Official Trailer for 'Flag Day' Doc About Three Oaks' Flag Day Parade

"The flag is for all of us." 🇺🇸 Indeed it is. Abramorama has unveiled the official trailer for the documentary film about America called Flag Day, made by the filmmaker duo Andrew & Melissa Shea – known as Shea & Shea. It's being released in theaters starting in June coinciding with the upcoming US Flag Day on June 14th in the summer. The film is a timely and deeply human portrait of community, identity, and tradition in contemporary America. Set in the small farming community of Three Oaks, Michigan near Chicago (see Google Maps) — home to the nation's largest Flag Day parade (visit their website) — Flag Day is a verité doc portrait of ritual, identity, and belonging in an era of deep political division. Filmed in an observational, verité style, Flag Day captures moments of humor, conflict, and grace as the community prepares for its defining ritual, offering a ground-level portrait of civic life that holds both the good and the hard truths of being American. The directors state: "Flag Day began as an effort to listen closely to a community coming together around a shared tradition, and to better understand what that ritual reveals about who we are." It looks like the kind of wholesome and humble storytelling we could use more of – reminding us we're all one. // Continue Reading ›

Must See First Trailer for 'Coyote vs Acme' with Will Forte & John Cena

"This is your opportunity to really show people what you're capable of!" And here we go! Finally it's time! Ketchup Entertainment has debuted the first official trailer for the Coyote vs. Acme movie, an animation + live-action hybrid meta comedy event from Warner Bros Animation. Unfortunately WB (*Acme) decided to cancel the project, writing it off as a tax loss, but after a very vocal public campaign the movie was bought and revived by Ketchup Ent. Coyote vs. Acme is now hitting theaters nationwide in late August this summer, a chance for the Roadrunner, Wile E. Coyote, and friends to shine on the big screen. After Acme products fail him one too many times in his dogged pursuit of the Roadrunner, Mr. Wile E. Coyote decides to hire a billboard lawyer to sue the Acme Corporation. Starring Will Forte as Kevin Avery, Wile E. Coyote's lawyer, with John Cena, Lana Condor, P.J. Byrne, Tone Bell, Martha Kelly, and Luis Guzmán.

Florida People Gone Wild in 'The Python Hunt' Doc Film Official Trailer

"The Burning Man of snake hunting: it brings the wrong kind of attention to this problem." 🐍 Oscope Labs has unveiled an official trailer for a documentary film titled The Python Hunt, going right into the jungle during the annual snake hunt in Florida. This first premiered at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival last year and it also screened at Beyond Fest, Sitges, Miami, Nashville, Philadelphia, and tons of other local film festivals. Every year the Florida government invites folks to compete in an invasive Burmese python removal contest in the Everglades to help with overpopulation and species management. For 10 nights, an eclectic group of hunters confront the dangerous terrain, nocturnal creatures and their own desires. "The film features some impressive moments of snake spectacle, but the real attraction is the human drama that emerges from the larger-than-life personalities." This sounds like a wild & crazy descent into the mad minds of snake hunters. One review says: "The Python Hunt is a documentary that might do for the Burmese Python what Jaws did 50 years ago for the Great White Shark." Maybe? Or maybe it's another reminder to stay away from Florida. // Continue Reading ›

Official US Trailer for Hand-Drawn Anime 'Jinsei' from Ryuya Suzuki

"Do you think we can be... superstars?" Greenwich Entertainment has unveiled an official US trailer for an indie animation film titled Jinsei, which translates directly to "life" in Japanese. This is not your typical anime production from Japan, it's an independent creation from one up-and-coming director. The film is entirely hand-drawn, written, directed, edited by, and scored by a filmmaker name Ryuya Suzuki over two years of time. A man's journey through life, marked by various names and labels, leads him to unexpected success while confronting modern social issues & personal struggles along the way. The Tokyo Film Festival describes it with more awe: "From birth to death, each person goes through life with a variety of nicknames, and sometimes derogatory. This is an epic feature animation that follows the tumultuous 100-year life of 'the man who was never called by his real name.'" Featuring the Japanese rapper ACE COOL as the voice of the main character. This looks wonderfully unique and existentially fascinating in its examination of life and what it all means and how everyone we interact with matters, etc. I'm curious to watch. What do you think? // Continue Reading ›

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 ›
