UPDATE: Upcoming Movies has revealed the second poster to the already controversial The Human Centipede 2 [Full Sequence]. Let’s just say that this isn’t safe for work.

New poster for War Horse arrives

Entertainment Weekly has debuted the poster for Steven Spielberg’s War Horse, an adaptation of the 1982 children’s novel and stage adaptation of the same name.

DreamWorks Pictures’ War Horse, director Steven Spielberg’s epic adventure, is a tale of loyalty, hope and tenacity set against a sweeping canvas of rural England and Europe during the First World War. War Horse begins with the remarkable friendship between a horse named Joey and a young man called Albert, who tames and trains him. When they are forcefully parted, the film follows the extraordinary journey of the horse as he moves through the war, changing and inspiring the lives of all those he meets–British cavalry, German soldiers, and a French farmer and his granddaughter–before the story reaches its emotional climax in the heart of No Man’s Land. The First World War is experienced through the journey of this horse–an odyssey of joy and sorrow, passionate friendship and high adventure. War Horse is one of the great stories of friendship and war– a successful book, it was turned into a hugely successful international theatrical hit that is arriving on Broadway next year. It now comes to screen in an epic adaptation by one of the great directors in film history.

War Horse is released on 26 December 2011 in Australia from Disney.

New Burning Man poster lights up

Transmission has released a brand-new poster for Burning Man, which departs from the already awesome first poster released last month.

Burning Man is the reckless, sexy, funny, moving and ultimately life-affirming story of Tom, a British chef in a Bondi restaurant, who seems to have decided there are no longer any rules he needs to obey. Whatever Tom is up to, his actions seem to be tolerated by those around him. As Tom descends into darkness, fragments of a different story begin to emerge. All the women in his world are trying in their own, very different ways to help put him back together.

Written and directed by Jonathan Teplitzky (Better Than Sex, Gettin’ Sqaure), it stars Matthew Goode, Bojana Novakovic, Essie Davis, Kerry Fox and Rachel Griffiths.

Burning Man will be released in Australia on 17 November 2011 from Transmission.

New Australian posters for Kevin Smith’s Red State

Curious Distribution has released the new Australian and New Zealand poster for Kevin Smith’s Red State. It’s an adaptation of the US poster we have already seen, with a few celebrity pull-quotes added in, many of which are from or directly reference Quentin Tarantino.

From cult writer/director Kevin Smith (Clerks; Dogma) comes his tenth film, the hotly anticipated Red State, an utterly unique, intense thriller hell-bent on leaving audiences feeling uncomfortable, tense, dazed and never knowing what’s going to happen next. And that’s just the first 10 minutes!

In Middle America, three horny teenagers travel to isolated Cooper’s Dell after responding to an older woman’s online invitation for sex. However, their schoolboy fantasies turn sinister as Christian extremists led by the twisted but charismatic preacher Abin Cooper (Michael Parks) holds them captive in his compound known as the Five Points Church. They hadn’t quite expected this kind of the devil’s business! As the Pastor and his congregation embark on a reign of unholy terror forcing the boys to witness executions before being prepared for their own death, they have to contend with the arrival of Federal Agent Joseph Keenan (John Goodman) and his team who are armed, dangerous and ready to do anything to bring them down. But will they get to the preacher’s disciples before the Apocalypse?

Red State is released 13 October 2011 in Australia from Curious Films.
