The Cellar Review: Who Says Math Can't Be Scary [SXSW]

The Cellar Review: Who Says Math Can’t Be Scary [SXSW] Brendan Muldowney’s “The Cellar” is an adventurously melancholic representation of Irish horror much like Corin Hardy’s “The Hallow” or Lee Cronin’s “The Hole in the Ground.” On paper — and briefly, in practice — there’s nothing exceptional about another spooky manor playing host to a new family’s gravest fears. Muldowney ushers audiences into another musty residence we’ve seen decoratively tweaked a thousand times, until mythology and ambitions extrapolate further and grander like the films mentioned above....

The Real 3D Battle Will Be Fought On Your Face

The Real 3D Battle Will Be Fought On Your Face For more than a year the 3D movie industry has been ramping up, but there was a broad perception that James Cameron’sAvatarcould be the make or break movie for the tech. A massive flop might have set 3D adoption back slightly while success could be a shot in the arm for the theatre-only display technology. With Avatar now drawing record box office receipts, 3D is definitely getting a new jolt of energy, and four companies are in position to duke it out for the spoils of a three-dimensional war....

Tom Hardy "Would Do Anything" For His Venom To Meet Spider-Man

Tom Hardy “Would Do Anything” For His Venom To Meet Spider-Man Among comic fans, this been one of the bigger questions hanging over the head of Sony’s emergingVenomfranchise. How much sense does it make for the symbiote to have an origin story completely divorced from Spider-Man? In terms of the source material, it’s a valid question.
