stars :) Over at "Beyond Hollywood" I came upon a charming little film with an even more charming title - TWO HEADED SHARK ATTACK. The latest rumors say that two vixens, Brooke Hogan and Carmen Electra will appear in this rather crazy film about a "Semester at Sea" ship which is attacked and sunk by a mutated two-headed shark, and the survivors seek refuge on a deserted atoll. The coeds, however, are no longer safe when the atoll starts flooding. The film should hit DVD market next year in case you're interested.
SHORT HOLLYWOOD HEADLINES
Yep, the trend of big stars taking roles in B-league crime films continues: according to "Variety" Anthony Hopkins has signed
on to star in SOLACE, a crime thriller which will revolve around a former doctor who possesses psychic abilities, which he uses to help the FBI track down a serial killer. As "Deadline" reports, Fox, Dreamworks and Disney will all work together in financing Steven Spielberg's next huge, and extremely expensive, project, the movie adaptation of sf novel ROBOPOCALYPSE. As I reported before, the freshly released novel by Daniel H. Wilson is a sf epic which explores the fate of the human race after the world was hit by a robot uprising.

The only trailer I have to offer you today, in this rather slow week when it comes to movie news, is the one for A BIRD OF THE AIR,
a charming film which hits cinemas this month and stars two gorgeous people Rachel Nichols (from CONAN and GI JOE, but they did some criminal things to her hair in this one) and Jackson Hurst. The story follows a solitary man who becomes obsessed with finding the owner of a green parrot who one day flew into his trailer. He is then joined by a girl who decides to help with his parrot search, whether he wants her to or not. The two of them set out on a quest to find the bird's previous owners and she begins to unravel the mysteries of his past and his present which is more intense than the romantic version she had envisioned.
I actually really like that bird movie. It's got a mystery involved in it. Super!
ReplyDeleteTWO HEADED SHARK ATTACK sounds so bad that it could be amusing... ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, so many movies to look forward to: SOLACE, ROBOPOCALYPSE... and A BIRD OF THE AIR looks delightful.
Stephen is really obsessed with robot and alien!! But the book sounds good, will see if I can find and read it
ReplyDeleteLike the trailer for the parrot movie. But I hope the shark gets those other two in its jaws. hehe.
ReplyDeleteNothing says "quality" like "Two Headed Shark Attack"....
ReplyDeletethat robopocalypse cover impresses me every time i see it!
ReplyDeletespeaking of robots...
i've started to wonder whether carmen electra may be a robot... i mean, seriously, does that woman age at all?!?!?!
ugh. her and brooke have now convinced me to go back on my diet. :( :P
A Bird of the Air looks so sweet and cool. I love parrots. My friend has an African Gray that is the most hilarious bird. He likes sitting in the kitchen window and barking like a dog.
ReplyDeleteCarmen Electra? How old is she...
ReplyDeleteI like Jackson, nice to see him doing a movie! I love birds. I taught my Mom's bird to talk; so fun~ Damn the sharks are over here; Carmen must be doing VLC, very low carb. Solace sounds good; I love psychic type flicks!
ReplyDeleteI honestly will watch anything with Hopkins in it.
ReplyDeleteAnd robots. I love them both.
I like the sound of Robopocalypse, but I'm not sure that Spielberg will be able to make it as dark as it needs to be. Epic, certainly. But dark? I dunno.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry Dezzy, I didn't actually read much today, was far too distracted by the first image!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for making me smile
You had me at Brooke Hogan and Carmen Electra my friend.
ReplyDeleteI'd only watch that first one if Carmen and Brooke wear what they have on in that picture.
ReplyDeleteLooks like I need to find a copy of ROBOPOCALYPSE to read.
I totally agree with Lynda about 2 headed shark attack. A 2 headed shark? I'm going to have nightmares even if it's laughable lol
ReplyDeleteSOLACE is one I'll probably go see. I love me some crime thrillers. But, I'm tempted to watch TWO HEADED SHARK ATTACK, just cause I love the stupid title so much.
ReplyDeleteThink Bird will make a god Sunday afternoon DVD flick -- the others not so much.
ReplyDeleteI can't make up my mind about the Scots. A sad state of affair.
@Clarissa
ReplyDeletebirds and animals on film are always cute, aren't they? :)
@Lyndy
yep, so bad that it actually could be good :)))
@Luanne
someone's a bit jealous? :PPPP Actually I fully expect for those two to be eaten by sharks in the film, I mean everybody will go to see that film for that reason only :)
@Novia
with aliens, robots and Holocaust
@Drew
ReplyDeleteyep, that's pure Hollywood quality :) I expect to see that film reviewed over at your place :)
@Vics
those pics made me go on a diet myself even though my life is a diet :)) Carmen does look like a robot. It's crazy how some people have been born with flawless bodies :(
@Melsy
he he a barking parrot? Now, that could come useful in certain situations :)
@Kenneth
I reckon she is in her prime :)
@Ella
ReplyDeleteI've always thought that low carb would help me too, since carbs are the only caloric things I eat. If I would stop eating bread and pastries I would probably lose 30 pounds or more :)
@DWei
glad to hear that :)
@Jamie
yep, Spielberg's films have become extremely sugary to the point of being pathetic in last ten years or more. I for example couldn't watch A.I. till the end because of that.
@Lurk and Scottie
that's OK guys, today's post was meant to be looked at and not read :)
@Josh
ReplyDeleteI couldn't really imagine that film with them wearing something else :)
@Kelley
yep, it's so bad that it could actually be good :)
@Doralynn
I'm sure it will be the most charming of films :)
@MAry
yep, it's a Sunday film!
2 Headed Shark Attack??? I've got to see that!
ReplyDeleterobopocalypse? lol
ReplyDelete@Ricky
ReplyDeleteyou really got to ;)
@Reilly
:)
Two Headed Shark Attack???? I had to double check to make sure I hadn't brought up an April Fools Day post.

Tossing It Out

ReplyDelete2-Headed Shark Attack??? Well, it's different, anyway - points for creativity. :)
ReplyDeleteit sure is creative :)
