Stars: Michael Gross, Jaime Kennedy, Tanya van Graan, Greg Kriek, Jay Anstey | Written by John Whelpley | Directed by Don Michael Paul
In this, the sixth film in the long-running Tremors franchise, Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) and his son Travis Welker (Jamie Kennedy) are called to a research facility in the frozen tundra of the Canadian Arctic. They find themselves up to their ears in Graboids and Ass-Blasters investigating a series of deadly giant-worm attacks. Burt begins to suspect that Graboids are secretly being weaponized, but before he can prove his theory, he is side-lined by Graboid venom. With just 48 hours to live, the only hope is to create an antidote from fresh venom – but to do that, someone will have to figure out how to milk a Graboid.

While these pictures may not include any monsters – nor anyone that looks particularly chilly – the first images from Tremors 6: A Cold Day In Hell are entirely on-brand for the iconic horror-comedy franchise, which is now in its 28th year.
Featuring Michael Gross as Burt Gummer – the only character to have appeared in every Tremors project released so far – they reveal plenty of guns being aimed out of buildings, pneumatic drills and some tense ‘don’t walk on the ground!’ shots. Mostly, though, we can see that Gross and his cast are having a great time, and that’s really what this franchise is all about.
The premise for the series is gloriously simple. Back in 1990, we saw the tiny, desert town of Perfection ravaged by monsters called Graboids that live under the sand. With the action then led by Kevin Bacon’s Val McKee and Fred Ward’s Earl Bass,...

Title: Inescapable IFC Films Director: Ruba Nadda Screenwriter: Ruba Nadda Cast: Alexander Siddig, Marisa Tomei, Joshua Jackson, Oded Fehr, Saad Siddiqui, Jay Anstey Screened at: Core Club, 66 E 55 St., NYC, 1/31/13 Opens: February 22, 2013 When we read about scores, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of Syrians dying during the current civil war in that mysterious country, we recognize that these are just numbers, statistics. What could make these figures hit home, of course, would be to hone in on just one of the victims. What does a person’s death, disfigurement or disappearance mean to that individual’s loved ones? Ruba Nadda takes on that theme with “Inescapable,” graphically [ Read More ]

Inescapable
Directed by Ruba Nadda
Written by Ruba Nadda
Canada, 2012
It is no secret that virtually every story has been told already. There are, as it would seem, no remaining new and original tales for screenwriters and directors to share with audiences at this point in time. Sure, some of the details my be re-arranged so as to keep projects as fresh as possible, but the bare essentials remain the same. It is similar to pizza and its many possible toppings. One may bury in meat, vegetables or a pleasant mixture of both, it’s still a pizza. Sometimes however, the sense that a story has been told before in film comes as more obvious, not necessarily because of remakes or reboots (although those are quite prominent), but because a film driven by the same storyline literally came out only a short time ago. In such cases, how the filmmakers...
