The first trailer for the hotly anticipated “Dune” landed back in September of 2020. Now just weeks away from its big release, Warner Bros. has dropped a second trailer – an eye-popping three minute-plus dive into Denis Villeneuve’s sprawling science-fiction epic. This thing only looks better and better with each reveal.

Where the first trailer felt more like a tease, trailer #2 really pulls you into this massive immersive world Villeneuve is creating. We also get better looks at the movies enormously talented cast. Jason Momoa, Oscar Isaac, Rebecca Ferguson, and Josh Brolin all get highlighted. And of course Timothee Chalamet and Zendaya are the centerpieces. I’ll be honest, last year’s trailer got me interested in “Dune”. This one has be genuinely excited. I can’t wait.

“Dune” opens October 22nd in theaters and streaming on HBO Max. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.

When he’s not making big-budget superhero blockbusters for the DCEU, you can usually find filmmaker James Wan hanging out in the horror genre. He was the director of the first “Saw” film, the first “Insidious” movie, and of course the first two “Conjuring” films. Now he’s back with “Malignant”, a brand new original horror thriller with all the creepy markings of a James Wan production.

In the new trailer for “Malignant” Annabelle Wallis plays a woman tormented by gruesome dreams of people being murdered. She’s shaken to her core when she discovers that her visions aren’t actually dreams but realities and that both she and the murders are inescapably connected to a malevolent entity known as Gabriel. This is one killer trailer (bad pun shamelessly intended). Wan knows how to ratchet up tension and if the trailer is any indication this could be a real nail-biter.

“Malignant” opens wide September 10th. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.

Today we finally got our first look at one of my most eagerly anticipated films of 2021 and one of the movies I’m most curious about. “The Last Duel” is the new film from director Ridley Scott which automatically puts it on my must-see list. Not because all of his films are great, but because I always find his work interesting and have enjoyed far more of his movies than not. Adding to the intrigue, its written by Nicole Holofcener, Matt Damon, and Ben Affleck. Cap it off with a cast that includes Damon, Affleck, Adam Driver, and Jodie Comer.

The story is based on Eric Jager’s 2004 book about the last recorded Trial By Combat duel in France. Set in the 14th century, a mullet-topped Matt Damon accuses his squire Adam Driver of raping his wife Comer. Driver’s character denies the claim which leads to the eponymous duel to the death. Scott is no stranger to period epics and I love the brutal setting. I’ll admit I did snicker a bit at Damon’s mop and Affleck’s all-blonde look. But I’m all-in with this and I hope it reaches its enormous potential.

“The Last Duel” hits theaters October 15th. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.

Today was a cool day for those of us eagerly anticipating Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune” remake. Today Warner Bros. released NINE new character posters and they look amazing. They also show off the unreal amount of talent set to appear in this nearly $200 million movie. Check ’em out.

There has been no shortage of true-crime movies, television shows, and streaming specials on Theodore “Ted” Bundy, one of the most notorious and frightening serial killers in United States history. And at this point I’m not sure if there is anything new to learn about the good-looking and charismatic sociopath. But the new trailer for “No Man of God” is hard to look away from and its ‘based-on-true-events’ story isn’t as much about the killings themselves as it is the confessions that finally came after months of lies, misdirection, and denials.

The most chilling thing about the trailer is Luke Kirby’s staggering resemblance to Bundy. His look, temperament, mannerisms all match the footage we’ve seen of the killer. Elijah Wood (who also produced the film) plays FBI Special Agent Bill Hagmaier, one of the Bureau’s first criminal profilers. Hagmaier is tasked with getting inside of Bundy’s head, earning his trust, and rooting out confessions. The movie shows the uncomfortable interviews and the effects it has on Hagmaier outside of the interrogation room. I like the film’s tight focus and it looks to be going for authenticity which is definitely the right move.

“No Man of God” lands in theaters and on VOD August 27th. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.
