Australian actress Emma Hamilton is set to star in Fatal Beauty, a Mar Vista Entertainment indie feature written and directed by Joel Soisson. It follows Trevor and Michelle Gustafson (Hamilton) who have what most would think is the typical suburban life. When new neighbors move in next door, tensions between Michelle and Trevor build up, and sinister motives from neighbors turn this quiet neighborhood into a place of chaos, shame, and fear. Margret Huddleston, Michael Leahy, and Lori Leahy are producing the project which will begin filming this month. Hamilton, whose credits include the Australian series, Hyde & Seek, and Showtime’s The Tudors, is repped by The Rosenzweig Group, Abrams Artists and Troika in the UK.

Watch the first trailer for A Buddy Story, Gavin Bellour, Elisabeth Moss and Lee Garlington. Marc Erlbaum directs and scripts the film which opens on VOD on May 15th and tells the tale of Buddy (Gavin Bellour), a struggling NYC musician touring the northeast with his pet turtle. Buddy's neighbor Susan (Elisabeth Moss) seeks an opportunity for escape from her abusive boyfriend, and tags along on Buddy's tour. From a rough biker bar to a 100-year-old's birthday party and other odd stops along the way, Buddy and Susan come to realize that it's not the road's end that matters, but rather the road itself. The route to happiness is long and bumpy, better bring some good tunes along for the ride. Pic is produced by Michael Leahy, Aaron Ockman and Scott Shiffman.

“Suckazzz…” —John Gulager, Feast franchise director
Ah, Feast III…the most fun you’ll ever have being rapped on the chin by a franchise’s third installment. Chin-checks are no fun—a terrible bruise occurs, and turns purple, blue, then fades into an embarrassing green-yellow during the healing process.
Enough of that, though; have you ever seen a monster shit out a human head? I have now, and I can tell you that a close-up is the way to go when filming the act. Nobody wants to see a creature swallow a beautiful woman’s noggin whole, then grunt, strain and push it out of its greasy ass from a distance. That would be pretentious. Instead, jam the camera up against the monster’s oozing cheeks while it struggles to release the head, then give the audience what they really want: a static shot of the head thumping on the...

Better than the first Pulse remake (but what isn’t?) but not as good as its predecessor, Pulse 3 is a disappointing but nonetheless interesting direct follow-up to the events depicted in Pulse 2.
Taking place seven years after the previous entry (which was reviewed here ), the new sequel has young heroine Justine now played as a 17-year-old by Brittany Finamore. Justine, whose parents were killed in the previous film (spoiler alert?), is living with the foster parents who rescued her during the climax of Pulse 2, in a shantytown located as far away as possible from the wireless technology that summons the spirits of the dead the way honey attracts bees. But as she’s a bored and restless teenager who longs to escape from home and go out into the world, Justine is lured via an abandoned laptop computer into a surreptitious on-line friendship with someone named Adam, who coerces...

It's been a while since we heard much about Pulse 3, the Joel Soisson-helmed second sequel to the American remake nobody asked for. But since the DVD drops in just a few weeks -- December 23rd to be exact -- Genius Products and The Weinstein Company have released the box art for the disc along with a couple of choice stills.
According to the press release, Pulse 3 takes place seven years after the phantom invasion, and the survivors on Earth have settled into a primitive lifestyle completely void of technology. That is, until sixteen-year-old Justine is lured into the city where her curiosity gets the best of her as she unwillingly unleashes the deadliest digital invasion yet.
The bonus features to be included on the DVD are as follows:
