Rotten Tomatoes: Liked by 80% of the critics

This movie was released last year in China, and a release date for the US was just announced: September 9th. Coming with it is a new trailer:

Red State

Category: Horror
Subcategories: Kevin Smith, Abduction, Religion, Just In Case The Westboro Baptist Church Wasn't Scary Enough

The new red band trailer for Kevin Smith's first stab at a horror film (pun fully intended) with political overtones. The critics aren't very fond of this movie (33% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes), but Quentin Tarantino apparently loves it (big shocker, I know).



And here is the original teaser trailer that has much more of the horror vibe:

Tucker & Dale vs. Evil

Category: Horror
Subcategories: Comedy, Slasher Parody, That Guy from Firefly, Chipper Diving

Rotten Tomatoes: Liked by all 12 of the critics
Netflix: 4.2 stars

The New Red Band Trailer:

Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame

Category: Martial Arts
Subcategories: Chinese, Andy Lau, Sherlock-Holmesiness, General Awesometude

A new trailer for the movie that people are describing as "batshit crazy"

Wake Wood

Category: Horror
Subcategories: Zombie Children, That Rat Guy from Harry Potter

Rotten Tomatoes: Liked by 84% of critics, 37% of the masses (?)
Netflix: 3.5 stars

Conan The Barbarian

Category: Fantasy
Subcategories:  Swords & Sorcery, Ron Pearlman, Epic Asskickery

A Red-Band clip for the upcoming movie.

Intruders

Category: Horror
Subcategories: Clive Owen, Ghost? Boogieman? Demon?

The new trailer:

Dante 01

Category: Science Fiction
Subcategories: French, Space, Prison, Mad Scientists, No Budget for a Hairstylist

I think this movie gets a bad rap. I'm not saying it's great, but the statistics make it look like a SyFy product, and it is a lot better than that. It might be a matter of misled expectations. If you love science fiction, then it isn't a bad way to spend a couple of hours.

Rotten Tomatoes: Liked by 33% of the critics, 21% of the masses
Netflix: 2.5 stars
My Opinion: 5 out of 10

The Twilight Samurai

Category: Martial Arts
Subcategories: Japanese, Samurai, Yoji Yamada

Not a fast paced martial arts movie, but amazing. Even people that aren't fans of the martial arts genre will appreciate this movie.

Rotten Tomatoes: Liked by 99% of the critics, 93% of the masses
Netflix: 3.9 stars
My Opinion: 9/10

In Time

Category: Science Fiction
Subcategories: Justin Timberlake, Life Extension, Time, That Guy from The Big Bang Theory

Just out from ComiCon

Lunopolis

Category: Science Fiction
Subcategories: Independent, Moon, Giant Emeralds Of Power

This is apparently showing in festivals right now with no reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, but it is getting a lot of good press from the festival people. It isn't clear to me if this is a 'found footage' film or a fake documentary.

Paranormal Activity 3

Category: Horror
Subcategories: Ghosts, Found Footage, Prequels

The first trailer for the upcoming flick:

Acolytes

Category: Horror
Subcategories: Australian, Slasher, Serial Killers, Damn Kids Snooping Around...

One could argue that this is more of a thriller than a horror film, but if we're arguing about it, then it's close enough.

Rotten Tomatoes: Liked by 75% of the critics, 40% of the masses
Netflix: 2.6 stars

The Amazing Spider-Man

Category: Superhero
Subcategory: Spiders, Men, The Lizard, Reboot

Here's the teaser for the new, decidedly sad, Spider-Man

Attack the Block

Category: Science Fiction
Subcategories: English, Aliens, Alien Invasion, Movies In English Were I Might Still Turn The Subtitles On

The new trailer:

Black Lightning

Category: Science Fiction
Subcategories: Russian, Flying Cars, Flower Delivery

This is just too crazy not to tell the world about.

Rotten Tomatoes: No critic's reviews, liked by 43% of the masses
Netflix: 3.1 stars
