Exclusive: Anti-war film Der Tiger is the first Amazon MGM Studios Germany feature to land a local theatrical release.

We can reveal the original Amazon film will release in select German CineStar cinemas on September 18 before becoming available on Prime Video later in the year.

The feature, set in the Eastern Front of World War II in 1943, follows a five-man crew of a German Tiger tank that’s sent on a secret mission far behind the contested front line. As they go deeper into enemy territories, they have to face their own fears and demons, and stimulated by Wehrmacht methamphetamine, their mission increasingly becomes a journey into the heart of darkness.

David Schütter, Laurence Rupp, Leonard Kunz, Sebastian Urzendowsky and Yoran Leicher star, with Tilman Strauß and André M. Hennicke among the supporting roles.

Pantaleon Films made the German pic in collaboration with Amazon MGM Studios Germany. Frank Kusche and Dan Maag are the producers.

Production has got underway in Germany and Poland on “Oderbruch,” a major thriller series produced by Paramount Global’s CBS Studios, Syrreal Entertainment and Ard Degeto, part of German public broadcast group Ard.

The previously announced drama stars Karoline Schuch (“Dark Woods”), Felix Kramer (“Dogs of Berlin”) and Lucas Gregorowicz and is a tale which begins with the discovery of multiple murder victims in a remote area near the German-Polish border.

The eight-part series is directed by Adolfo J. Kolmerer and Christian Alvart. Series creator and head writer Arend Remmers developed the series concept with Kolmerer.

Siegfried Kamml, Christian Alvart and Timm Oberwelland from Syrreal serve as producers. The executives overseeing the project are: Christoph Pellander, editor-in-chief of Ard Degeto; Sebastian Lückel, head of acquisitions and co-productions at Ard Degeto; Patrick Noel Simon, commissioning editor at Ard Degeto; and Meghan Lyvers, senior VP of international co-productions and development at CBS Studios.

"You tried to smile. But you had tears in your eyes." The Cinema Guild in NYC has revealed a new official US trailer for the intriguing Swiss film titled The Girl and The Spider, which first premiered at the 2021 Berlin Film Festival last year. The film is the latest feature from Swiss filmmaking brothers Ramon & Silvan Zürcher, "the second work in the Zücher brothers' trilogy about human togetherness which began with the 2013 drama The Strange Little Cat." Lisa moves out, and Mara is left behind. As boxes are being moved and cupboards built, abysses begin to open up, an emotional rollercoaster is set in motion. It's described as "a tragicomic catastrophe film. A poetic ballad about change and transience." Starring Henriette Confurius, Liliane Amuat, Ursina Lardi, André Hennicke, and Sabine Timoteo. "Day turns into night and one final party in the apartment. When the last box is moved, the fragments of their lives remain.

"I'd always be scared of losing her." Cercamon has debuted an early promo sales trailer for an indie Swiss film titled The Girl and The Spider, which is premiering at this year's Berlin Film Festival coming up next month. The film is the latest feature from Swiss filmmaking brothers Ramon & Silvan Zürcher, "the second work in the Zücher brothers' trilogy about human togetherness which began with the 2013 drama The Strange Little Cat." Lisa moves out, Mara is left behind. As boxes are being moved and cupboards built, abysses begin to open up, an emotional rollercoaster is set in motion. Described as "a tragicomic catastrophe film. A poetic ballad about change and transience." The film stars Henriette Confurius, Liliane Amuat, Ursina Lardi, André Hennicke, and Sabine Timoteo. This looks like some tricky, complex European cinema that definitely won't be for everyone. Watch out - this trailer is Nsfw with a bit of nudity included.

"At first, the man was believed to be a hiker. Later, his stone age origins were revealed..." Film Movement has debuted a new official Us trailer for Iceman, a stone age survival thriller set in the snowy Ötztal Alps (located on Austria / Italy border). This premiered at the Locarno Film Festival in 2017, and we originally posted a trailer for it back then. This could be described as an early Neolithic man version of The Revenant, about one man who angrily seeks revenge but must first survive the brutal Ötztal Alps. Jürgen Vogel stars as Kelab, with the full cast including Susanne Wuest, André Hennicke, Violetta Schurawlow, Sabin Tambrea, Martin Schneider, and an appearance by Franco Nero. The film uses an early version of the Rhaetic language. This actually looks pretty damn good, with some epic footage and plenty of gnarly beards.

