Should You See 'I Melt with You'?

Should you see I Melt with You? Yes, I know it's the question with every movie that comes out, but I believe this movie is different. You should see this movie even if you think you'll hate it. Not many movies now a days (or ever) stay with you after you see the movie.

Thomas Jane vs Sylvester Stallone in 'Headshot'

The good news is that former Punisher star Thomas Jane will be making a much needed return to the big screen as a cop in the upcoming action movie Headshot, according to Joblo.  The unfortunate side to this story is that Jane will be co-starring with former Hollywood heavy weight Sylvester Stallone in the movie. 

In Headshot, Jane will play an NYPD detective who forms an unlikely alliance with a hitman (Stallone), after the two witness their respective partners get gunned down by a common enemy.  Last week, it was reported that veteran action film director Walter Hill will helm this project with a plan to rewrite the script that was previously penned by Alessandro Camon.  A script which Jane described as "fantastic".

Rob Lowe, Jeremy Piven, Thomas Jane, and Christian McKay in Four Teaser Clips from 'I Melt With You'

With the Sundance Film Festival now underway, one of my most anticipated premieres in Park City this year is Mark Pellington's Henry Poole is Here follow-up, I Melt With You. The film has an outstanding cast (Rob Lowe, Jeremy Piven, Thomas Jane, Christian McKay, Carla Gugino, and Sasha Grey), a pretty cryptic premise ("a thriller centered around four men whose lives being to intersect"), and, knowing Pellington's filmography, reaction will definitely be mixed.

Now, an unorthodox film from its start has begun an unorthodox marketing campaign leading up to the premiere.  Rather than release a teaser trailer, the filmmakers have decided to release short teaser clips showing off each main character.  And, the clips are... interesting.

Hit the jump to see what I mean and get a more detailed film synopsis from the Sundance website.

'Mutant Chronicles' Trailers Refuse to Die

In about 700 years, we will be facing an armageddon. I for one am surprised it will take that long. But at that time, mutants will have overpowered humankind, forcing the world's leaders to strongly consider evacuating Earth.

It's not a bad premise for a movie, and this is the second straight trailer for The Mutant Chronicles that makes it appear not unlikely that this could be OK. Then again, the trailer for Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle kicked ass, and look what happened there. I wish Mutant Chronicles had about another five million to spend on effects, but if life gives you lemons, you make lemon-scented Pledge. The film stars John Malkovich and Ron Perlman as two of the world's leaders, and Thomas Jane plays a guy who has to kill a hell of a lot of NecroMutants.

New 'Mutant Chronicles' Red Band Trailer

There's a brand new trailer for Mutant Chronicles over at IGN. I didn't much care for the first trailer, which was released months and months ago. It was too safe, too predictable.

The new Red Band trailer is miles beyond that one. You can see its visual style a lot more clearly (a key in sci-fi flicks), and you become familiar with the characters without needing to be beaten down by plot points. I will reveal a little bit about the plot: It's 700 years in the future, John Malkovich is still a bad ass, and Thomas Jane has to keep mutants from taking over the world. I think that about sums it up.
