Resident evil after life in 3D

Resident Evil: Afterlife is an upcoming 3D science-fiction action-horror film written and directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, and starring Milla Jovovich, Ali Larter, Wentworth Miller, Kim Coates, Spencer Locke, Boris Kodjoe and Shawn Roberts. It is the fourth installment in a series of film adaptations based loosely on Capcom's survival horror video game series Resident Evil. It is also the first film in the series to be released in 3D. In the film Alice searches for and rescues remaining survivors in Los Angeles of the T-virus outbreak, who team up against Albert Wesker, the head of the Umbrella Corporation.





In May 2005, producers mentioned the possibility of following Resident Evil: Extinction with a sequel titled Afterlife. Extinction was released in 2007 and was a box office success prompting Afterlife to begin development in June 2008, with the script being written by Anderson that December. Elements from Resident Evil 5 were incorporated into the film.
The fourth installment of the hugely successful "Resident Evil" franchise, "Resident Evil: Afterlife" is again based on the wildly popular video game series, and will this time be presented in 3-D.
 In a world ravaged by a virus infection, turning its
victims into the Undead, Alice (Milla Jovovich), continues on her journey to find survivors and lead them to safety. Her deadly battle with the Umbrella Corporation reaches new heights, but Alice gets some unexpected help from an old friend. A new lead that promises a safe haven from the Undead takes them to Los Angeles, but when they arrive the city is overrun by thousands of Undead - and Alice and her comrades are about to step into a deadly trap.

Have a look at trailor.....


With a budget of $60 million,[ principal photography began on September 29, 2009, in Toronto, Canada, and wrapped in December 2009. Roberts began filming his scenes on October 10, 2009 and finished in about ten weeks. Anderson used James Cameron's Fusion Camera System, or more specifically a Sony F35 camera. Visual effects production manager Eric Roberston described the look of the film, "interesting contrasts, pure whites, which is a staggering look. It's so clean and tight along with some real darkness too that may evoke a bit of a feel of Silent Hill. So we've got the extremes, but it's definitely a unique look for this incarnation and it's been fun to see those looks".

SAW 7 in 3D- Latest news

The film yet to come


Saw 3D, the seventh film in the bloody successful series, has seen its trailer debut at the Lionsgate booth at Comic-Con this week.The studio has also confirmed that this will indeed be the final chapter in the series.

"There's something miraculous about creating a final chapter to the Saw chronology that not only gives the core fans everything they want and deserve, but also serves as a perfect introduction to audiences who are new to the series," says director Kevin Greutert. "I'm proud to have been part of Jigsaw's world from start to finish."




The after-hours Comic-Con event for the film takes place on Friday evening (moderated by IGN's own Eric Moro), and during that event the franchise will be honored by Guinness World Records as the "Most Successful Horror Movie Series." Producers Oren Koules and Mark Burg will be on hand to accept the award from Guinness Editor-in-Chief Craig Glenday, who will travel from Guinness World Record headquarters in London to present several awards at Comic-Con.


"We are thrilled that Saw has set a new Guinness World Record," say the producers. "It wouldn't be possible without our incredibly rabid and loyal fans and our great partners at Lionsgate."


Additionally, Saw 3D will return to the Halloween weekend release date that has treated the series so well in the past.

"It's been an amazing ride," add Koules and Burg. "As filmmakers it was important to us that Saw was one story in seven chapters rather than just a series of sequels."

Inception – Review

The Dream Is Real


The PR machine for Christopher Nolan’s “existential heist thriller” is well and truly in motion, people. Yesterday we had a great featurette to watch and today four posters have been put on the world-wide-web (via Collider) and they absolutely rock. Inception could be the brainiest, coolest and most visionary work of the entire year, never mind, summer.

With its international locales, visual richness, brilliant cast, sci-fi flourishes and mind-being plot: this is definitely a case of ‘great expectations’. God, I can’t wait to see this!


Synopsis:

Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable. Cobb’s rare ability has made him a coveted player in this treacherous new world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive and cost him everything he has ever loved. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption. One last job could give him his life back but only if he can accomplish the impossible–inception. Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his team of specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an idea but to plant one. If they succeed, it could be the perfect crime. But no amount of careful planning or expertise can prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every move. An enemy that only Cobb could have seen coming. This summer, your mind is the scene of the crime.
