If the Super Bowl can spawn takeoffs like the Puppy Bowl and the Lingerie Bowl, why doesn’t the Oscars have a dedicated parody equivalent? (And no, the Razzies, with their flip-side “honorifics,” doesn’t really count.) Well, they do, actually — in the form of the Toscars, an annual event/contest in which short films spoofing some of the year’s most lauded motion pictures are showcased. Sponsored by Brits in La — one of the largest British ex-pats groups in the world, with close to 5,000 members living and working in the City of Angels – the Toscars consists of entries which must be produced in only three weeks, starting the day the Academy Award nominations [ Read More ]

From my experience, horror films are always the most interesting but least attended films at smaller film festivals as festival audiences seem to be more interested in stories about losing your virginity than werewolves and zombies.

Nine people trapped in a lift facing death? Is this M. Knight Shyamalan’s Devil? Nope this is Elevator. A low-budget genre flick that does more with its limited resources than Devil ever did. A slow-burning, tense thriller that both knows, and plays with, genre conventions, the film sees nine people – Henry Barton (whose cocktail party they are all attending), his precocious granddaughter, two office executives, a glamorous TV news presenter, a pregnant woman, a nervous pensioner, the evening’s comic entertainer and a bodyguard – trapped in a lift after Barton’s granddaughter presses the emergency stop button as a practical joke on the claustrophobic, and obnoxious, comedian. Only one of the nine has a grudge against the Barton and his investment...

The thriller stars Christopher Backus ('Among Friends'), John Getz ('The Social Network'), Shirley Knight, Michael Mercurio, Amanda Pace, Rachel Pace, Devin Ratray, Joey Slotnick, Tehmina Sunny and Waleed Zuaiter along with Icelandic hottie Anita Briem -below ('Journey to the Center of the Earth', 'Dylan Dog: Dead of Night').

From the Press Release

A group of people get the shaft in the worst way imaginable when Elevator rides onto DVD August 21 from Inception Media Group. In this Hitchcock-esque, white-knuckle thriller, nine strangers are stuck in an elevator on the 49th floor of an upscale Manhattan high-rise … and one of them has a ticking bomb! But who … and why?

The rising star TV news reporter … building security guard … or soon-to-retire millionaire CEO with his granddaughter?

Desperation and panic grow as help fails to...

That’s just the way it goes! So, to make it fair for all of the other adorable love birds out there, we’ve taken them out of the competition. But we’ve made Robsten the gold standard by which we measure and rank the rest of the sweethearts! So please Twihards, don’t send us angry letters.

Sure, 2011 was largely seen as the Year of the Breakup. That doesn’t mean love didn’t flourish! We’ve asked stars who they think should earn the title of “Cutest Couple 2k11,” and their answers ranged from the predicable, to the, err … not so predictable.

We recently visited the set of Elevator, an independent film that takes place on, you guessed it, an elevator. During a party for the Barton Investment Company, nine people end up trapped in the elevator of a Manhattan hi-rise and discover someone has a bomb. The result is a story of racial tension, financial scandal, scorned lovers, and revenge.

The key here is that the action occurs Entirely on an elevator. With the exception of one brief establishing scene at the start of the film, the nine-member cast spends 90 minutes confined to a small metal box as the drama unfolds around them.

It is written and produced by Marc Rosenberg, a Texas native transplanted to Australia, who is back in the States making his first U.S. film with Norwegian director Stig Svendson. Tor Arne Øvrebø, Svendson's line producer on many projects prior to Elevator, is...
