Japan - Buzz Talk & News

The penultimate day of the festival, and a short one, because I'd seen most of what came earlier on previous days (and in the case of Extreme Job, when it played theatrically in Boston). The evening shows started kind of early at 6:35, which means I...

Look, folks, I got the review for Tokyo Ghoul S up on eFilmCritic (under whose auspices I was awarded a pass to this festival) before its two-night run, and I've been covering a lot of other movies while they're in theaters, and somehow it means that...

The reboot film premieres on January 3 The post Experience Real Horror in New The Grudge Featurette  appeared first on ComingSoon.net.

The Sam Raimi-produced horror reboot debuts next January The post The Grudge Featurette Goes Back to Its Japanese Origins appeared first on ComingSoon.net.

The Fall Focus seemed a bit more like a preview series this year, with most of the films having releases coming up pretty soon - some would begin their rollouts the very next weekend - but the ones I wound up seeing were those whose theatrical releas...

Was Lary Fessenden in town the previous night to host Depraved the previous night? I don't recall, although I was a bit sad that I didn't get to see something in the museum. Not a whole lot of exciting stories from this day - no guests at my screen...

10am for the first show. Ten. Ay. Em! Doesn't seem like much, but some in the audience might have been at the midnight "Fantasia Retro" show the night before, and I'm guessing that the people looking to watch these older movies like Full...

There's a part of me that wants to apologize for pages with this much white on them, but you can't treat your hobby like it's a job. I am kind of in a bad cycle of staying up too late, using too much caffeine to get through the workday and not re...

Takehiro Hira has also joined the film The post Samara Weaving to Play Scarlett in G.I. Joe Spinoff Snake Eyes!  appeared first on ComingSoon.net.

My job pays me money that I spend on movies, but on occasion gets in the way of seeing them, as when they send me to some Dallas-area parking lot with a building in the middle for the better part of a week so that I can sit in on three hours or so of...

At the risk of making too earnest a joke about its title, I wonder how many people are being introduced to Takashi Miike for the first time with First Love. Having spent most of the last decade and a half getting to know Miike's work from his films...

The film will be led by Henry Golding and Andrew Koji The post G.I. Joe Spinoff Snake Eyes Adds Haruka Abe to Cast appeared first on ComingSoon.net.

A long weekend day, built more or less around the short film program, though it started off with a Chinese animated movie, and it was the first time I can recall seeing a Warner Brothers logo in front of a mainland film. I hadn't realized that Warne...

Another day with no guests, and a break taken for dinner because it looked like Jessica Forever would bump right up against Human Lost, and when you're here for the duration, you can choose which time you watch certain movies in DeSeve. Not that the...

The fact that I'm writing about Fantasia's two-week mark four days later and the dang thing still isn't over is kind of crazy. Remember this when the lightweights in Texas start talking about Fantastic Fest being a lot after three days in September.
