Cirque du Freak: Pretty Vampires Can Go Suck Eggs

Edward Cullen. Bill Compton. Damon and Stefan Salvatore. What's with all these pretty vampires nowadays? In our day, vampires were ugly, horrific monsters, and they still got the ladies, even if they had to abduct them in the dead of night. Seeing John C. Reilly's vampire character in Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant -- with his pallid flesh and disfiguring scars -- made us realize how awesome vampires are when they're monstrous. Check out our gallery of the ugliest vampires and see what really lurks in the dark, besides high cheekbones.

I Want My DVD: Tuesday, October 13, 2009

Are we having fun yet? After a trip to the DVD aisle, we'll be having a lot more fun, because this is the week of fun movie releases. Maybe not good movies, but "good" and "fun" don't always go hand-in-hand. Also, "clean."

I Want My DVD: Tuesday, October 6, 2009

The question isn't "What DVDs are you going to buy?" The question is, "What DVDs aren't you going to buy?" We have a few suggestions.

Trailers Without Pity: Zombieland

Could Woody Harrelson be the best thing about Zombieland? Hard to believe, right? After all, when was Woody Harrelson the best thing about any movie? It's been a while. And to say that he may be the best thing in a movie about a zombie infestation... well that either says great things about his performance or bad things about your zombie movie. Omar and Pablo Gallaga are only going by what they see in the trailer, but that trailer shows them some wacky slapstick, a lot of Zach Snyder-esque slo-mo scenes and a fun, zombie-killing Harrelson, and they're calling it like they see it. Check out their newest video in "Trailers Without Pity" to see why Shaun of the Dead shouldn't be worried, even if zombie fans should.

I Want My DVD: Tuesday, September 15, 2009

Scary monsters. Super creeps. Sienna Miller. All are represented in this week's new movies on DVD, as wolverines, wolfmen, zombies and overrated actresses stalk the moors. And by moors, we mean Best Buy.

Halloween 2: What's Next for Horror Movie Remakes?

With the sequel to Rob Zombie's remake of Halloween in theaters, the director has decided it's the perfect time to announce that he will next remake The Blob, the 1958 movie about a... well, a blob. From space. It's already been remade, in 1988 with Johnny Drama from Entourage, but we'll ignore that one if it means we'll get a grisly new sci-fi story from Mr. Zombie. Of course, Zombie doesn't have a monopoly on remaking old horror movies, and there are already a slew of re-imaginings in the works. We rounded up info on a few of the more high-profile ones, so you know which movies are currently getting hacked to bits in the editing room and which are just plain dead.

Fall Movie Previews Without Pity are Live! Looking to find out what the big movie releases of the fall are? Well, barring any unfortunate incidents like last year's surprise postponement of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, MWoP has put together the essential guide to the final season of 2009, broken down into five convenient categories: Comedies and Dramedies, Serious Dramas, Chills and Thrills, Animation and Sci-Fi, Action and Adventure. There's a bit of cross-pollination in there, but all of the big releases this season are covered in one of those galleries, as well as some little gems we can't wait to see. Sure, there are a lot of Oscar-bait movies and horror flicks, as is the season's wont, but there are also a lot of big spectacles and even a few potential blockbusters, so start planning your calendar appropriately!

Trailers Without Pity: Jennifer's Body

Whew! Finally, the summer is almost over, which means we don't have to look at any more pictures of Transformers 2 star Megan Fox and can move on to... What? She has another movie coming out? In which she stars as an evil high school student who likes having sex wiht boys but is actually a demon? Great. Now we can look forward to another month of photographs of her wearing red-carpet fashions and biting her tongue to make herself look either more or less attractive (we're not exactly sure which she's going for with that). Plus, more Diablo Cody talk-show appearances, to boot. Vloggers Omar and Pablo G. dissect the Jennifer's Body redband trailer -- and the Fox phenomenon herself -- in the latest installment of "Trailers Without Pity." Watch it below, or click here!

Park Chan-Wook has Deep-Down Thirst for Human Misery

To describe Park Chan-wook's newest film, the vampire tale Thirst, to someone who has never seen one of his films is difficult. The movie is horribly violent, and features people doing terrible things to each other in between graphic sex scenes. But, like all of Mr. Park's films, the violence and sex are intercut -- and often interwoven -- with hysterical comedy, so you find yourself laughing at things that you might not normally find amusing.

Twilight: We Re-Cast the Whole Darn Thing for Eclipse

It's official -- Rachelle Lefevre is out as Victoria in the third Twilight movie, Eclipse, and Bryce Dallas Howard (Terminator Salvation, The Village) is in. Supposedly, it's due to a "scheduling conflict," but could it simply be that the producers wanted a better, more famous actress in the role? They're not alone. We think that a lot of actors in the cast could stand to be upgraded, so we went through and re-cast the entire thing in our Re-Casting Wish List. Click the link, and tell us you don't think that would be a better movie.
