Esta semana hablamos de Resident Evil esta vez con Zach Cregger detras de las camaras y guion, que viene hacer la suya, y parece que le funciono este cheque en blanco que le dieron. Y repasamos las peliculas anteriores peliculas que se estrenaron en el cine.Ademas hablamos de algunas peliculas que estuvimos viendo y viene con mucho de Matt Johnson.
Nach dem Hype um seine Grusel-Highlights "Barbarian" und "Weapons" hat Genre-Hoffnung Zach Cregger für seinen neuen Film ausgerechnet das "Resident Evil"-Franchise als Grundlage auserkoren. Ist es dem erklärten Fan gelungen, endlich eine rundum gelungene Verfilmung der wegweisenden Survival-Horror-Reihe auf die Beine zu stellen? Das diskutiert Markus in einer neuen Ausgabe unserer Kooperations-Podcasts zu Videospieladaptionen ausführlich mit Kollege Andre von The Pod.

Giappone Spettinato è la chiacchierata informale di Giappone nel Mondo, registrata in macchina mentre torno a casa: niente scaletta, niente schermi, niente dati letti al volo.Questa puntata nasce da un'uscita al cinema: sono appena tornato dalla visione di Hope, il nuovo film di Na Hong-jin (il regista di The Wailing), presentato a Cannes 2026. Non ha vinto nulla ma ha lasciato la sala senza fiato per la prima mezz'ora — un film di caccia, ambientato in un paesino coreano dove viene trovato un bovino sbranato, che a un certo punto ribalta completamente la prospettiva. Nel cast Michael Fassbender e Alicia Vikander, con degli effetti visivi che — parlo anche da chi lavora nel settore da più di dieci anni — funzionano benissimo.Vi racconto perché il cinema asiatico, e coreano in particolare, mi sta stupendo sempre di più: una qualità cinematografica diversa da quella americano-centrica a cui siamo abituati, con narrazioni e viaggio dell'eroe che non seguono gli schemi soliti.Prima di chiudere vi parlo anche di Resident Evil, appena visto al cinema: il film del regista di Barbarian che conferma il trend dei film tratti da videogiochi, dopo Super Mario e Sonic, ambientato nel mondo del gioco del 1996 ma con una trama tutta sua.Vi anticipo anche cosa arriva nelle prossime settimane: gli speciali di Halloween e il nuovo festival del cinema del terrore, più la live settimanale di Plot-Twister di domani sulla nostalgia per l'era Heisei.Ditemi nei commenti se avete visto Hope o se andrete a vedere Resident Evil — mi piacerebbe sapere cosa ne pensate.-- In questa puntata si parla anche di: --- The Wailing, il film precedente di Na Hong-jin- Trend dei film tratti da videogiochi (Mario, Sonic, Lara Croft)- Speciali di Halloween e nuovo festival del cinema del terrore- Live domenicale di Plot-Twister sulla nostalgia per l'era Heisei- Stato del cinema italiano secondo Luca-- Precisazioni --- Resident Evil è un famoso videogioco del 1996 giapponese della Sony, uscito per PlayStation → Resident Evil (Biohazard) è stato sviluppato e pubblicato da Capcom nel 1996; Sony ha prodotto solo la console PlayStation su cui è uscito, non il gioco- L'attrice del cast di Hope che ha fatto Tomb Raider ha fatto anche uno dei penultimi film di Guadagnino → Sono due attrici diverse, entrambe nel cast di Hope: Alicia Vikander ha fatto Tomb Raider, mentre Taylor Russell ha recitato in Bones and All (2022) di Luca Guadagnino-- Capitoli --00:00 Sigla00:10 Apertura: si torna dal cinema01:40 Hope di Na Hong-jin arriva da Cannes 202603:01 Al cinema in IMAX quasi vuoto03:59 Narrazione asiatica vs cinema americano04:27 La trama: il bovino morto e la caccia al mostro05:31 Il cast: Michael Fassbender e Alicia Vikander06:10 Effetti visivi tra critiche e sorprese06:43 Il film del giorno: Resident Evil07:48 Il trend dei film tratti da videogiochi09:12 Riscoprire il cinema asiatico (e quello italiano)09:53 Hope, il film coreano più costoso di sempre10:46 Anticipazioni: Halloween e il festival del terrore11:17 Domani la live di Plot-Twister sulla nostalgia Heisei-- Link utili --- Hope, il nuovo film di Na Hong-jin (Cannes 2026): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hope_(2026_film)- The Wailing, il film precedente di Na Hong-jin: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wailing_(2016_film)- Resident Evil (2026), il film di Zach Cregger: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resident_Evil_(2026_film)- Canale YouTube Plot-Twister (live del weekend): https://www.youtube.com/@plot-twister- Canale YouTube Giappone nel Mondo: https://www.youtube.com/@giapponenelmondo- Omotenashi Anime (Simone): https://www.youtube.com/@OMOTENASHIANIME- Instagram (fotografia e danza): https://www.instagram.com/lucavalletta81
De Moodfellas zijn terug voor jouw dosis film en serie nieuws! Edo en Stefano duiken in Resident Evil van Zach Cregger. Krijgen we eindelijk de spanning van de games op het witte doek? En hoeveel horror kan Stefano eigenlijk aan?Verder bespreken we het langverwachtte vervolg op Netflix , The Gentlemen seizoen 2, bespreken we de Emmy's en keren we terug naar het vervloekte eiland van Widow's Bay.

