As the highly-anticipated Titanfall gears up for its March 11th release, Respawn is starting to reveal more details on what they have in store for us with their mech-based shooter. Today, the studio released a ton of new information on the Militia, one of the factions that populates the Frontier (the deepest reaches of explored space). The gist of it is that the group is the “military arm” of the “territorial defense pact” and they are divided into brigades, with each one being responsible for a particular section of Frontier territory.
Check out the full description below for more details on who exactly the Militia are:
The Frontier Militia represents the military arm of the Frontier systems’ territorial defense pact. The Militia is a loosely governed mishmash of homesteaders, bandits, mercenaries, and pirates, all rising up as ‘citizen soldiers’ when the need arises. Many homesteaders have taken on a ‘can’t beat ‘em,...

Slasher films are a dime a dozen. Studios and independents alike spit out flicks with masked killers whose prime objective is to seek out and kill horny teens. Most of the time these flicks are nothing more than flat representations of those that came before them. Choose, a slasher/thriller with a little who-done-it thrown into the mix is a perfect example of a film that almost hit the mark, but unfortunately fails to engage its audience.
The story follows burgeoning journalist student Fiona Wagner (Katheryn Winnick) as she follows leads fed to her by the killer himself. Fiona’s father (Kevin Pollak) happens to be the town Sheriff, who doesn’t want his daughter involved in his case. While Choose has an interesting killer that forces his victims to choose between losing something they love or death, his methods are a reminiscent of a certain serial killer with a penchant for traps,...

The latest indie flick to come out of distribution house Breaking Glass Pictures is The Anniversary at Shallow Creek. This title releases on DVD July 5th and coincidently, this is a day that you will want to stay away from digital rental shops and Netflix queues. Bathed in horror cliches, The Anniversary at Shallow Creek is a B-movie that does not break any molds. Also, the film does not show any depth in story or characters and watching this film is much like being in detention or in a prison cell; you just do not want to be there.

Simple title, simple poster. IFC is releasing Choose from director Marcus Graves, a slasher film that stars Kevin Pollack and Katheryn Winnick. The peace and tranquility of an idyllic, suburban city become suddenly broken. Behind the picket fence and manicured lawn, teenage Sara awakens startled as a rush of cold air gently pushes her bedroom door open. Across the hall her parents’ bedroom door lies ajar. She calls for her parents but gets no response. She enters their bedroom, and as her eyes adjust to the darkness, she sees her parents on the bed hog-tied and gagged. Before she can react, she is grabbed roughly by the hair and slammed against the wall. “Do what I say or you die,” Scar Lip tells her.
He turns over an expertly crafted hourglass filled with blood and coolly instructs her, “I’m going to kill your mother or your father. You have...

Director: Marcus Graves.
Writers: Brandon Camp and Mike Thompson.
Choose is a film from director Marcus Graves, which premiered at the 2010 Frightfest Halloween All-Nighter in Leicester Square (Quiet Earth). Recently, the film was released on DVD in the United Kingdom through G2 Pictures. The film stars some notables such as Kevin Pollak (The Usual Suspects), Bruce Dern (Monster) and Katheryn Winnick (Amusement). Each actor does their best to sell a tense thriller, but the musical work of Nathan Larson is what creates much of the tension. The story brings back the ancient Jewish law of an eye for an eye for eye, or in this case a life for a life, in what is a mostly solid thriller.
Winnick plays Fiona, a woman stalked by a masked killer. Before the final confrontation, several appearingly random people are subjected to torture and dismemberment, with few actual choices. The connections become clearer later on,...

In its tenth year, The Leeds Film Festival’s “Night Of The Dead” disappointingly lacked its normal predictable balance of a teen slasher, the downright nasty, a zombie movie and Japanese gore, but lived up to its eye-rotting highly entertaining reputation with an extended 12-hour programme running from 10pm to 10 am in its usual home, The Hyde Park Picture House. The Red Bulls were out, cushions were in place, pyjamas worn, the shockingly terrible bad film amnesty was back, a surprise showing of an old favourite made an appearance (Dellamorte Dellamore) and ten rather exciting shorts were shown.
