A few weeks ago we got our first look at the new cast of the Mystery Science Theater 3000 revival series. Today we have a new photo that focuses on Felicia Day as Kinga Forrester, who is the daughter of the original mad scientist Clayton Forrester, and Patton Oswalt, who plays the Son of TV’s Frank.
Netflix picked up 14 episodes of the series, which was crowdfunded on Kickstarter. They raised $5.7 million during their funding process. The series will premiere on Netflix on Friday, April 14th.
While we wait for the series to return, Netflix is currently streaming 20 episodes of the original series. Those episodes were revealed to include:
• Catalina Caper
• Eegah!
• Future War
• The Giant Gila Monster
• Hercules Against the Moon Men
• Horrors of Spider Island
• I Accuse My Parents
• Jack Frost
• Laserblast
• "Manos" The Hands of Fate
• Merlin’s Shop of Mystical Wonders
• Pod People
• Puma Man
• Santa Claus Conquers the Martians...

Indie filmmaker Tom Graeff, inspired to make his own movie after completing a grip job on Roger Corman's Not of This Earth, convinced monster maker Paul Blaisdell to design the dime store ray gun mirror-reflective gags and the beat-up spray-painted flying saucer shell with the visible crack in it for his magnum opus, which has belatedly attained cult status. Graeff is onscreen in a small role as a reporter. A five minute cutdown of this has been a staple of The Movie Orgy since forever. An in-depth post-mortem on Graeff and his movie can be found here: The Out-Loud Life And Silent Death Of 'Teenagers From Outer Space' Creator Tom Graeff - Happy Nice Time People.

The Ghastly Love of Johnny X is the brainchild of director Paul Bunnell, one he carried about for nine grueling years. The birth of the DVD, released last week, was not an easy one, but no one was surprised. There were warnings that the end result would be deplorably off-kilter. Some, who were in the room when Bunnell's fertilized idea was first sonogrammed -- in "Ghastly Scope," a vivid black and white, by the not untalented cinematographer Francisco Bulgarelli -- had high hopes; others hinted subtly, yet harshly, for a termination of the celluloid fetus.
Inseminated (or inspired) after watching Tom Graeff's 1959 supposedly cult movie Teenagers from Outer Space, Bunnell pulled together a cast that is about 15-20 years too old for almost every part. Imagine The Golden Girls surfing, or David Spade as Tom Sawyer, and you're halfway there.
Which brings up a critical conundrum. Since Ghastly is...

I Was a Teenage Thanksgiving Turkey! week begins at Trailers from Hell with director and Tfh creator Joe Dante introducing cult classic "Teenagers from Outer Space" from 50s indie filmmaker Tom Graeff, who had just completed grip work on a Roger Corman picture before striking out on his own.

Let’s look back, shall we?
Joe emcees.
So we did a thing at The Cinefamily. Because we have a new DVD out. Because Josh poked us with sticks and said we had to. Because we like movie theaters (especially The Cinefamily). Because we wanted to see what would happen if we got a bunch of gurus under one roof, in front of one screen.
Because we like movies.
No one had any clue how it might play out or even if anyone would show up. But, in point of fact, it turned out great and people did show up because the truth is this:
Any night that starts with Joe Dante screening never-before-seen test footage from an almost-happened 1981 version of The Creature from the Black Lagoon, reaches its midpoint with a blooper reel of John Landis trying and failing to record commentary, and ends with Larry Cohen doing impromptu,...

It's like we can touch you! The landmark 10th round necessitates something special, wouldn't you agree? We thought so. That's why we're proud to announce that this week will be in eye popping (gouging?) 3D! We'll provide glasses, you guys bring your sense of wonder and awe.
The Mask (1961, Canada) [Aka: Face of Fire Aka: Eyes of Hell]
An archaeologist is tormented after finding a mask that produces nightmarish visions and leaves him wondering if he's a murderer. Before his suicide, he mails the cursed mask to his psychiatrist. Is he doomed to suffer the same fate? Is the mask driving him to kill?
Billed as the only 3D film to come out of Canada (and allegedly their first horror film), The Mask is one wild ride with a pretty decent story to boot. A booming voice commands that viewers "Put The Mask On Now!" (as a cue to put on your 3D glasses!) in order to fully...

I Am Number Four
Directed by: D.J Caruso
Cast: Alex Pettyfer, Dianna Agron, Timothy Olyphant, Callan McAuliffe, Teresa Palmer
Running Time: 1 hr 48 mins
Rating: PG-13
Release Date: February 18, 2011
Plot: John (Pettyfer) is a teenager from another planet with special powers bestowed upon him by his alien roots. With the help of his guardian Henri, he tries to elude those trying to kill him and eight others, which would subsequently destroy his race.
Who’S It For?: Teenage boys and girls who can’t think up any better way to waste their money. Fans of fantasy/horror shows on non-cable channels have a more immediate chance at enjoying this one, especially considering their acclimation with (and subsequent acceptance of) hokey supernatural villains stomping around high school settings.
Expectations: The producing credit for Transformers director Michael Bay was enough to get me on board with checking out I Am Number Four.

- The Scorecard Review
The art that stays with us, that moves us, that captivates, beguiles and enthralls us, is the kind that goes to extremes.
No comedy is as funny as when the action therein is taken to extremes of the farcical and absurd. Film noir depicts human beings in their most extreme states of moral decay, asking questions of us as to whether we can be decent people in an indecent world. Superheroes inspire by operating on the extreme side of nobility. Horror films thrive by confronting the extremes of evil, pain and death and forcing us to confront terrors deep and even instinctual within our conscious as well as our subconscious.
The cinematic phenomenons of late – whether one would evaluate these pictures as “good” or “bad” – are no exception. The extravagance of Avatar’s fantasy is matched by the outrageousness of the financial and technical resources required to create it. The...
