Here’s The Life-Affirming Trailer for Fortress!


I’m still struggling to get back into my non-Halloween routine of regular posting.  If I remember correctly, I think I’ve had to deal with post-Horrorthon exhaustion every year since we first started the Shattered Lens.  It’s worth it, though!

Fortunately, a trailer a film like Fortress can only encourage me to get back in the swing of things!  Bruce Willis, Shannen Doherty, and Chad Michael Murray!?  Hell yeah!

Anyway, here’s the trailer:

Here’s The Trailer For True Story


The Wesley Snipes comeback continues in the upcoming series True Story. This series will also feature Kevin Hart in a serious role. To be honest, I think Kevin Hart can handle a serious role. It’ll be interesting to see if I’m right.

True Story drops on November 24th, on Netflix. Here’s the trailer:

Here’s The Trailer for the Wheel of Time!

And here’s the trailer:

Here’s The Trailer for A Hero


A Hero, which is the latest film from Iranian director Asghar Farhadi, was one of the most acclaimed films to play at Cannes this year and its release has definitely been highly anticipated here in the States. The film deals with a man who has been imprisoned for being unable to pay a debt. When he gets a two-day leave, he tries to convince the man to whom he owes money to forgive the debt. Apparently, things do not go as planned.

A Hero is Iran’s official entry for this year’s Best International Film Oscar. It will be released in the U.S. in early January of 2022.

Here’s the trailer:

Here’s The 2nd Trailer For House of Gucci!


At this point, it seems pretty clear that Ridley Scott’s House of Gucci is either going to be:

  1. A complete mess

or

2. A whole lot of sordid fun.

My personal hope is that it will be both.  With The Last Duel struggling at the box office, it’s also probably that House of Gucci is going to be Scott’s main Oscar contender this year.  It certainly seems likely to pick up a hair and makeup nomination, if just for making Jared Leto look like Jeffrey Tambor.

The 2nd trailer for House of Gucci dropped today.  And here it is!
