Shelley Smith, the ’70s super model turned actor known for her work on “The Associates” and “For Love and Honor,” died Tuesday after going into cardiac arrest days earlier. She was 70.

Smith died at Hollywood Presbyterian Hospital, her husband Michael Maguire said in a video posted to Facebook on Wednesday.

“She loved helping people. Most of all, she helped me. She made me a much better person than I ever would have been. We had a great marriage,” Maguire said in the video. “I don’t know how to go on without her. But I know that we had an incredible relationship and it was as pure as anything could be.”

Smith kicked off her modeling career in the early 1970s, landing the cover of Harper’s Bazaar and getting features in Vogue, Mademoiselle and Glamour magazines. In 1979, she stepping into the television world and made her star debut on “The Associates” alongside Martin Short,...

Clint Eastwood is We Are Movie Geeks favorite stars and directors. After last year’s superb Richard Jewell, it’s clear the 89-year old actor and two-time Oscar winning director hasn’t let his age slow him down a bit.

Clint Eastwood has appeared in 68 films in his six (!) decades as an actor, and here, according to We Are Movie Geeks, are his ten best:

Check back here at Wamg soon for a list of Clint’s ten best films as a director.

Honorable Mention: Honkytonk Man

By the 1980s, Clint Eastwood was one of Hollywood’s most bankable stars. With his own production company, directorial skills, and economic clout, Eastwood was able to make smaller, more personal films. A perfect example is the underrated Honkytonk Man, which also happens to be one of Eastwood’s finest performances.

Easter weekend usually signals an onslaught of religious movies, especially coming from the other side of the pond. While it’s easy to dismiss the majority of these films as too simplistic in their approach to faith, some in the past, see The Shack, have offered a little more gravitas than others. The same sadly can’t be said about Let There Be Light, a film so ingrained in blind-faith and conservatism that it could turn any God-fearing christian into a confirmed atheist.

Directed by and starring TV’s very own Hercules Kevin Sorbo, the film is co-produced by conservative Fox News anchor Sean Hannity and is written by Sorbo’s wife Sam Sorbo alongside veteran writer Dan Gordon, the man behind Hollywood classics such as Wyatt Earp and The Hurricane.

Outspoken and heavy drinking atheist writer Dr. Sol Harkens (Sorbo) is a firm believer in science and has made...

"Can you explain your place in the universe?" Picturehouse has debuted the first official trailer for a very peculiar, mysterious drama from the UK titled Out of Blue, from director Carol Morley. The film's story focuses on a detective who is investigating the shooting of an astrophysicist and black hole expert, but seem to lose her grip on reality and get lost in the existential concepts of time and relevance. Or something like that. Patricia Clarkson stars in this, with Jacki Weaver, James Caan, Toby Jones, Aaron Tveit, Mamie Gummer, Alyshia Ochse, Jonathan Majors, and Gary Grubbs. There are some interesting scenes in this trailer - moments where people disappear, very wacky lines of dialogue, but I am more than intrigued and very curious to find out what's really going on and what else this film covers. What big ideas it discusses, and how they work all that into the narrative.

Eight years ago, Father Colin Hampstead oversaw an aborted exorcism that resulted in the gruesome death of seventeen-year-old Jewel Grant, in rural Louisiana. The deceased girl’s older sister, Kayleigh, grew immediately attached to Hampstead and sought him out, at first for grief counseling and then, for much more. Eight years later, Hampstead has left the priesthood and become a celebrated fiction writer, specializing in stories about the occult, and he and Kayleigh, now his wife, have a beautiful daughter and run a well-known bed and breakfast in Savannah, Ga. When the couple agrees to host a wedding for one of Colin’s college friends, what begins as a Big Chill-type reunion turns into something much more macabre, as the seemingly omnipresent ghost of her dead sister Jewel...

Dark Sky Films has brought us films as diverse and bold as The House Of The Devil, The Innkeepers, and Stake Land. Joining that esteemed company is the recently released (and now available on DVD, Blu-ray, and VOD) Convergence, in which a cop (Clayne Crawford, Swimfan, Jericho) finds himself trapped in limbo and must find redemption before he can escape. With support from veteran actors Ethan Embry (Vacancy, Once Upon A Time) and Mykelti Williamson (The Final Destination, Forrest Gump), the nightmarish action-horror film deals with weighty themes of religious fanaticism and atonement. We spoke with writer-director Drew Hall about his inspiration, beliefs, and symbolism.

