Here’s The Trailer for Civil War!

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Alex Garland has got a new film coming out in April of 2024.  It’s entitled Civil War and it imagines a near future in which America slips into …. well, civil war.  There’s a lot of talented people in the cast, like Kirsten Dusnt and Jesse Plemons.

That said, the trailer dropped today and it almost feels like a parody of these type of films.  I almost laughed out loud when I heard the newscaster say “three-term president” because it just felt like such an awkward piece of exposition.

Anyway, I could be wrong and there are a lot of talented people involved with this film.  So, here’s the trailer:

Here’s The Latest Trailer For Dune: Part Two

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Dune: Part Two was originally supposed to be out already.  It was scheduled for an October 20th release but the date was pushed back several times, first to November and then, as a result of the SAG-AFTRA strike, to March of 2024.  Despite all the online angst over it being moved back, it’s perhaps the best thing that could have happened to this film as it now seems to be the 2024 film that everyone is anticipating the most.

(Certainly, it’s the most anticipated March release that I can ever remember.)

Here’s the just-released third trailer for Dune: Part Two!

Here’s The Trailer For Handling The Undead

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Handling the Undead may be a zombie film but, as it’s based on a novel from the author of Let The Right One In, I think it is safe to assume that it will hardly tell a standard story of the undead.

The film will be premiering at Sundance in January.  Watch the trailer below!

6 Trailers For The End Of The Third Week Of Horrorthon

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

With the third week of Horrorthon coming to a close and the final week about to start, I have to really ask myself, “Where does the time go!?”

Well, as I consider that, why not check out this special Horrorthon edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Film trailers!

  1. Ruby (1977)

In this film from 1977, the great Piper Laurie plays Ruby, a former gun moll who owns her own haunted drive-in theater!

2. Drive-In Massacre (1976)

Ruby was not the only 70s horror film to be sent at a drive-in.  There was also 1976’s Drive-In Massacre!

3. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

And what were they all watching at the drive-in?  Depending on the year, they could have very well have been watching the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre!

4. The Legend of Boggy Creek (1972)

Another drive-in of the 70s was this documentary about the search for the Fouke Monster.

5. The Town That Dreaded Sundown (1976)

The Legend of Boggy Creek was such a hit that director Charles B. Pierce was able to follow up with The Town That Dreaded Sundown.

6. The Evictors (1979)

The Town That Dreaded Sundown was a bit enough hit that Charles B. Pierce was able to follow it up with The Evictors.

Such is the power of the drive-in!

6 Trailers For October 13th, 2023

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Happy Friday the 13th!  Since today is a special day, here’s a special edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Film trailers!  The theme today is …. DON’T GO IN THE WOODS!

  1. Friday the 13th (1980)

Obviously, I had to start things off with the trailer for the original Friday the 13th!  This trailer puts a lot of emphasis on Marcie’s dream about the rain turning into blood.  I have to say that is a pretty intense dream.

2. The Burning (1981)

After Friday the 13th, there were many movies about the dangers of going to camp.  The Burning is one of the best-remembered.  Seriously, I’m so glad that I never did the camp thing.

3. Madman (1982)

I reviewed Madman earlier this month but I’m going to share the trailer again.  Seriously, camping is bad but yelling, “Madman Marz!” is apparently even worse.

4. Sleepaway Camp (1983)

As bad as those camps are, they’re a picnic compared to Sleepaway Camp!

5. Without Warning (1980)

Of course, it’s not just camps that are dangerous.  As the trailer for Without Warning shows, you never know what you might run into in the woods.

6. The Guardian (1990)

Not even the trees are safe!

6 Trailers For The First Day Of Horrorthon

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Today is the first day of our annual October Horrorthon!  In honor of our favorite time of the year, here is a special edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Film Trailers.

Enjoy and happy Horrorthon!

  1. House of Frankenstein (1944)

All of the great Universal monsters came together for this film from 1944!

2. House of Dracula (1945)

Everyone had so much fun during House of Frankenstein that it only makes sense that they would get back together a year later for House of Dracula!

3. Frogs (1972)

House of Frogs?  No, just ordinary but vengeful frogs.  Reportedly, this was one of Andy Warhol’s favorite films.

4. The Being (1983)

The frogs aren’t the only ones looking for revenge.

5. Waxwork (1988)

With all those monsters out there, perhaps it’s best to just hide out in the local wax museum….

6. Waxwork 2: Lost In Time (1992)

Seriously, the wax museum seems like the best place!

Happy October!  Happy Horrorthon!

Here’s The Trailer for The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial Trailer!

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Here’s the trailer for William Friedkin’s final film, an adaptation of The Caine Mutiny Court Martial Trailer.  The film will be premiering on Showtime in October and I look forward to seeing Kiefer Sutherland in the role of Lt. Commander Queeg.

Here’s The Trailer For The Exorcists!

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

David Gordon Green is not the only filmmaker with an Exorcist film coming out.

The Asylum also has an Exorcist film coming up and if I have to choose between the two, you know that I’m going to go with The Asylum every time!

Here’s the the trailer for The Exorcists, from the Asylum:

Here’s The Second Trailer For The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

To be honest, I’m not really sure that we need a film version of the prequel to The Hunger Games.  The first two Hunger Games adaptations were excellent but the two-part conclusion was a bit of a bore.  The only thing that really set The Hunger Games apart from any of the other YA dystopian adaptations out there was the presence of actors like Jennifer Lawrence, Donald Sutherland, Woody Harrelson, and Philip Seymour Hoffman and none of them are going to be in the prequel.

That said, everything gets a prequel nowadays and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes is due to be released in November of this year.  So, for all of you who were like, “I wish I knew more about President Snow’s youth,” have at it!

Here’s the just-released second trailer:
