The first 5 minutes of Saw 4 are online. It’s the footage from Comic Con.
The text along with it makes it clear that Jigsaw and Amanda are dead, which really makes you wonder how this franchise is going to continue. They’ve stated they want to continue releasing a Saw film every Holloween, I don’t know how long they’ll be able to do that now. The first Saw movie was great, but they’ve turned from psychological to gore, which does nothing for me.

For those that enjoyed Eli Roth’s Hostel, a teaser is up for the sequel (here). I found Hostel to be quite a B-movie, very standard and predictable plot, nothing fresh, nothing new. Hostel 2 will continue the over-used theme, the “twist” being a gender role-reversal, something about the women getting it this time. Can Roth churn out something we haven’t seen before?
We’ll see.

Hostel 2 Teaser Trailer
I watched The Blair Witch Project again a couple of days ago. It’s one of those films that isn’t as appealing when you watch it for the third, fourth, or fith time. The first time was frightening and new, but unlike other movies it looses that quickly. But, a great film nonetheless.
So, what’s Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sanchez (the directors) up to today? They’ve both got films coming out soon.
Myrick’s got Solstice (official site here) in post-production. Solstice is a horror flick with the logline “A young girl uncovers a disturbing secret about her twin sister, who committed suicide just a few months before.” The only release date so far is June 21, 2007 in the Netherlands (yes, it’s in English). Solstice is actually a remake of Midsommer, a Danish flick (no surprise). It stars Elisabeth Harnois.
Sanchez recently completed Altered (site here). Altered is a thriller about “Fifteen years ago, a group of men’s lives were forever changed by a strange occurrence. Now, the same group of men will spend a night together … in terror.” Basically, five men are abducted by aliens and one of them killed. They manage to later capture one of these aliens, and the thriller begins. No release date yet, but there have been some screenings already (to mixed reviews) so it should be soon.
So there you go…in case you were wondering.
