Horrified. To her a diet is a disease, any diet, a point that has her quoting Montesquieu in Christian Vincent “Haute Cuisine” to the effect that, well, a diet is a disease.

The Stanley Film Festival, which will host its debut fest at the iconic and legendary Stanley Hotel in Colorado from May 2-5, has announced its official feature film line-up, with the Eli Roth-starring earthquake thriller Aftershock taking center stage as the fest’s closing night film.

Roth will be on hand to accept the Inaugural Visionary Award and take part in a Q&A after the film.

“Since his debut on the film festival scene with Cabin Fever in 2002, Eli Roth has become a leading force in the horror genre. Whether acting, producing, directing or writing – his many talents are what made titles like Hostel and Inglourious Basterds shine,” says Festival Director Jenny Bloom. “His body of work will set the Stanley Film Festival Visionary Award precedent high for years to come.”

The Stanley Film Festival is curated by Programming Director Landon Zakheim and programmer Michael Lerman, who selected films from 13 different countries,...

The Pack Trailer has premiered. Franck Richard‘s The Pack / La Meute (2010) Movie stars Yolande Moreau, Émilie Dequenne, Benjamin Biolay, Philippe Nahon, and Brice Fournier. The Pack‘s plot synopsis: “In the middle of a snowy no man’s land, Charlotte picks up Max, a hitchhiker; they stop in a truck-stop restaurant, and when Max doesn’t come back from the bathroom, Charlotte starts looking for him in vain. She decides to return during the night but gets kidnapped by the bartender, La Spack, who turns out to be Max’s mother and needs to feed her kids, ‘The pack’, a bunch of blood lusting ghouls. Charlotte now faces a terrifying reality: these ghouls are already dead… and hungry. Alone and in the middle of nowhere, she quickly realizes… she’s next on the menu!”

This horror movie looks gloriously nuts. One question: What’s in that tube going into Charlotte (Émilie Dequenne)’s mouth?...

Franck Richard's 'The Pack' (Aka 'La Meute') has been picked up by Icon here in the UK and will be receiving a UK-based DVD and Blu-Ray release! And in addition to this great bit of newsage it appears that the Brit horror illustrator Graham Humphreys will be providing the sleeve art (check it out below). Humphreys, as you should know(!), is responsible for some fantastic artwork from some classic horror's such as 'Evil Dead', 'Evil Dead II', 'Basket Case' and a bunch of 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' video artwork too (parts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5). My personal favourite is his 'Evil Dead 2' UK Quad poster which has been attached to my office wall for years! 'The Pack' stars stars Emilie Dequenne (below), Yolande Moreau, Eric Godon, Philippe Nahon, Benjamin Biolay, Brice Fournier and is written as well as helmed by Richard. Check the artwork and trailer below.

Indomina Releasing will be distributing Franck Richard's French language horror film The Pack theatrically in North America, but no specific date has been set. To help whet your appetites, a new United Kingdom trailer has become available for this demonic creature feature, which shows many of the sightless and sighted villains.

And this is not one family that you want to dine with, as seen by the clip. Because those invited to La Spack's abode will soon be the main meaty course. Have a look at the gory clip below, with Icon to release this title on DVD and Blu-Ray July 4th - exclusively in the United Kingdom. Hell awaits below.

The synopsis for The Pack aka La Meute:

"Alone on a road trip, Charlotte (Émilie Dequenne) stops at the side of an isolated side to pick up a hitchhiker, Max (Benjamin Biolay). But when the pair pulls...

Those Frenchies are at it again. Following on from the release of the new trailer for French zombie flick 'The Horde' yesterday (read here) we have a new clip for you, this time from Franck Richard's 'The Pack' (Aka 'La Meute'). This great new horror caused some controversy at the Cannes festival for being 'too disturbing' which is always a good sign. Check it out below, but don't expect to see much. The movie stars Emilie Dequenne (below), Yolande Moreau, Eric Godon, Philippe Nahon, Benjamin Biolay, Brice Fournier and is written as well as helmed by Richard. 'In the middle of a snowy no man's land, Charlotte picks up Max, a hitchhiker; they stop in a truck-stop restaurant, and when Max doesn't come back from the bathroom, Charlotte starts looking for him in vain.

Sold all over the world at the last Cannes market is Franck Richard's French creature feature "The Pack", a new film from the company behind "Inside". Too bad nobody acquired it for a U.S. release. We'll let you know as soon as that happens. While we wait for a trailer, a few news stills have found their way online and can be found below. The film starring Philippe Nahon ("High Tension"), Yolande Moreau, Émilie Dequenne, Eric Godon, Benjamin Biolay and Brice Fournier....

The latest news on Franck Richard's French language film La Meute, or The Pack was that the film would screen in Cannes, but then a cancellation. So, while Cannes was not quite the success for The Pack that the festival could have been several film photos from the production have begun to filter out that show the pack on fire (below), under the gun (left), or tormenting their captors (below). Immerse yourself in a world where children come in the form of ghouls and where a family must feed their insatiable appetites.
