There is surely a market for an Underworld B-movie knock off, even a badly made one…. Is what I thought before I saw Among the Shadows. The film mashes the Underworld vampires and werewolves conflict idea with some hardboiled detective nonsense – the fit and healthy young lady is actually a grizzled old, alchy gumshoe.. with narration, whiskey, the whole thing.
We are in the near future, and in the “United States of Europe” thanks to Brexit, apparently. Kicking off, with quite the prankster uncle Harry calling his young, attractive niece to tell her he had been shot… her reaction implies she gets a lot of calls like this from him (possibly at 3am with uncle Harry breathing heavily and crying loudly).

Lindsay Lohan is back and this time she’s battling werewolves! The first trailer has been released for her latest film project, Among the Shadows. As you might expect, the movie is campy, cheap, and terrible looking. But, I know you’re all curious to see what a Lindsay Lohan werewolf movie looks like, so I thought I’d share it!
Kristy Wolfe (Charlotte Beckett) is a Brussels private eye descended from werewolves who must go to work when her uncle Harry Goldtsone is murdered in a politically-motivated attack. Patricia Sherman (Lindsay Lohan), the wife of European Federation President Richard Sherman, hires Wolfe to investigate Goldstone’s killing, as he was her husband’s campaign manager. Wolfe finds bodies falling all over city and must use her innate instincts to unravel the case and stay alive long enough unmask the conspiracy.”
It’s interesting to see where Lohan’s career has gone.

Actor Brad Dourif is most commonly known for his roles in genre fare such as Exorcist 3, Grim Prairie Tales, and the Child’s Play series. In more recent years Dourif has expanded his repertoire on television with roles in Deadwood and Law & Order, but that hasn’t stopped him returning to the more creepy roles with which he made his name, such as in his latest movie Death and Cremation.
The debut of director Justin Steele, Death and Cremation is from a script by Alecc Bracero and Justin Steele, and stars Dourif along with Jeremy Sumpter (Friday Night Lights), Scott Elrod, Debbon Ayer (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), Daniel Baldwin (Homicide: Life on the Street), and Staci Keenan (My Two Dads, Step by Step) in a story that takes place:
In Crest Point, [where] people go about their day-to-day lives with no sense of urgency and standard stereotypes abound. There...

As well, a synopsis for the film, movie poster, and trailer are now available here. Have a look at all the bloody details as an "outcast" turns the tables on others in Death and Cremation (Death).

Seeing a rather distraught Brad Dourif coming up the steps towards you with a baseball bat resting comfortably on his shoulder isn’t the most soothing of images. It does, though, make a damn fine beginning to a trailer for a film called Death And Cremation.
In the film, directed by first time feature film director Justin Steele, Dourif plays middle-aged man who performs a service to his community. He runs the local crematorium, but, more than that, he rids the neighborhood of people he deems unworthy of the life they’ve been given. Imagine the strange relationship that sparks when a 17-year-old outcast comes to the crematorium as his helper.
The film also stars Jeremy Sumpter of “Friday Night Lights” fame, Daniel Baldwin, and Scott Elrod. Ross Otterman serves as producer with Ken Hendrick, Raphael Kryszek, Daniel Aldema, and Andy Jensen Sved acting as executive producers. Tiago Mesquita is...
