MARTIN
starstarstarstar
Considered by many to be Night of the Living Dead director George Romero's greatest work, this grim horror tale is a shocking, thoughtful reworking of the vampire myth set in a dying American steel town. John Amplas stars as a Martin is a shy, alienated 17-year-old who thinks he may be a vampire — a fact supported by his murderous craving for human blood. Read the complete review for Martin

  • Cigarettes and Werewolves Go Missing, and More | Movie News | 7/26/2007
    Question I saw and liked Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow but was wondering What was the source of Sir Laurence Oliviers performance Ive always wanted to know JayFlickChick The late Sir Laurence Oliviers performance as Professor Totenkopf dead head in German in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow 2004 was digitally built from archival BBC footage of Olivier giving a speech at some fund-raising event The movements of his mouth were manipulated to match the films dialogue and the footage was processed to look like a staticky video holograph The same basic technology was used to alter existing footage of Marlon Brando from Superman 1978 so he could speak new dialogue for Superman Returns 2006 But in Superman Returns the Brando footage looks as real as the rest so its another step toward being truly able to have a living actor appear alongside a dead one the way singers can now do thoroughly convincing duets by integrating their new tracks read more be the first to leave a comment

Instead, Garris himself wrote a pretty straightforward "teens explore crypts, get bit, get undead, get hungry, get gone" type of story.
