Shaun Of The Dead screens tonight at Tower Theater

As Halloween descends onto Fresno, there a plethora of stuff to do. But if your anti-social like many of us internet nerds are, you might forgo heading out to cut a rug at your local watering hole, then here’s the perfect solution for you! Fresno Filmworks will be holding a midnight screening of the classic Shaun Of The Dead at the Tower Theater at midnight. So grab some coffee to stay awake and maybe we’ll see you out there…..after we watch Zack & Miri Make A Porno of course!

Dem Trailers: Valkyrie

At the Fresno Filmmakers Forum, one of the speakers mentioned how he thought that this film was not going to be a success while talking about how Tom Cruise is no longer a A-1 name in Hollywood that guarantees box office. Sure, the early buzz has been mostly negative, the reshoots, constant delays and Tom Cruise being nuttier than a Payday really don’t help but I’m honestly looking forward to this little film. And this trailer (and I enjoy it’s new graphic approach in here and in the new poster) only adds to the hype for me. Check it out over here at Yahoo! and let us know if you think this will be a bomb or Cruise’s comeback film.

Dem Trailers: Angels & Demons

Illuminati? I’m there! Never really got into the first film (actually, I got about an hour in, turned it off and never got back to it) but I wouldn’t mind sitting down again and checking it out before Angels & Demons comes out. Will I do it, though? Probably not. Plus this movie is gonna make enough money and doesn’t need my non-fan cash, right? Check out the teaser trailer and let us know what you think.

This week’s Flashback Feature: Spaceballs

I hate the fact that films like Spaceballs are nowadays being replaced by stupid fucken movie like Disaster Movie, Meet The Spartans and crap like those. Maybe it was my age when I first saw Airplane & Naked Gun but those films were great and nothing like the horrible spoof films we get nowadays. So if your even remotely close to longing for those films of yesteryear, you need to head on over to Edwards tonight and catch this classic on the big screen. You know the rules: Tickets are $5 and the film starts at 10pm. May The Schwartz Be With You!

Dem Trailers: Slumdog Millionaire

Director Danny Boyle seems to have crafted a love story around the game show Who Want’s To Be A Millionaire and I’m sure that fact alone will keep people away but from all the buzz, everyone is ranting and raving about how awesome this film is. And fortunately, we’re going to be getting the film here in Fresno, according to Slash Film. What sucks is that it’s not coming here until December 26th. Check out the trailer over at Yahoo! here and let us know what you think.

Random Goodness: Swinging Baby

Not real, a bit to long but entertaining nonetheless. I’m sure people will be complaining about this in no time.
