A competitive figure skater with Olympic aspirations turns her back on the sport by escaping to Canada in director Bruce Sweeney's border-hopping family drama. Celia (Rebecca De Mornay) is an uncompromising coach determined to push her daughter, Jenna (Jane McGregor), towards an Olympic gold metal. After Jenna's routine in the national figure-skating finals proves less than stellar, the dejected young...
Okay, okay. In response to this post , my in-box is full of angry brickbats from readers who liked the made-for-tv Shining movie. Apparently, King hated the Kubrick version -- which I think was one of the few Kubrick movies that wasn't overrated! -- and he, and quite a few King fans, think the miniseries was a more faithful adaptation of the book. Noted. Perhaps my curmudgeonly attitude is attributable...
What an awful, awful idea. I had to look up something about The Shining and found out they made a remake with Steven Weber (the goofy ladies' man from Wings) in the Jack Nicholson role and Rebecca De Mornay in the Shelley Duvall part. Melvin Van Peeples picks up the torch from Scatman Crothers. It's like one of those fake movies Bill Murray previews at the beginning of Scrooged. Like this one: The...
Here it is, you first real behind-the-scenes look at Darren Lynn Bousman's reboot of the Troma classic (?!) Mother's Day. I hope you're ready for a schizophrenic mindfuck. See the full...
Along with Park Chan-wook, Bong Joon-ho is one of the many great cinematic talents that heralded a new wave of film-making from South Korea. He's perhaps most famous for his brilliant family-centered monster film, The Host, and his previous effort Memories of Murder breathed new life into the police procedural. While doing rounds for his latest film, Mother, Joon-ho chatted with Frosty at Collider...

Today we have behind the scenes footage and the first photo from Darren Lynn Bousman (Saw 2 & 3) directed “Mother’s Day,” a remake of Charles Kaufman’s 1980 Troma cult classic. Shawn Ashmore, Mother’s Day In the horror-thriller, sadistic members of a villainous family return to their childhood home to terrorize the new home owners and their [...]
Darren Bousman is up in Toronto filming the MOTHER'S DAY remake with Rebecca De Mornay, Jaime King, Briana Evigan, Alexa Vega and Shawn Ashmore and has taken some time out of his busy day to file a video blog from the set. It's less a blog than just a behind-the-scenes little vid of Bousman talking to the actors and prepping the scenes (oddly narrated by Bousman's Twitter updates). It's supposedly...
Rebecca De Mornay stars as the mother in this horror film about really sick and disgusting members of a villainous family return to their childhood home to terrorize the new home owners and their guests. The producers are calling this horror movie a remake, but the story doesn’t appear to be like the original. Anyway this is a [...]
