This coming Tuesday, February 7th will see the premiere of ABC's "The River", a new series from Paranormal Activity creator Oren Peli. "The River"'s 8-episode Season 1 is teased with the following new on air promo that shows the audience's reaction to the horror series.The audience reaction trailers are a bit played out IMO. "Famed explorer Dr. Emmet Cole (Greenwood) went looking for magic deep in the uncharted Amazon and never returned. The shocking truth about his disappearance is out there, somewhere, just waiting to be discovered. To the millions of kids who grew up watching his nature show, Dr. Cole was a hero. To his own son, Lincoln (Anderson), he was more of an enigma. Now, six months after he vanished, Lincoln is finally ready to bury the past when Dr. Cole's emergency beacon suddenly goes off. At the urging of his mother, Tess (Hope), Lincoln reluctantly joins her on a search for his father. To fund the rescue, they agree to let Dr. Cole's cagey ex-producer, Clark (Paul Blackthorne), film the mission documentary-style. The mixed crew of old friends and new acquaintances includes the sexy and resourceful Lena (Eloise Mumford), loyal mechanic Emilio (Daniel Zacapa), and lethal bodyguard Captain Kurt Brynildson (Kretschmann)."

Original Review From Fantastic Fest 11

Despite being shown in theatres, its hard to actually classify The Human Centipede 2: Full Sequence as a film. Like Faces of Death, its a collection of increasingly gross ideas strung together, specifically designed to push buttons and offend with the added bonus of having something that barely passes as a narrative woven between them. When viewed in that light, its admirable how committed director Tom Six is to his vision and how uncompromised it feels, but as he explained during a post-screening Q&A, its basically a bunch of leftover ideas that he couldnt fit in the first time around. The explanation makes sense, but it certainly doesnt setup the context for why these events are occurring or what Six is attempting to comment on with his grotesque display of medical inaccuracies.

Vin Diesel is going image crazy posting another dirtied up look at Riddick in the R-rated David Twohy-directed sequel to Pitch Black. This one goes heavy on the Apocalypse Now imagery. It was revealed yesterday that Riddick also sees the return of Karl Urban (Star Trek) as Vaako and introduces to the series previously announced cast member Jordi Molla as Santana, the arrogant captain of the mercenary ship; Matt Nable (Killer Elite) as Boss Johns, a man looking for answers; Katee Sackhoff (TV's Battlestar Galactica) as the Nordic mercenary Dahl; and Bokeem Woodbine (Total Recall) as bounty hunter Moss. Rounding out the cast are Dave Bautista (The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption), Conrad Pla (Immortals), Raoul Trujillo (Apocalypto), Nolan Funk (Aliens in America) and two-time Grammy Award-nominated singer Keri Hilson.

Already featured in magazines, below you'll now find a clean look at Noomi Rapace and Logan Marshall-Green in Twentieth Century Fox's Prometheus. The duo apparently have oxygen and are standing in front of some alien writing. I believe it says, "This is not a prequel to Alien, but actually, it is." Just a wild guess. On June 8 Ridley Scott returns to the genre he helped define. With Prometheus, he creates a groundbreaking mythology, in which a team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race. It'll be presented in real 3-D.

Each of the three grindhouse movies will star Michael Biehn and will be shot in sequence in a 45 day period, with three different directors to be announced. Executive producing along with Blanc/Biehn Productions will be a director that Michael Biehn has worked with before and has great relationship with.

If she wins, the Lambrick Foundation will find a donor for her brother and pay for the rest of his treatment. Iris accepts the invitation. When she arrives, she meets her fellow opponents all desperate individuals with their own tragic stories, each hoping to find salvation through Shepard Lambrick¹s game of Would You Rather. (His own twist on the popular children¹s game.) However, Shepard Lambrick¹s version of Would You Rather is definitely not for children.

Anyone who tries to leave and not continue the game will be shot on the spot. As the rounds progress, the contestants are pushed to their extremes and soon players begin to be eliminated forever."

The Buried director's psychological thriller stars Sigourney Weaver, Robert De Niro, Cillian Murphy and Elizabeth Olsen.

Now in theaters everywhere is CBS Films' The Woman in Black, the latest Hammer production that stars Harry Potter's Daniel Radcliffe. Mr. Disgusting isn't a huge fan of the film, "What's most troubling is 'Eden Lake' director James Watkins' inability to craft a "real" scare...there are two should-be terrifying moments that fall completely flat on its face." Full review here. Other people seem to like this film, even though I agree that it's a flat "horror for beginners" tale with way too many ineffectual jump scares. CBS Films released a new clip today, and if you want an idea of what the second act of this film is all about - just imagine this scene playing over and over again for about 45 minutes. If that sounds like your thing, then by all means go see it. Hit the jump to check out the clip. And if you've seen the movie then write your own review to tell all of Bloody what YOU thought!

Earlier this month it was announced that "The Walking Dead" was renewed for a third season and bumped up to 16 episodes. That's up from 6 episodes in Season 1 and 13 in Season 2. Just recently Tom Savini (who is lobbying for the part) said that John Hawkes was the producers' choice to play Philip Blake, aka "The Governor", in next year's season. Apparently that's not the case. An update from Lilja's Library drops a bomb on that rumor along with some additional Season 3 tidbits. "The small town of Senoia in Coweta County is about to become zombie central for the filming of a hit cable show The Walking Dead. The show is scheduled to shoot in the town in May and construction of zombie sets will begin next week, which will involve 60 local carpenters. Scott Tigchelaar of Raleigh Studios Atlanta says people can expect to see the town a little dirtier than normal to fit the look of the show... It was earlier rumored that John Hawkes would play Philip Blake, the psychotic zombie-killer who declares himself the Governor of Woodbury. Now, it looks like that won't happen. Hawkes' publicist states quite plainly that "John is NOT appearing on The Walking Dead." " Don't forget that the still ongoing Season 2 returns February 12th on AMC.

Katherine Heigl is going full circle.
