There’s a gold standard that horror hosts are held to. The icons become as popular as the movies that they show. Zacherley, Elvira, and Vampira are some of the names that come to mind, all of them inherently macabre in their own way. Most horror hosts have something ooky and spooky about them. And then there’s the one and only Joe Bob Briggs. Joe Bob is his own sort of creature, a Drive In Cowboy who loves blood, breasts, and beasts… and going on long, amazing rants about all the things he has a problem with in the world.

Revenge is in the air, and Eli Roth has resurrected the Death Wish franchise with Bruce Willis stepping into the Charles Bronson role from the 1974 Michael Winner film. He is joined by Vincent D’Onofrio, Elisabeth Shue and Breaking Bad’s Dean Norris in the key roles. Certainly having Roth behind the camera directing a Joe Carnahan adaptation would certainly have helped to bring in the fine cast, and today the film sees the insides of the UK’s picture houses.
To give you a taste of what’s in store we have an exclusive clip featuring Willis and D’Onofrio at a critical point of Willis’ character’s journey.

When does a slasher slip over into the surreal? Usually when you start with a boy emerging fully dressed from a lake, who catches a bus to a church, where a priest laments on the nature of sin while cross cutting to a group of six 20-somethings from all walks of (okay, North American) life? This is the first 15 minutes of The Redeemer (1978) folks, and you will get your bearings as the group of six gather for a high school reunion where they’re given a bloody Ted talk on sin and redemption from a multiple-masked killer in the spirit of Terror Train (1980) - if that spirit had been around two years previous. Not only is it a touch prescient, it’s surprisingly creepy as hell through not only the killer’s various guises, but an insidiously Christian treatise on what it deems modern society’s “ills”. But, you know,...

Bernardo Bertolucci was barely out of his teens when the first feature film he directed, La Commare Secca, based on a story by Pier Paolo Pasolini, premiered in 1962. In today’s poetry-averse art house environment, his influence surfaces only sporadically — perhaps most clearly in the impulsive, unabashed aesthetics of Paolo Sorrentino — but his filmography remains strong and singular. Nothing feels quite like a Bertolucci film, with its peculiar, poetic fusion of the sensual, the political, and the spiritual. Bertolucci is 73 now, and, because of a series of botched back surgeries, confined to a wheelchair. His newest film, […]...

Bernardo Bertolucci will preside over the International Jury for the Competition of the 70th Venice International Film Festival (28 August – 7 September 2013), which will award the Golden Lion and other official prizes.
“Very few directors can claim a lifetime experience so passionately committed to contemporary cinema like Bertolucci’s. His work has explored with insatiable curiosity the world around us and the ever evolving language of film, discovering and bringing to our attention what’s most vital and beautiful. Such commitment to “the present” is one of the finest services that cinema can render to itself and is one of the many reasons why Bertolucci is the ideal Jury President” stated the Director of the Venice Film Festival Alberto Barbera.
“I cheerfully accept to chair the jury of the 70th Venice International Film Festival,” stated Bernardo Bertolucci . “This is my second time. In 1983 the Venice Film Festival was celebrating its 40th edition.

Acclaimed Italian director Bernardo Bertolucci is to receive the first annual 'Honorary Palme d'Or' award at this year's Cannes Film Festival. While the prize has previously been handed out to filmmakers who had never won the Palme d'Or throughout their careers, Bertolucci's tribute will mark the beginning of a new annual tradition at the festival where honorary awards will be bestowed. Bertolucci first gained notoriety in the 1960s with a series of films, including La commare secca and Before The Revolution, which questioned accepted norms in Italian society at the time. The controversial Last Tango in Paris, starring Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider, brought Bertolucci to international prominence and earned him his first 'Best (more)...