Young Military rookie S.U.M.1 (Rheon) is sent to the surface to save […]...

It’s been decades since a new world order changed Earth forever, an alien invasion by creatures known as the Nonesuch forcing humanity underground. The old guard who survived remembers the war that drove them subterranean, memories of life on the surface and the beasts that present-day generations hope to never encounter. If any of them do want to risk their lives for a glimpse of the sun they’ve only heard about through stories, though, they can enlist in the military and become a soldier tasked with a one hundred day mission meant to find stragglers and point them towards sanctuary: Exilium. Battles still rage, but humanity has all but resigned itself to its defeat. Now it’s a matter of staying alive to save those who were left behind.

This is the background to Christian Pasquariello’s debut feature S.U.M.1 — a high concept, low budget one-man science fiction show.

"They found a man, but not his story..." A trailer has debuted for a film titled Iceman, which is premiering at the Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland kicking off this week.

Jürgen Vogel stars as Kelab, with the full cast including Susanne Wuest, André Hennicke, Violetta Schurawlow, Sabin Tambrea, Martin Schneider, and an appearance by Franco Nero. The film uses an early version of the Rhaetic language. This actually looks damn good, with some impressive hair + beards and an intense story set entirely in the wilderness. I'm intrigued enough to watch. Here's the first official trailer (+ German poster) for Felix Randau's Iceman, direct from YouTube: 5000 years ago: A man lives with his woman and their children in the Ötztals Alps.

The 2017 Berlin Film Festival begins this week and will feature a host of world premieres, but there are still films from last year’s festival that have yet to be distributed or released in the United States. One of them is Piotr J. Lewandowski’s film “Jonathan,” about a young man who discovers his father’s long-repressed secret.

The film follows farmhand Jonathan (Jannis Niewöhner) who devotes himself to looking after his terminally ill father Burghardt (André Hennicke), but when Burghardt’s long-lost friend Ron (Thomas Sarbacher) comes to town, Jonathan discovers the two were once deeply in love. Jonathan grapples with his father’s sexuality, along with his new relationship with young caretaker Anka (Julia Koschitz), and struggles to accept him before his death. Watch an exclusive clip from the film below.

Production lot has previously housed international productions including Wes Anderson’s The Grand Budapest Hotel.

Studio Babelsberg is returning to the development of in-house German-language production and co-productions with local producers.

To this end, the studios on the outskirts of Berlin have set up a joint production outfit, Traumfabrik Babelsberg GmbH (literally translated as Dream Factory Babelsberg) with producer Tom Zickler, who left Barefoot Films (which he co-founded with actor-filmmaker Til Schweiger) last summer after 12 years.

The studio’s new production arm, which will be managed by Zickler with Studio Babelsberg’s vice president and COO Christoph Fisser, begins operations on February 1, 2017.

For Zickler, this new venture will be a form of homecoming. He worked on the studio lot in the mid-1980s when it was the East German state-run Defa Studios.

In addition, the Babelsberg studio lot was also the address for his first production company before he joined forces with Schweiger and actor André Hennicke in 1996 to...

After premiering at Cannes, Corpo celeste director Alice Rohrwacher‘s Le Meraviglie (The Wonders) will finally touch down in the United States the end of the month Also starring Monica Bellucci and Alba Rohrwacher, we noted the film has been “praised for its alternation of intimacy and universality, tightness and openness, and the mixing of verisimilitude with wonder.”

Following the story of fourteen-year-old Gelsomina who lives in the Umbrian countryside with her sweetly dysfunctional family, we’re pleased to exclusively debut a clip, courtesy of Oscilloscope. The preview features one of the most memorable sequences from the film in which Gelsomina first shows off her bit of performance art with the bee.