'JFK' movie with Kevin Costner as Jim Garrison 'JFK' assassination movie: Gripping political drama gives added meaning to 'Rewriting History' If it's an Oliver Stone film, it must be bombastic, sentimental, clunky, and controversial. With the exception of "clunky," JFK is all of the above. It is also riveting, earnest, dishonest, moving, irritating, paranoid, and, more frequently than one might expect, outright brilliant. In sum, Oliver Stone's 1991 political thriller about a determined district attorney's investigation of the assassination of U.S. president John F. Kennedy is a slick piece of propaganda that mostly works both dramatically and cinematically. If only some of the facts hadn't gotten trampled on the way to film illustriousness. With the exception of John Williams' overemphatic score – Oliver Stone films need anything but overemphasis – JFK's technical and artistic details are put in place to extraordinary effect.

No one is certain when just yet, but we'll let you know when we get something concrete. In the interim cross February 28th off of your movie-going calendar.

Insiders say the release is being postponed to give Bay, who has been busy directing the mega-tentpole Transfomers: Age of Extinction, which opens June 24th, the opportunity to focus on the smaller movie.

Paramount is now mulling a new release date during the summer or fall.

Stars: Luke Evans, Adelaide Clemens, Lee Tergesen, Derek Magyar, Beau Knapp, America Olivo, Lindsey Shaw, Brodus Clay, Gary Grubbs | Written by David Cohen | Directed by Ryuhei Kitamura

Ryuhei Kitamura’s second American film (his first was the Vinnie Jones starrer The Midnight Meat Train), No One Lives harks back to his early work – the Super 8 short Down to Hell and his most famous flick Versus – putting strangers together in a pitched battle against a common enemy.

The film starts out very much along the typical backwoods/hillbilly slant, as a gang of robbers screw up their latest mansion heist and, to make up for their loses, kidnap a couple in a car instead. It looks as though we’re seemingly headed down the torture route, with our villains set to get the information they need from the couple by any means necessary. However Kitamura flips the script and what the robbers,...

Well, at the very least, "No One Lives" actually delivers on its title, however, it also tells you exactly what will happen in an already rote, routine and predictable movie. It's an R-rated horror flick that -- with a few obvious, quick cuts -- could easily be PG-13, perhaps indicating no one really knew what they wanted from the start. It's a movie that takes place mostly over the course of one night, utilizing a small handful of locations, but the low budget would suggest this was a choice of financing, rather than the requirements of the script. It's a movie that casts "Hey, it's that guy!" character actor Gary Grubbs in a part even too small and innocuous for him. Really, "No One Lives" isn't so much awful, but an example of a series of bad decisions that wind up resulting in a bad movie. Sometimes it's as simple as that.

A project that feels like it has been around for absolutely ages is Ryuhei Kitamura's ('The Midnight Meat Train') slasher flick 'No One Lives'. Thankfully, however, if you live in the Us you'll be able to finally catch the WWE Studios and Pathe UK co-production in select theatres from 10 May. Anchor Bay will be dropping the thriller into the following cities next month; La, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Dallas, Philadelphia, Miami, Boston, Detroit, Houston and Baltimore. 'No One Lives' stars Luke Evans ('The Raven'), Adelaide Clemens ('Silent Hill: Revelation'), Derek Magyar, America Olivo ('Friday the 13th'), Beau Knapp, Lee Tergesen, Lindsey Shaw, Jake Austin Walker, George Murdoch, Laura Ramsey, Gary Grubbs and Dalton Gray. Head below to check out the new international trailer....

It was a year and a half ago we posted the first piece of teaser art from Ryuhei Kitamura's ('The Midnight Meat Train') new killer thriller 'No One Lives' and since then we're still waiting with bated breathe at the final product. It was slated for a January 2013 release and even scored an 18 rating by the BBFC here in the UK but unless this completely bypassed us since we've not seen or heard anything. Anyway, for now we do know its hitting Russian theatres on 18th April at least according to this new international poster revealed by the Imp Awards. Luke Evans ('The Raven'), Adelaide Clemens ('Silent Hill: Revelation'), Derek Magyar, America Olivo ('Friday the 13th'), Beau Knapp, Lee Tergesen, Lindsey Shaw, Jake Austin Walker, George Murdoch, Laura Ramsey, Gary Grubbs, and Dalton Gray all star in the new thriller. Check out the poster below.

