Harris (Hatchet 2) and genre bad-boy Bill Moseley (Manson Girls).

The film’s synopsis reads:

A local tradition of celebration turns deadly for a group of teenage friends. While celebrating the anniversary of the death of local student and axe murderer, Mary Hatchet, they find themselves face-to-face with their own mortal reality. Haunted, the friends run from the bloody rampage, but as the seemingly endless night wears on, they learn that they must expose the truth behind the urban legend of Bloody Mary.

Man, this is exactly why I’m so glad I didn’t have any friends as a teenager. You can’t get killed by creepy spirits when you spend your Friday nights playing Risk with your granddad and his blind pooch Elmer.

Danielle Harris made Clatto’s list of The 20 Hottest Women Working in Horror/Sci-fi Today.

The-Mermaids-Pirates-4-Premiere

Disney hosted the world premiere for Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides this weekend at the Disneyland amusement park in Anaheim, CA. Unfortunately, event organizers told me the shindig was over at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia so all I got were photos of gang affiliated young men (Wut up, Lil Puppet!).

Thankfully, the pros did make it out to the Happiest Place on Earth to take shots of POC’s star Penelope Cruz (in a form-fitting off-the-shoulder Marchesa evening gown), the film’s much buzzed-about sirens (pictured above), and party guest Vanessa Hudgens showing leg for the cameras.

Also in attendance: Johnny Depp, Ian McShane, Astrid Berges Frisbey (she plays Mermaid Syrena), Geoffrey Rush, Rolling Stone-turned-franchise-player Keith Richards, producer Jerry Bruckheimer, and director Rob Marshall.

‘Dexter’ Season 6 Has a Teaser, New Characters Revealed!

dexter-season-6

If your dark passenger is threatening to drive you up the wall unless it gets some “Dexter” action, rest assured that Showtime is coming to the rescue. The first official trailer for season six of the Emmy and Golden Globe winning series has hit the web.

Peep it:

OK …  it’s not much, but it definitely gets the blood pumping. As-of-now, there is no word on what new faces will join the cast for season six and plot points remain under wraps. However, a leaked casting call reveals some interesting characters to come (via TV Line):

  • Jamie: Described as an outgoing and fun Latina in her mid-20s, this Florida native relocates to Miami for grad school.
  • Chicago Mike: New thirtysomething African-American homicide detective who possesses a finely turned BS detector. The Windy City native does not play well with Dexter others.
  • Louis: A buddy of Masuka’s (C.S. Lee) who joins MMP as a new lab intern. Role calls for a Caucasian actor in his 30s who is “attractive in his own way.”

The Louis role makes me nervous for Masuka. I’m hoping they don’t off the little freak. If they do, I would love to see Masuka exposed as some super-smart serial rapist or sex fiend.

(UPDATE: Colin Hanks, son of Oscar winer Tom Hanks, has been cast in an pivotal and antagonistic role. Details at this point remain hush-hush)

“Dexter” goes into production this month. Season six premieres this fall.