Veel rennen door Londen, weinig reden om te blijven kijken.. Plus de filmfacts van de week, pittige meningen en onze vertrouwde twijfelachtige grappen.
Efter "succeserne" med Barbarian og Weapons har Zach Cregger kastet sig over en af horrorens største franchises. Men er han overvurderet – eller er horrorfilmens nye messias ankommet? I denne omgang af ON THE ROAD har drengene været i biografen og se RESIDENT EVIL (2026) -den sjette film i serien. Har Cregger fundet opskriften på at genoplive serien – eller er det endnu et reboot forsøg på at få liv i en franchise, der burde have været begravet for længst? Som altid; ingen manuskript, ingen lange analyser! Direkte efter filmen og direkte fra hoften! UDEN SPOILERS
Get in, gang. We're going to Raccoon City. Sean is joined by Chris Ryan to discuss Zach Cregger's thrilling follow-up to his mega-successful ‘Weapons' with his video game adaptation ‘Resident Evil,' starring Austin Abrams. Before diving in, they react to a handful of movie news headlines, including Noah Baumbach leaving Netflix for Warner Bros. Clockwork, Quentin Tarantino publishing a new Cliff Booth novel, and John Leguizamo joining ‘Miami Vice ‘85'. Then, they giddily break down ‘Resident Evil' and gush over the countless reasons why the movie is absolutely incredible. Finally, they look into what the future holds for movie video game adaptations, and take a look at the history of horror-comedy genre mashups and talk through why it's so hard to pull off successfully.

Ben, Daniel Chin, and Joshua Rivera team up to break down the new 'Resident Evil' movie reboot, cowritten and directed by Zach Cregger. They discuss how the film compares to Cregger's previous work and the preexisting 'Resident Evil' film franchise, where it falls on the horror-humor spectrum, Cregger's approach to adapting the games, the prerelease fan response, whether the movie is better because it's a franchise film, and their favorite set pieces, gags, and Easter eggs. Then, in a clearly indicated closing spoiler section, they briefly share their thoughts on the ending of the movie.

Hello dear listeners! We've missed you! Sorry for our unexpected hiatus, sometimes life gets in the way. But we are back this week and there is plenty of news to talk about! First! Fandom IP. Zach Cregger's Resident Evil film releases this week, and he is not a fan of the RE fans. Is it worth it for an up and coming filmmaker to take on an IP these days? Secondly, AMC has announced they are opening up Leawood Films, a new independent movie distribution label? What does this mean? What movies can we expect? Is it weird that a theater chain is acquiring movies? And finally, we are deep in Film Festival season, so Josh and Willis throught it might be nice to discuss the role of the film festival in the modern industry. Who are they for? What films are they for? How have they changed? Lots to think about with this one. It is good to be back dear listener! -- Pixelsplitters is a conversation podcast that explores the film and tv news of the week, and examines where the film industry as a whole is headed. Sometimes we do Top 5 lists! Tune in weekly and nerd out with us.

