Bonkers Trailer for the Hungry Hippo Horror Movie Called 'Hungry'

"You're safe as long as you stay out of the water." Aura Enterainment has debuted the official trailer for a bonkers dumb extra wild new animal horror movie called Hungry, about a hippo from hell hunting people down. The riff is that this is pretty much what if Hungry Hungry Hippos (the board game) was turned into a horror movie, but they don't really have the rights to the game, so it's not actually connected to it that way. Just another brutally fun creature feature horror about a vicious massive hippopotamus out in the Louisiana swamps! "All aboard the swamp tour from hell." The story follows a group of thrill-seeking tourists on a riverboat tour through treacherous Louisiana swamp lands. Lured off the beaten path by the promise of an exclusive adventure, they find themselves fighting for survival against a ravenous hippo lurking beneath the bayou's murky waters. 🦛 This horror thriller stars Madison Davenport, Joaquim de Almeida, Olivia Bernstone, Tracey Bonner, Michel Curiel, Jim Meskimen, Samantha Coughlan, River Codack. This looks totally nuts! And actually entertaining. That's one extra mean, super pissed off hippo right there. // Continue Reading ›

Hilarious First Trailer for Broken Lizard's 'Super Troopers 3' Sequel

"Is it possible we're no longer the cool guys in our own story?" Light 'em up. Searchlight has unveiled the first official trailer for Super Troopers 3, the next funny sequel from the comedy troupe Broken Lizard. Following up their two biggest hits – Super Troopers in 2001 and Super Troopers 2 in 2018. The mustache rides, again. Again. When Farva's over-the-top Indian engagement to Thorny's sister spirals into chaos, the Super Troopers must navigate Thorny's schemes to break up the relationship, all while trying to bring down a pernicious new drug ring. All to save the day and maybe the wedding itself. Well this all sounds ridiculous – of course. The whole troop is back with some newcomers: Jay Chandrasekhar, Kevin Heffernan, Steve Lemme, Paul Soter, Erik Stolhanske, Brian Cox, with Marisa Coughlan, Nat Faxon, Chace Crawford, Andrew Dismukes, Hannah Simone, Iqbal Theba, Sakina Jaffrey, Lisa Gilroy, Jon Rudnitsky. Are they still the cool guys? I'm not even sure anymore. Turns out this isn't the only new trailer full of idiots today. As fun as the first movie is, the sequels are really pushing it. Do you think it's still funny? // Continue Reading ›

Time to meet the Rogue Trooper! Finally – after years and years in development, it's getting close to being finished. UK comic book company 2000 A.D. has debuted a first look teaser trailer for the Rogue Trooper movie, a 3D animated feature written and directed by the sci-fi filmmaker Duncan Jones (his latest since Mute in 2018). This version is not live action, it's an animated feature made entirely with Unreal Engine 5. Producer Stuart Fenegan explains in an interview via Deadline why it has taken so long: "figuring out a new way of making a CG movie takes a while." Based on the sci-fi strip in the British comic 2000 A.D., it follows the adventures of Rogue (starring Aneurin Barnard), a genetically engineered, blue-skinned super-soldier and his three comrades' search for the Traitor General. His buddies KIA have their personalities storied in his gun, backpack, and helmet as he goes to find out who sold them out. Also starring Hayley Atwell, Jack Lowden, Daryl McCormack, Reece Shearsmith, Diane Morgan, Alice Lowe, Asa Butterfield, and Sean Bean. Only a very quick first look at any footage while we wait for updates. I'm ready to watch more. // Continue Reading ›

First Look Trailer for 'A Fire There' Doc Following Three Armenian Men

"Everything before you is bright, and yet you're sad." Screen Daily has revealed the first official trailer for an indie documentary film titled A Fire There, from director Marlene Edoyan, which is premiering soon at the 2026 Visions du Réel Film Festival in Switzerland this spring before stopping by Hot Docs in Canada after. This is a compelling story of three young men who all live in a remote Armenian village in southern Georgia navigating tensions between inherited traditions and their desire to shape their own futures. This very cinematically poetic and intimate film is about not only the lives of young men today, but about life in a remote area of the world most of us have never been to or even heard of before. "Between life in the present and visions of the future, between traditions, beliefs and family ties, three life stories remain to be dreamed and written, rendered through a keen sense of visual composition and skillful editing, somewhere between documentary and visual poetry." I'm always intrigued by beautifully-made docs like this one - worth a look. // Continue Reading ›

Movie History Doc 'Broken Rhythm: Bruce Lee's Game of Death' Trailer

"You don't walk away from 30 mins of footage, especially when the star is the director!" Asymmetry Films has released the first official trailer for a documentary film titled Broken Rhythm: Bruce Lee's Game of Death, a look back at the making of Bruce Lee's last film. This premieres soon at the NYC Independent Film Festival if anyone is interested in catching it. Taking us back in time, the doc examines Bruce Lee's making of Game of Death, focusing on the 1972-era Game of Death footage and 23 minutes that Bruce Lee filmed before his passing. "The 1978 release – premiering five years after Lee's death – contained only a fraction of what he filmed in 1972. Producer André Morgan, involved in both versions, guides us through the complex timeline behind the film's completion, shedding light on the creative, financial, and logistical compromises that reshaped Lee's original vision." Featuring tons of interviews with many people involved in the production, offering "fresh perspectives on his artistic intent." The whole film will "recontextualize Lee's legacy while exploring how his work grapples with enduring existential questions of life, death, identity, and the pursuit of artistic immortality." Sounds & looks interesting enough, I'm curious to see. What about you? // Continue Reading ›