Speaking of Arnold Schwarzenegger (he’s officially returning as Conan in “The Legend of Conan”, in case you missed the story before this one), he’s also the star of the new actioner “Ten” (or “Breacher”, or whatever they end up calling this thing), and he recently tweeted a picture of himself on the film’s set. Check it out below, check it outers. “Ten” finds Schwarzenegger playing the head of an elite DEA task force that find themselves being taken down one by one after they rob a drug cartel safe house. The film also co-stars Malin Akerman, Sam Worthington, Joe Manganiello, Josh Holloway, Harold Perrineau, Olivia Williams, Terrence Howard, Mireille Enos, Gary Grubbs, and Max Martini.

When Japanese director Ryuhei Kitamura bought us the 2008 adapted horror 'The Midnight Meat Train' we were holding our breathe for the helmer to bring us another good horror flick.

Entertainment Weekly have debuted the first official image of Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis in director Jay Roach‘s political comedy The Campaign, which follows rival politicians in a small congressional district in South Carolina.

When J. Edgar was released last Fall, We Are Movie Geeks published our Top Ten Tuesday article on Clint Eastwood’s best films as director. With word that Eastwood has come out of acting retirement, it’s time for another Top Ten list, this time of movies that Clint has starred in. Trouble With The Curve is currently filming and stars Clint as an ailing baseball scout in his twilight years who takes his daughter (played by Amy Adams) on the road for one last recruiting trip. This will be Clint’s first acting role since Gran Torino in 2008.

Check out these images of Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis on the set of Jay Roach‘s upcoming political comedy Dog Fight. Accidental Sexiness got their hands on these images from movie, which is formerly titled Southern Rivals, and follos two rival politicians in a small congressional district in South Carolina.

Along with Ferrell and Galifianakis, Dog Fight also stars Jason Sudeikis, John Lithgow, Dylan McDermott, Brian Cox, Josh Lawson, Gary Grubbs, P.J Byrne, and Dan Aykroyd. Dog Fight is scheduled for a Us release August 10th.

It's official: ghost-busting Blues Brother Dan Aykroyd is going back to his roots—because this funnyman has just become the third "Saturday Night Live" alum to join the cast of the political comedy "Dog Fight." (A comedy about politics? Surely we jest.)

'Tis true, good citizens. Aykroyd has teamed up with former 30 Rock employees Will Ferrell and Jason Sudeikis in this story of two rival South Carolina politicians with presidential aspirations who tangle with each other. Something tells us things get dirty.

Zach Galifianakis (not an "SNL" alum) also stars, and the rounded out cast list includes John Lithgow, Dylan McDermott, Brian Cox, Josh Lawson, Gary Grubbs and P.J. Byrne, Movie Hole reports.

Aykroyd has some legit experience channeling a Southerner, as he recently portrayed President Jimmy Carter in Funny or Die’s ‘Presidential Reunion’ Sketch, which was pretty awesome. Oh, and he owns the House of Blues restaurant chain.

Here's something that will keep Dan Aykroyd from beating his giant Ghostbusters 3 drum for a minute: the comic actor and enthusiastic vodka pitchman has a small role in the political comedy Dog Fight, alongside Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis. The film, shooting now under the direction of Jay Roach (Austin Powers, Meet the Parents) is a political satire that features Ferrell and Galifianakis as rival South Carolina politicians with an eye on the White House. The movie is going to be timed pretty well, hitting as it will just as the 2012 Presidential campaign is in its final stages. That'll be in the zone where politics is on everyone's mind, but the wild early stages of the Republican primaries will be long done. The question will be: can Dog Fight hope to be as unexpectedly weird and comic as the runup to those primaries has been? It seems like Aykroyd...

Dan Aykroyd is going to brush up on his Southern accent. Moviehole has reported the veteran comedian will be part of the cast in the political comedy “Dog Fight.” The film stars Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis as two South Carolina politicians with presidential aspirations. The site did not state on what role Aykroyd will play. Other cast members in the film will also include Jason Sudeikis, John Lithgow, Dylan McDermott, Brian Cox, Josh Lawson, Gary Grubbs and P.J. Byrne. The last U.S. movie that Aykroyd appeared in was with 2007’s “I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry.” He recently lent his voice for last year’s “Yogi Bear” and the upcoming animated film “Dorothy of Oz.” The film is currently shooting in New Orleans for a theater release next August.Source: Moviehole...