Based on a book, The movie tells the story of survivors of a deadly pandemic traversing a post-apocalyptic landscape to find the origin of a mysterious radio transmission. Mike shares what made the movie unwatchable, the lack of chemistry among the leads and why it may be time for Ridley Scott to hang it up.

What if your favorite childhood TV show was actually a nightmare? This week, Bloody Good Horror reviews "Buddy", the bizarre new horror movie from "Too Many Cooks" creator Casper Kelly. What begins as a seemingly innocent children's program quickly becomes a surreal nightmare involving an orange unicorn, trapped children, looping episodes, and a world where happiness is mandatory. But "Buddy" is much more than just a creepy kids' show. We dig into the film's use of liminal horror, childhood nostalgia, emotional manipulation, abuse and compliance, and the unsettling idea of what happens when the cheerful veneer of children's entertainment starts to crack. We also discuss Keegan-Michael Key's wildly unsettling performance, the film's bizarre supporting characters, its increasingly disturbing mythology, and an ending that suddenly blows the entire world of *Buddy* wide open. Is "Buddy" a brilliant expansion of Casper Kelly's "Too Many Cooks" aesthetic, or does its surreal second half start to lose the thread? PLUS, Dr. Loomis gets horny in the new Halloween game and no one's happy about it, and Zach Cregger finds out what it's like to direct a film in a long running series... in the worst way possible. #BuddyMovie #BuddyHorrorMovie #TooManyCooks Learn more about your ad choices.

On episode 362 of the Awards Watch podcast, it's a full house with Awards Watch Editor-In-Chief joined by Executive Editor Ryan McQuade, Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello, contributors Mark Johnson and Jorge Tenreiro, and AW friend and confidante Christina Birro of Pop Culture Confidential, as we break down last weekend's Telluride Film Festival. It was another whirlwind Telluride for the group, with splashy world premieres including Jesse Eisenberg's The Debut, starring Julianne Moore and Paul Giamatti, Simon Stone's Elsinore, starring Andrew Scott and Olivia Colman, and the big talk of the festival, the surprise TBA of Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim's secret film You Can See Everything, about Theranos fraudster Elizabeth Holmes, which was shot with unprecedented access during the month before she went to prison in 2023. During our zippy and efficient conversation, we talk about our favorite films of the festival (where titles like Club Kid and La Bola Negra pop up), what everyone non-film and film awards-related at the festival was talking about (again, La Bola Negra and Club Kid) and our favorite moments from the many, many parties thrown during this very short window of cinephile celebration. You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music and more. You can also listen on the AW YouTube page. This podcast runs 46m58s. We'll be back next for the main show talking about director Zach Cregger's new Resident Evil film and with a recap of the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), which just kicked off. Music: "Modern Fashion" from AShamaleuvmusic (intro), "B-3" from BoxCat Games Nameless: The Hackers RPG Soundtrack (outro).

