Stars: Dolph Lundgren, Kelsey Grammer, Aaron McPherson, Michael Paré, Christina Villa, Daniela Soto-Brenner | Written by Dolph Lundgren, Hank Hugues, Michael Worth | Directed by Dolph Lundgren
The press release for Wanted Man describes writer/director/star Dolph Lundgren’s character like this, “Johansen is an ageing detective, whose outdated policing methods have given the department a recent public relations problem.” Those outdated methods include beating up a suspect while making what could be taken as racist remarks, all in full view of a news crew.
In case that isn’t enough to let us know what he thinks of his neighbours to the South, we get to see him hang out at a strip club with some buddies, including Brenner, Hilts and Tinelli trading comments about how disgusting Mexicans are. And to cap off the night, he has to be stopped from attacking another Mexican in the parking lot.
In light of this,...

Director: Kai Blackwood.
Writers: Mark Reilly and Michael Cornacchia.
Grey Skies is certainly no Fire in the Sky, but that is too high a standard to aspire to. Instead, what this film does is to take some basic ideas, work with it and take a different direction that the television show "X-Files" tries to explore. Cinematographer Gavin Fisher certainly offers some beautiful visuals in the first act and keeps the imagery striking for the first half. But as for how well this flick will perform in a greater stage, that depends. This movie is at least off to a good start.
The mood is established right away with some music that conjures forth recollections of Mike Oldfield's "Tubular Bells." The tritonic soundscape is used sparingly. It establishes the fact that there will be a danger down the road.

A couple in the park to cut down a Christmas tree, find a Db in his underwear in the snow. Gibbs' (Mark Harmon) father, Jackson (Ralph Waite) turns up unexpectedly early. Gibbs asks whose fault it really is for him not being here sooner. As in years ago. Gibbs doesn't have cable and only a black and white TV, also he got rid of the guestroom too. He still has Kelly's bike. Gibbs is surprised he actually came. He needs curtains on his window, loved the snow effect. Tony (Michael Weatherly) "Man up chilly willy," he says to McGee (Sean Murray) and should embrace his inner "McGrizzly Adams." Ziva (Cote de Pablo) isn't cold and Tony refers to her as a "frigid ice queen" and she's cold blooded like a lady Komodo dragon. Ziva is wearing thermals. Good to know. Tony will give her $50 for them, well they won't fit...

Knowing what to use and when to use it is important for your success as an actor. I have had to learn this over and over again myself, both as an actor and as a coach. You can't bring the whole kitchen sink in with you every time you go to perform or audition. Nor can you "do nothing and just be natural." Good acting takes skill. Great acting takes skill and faith in your work. But what is the work?I moved to Los Angeles fresh from grad school and with a master's degree in theater. I landed a great agent, and when they started sending me out on auditions, I realized that I had no idea how to audition. You would think that they would teach auditioning in school, but they don't. I hit the streets and took many different classes. At times it feels like I have...

Grey Skies is a science fiction horror film from director Kai Blackwood (Cupcake) and writer Mark Reilly, who is a veteran of the sci-fi/horror genres with participation in The Matrix and The Strangers; the film will show at an exclusive showing in Hollywood June 29th. Fans of the macabre will appreciate the blending of these two genres as an early trailer for the film builds suspense by sharing the screams of the stalked, the tortured, and the antagonized.
The full trailer for Grey Skies here:
"The film follows a group of old college friends who reunite to relive their glory days by renting a beautiful cabin in the woods. As the bonding begins, a surprise arrival of mysterious antagonistic alien creatures (brilliantly created by Burman) forces the group to ban together and outwit them in order to survive. In addition to Reilly’s exceptional script, the character relationships lend...
