Infini (film trailer).

Here’s the trailer for Infini, which has actor Luke Hemsworth as the team leader of a military search and rescue unit which has to visit an off-world mining-facility to rescue someone called Whit Carmichael, the lone survivor of a “biological” outbreak. Another bug hunt which won’t be paying licence fees to the Aliens franchise, then. […]
Cartel 2045 (film trailer).

Here’s a trailer for a B-movie scifi actioner called Cartel 2045 which explores what happens in the future when the evil Mexican drug cartels enlist war droids to take on the DEA and U.S. special forces. Looks like cheese, but spicy Mexican cheese!
The Cleanse (trailer).

Here’s a trailer for The Cleanse film, a comedy horror flick which centres on a heartbroken dude (actor Johnny Galecki who plays Leonard on the Big Bang Theory) who attends a spiritual retreat, only to discover that the course releases more than everyday toxins and traumatic experiences.

Fear The Walking Dead: Season 4 (supersize trailer).

Fear The Walking Dead‘s 4th season is almost upon us, with added “New People”. That’s as in, new people, to eat and get a bullet through the head, presumably?
Spock (aka Zachary Quinto) on what to expect from the next Trek movie.

Mr. Spock, aka Zachary Quinto, ruminates on the various plot treatments floating around for the next Star Trek film, as well as what Quentin Tarantino will bring to the next movie. I was rather hoping that the whole Quentin Tarantino does Star Trek-thing was an early April’s Fool. I’m not looking forward to Spock headbutting Kirk […]
