We've been hoping, praying for the trailer for THE SALVATION to come along
I first encountered Mads Mikkelsen back in 2004 in Antoine Fuqua’s King Arthur. He played the sword-swinging knight Tristan, who along with Ray Winstone’s Bors were the only remarkable characters in a rather unremarkable movie. With the exception of his bloody eyed turn as Bond villain Le Chiffre in Casino Royale and his current deliciously dark run as Hannibal Lecter on NBC’s Hannibal, Mikkelsen …
Power is a fragile thing in this new trailer for SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR
Feeling all energetic and full of vigour for the weekend ahead? Well, let me fix that quickly.

This new trailer for PENNY DREADFUL is right behind you
Man, Alan Moore is gonna sue somebody! The league of extraordinary TV ideas may have been killed outright in the case of Penny Dreadful, but at least it sports a boatload more quality than that train wreck of a film. So win win! The Showtime series kicks off on May 11, and sees famous literary figures team up to stop …
This badass new trailer for 300: RISE OF AN EMPIRE shows you the ecstasy of steel and flesh
There’s a commonly known adage about not reinventing the wheel, and – as addendum – especially not when said wheel is a fist pumping, CGI painted spectacle of blood, guts and glory that has garnered quite the fanbase. All the trailers thus for 300: Rise of an Empire, director Noam Murro’s sequel to Zack Snyder’s blood soaked hit, seemed to indicate just …
