People are climbing dangerously again in the Fall 2:Deadpoint trailer!


This past Saturday, I went to the movies to see Craig Gillespie’s Supergirl. This was one of the trailers before the film. Though I enjoyed Scott Mann’s Fall back in 2022 (not to be confused at all with 1997’s spicy romance film with the same name), I didn’t think there’d be a sequel for it. Thanks to Netflix and bingewatching, the popularity for the film soared and now here we are. The Spierig Brothers (DaybreakersJigsaw) are taking over the directing duties for the second film, with a third already in the works.

The film stars Harriet Slater (Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny) and Arsema Thomas (Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story), who are climbing places they just shouldn’t. 

Enjoy!

Trailer: Predestination


predestination-review

The Spierig Brothers have been two filmmakers whose work has been coming in under the radar since their cult-favorite horror film Undead came out in 2003. They followed this up seven years later with the vampire dystopian film Daybreakers.

Both films have their moments but (IMO) failed to reach the level of the filmmakers’ ambitions for both films.

It’s now been four years since Daybreakers and the brothers have a new film out and it’s another ambitions project that tackles the themes of time paradox and predestination hence the title of the film.

Predestination made it’s premiere at this year’s SXSW festival is Austin, Texas. It has since made a limited run in the US since late August.

Horror Scenes I Love: Daybreakers

I know some people like and even love the vampire film Daybreakers when it arrived in theaters in early 2010. I’m not one of those who love Daybreakers as my review can attest, but I did like some of the ideas brought up by The Spierig Brothers who wrote and directed the film. One could say that I begrudgingly like the film despite its many flaws.

One of the things I did like about this film was how unabashed it was in keeping the whole affair a rated-R affair. Unlike most vampire films which have come out the last decade or so this one doesn’t shy from the grue that others have. Daybreakers was definitely not of the Twilight branch of the vampiric subgenre.

My favorite scene in the film happens pretty much around the end of it. It saved the film from becoming a total dull, boring affair into one worthy of being talked about if just for this one scene. One could come into the film just at this scene alone and forget that they’re watching a vampire film but a zombie one instead. The gore was just so over-the-top and it’s staging so well-done that I couldn’t stop from having a silly grin of enjoyment from escaping.