Check it out below, along with the poster, for the film starring Monica Bellucci, Alba Rohrwacher, André Hennicke, Margarete Tiesel, Sabine Timoteo, and Sam Louwyck. One can also see the U.S. trailer here.

Synopsis:

Winner of the...

'Downfall' movie: Bruno Ganz as Adolf Hitler 'Downfall' movie: Overlong and overwrought World War II drama lifted by several memorable performances Oliver Hirschbiegel's German box office hit Downfall / Der Untergang is a generally engrossing psychological-historical drama whose emotional charge is diluted by excessive length, an overabundance of characters, and a tendency to emphasize the more obvious aspects of the narrative. Several key performances – including Bruno Ganz's now iconic Adolf Hitler – help to lift Downfall above the level of myriad other World War II movies. Nazi Germany literally goes under In Downfall, which by the end of 2004 had been seen by more than 4.5 million German moviegoers, Nazi Germany is about to lose the war. In his underground bunker, Adolf Hitler (Bruno Ganz) grows increasingly out of touch with reality as he sees his dream of Deutschland über alles go kaput. Some of those under his command are equally incapable of thinking coherently.

With only a few weeks to go until the Berlin Film Festival unspools, much of the competition lineup still remains a mystery. However, today has added some clarity with several titles unveiled. Among them, Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi’s latest effort. The director, who is under house arrest and a 20-year filmmaking ban, nevertheless manages to get a movie out every couple of years. His last, Closed Curtain, stirred up controversy in Iran when it won the screenwriting prize in Berlin in 2013. This latest film, Taxi, stars the director, although other details were not immediately available.

Also in the mix is the world premiere, out of competition, of Bill Condon’s Mr. Holmes, starring Ian McKellen, Laura Linney, Milo Parker, Hiroyuki Sanada and Hattie Morahan. McKellen plays the titular detective as he nears the end of his days and revisits an unsolved case which forced him into retirement.

Werner Herzog...

Queen of the Desert, starring Nicole Kidman and Robert Pattinson, added to Berlinale competition line-up; Mr. Holmes, starring Ian McKellen as an aged Sherlock, to play out of competition.

Horror legend Tom Savini directs and co-stars in Wet Dreams for this horror anthology, in theaters at Midnight, January 27th

Down a seedy city street, a young woman is obsessed with what appears to be a long abandoned theatre. One night, she sees the front door slightly ajar and impulsively decides to sneak inside. But there in the vast, eerie auditorium, a show unlike any other unfolds before her eyes. Its host is an odd marionette-like man who will introduce her to six tales of the bizarre: A couple traveling in a remote part of the French Pyrenees crosses paths with a lustful witch; A paranoid lover faces the wrath of a partner who has been pushed to her limit; The Freudian dreams of an unfaithful husband blur the lines between fantasy and reality; The horrors of the real world are interpreted through the mind of a child; A woman...

From Aleksandr Andriyevsky's Gibel Sensatsii (Lost Sensation, 1935)

The Deutsche Kinemathek - Museum für Film und Fernsehen, which has organized the Berlinale's Retrospective program since 1977, and New York's Museum of Modern Art have worked together on this or that series in the past, but today the festival has announced that the cooperation is going long-term. Starting with this year's Retrospective program, The Red Dream Factory. Mezhrabpom-Film and Prometheus 1921-1936, the Berlinale, Kinemathek and MoMA will be working closely to select and curate future Retrospectives. The Red Dream Factory, screening in Berlin from February 9 through 19, will be presented at MoMA from April 11 through 30, and here's the gist from the Berlinale's announcement in October:

Director David Cronenberg takes us behind-the-scenes of A Dangerous Method, Cosmopolis, and more.

