A new clip for Stoker has been released online via Vulture, showcasing the somewhat creepier side of Matthew Goode and Nicole Kidman.
Stoker, of course, is director Chan-Wook Park’s first attempt at a feature film completely in English, and judging from the already released pictures and trailer, it looks as if language holds no bearing when it comes to good filmmaking. This latest clip demonstrates this fact quite seductively through a seemingly secret slow dance. | Full Story

A clip of Jonathan Levine’s Rom-Zom-Com, Warm Bodies, has made its way online, giving the world the first glimpse of life as a zombie. The post-apocalyptic film offers a different take on a concept that has been told, retold, bent up, and spit out in every kind of way — a world infested with flesh-eating zombies.
While we don’t know how he and the others were made into the living dead, the clip features Nicholas Hoult as a zombie whose only memory of life is his first name began with R. When he eventually has a run-in with the girlfriend of one of his victims, his human emotions miraculously return. Yikes! A zombie with human emotions, could anything be more frightening? | Full Story

A new clip from This Is 40 has shown that writer/director Judd Apatow has not lost his touch when it comes to observational humor. What’s more, he’s shown that he still knows what it takes to satisfy a certain demographic by appealing to their most basic of wants: Megan Fox in a bikini.

The clip begins by showing a pair of hapless young people mid-chase. They hunker down in a barn as Leatherface approaches from about 70 yards away, revving his mechanical weapon with purposeful antagonism. The couple shuts the door to the barn and arm themselves with a shotgun and a shovel, putting the former to sensible use against the madman. | Full Story
One of the hallmarks of the James Bond film series, right up there with a certain drink, introducing oneself beginning with the last name, and an uncomfortable strain of misogyny, is the opening credit sequence. For Skyfall, Adele belted out the chords of the movie’s theme song, while graphics designed by Daniel Kleinman played out on the screen. This is the sixth time Kleinman has done the opening credits for a Bond film. | Full Story
