Another Trailer for New Adaptation of 'Lord of the Flies' by Jack Thorne

"Who are you anyway?" Netflix has debuted their own official trailer for Lord of the Flies, a new mini-series based on the iconic book of the same name. It was made by BBC and is being released in the US in May on Netflix. BBC says it's "truthful to the original novel" – set in the early 1950s on an unnamed Pacific island – Jack Thorne's adaptation delves further into the book’s emotive themes; human nature, the loss of innocence and boyhood masculinity." A classic story reborn for television - Lord of the Flies is the story of a group of young schoolchildren who find themselves stranded on a tropical island with no adults, where civilisation turns to violence and chaos. An ensemble cast of over 30 boys in this adaptation, many making professional acting debuts, features: Winston Sawyers as Ralph, Lox Pratt as Jack, David McKenna as Piggy and Ike Talbut as Simon. They are joined by fellow castaways including Thomas Connor as Roger, Noah & Cassius Flemyng as twins Sam & Eric, Cornelius Brandreth as Maurice, and Tom Page-Turner as Bill. This looks intense! And they're really playing up the "from the writer of Adolescence" angle meaning it'll be more brutally honest commentary about how totally screwed up many boys are these days. // Continue Reading ›

Official Trailer for '#Skyking' Doc About the Guy Who Stole an Airplane

"I'm just out for some sights..." ABC News / Hulu have debuted the official trailer for a documentary film titled #Skyking, examining the true story of the infamous folk hero known as the "Sky King". This doc just premiered at the 2026 SXSW Film Festival last month and will be out to watch streaming on Hulu coming up next week. A troubled airport worker's impulsive decision to steal and fly a commercial plane becomes a gripping aerial drama that reflects deeper issues of mental health & working-class struggles in America. The story is about Richard Russell, who stole a Horizon Air Bombardier Q400 plane at the airport in August 2018 and went for a joyride before crashing it. This doc also marks the first time many members of Russell's family have spoken publicly about his story. It includes never-before-heard air traffic control audio, as well as an interview with the now-retired ATC supervisor who managed the situation. I don't care how much the plane cost at all, really, I just think this is an interesting / tragic story nonetheless. Take a look at the trailer. // Continue Reading ›

The video has Ejiofor in it performing his funny spiel about coming to buy furniture at his store. The plot of the film involves him discovering an eerie, mysterious series of "backrooms" inside his store that go on & on seemingly forever. It's part of the "liminal space" concept that was turned into horror via the "creepypasta" trend online a few years ago. Now being made into movie. The "Backrooms Movie Updates" Twitter account discovered all this (it was playing on Pluto TV) and also that you will get a fax sent back if you contact the number on the screen.

Drunken Italian Comedy 'The Last One for the Road' Official US Trailer

"Are you ever going to grow up?" "We're too old to grow up." Music Box Films has revealed an official US trailer for an indie dramedy film titled The Last One for the Road, an Italian buddy comedy road trip film from filmmaker Francesco Sossai. Also known as Le città di pianura in Italian, this premiered at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival last year and already opened in Italian cinemas last fall. Carlobianchi & Doriano, two broke fiftysomething guys with a "never skip the last drink" philosophy, meet Giulio, a shy architecture student adrift in life. They're small time crooks but haven't pulled off a real scam in decades, still drinking their way through life. What starts as a chance encounter turns into a chaotic road trip through the Venetian plains — where bad advice, hangovers, and unexpected friendship redraw Giulio's plans for life and love. The trio wander from bar to bar around Veneto dispensing their brand of wisdom. Starring Filippo Scotti, Sergio Romano, and Pierpaolo Capovilla. Sossai's "dazzling sophomore feature is many things at once: a road movie, a casual caper, a tribute to a vanishing industrial Italy, a scruffy intergenerational odyssey, and free-flowing bender through time and space." Sounds like zany fun. Chilling with drunk ol' Italian guys. // Continue Reading ›
