Bad Weed is not a good name for a movie but thankfully, you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover (or a movie by its name – you get my point!).

We first see Carlos being interviewed leaving the courtroom after a seemingly successful trial, for himself at least. But moments later he awakes in a forest with his hands handcuffed behind him. He is being chased and attacked by a sociopath but is saved by a woman who lives in the secluded...

Exclusive: UK’s Soda Pictures has picked up remake of cult classic Vampyres.

Paris-based Reel Suspects has acquired Macedonian director Vardan Tozija’s crime-drama Amok [pictured] about an introverted, abandoned teenager who goes on to lead a gang of violent, feral lost boys.

“It’s a really powerful film, a Macedonian version of the City of God. It came to me through my network and I’ve been following it since the project stage,” says Reel Suspects CEO Matteo Lovadina, who is aiming for a Toronto international premiere for the film.

The picture stars first-time actor Martin Gjorgoski as Phillip, a rough, marginalised teenager, who is forced to participate in a terrifying encounter by a corrupt policeman while in the care of social services.

Irrevocably damaged, he is hell-bent on seeking violent revenge on society, enlisting the other “lost boys” in the tough juvenile adoption centre he calls home.

In 1974 director José Ramón Larraz released a blood-soaked erotic film called Vampyres, which told the tale of a lesbian vampire couple who would waylay and abduct various passers-by, both male and female, to hold them captive at their rural manor... as a means to make them midnight snacks.

Now director Victor Matellano is back with a remake of Vampyres, which stars Marta Flich (Omnivores) and Almudena Leon (Wax) alongside Christian Stamm, Veronica Bacorn, Caroline Munro, Anthony Rotsa, Victor Vidal, Luis Hacha, Alina Nastise and Remedios Darkin.

Larraz, who died in September 2013, took part in the pre-production of the new movie.