So much better than we expected! Natalie Grace in Lee Cronin’s The Mummy (2026) ★★★★ The first half of 2026 certainly made a statement in the horror genre. Reverberations will be felt across Hollywood as studios reassess what constitutes a blockbuster. The recent critical success of Sinners, Weapons, and The Substance appears to be bearing fruit. The results may have led to a diverse slate of offerings for 2026, and it is reflected in the wide array of horror offerings so far this year. If variety is your preference, then you have been in luck, so far. The unimaginable financial and critical success of Obsession and Backrooms, particularly given their low cost, have re-written the horror producer’s playbook, and will have a lasting impact for years to come. The Scariest Things evaluated what we’ve seen so far, and have come back with a report card of our favorites. The Mid Major – Large Indie Productions: It will be interesting to do an autopsy of 2026’s horror fare when we do our year end assessment. This year’s crop has been notably light on mid-major productions so far. The roaring successes we’ve seen thus far have been from the deep indie filmmakers. Backrooms, Undertone, Hokum, and Obsession. All original titles, and produced for less than $5 million. These are not the type of films you would typically predict would be box office hits. But, they outperformed any reasonable expectation, particularly startling for Backrooms and Obsession, which will have cinema economists trying to figure out the alchemy. The Major Studios: There were only a few major studio franchise sequels this year. All of them capable, but none of them superseding their source material. Scream 7 did very well at the box office, but it failed to make a big impression. Evil Dead Burn was a very violent, very intense outing that didn’t connect in the way its predecessors have. Scary Movie also did well on its $30 million budget, earning $210 million, its long layoff didn’t hurt its popularity, despite the derivative humor. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple was a hit with critics (including our own Liz Williams) but it’s turn from zombies may have hurt it in the box office, as it probably will not make its budget back. The notable big comeback was Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, which gives horror fans hope that Universal has gotten their monsterverse back on track, and remembered how to deliver a vicious movie with a good story. The Festival Circuit: Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get out to as many film festivals this year as we would have liked, but we still managed to review a lot of great small indie horror films. Our traditional rotation of SXSW, Overlook, Portland Horror, and Popcorn Frights all provided very interesting films from emerging filmmakers. Even the bigger festival this year were heavy on small indie productions, and there were a lot of good offerings. We didn’t discuss all of them in our Podcast, but you can review a lot of the movies we saw with links on the images below. There is an emerging trend of release schedules for many of the best independent horror films, relative to the festival circuit. Open at SXSW (Or sometimes Sundance), get some buzz, go to Overlook to validate the buzz, and then release in the early summer. It can be a big momentum builder. Last year it was The Ugly Stepsister (Oscar Nom), and Good Boy that were the big beneficiaries of that combination. This year it was Obsession, Hokum, and Leviticus. Sometimes Panic Fest will factor into the equation, depending on when runs relative to Overlook. Popcorn Frights still brought a massive catalogue for viewing, but this year was more reliant on reperatory films. Some of my favorite films this year were horror adjacent, and all of their streaming content was small indie productions. Our favorite local festival, The Portland Horror Film Festival had an unusually large amount of feature films, and the best part was that almost all of the directors participated in the festival. We were fortunate to get interviews with all of them. Check out our Podcasts for the interviews. It was a diverse group of films, and not a dud among them. What is Still Coming in 2026? Probably the most intriguing film still due out is a new take on Resident Evil by Zach Cregger, the director of Barbarian and Weapons. This is a major tonal shift for Sony. No more Mia Jovovic or Paul W.S. Anderson. Video game translations are usually dubious, and the franchise squandered its potential. It became more superhero and less horror. However, Sony is gambling that with the right creator, it might revitalize the legacy, and Cregger may inject real scares into this franchise for the first time since the original. We shall see. The trailer looks great. Other Mommy, which arrives on October 9, has some incredibly disturbing visuals. Jessica Chastain stars, and Rob Savage (Host) directs. This uncanny-valley movie came late to my radar and is intriguing. Later this August, the Insidious franchise is issuing Insidious: Out of the Further. Lin Shaye returns, Leigh Whannell writes this, and it has a banger trailer. This franchise has maintained some of the scariest PG-13 fare, but the sequels have been a gradual decline in quality. We’ll see how this goes. Beware Boiúna might give us the Anaconda movie we wish we got earlier this year, and wipe the slate clean from the Jack Black/Paul Rudd disappointment. It’s R-rated, and features reliable scream queen Jessica Rothe, along with Logan Marshall-Green and Kiana Madeira in the Amazon. The trailer impressed me with the snake’s monstrousness. Another fascinating man-vs-nature survival tale is Whalefall, a terrifying concept in which a scuba diver is in jeopardy of being consumed by a sperm whale if the giant squid the whale has snagged doesn’t kill him first. Clayface will attempt to bridge the superhero and horror genres, which is no easy feat. Will it have enough horror for horror fans, and will it have enough fealty to the Batman universe to appeal to the comic book fans? Mike Flanagan wrote it, and it promises real R-rated body horror, so it could be very interesting. Lastly, Robert Eggers’ period piece Werwulf is getting the full Eggers treatment, in monochrome and as moody as you could possibly want. Hopefully it will get the stink of the Wolf Man out of our popcorn. Just give me a great transformation scene, please. Keep an eye out for It Ends, a festival darling from 2025 which is finally getting a limited release this year. It is a brilliant, if melancholy purgatory metaphor. If you enjoyed Backrooms, you should check this film out if you are lucky enough to have it showing in a theater near you. Of course, some smaller films will come out of the shadows and inevitably make our end-of-the-top-10 lists, but this is what we know so far.
