Awake! DEAD RISING: WATCHTOWER Slices Across The Globe {0}
Video game movies are coming back, or at the very least a Dead Rising film is on its way. The Capcom franchise, which mixes open-world adventure with fast-paced zombie-killing action and the creative joy of a world of weapons to try your hand at taking the undead down a few limbs, is launching its first feature film, Dead Rising: Watchtower this July.

Review: CHILDREN OF SORROW (2012) {0}
Not long ago we got two very cool genre films that had very similar stories. They were the British sci-fi film Dredd and the Indonesian action flick The Raid. Some fans think it’s obvious that one group of filmmakers stole the “lone hero battling his way up a building that’s absolutely packed with vicious henchmen” concept from the other group, but given how simplistic that premise actually is – and given that both films were in production around the same time – it seems unlikely that there was any intentional thievery afoot. (Plus both movies kick ass, so there’s your happy ending.)

Review: GOLDBERG & EISENBERG (2013) {0}
Anyone who covers (or at least obsesses over) the current landscape of international horror cinema should be pleased to notice when a specific country speaks up and bangs out a fresh handful of genre films. Over the years we’ve seen eruptions like these from Spain, France, Ireland, Japan, and a dozen other nations that don’t ordinarily produce a lot of genre films that make a big splash overseas – and now we can add Israel to that list.
