Soon they find themselves in the crosshairs of a group of murderous vampire hunters.
Rea tells us, “I think we’ve made a fun and original found-footage feature that we hope pleases fans of the sub-genre. We are planning for a festival premiere possibly in the late summer.”

French filmmaker Leos Carax discussed the sacred nature of the image and the challenge of retaining its power on the big screen in the digital age in an on-stage conversation at the Doha Film Institute’s Qumra event on Monday.
The filmmaker said he had transitioned to shooting in digital in his segment of the 2008 feature Tokyo!, one of his first works after the death of his beloved cinematographer Jean-Yves Escoffier, who died age 52 in 2003.
Carax revealed this move had changed his filmmaking process as he took the decision to stop watching the dailies from then on, which resulted in him ditching his habit of doing multiple retakes.
The director admitted that 15 years on, he is not a huge fan of shooting in digital.
“I don’t come from there. I still feel It’s a bad thing, even for the eyes… it’s become such a problem with digital...

The French actress will receive the European Achievement in World Cinema Award at this year's European Film Awards ceremony. In recognition of a rich and diverse career in front of the camera, French actress Juliette Binoche will receive the honorary European Achievement in World Cinema Award during the 32nd European Film Awards ceremony on 7 December in Berlin. Born in Paris, Juliette Binoche started performing in theatre already as a child. Rendez-Vous by André Téchiné was the first real entrance to what would become an impressive career in film (after Jean-Luc Godard’s Hail Mary), playing a young actress coming to Paris to realise her dream. After playing in The Night Is Young by Léos Carax, she started her international film career with The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1988) by Philip Kaufman. Working with Léos Carax again, The Lovers on the Bridge won her a first Efa in 1992. Three Colours:...

This year, maybe more than any other in recent memory, features a unique format of storytelling: having multiple actors play the same character in various stages of his or her life. It’s not a new trend by any stretch of the imagination but it has cropped up in this year’s Oscar race with the likes of Hidden Figures, Lion, and Moonlight all in the mix.
Each of these films is considered a frontrunner for being a best picture nominee, according to Scott Feinberg of The Hollywood Reporter in his most recent check-in before Thanksgiving. The actors and actresses who are being portrayed by various players are key players in the acting categories, too: Taraji P. Henson is considered a major threat for Hidden Figures and Dev Patel is a frontrunner for best supporting actor for Lion. Mahershala Ali,...
