Book of Eli

This post-apocalyptic film could be the role Denzel Washington has been waiting for. Something to put him back on the map. Not that he hasn't had his share of decent flix (American Gangster in 07, Inside Man in 06) in the past few years, but he seems to have lost some of his relevancy of late. He's a good actor that could take a fun concept about a sword wielding hero wandering a war-torn america protecting a book that has the key to saving humanity, for example, and turn it into something special. The trailer has atmosphere to spare and Gary Oldman is certainly a welcome face. Check it out in HD below.

District 9

The new District 9 trailer reveals more action, and more importantly more action involving big robots. This is starting to look like the movie Terminator Salvation should have been.

Carriers

I'm really syked about this movie. This trailer looks amazing! Very much a survivalist post-apocalyptic film. Starring Chris Pine, the new Star Trek's captain Kirk, this film looks gritty and quite frightening.

Surrogates

Showing shades of The Matrix, Total Recall, Terminator (sadly the same director as T3), I, Robot and countless other films, Surrogates story has been done before, but its robots, and its Bruce Willis with a wig on, so I'll give it a shot!

Daybreakers

Ok this movie looks pretty great. Ethan Hawke? Willem Dafoe? Sam Neill? In the future almost everyone on earth is a Vampire and the last humans are harvested for blood...but what happens when the blood runs out? Willem Dafoe and his crossbow carrying crew fight for the human race.

The Antlers

This album is a breathe of fresh air. Intimate and rockin' at the same time. Beautiful vocals/lyrics, layered over lo-fi indie slowcore, with shoegaze atmospherics. This is one of those that kinda sinks into your subconscious and stays there.

Clues

This experimental indie rock band sports former Arcade Fire and Unicorns members. Great start to what is hopefully a bright future for these guys. Take a listen:
