French-Argentine filmmaker Gaspar Noe needs no introduction; he’s one of the most notorious and controversial directors currently active. In fact, he and fellow hellraiser Lars von Trier probably have a running contest going to see who can push the audience’s...

Plus: Gaspar Noe's 'Climax' and A.T. White's 'Starfish.'

Climax takes its time. Like previous Gaspar Noe joints, the film opens pretentiously with a startling and beautiful image and pompous title cards. Fragments of film credits appear as the dancing crew is introduced, stylishly so of course, on an...

The fifth and final day of FrightFest wrapped up a packed weekend of festivities in fine style. Monster Squad fans got their fill from the European Premiere of documentary Wolfman’s Got Nards from child star turned director Andre Gower. The...

Neuchatel International Fantastic Film Festival drew its curtains on another year with its Closing Ceremony and the announcement of its awards. Legendary director David Cronenberg took the role of President of the Jury this year and so was able to...

While they've missed the chance to throw a 'boogaloo' into the title, French sales outfit Wild Bunch are looking to make a big splash in Cannes with the Jonas Akerlund directed / Irvine Welsh script Spring Breakers 2: The Second...

Ah, the 'unfilmable' novel. Go back ten or fifteen years and it seems everyone had some sort of list of great novels that could never be brought to the screen. The limitations at the time were largely technical and in...

In preparation for the February release of their new album, Push the Sky Away, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds had a great idea about who could helm the music video for the stupidly-titled first single, "We No Who U...