Director David Cronenberg has found success in every genre he's worked in. The filmmaker became well known for his horror fare in the 1970s and 1980s (The Brood, Scanners, Videodrome, The Fly) and tackled a variety of different dramas in the 1990s (Naked Lunch, M. Butterfly, Crash, eXistenZ). After decades as a cult favorite, the filmmaker broke into the mainstream with hits A History of Violence and Eastern Promises. The director's latest is the wonderful period drama A Dangerous Method, which explores the unique relationships between pioneering psychologists Sigmund Freud (Viggo Mortensen), Carl Jung (Michael Fassbender), and Sabina Spierlein (Keira Knightley). I recently had the chance to sit down with David Cronenberg to discuss A Dangerous Method, which arrives in New York and Los Angeles theaters November 23. Here's what he had to say below.

First off, I really enjoyed this film,...

It's amazing to me that every time we see a film from Germany, there's either gonna be Nazis involved somehow or some gratuitous usage of techno music. You read the headline ... what do you think this latest import is rife with?

Below you'll find your first look at 205: Room of Fear, or 205 Zimmer der Angst as its known in its homeland, from director Rainer Matsutani. The flick stars Jennifer Ulrich, Julia Dietze, Inez Björg David, Marleen Loose, Hans Uwe Bauer, and André Hennicke.

The trailer of the film A Dangerous Method is now online. The release date for this film from Canadian director David Cronenberg (Eastern Promises) is set for December 23 in Montreal.

The story takes place on the eve of World War I in Austria. At that time, psychology, as a science, was still in its infancy. Carl Jung (Michael Fassbender) and Sigmund Freud (Viggo Mortensen), respectively a Swiss psychologist/psychiatrist and an Austrian neurologist, meet for the first time. This is because Freud is enthralled by Jung's favourable views on psychoanalysis, a method that Freud pioneered.

The film will mostly document the moment when Carl Jung treats Sabiena Spielrein (Keira Knightley), a patient who suffers from hysteria. Despite being married to Emma Jung (Sarah Gadon), Carl Jung gets into a extramarital relationship with Sabina Spielrein. In 1909, this relation might become public and Jung talks about it to Freud.

Ever since Alien was pitched as “a haunted house movie in space” 30 years ago, it seems like there have been more of those damned houses out amongst the stars than there have been on Earth. Genre fans (particularly those who have frequented the Sci Fi/Syfy channel) have long gotten used to the sight of interstellar travelers creeping/running down futuristic corridors in search of/away from some cosmic threat or other. Pandorum, produced by the team behind one of the bigger/gorier examples of the subgenre, Event Horizon, is a fairly successful attempt to do something a little different with the formula.

The opening scenes get the movie off to an effectively claustrophobic/mysterious start, as a young man suddenly awakens in a cryogenic sleep pod somewhere within the bowels of an expansive spacecraft (which we’re told at the start is the Elysium, on a colonization run to...

The box office weekend ahead promises a buffet of films looking to satisfy the science fiction, horror and musical fans. Bruce Willis starrer “Surrogates” should be the one to back for a top spot, dropping current topper “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.” The Touchstone Pictures science fiction thriller helmed by Jonathan Mostow (“Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines,” “U-571”) unspools via Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures into 2,951 locations. Also in the cast are Radha Mitchell, Rosamund Pike, Boris Kodjoe, James Francis Ginty, Michael Cudlitz with James Cromwell and Ving Rhames. Science fiction horror “Pandorum” should keep fans of the genre on the edge of their seats under the direction of “Antibodies” helmer Christian Alvart. Overture Films distributes the eerie looking film with Dennis Quaid, Ben Foster, Cam Gigandet, Antje Traue, Cung Le, Eddie Rouse, André Hennicke and Norman Reedus into 2,400 locations.

"Pandorum" looks to scare uat this weekend's box office. The science fiction horror directed by Christian Alvart who co-writes with Travis Milloy, stars Dennis Quaid, Ben Foster, Cam Gigandet, Antje Traue, Cung Le, Eddie Rouse, André Hennicke and Norman Reedus. The film was shot in Berlin, Germany and is rated R. See it on September 25th. Two astronauts awaken in a hyper-sleep chamber aboard a seemingly abandoned spacecraft. It's pitch black, they are disoriented, and the only sound is a low rumble and creak from the belly of the spacecraft. They can't remember anything - who are they, what is their mission? The only way out of the chamber is a dark and narrow airshaft. Corporal Bower (Foster)...

