Katie Holmes stars in this sequel to 2016’s little-seen creepy doll horror The Boy. It’s directed by William Brent Bell, who clearly has an affinity for this sort of thing, because in addition to helming the original film, he’s just signed on to direct Esther, a prequel to 2009’s superficially similar Orphan.
Brahms begins with a poorly staged prologue in which Liza (Holmes) and her young son Jude (Christopher Convery) are traumatised by a home invasion. The attack leaves Jude unable to speak, so Liza and husband Sean (Owain Yeoman) decide to get away from it all and holiday in the guest house of a mansion in the north of England. They’re there all of five minutes before Jude...

The demand for original television programming is sky-rocketing and doesn’t appear to be coming down any time soon. From the explosion of subscription services like Netflix and Hulu, to websites and brands looking to step into the original content game, to the continued expansion of scripted and unscripted programming on dozens of cable channels, outlets are desperately looking for original content that can stand-out in the abundance of programming now available to consumers.
Out of this demand has emerged a new way for creatives to break into TV: the Dyi pilot. Instead of writing a spec and trying to break into TV the old fashion way, content creators are following the path independent filmmakers and shooting low budget pilots that serve as proofs of concept for a hungry TV industry hoping to find the next “High Maintenance.”

Why do good actors insist on starring in bad movies? I realize roles are probably pretty scarce for relative unknowns, but you wouldn't pounce upon a pile of shit just because you were sort of hungry, would you? Almost Heaven is a prime example of such desperate shit-eating. You might remember Donal Logue from the kind-of-amusing Grounded for Life and, um, the romantic comedy Just Like Heaven (I only watched it for Mark Ruffalo, I swear!) I actually think Logue is a good comedic actor, even if he does at times give off a douchy Dane Cook-esque vibe, but if he keeps deciding to take on roles in films as mediocre as Almost Heaven, he won't have much of a career.
The film concerns washed up, recently-divorced TV director Mark Brady (Donal Logue), who gets somewhat of a professional break when he lands a job shooting a Scottish wildlife program about fish.

TORONTO -- Tom Conti ("Shirley Valentine") and Joely Collins ("The Dead Zone") have joined the cast of Shel Piercy's romantic comedy feature "Almost Heaven", shooting in suburban Vancouver and Glasgow, it was announced Tuesday. The quirky Canada/U.K. co-production between Vancouver-based Infinity films and London-based Rafford Films also stars Donal Logue ("The Tao of Steve") and Kirsty Mitchell ("Greyfriars"). Collins plays a bitter ex-wife starring in a TV fishing show shot in the Scottish Borders region by a charismatic, mostly drunk director (Logue), to whom her character was once married. Piercy wrote the feature screenplay with Richard Beattie. Producer credits go to Cynthia Chapman of Infinity and Allan Scott for Rafford, while Peter Simpson and Dan Carriere are executive producing. Norstar Films is distributing "Almost Heaven", which is set for a December release.
