One of the films I've reported about a couple of times last year, since it was shot here in Serbia, CHERNOBYL DIARIES has finally released its first trailer.
Coming from Oren Peli, the director of PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, and premiering this May, the story of this horror film revolves around a group of young friends who find themselves stranded in the abandoned Russian town of Pripyat, near the Chernobyl nuclear disaster site, and they discover they are not alone. I'm guessing they've chosen Serbia's capital Belgrade to shot the film there since it still has countless ruins left after the Americans have bombarded one of the biggest cities in that part of the Europe turning centuries old buildings, bridges, schools, houses and monuments into rubble and dust quicker than any nuclear catastrophe would do it. The cast of the film is lead by handsome pop star Jesse McCartney.
And to brighten the horror day a bit :) here's the first trailer for dramatic comedy THE PERFECT FAMILY in which it seems that Kathleen Turner will again play something similar to her legendary SERIAL
MOM. She plays a suburban mother and devout Catholic Eileen Cleary who has always kept up appearances. When she runs for the Catholic Woman of the Year title at her local parish, an award she has coveted for years, her final test is introducing her family to the board for the seal of approval. Now she must finally face the nonconformist family she has been glossing over for years. Her gay daughter, Shannon (Emily Deschanel), a successful lawyer, is about to marry her life partner Angela (Angelique Cabral). Her unhappily married son Frank Jr. (Jason Ritter) is cheating on his wife with the local manicurist. And Eileen's own marriage to a recovered alcoholic is pulling at the seams.... The film is out this May.
HOLLYWOOD SPY HEADLINES
It seems that after playing evil king Hyperion in worldwide blockbuster IMMORTALS last year, Mickey Rourke is planning to continue in the same manner: he will appear in action western DEAD IN TOMB
STONE which follows Guerrero Hernandez (Danny Trejo), the leader of a Mexican group of outlaws who is double-crossed by his half-brother (Anthony Michael Hall) while trying to break him out of prison. One year later, Hernandez makes a deal with the Devil (Mickey Rourke) to be resurrected so he can seek revenge on his half-sibling, in a town fittingly named Tombstone. The shooting starts next week. Speaking of the unholy beings, "Deadline" reports that comic book GRAVEL will get its movie adaptation: it follows William Gravel, a soldier in the British S.A.S. who uses his skills in dark magic to moonlight and battle supernatural beings for clients in order to make some extra cash. Meanwhile, interesting piece of news for the fans of THE WALKING DEAD, which just finished its second season with a shocking finale, is that Daryl's brother
Merle is coming back in the 3rd season. As you remember they've left him handcuffed on top of a building and he cut off his hand in order to escape the zombies. It's not known if he will appear as a zombie or maybe as a member of a new survivor settlement lead by the new character, evil Governor, who will bring trouble to our heroes in the Fall
run of the show. The Michonne woman, who appeared in the finale, an utterly crazy woman wielding a katana (she lead two zombies on a chain, apparently her boyfriends whom she cut off arms and jaws so that they couldn't bite her after they've become zombies), played by Danai Gurira, has been officially added to the third season cast as well, and will become a regular.