“Pandorum” opens this Friday, and the studio are pulling out all the stops. The latest is a three-minute behind-the-scenes sizzle reel with cast and crew interviews. A pair of crew members aboard a spaceship wake up with no knowledge of their mission or their identities. Starring Dennis Quaid, Ben Foster, Cam Gigandet, Antje Traue, Cung Le, Eddie Rouse, Norman Reedus, André Hennicke, and Friederike Kempter. Directed by Christian Alvart.

If all of the creepy TV Spots haven't got your attention, maybe five clips will earn it? Beyond the break you'll find all the goods from Christian Alvart's Pandorum, which follows a young crew member who awakes from his hyper sleep chamber to discover he's alone on a massive spaceship. He ventures towards the bridge in search of others and to try and figure out what happened. Dennis Quaid, Ben Foster, Wotan Wilke Möhring, André M. Hennicke and Antje Traue all star in the pic arriving in theaters September 25 from Overture Films. Good thing they moved it to avoid Jennifer's Body...

We've just added five clips and now we have more than twenty new images from Overture Films' "Pandorum," starring Dennis Quaid, Ben Foster, Cam Gigandet, Antje Traue, Cung Le, Eddie Rouse, André Hennicke and Norman Reedus. Christian Alvart directs the film as well as writing alongside Travis Milloy. Jeremy Bolt, Paul W.S. Anderson, Martin Moszkowicz and Robert Kulzer produce. Two astronauts awaken in a hyper-sleep chamber aboard a seemingly abandoned spacecraft. It's pitch black, they are disoriented, and the only sound is a low rumble and creak from the belly of the spacecraft. They can't remember anything..

If horror is your bag then I’ve got just the thing for you. Two new clips have been released for Sci-fi horror, Pandorum.

Starring Dennis Quaid, Ben Foster, Wotan Wilke Möhring, André M. Hennicke, Antje Traue, Cam Gigandet, Norman Reedus and Asia Luna Mohmand, Pandorum seems to be a very visceral, “Event Horizon-esque” trip through space – just the ticket for a night at the movies!

The first clip comes courtesy of Bloody Disgusting, it features Ben Foster (3:10 To Yuma, 30 Days Of Night) and gives us our first real look at the beastie stalking the ship. The second clip hails from Shock Till You Drop and gives us another look at the big bad. Check them both out below:

Two crewmen awaken from hyper-sleep aboard a spacecraft. None of their equipment is working, and their memories are incomplete. What was their mission? How much time has passed? Where are they?...

Yesterday Empire brought us a brand new quad poster for the spooky sci-fi horror, Pandorum, starring Dennis Quaid, Ben Foster, Wotan Wilke Möhring, André M. Hennicke, Antje Traue, Cam Gigandet, Norman Reedus and Asia Luna Mohmand.

Two crewmen awaken from hyper-sleep aboard a spacecraft. None of their equipment is working, and their memories are incomplete. What was their mission? How much time has passed? Where are they? Who are they? As they try to piece things together, they discover they are not alone, and the ship’s new inhabitants – tribal warriors carrying crudely made weapons – are moving among them, intent on killing all aboard. As the space travelers unravel the frightening and deadly secrets the ship harbors, they realize the survival of mankind hinges on their actions. They must regain control of the ship before Pandorum takes over.

Pandorum is scheduled for UK release on 18th September 2009, check out the new poster below:

It's pitch black, they are disoriented, and the only sound is a low rumble and creak from the belly of the spacecraft. They can't remember anything - who are they, what is their mission? The only way out of the chamber is a dark and narrow airshaft. Corporal Bower (Foster), the younger of the two, crawls inside, while the other, Lt. Payton (Quaid)...

If you thought the marketing for this film couldn’t get any wierder then think again, a new “motion poster” has debuted over at Yahoo for the sci-fi/horror flick Pandorum – and I’ve got to say it’s making me a little uncomfortable – although perhaps that’s just because it’s 6:39 in the morning and I’m half asleep! Check it out below, and brace yourself!
