Porno and grindhouse flicks go hand-in-hand (or penis-in-hand). It's not a grindhouse flick without some soft-core action, and many of the classic New York grindhouses played actual hardcore porn. Following in the tradition of Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's Grindhouse, David Lord and Andre Madness have joined forces for a XXX grindhouse double feature, cleverly titled Grindhouse XXX and released through Adam & Eve. David Lord's "Student Assassin" segment stars Teagan Presley as a co-ed who gets herself in trouble when her cop girlfriend goes missing and Teagan breaks out the heavy artilery to get her back. Andre Madness brings the gore with "Massacre at Pine Lake," essentially Friday the...

Kellan Lutz may sparkle in sunlight but he is covered in blood in this new trailer for Arena, which arrives on DVD on October 11. The film was directed by Jonah Loop and also stars Samuel L. Jackson, Nina Dobrev, and Daniel Dae Kim.
Lutz plays David Lord, a firefighter who’s forced into modern-day gladiatorial combat on an online interactive website called “Death Games” on which viewers can watch the fights and vote on which warriors they would like to see live or die.The film looks pretty intense and has a heavy dose of action and blood. I also like the premise of someone being forced to fight, even though it's been used before.
Check out the trailer and share your thoughts:...

The movie trailer for Arena’, starring Twilight’s Kellan Lutz and Vampire Diaries actress Nina Dobrev has been rolled out the web, and so far the first look isn’t receiving positive reception. Many are calling the Jonah Loop directed fight movie and unoriginal rip off of the much loved 2000 movie Gladiator that featured Russell Crowe. The straight to DVD movie, set for release October 11th, doesn’t look promising. “David Lord finds himself forced into the savage world of a modern gladiatorial arena, where men fight to the death for the entertainment of the online masses.” Synopsis: ‘Arena’ its newest title, after being coined both ‘Deathgames’ and ‘The Killing Game, chronicles...

Here’s your first look at the trailer for “Arena” (formerly “Deathgames” before it was changed to “The Killing Game”), a new tournament fighting movie starring Samuel L. Jackson as the evil mastermind pitting the fighters against each other in front of some really bad green screen work and Kellen Lutz from “Twilight” and Tarsem Singh’s upcoming “Immortals”. It’s nothing you haven’t seen before; in fact, the film looks so generic that it’s downright painful. Really, it doesn’t look like they even tried to hatch a slightly original plot with this one. Hope you bought something nice with that paycheck, Sam. David Lord finds himself forced into the savage world of a modern gladiatorial arena, where men fight to the death for the entertainment of the online masses. Also starring Daniel Dae Kim (“Lost” and the new “Hawaii Five-o”) and Nina Dobrev (“The Vampire Diaries...

The first trailer for Kellan Lutz ("Emmett Cullen" in the Twilight Saga)'s Arena has been unveiled. In the film, Lutz stars as "David Lord," a man forced to into gladiator-style arena games where the public watches and interacts via broadcasts.
The Hollywood Reporter pegs it as being similar to The Hunger Games, and indeed there are some commonalities. It appears the gladiator bouts are organized by someone with an investment stake in the entertainment value of the outcome, and the public's involvement with the "games" specifically affects the competitors. Do you see any other similarities? There are, of course, big distinctions as well. Most obviously, the gladiators aren't children. Also, the fight landscapes appear to be more like Gladiator than anything in Suzanne Collins' series. I co ... by Samuel L. Jackson, Nina Dobrev, and Daniel Dae Kim in the ...

A trailer for fantasy fight-flick Arena, starring Samuel L. Jackson and Twilight: Breaking Dawn's Kellan Lutz, has been released online.

The film was originally titled 'Deathgames' and the plot sees David Lord (Lutz) taken prisoner and forced to battle to the death in a virtual gladiatorial arena. Jackson is on his best...

Last year you may remember hearing about a project called Deathsport (not related to the David Carradine classic), set to star Kellan Lutz as some "modern gladiator" and Samuel L. Jackson as the evil overlord making sure the battles are broadcast "for the entertainment of the online masses." Well it's finally here, thanks to YouTube (via Movieline) we have the first trailer for Arena, the new title for a film that might as well already be called one of the worst of the year. Remember how much you laughed watching Sam Jackson in Frank Miller's The Spirit? This is even worse. I suggest staying away, but you might have fun watching it. Watch the first official trailer for Jonah Loop's Arena, embedded via Apple: "There's no greater battle than the fight for your life." David Lord (Kellan Lutz) is forced into the savage world of a modern gladiator arena,...

Nina Dobrev is ready to take a bite out of the big screen. Dobrev, who stars on the CW hit The Vampire Diaries (TV) with Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley, will use her summer hiatus from the show to shoot the indie action movie Deathgames. According to the trade paper the Hollywood Reporter, Dobrev will join a cast that already includes Kellan Lutz of Twilight (2008) fame, Samuel L. Jackson, Daniel Dae Kim, James Remar, and Derek Mears. Kim, of course, just wrapped his run on Lost (TV), while Remar plays the title character's dad on Dexter (TV) and Mears most recently played Jason Voorhees in the Friday the 13th (2009) remake. The story -- previously entitled The Killing Game -- follows the plight of David Lord (Lutz), a young man who is abducted and immersed in a brutal life as a fighter in a contemporary gladiator arena.

Working Title and Story for New Jack Ryan Adventure: We're starting today's round-up with a bit of a long one. First reported back in October 2009, we learned Star Trek's new Captain Kirk would be taking on the role that once belonged to Harrison Ford, Alec Baldwin and Ben Affleck... that of Jack Ryan from Tom Clancy's series of novels. At that time the script penned by Hossein Amini (The Four Feathers) was being kept quiet. Since then Adam Cozad has come on to take a stab at the story and word has it the working title for the film is Moscow. The report also says it will not be an origin story and also will not be based on a Clancy novel, which makes sense since Amini's script was an original story in the first place, though it appears Amini's story may have been scrapped altogether.
