Human horror show Lady Gaga is looking to raise the dead on her current Monster Ball Tour. The 24-year-old pop star is reportedly in talks with German anatomist Gunther von Hagens about incorporating elements from his controversial Body Worlds exhibitions into her live show.

Hagens invented a technique to preserve human bodies called plastination in the late ’70s and utilizes it to pose corpses in his Body Worlds exhibits, which are hosted in museums around the world.

A source for Gaga tells The Sun:

She is fascinated by Gunther’s work and life and he has the kind of past she is drawn to. Gaga sees a kindred spirit and is hoping to meet him in New York.

They’ve spoken over email and it’s gone well. She is keen to have some ‘Body Worlds’ element in one of her shows, with Las Vegas being the obvious fit.

It would be good to top this tour — which is already out there — with something nobody has done before, using dead bodies as part of a concert.

You know why it hasn’t been done before? Because it’s fucking rude!

After years of dealing with life’s ups and downs, searching for meaning and fulfillment, making sacrifices in the name of love and truth—the last thing anyone deserves is to have Lady Gaga grind her rancid crotch against their fucking corpse.

Warner Bros. has released a character-driven featurette for director Chris Nolan’s upcoming mind-bender Inception. The clip introduces us to many of the film’s key players, including The Extractor, The Architect, The Point Man, The Forger, The Shade, and The Mark.

It’s a big bowl of trippy goodness. Look:

Inception stars Leonardo DiCaprio as a business man involved in a process that allows him access into people’s minds and dreams. Things get complicated, however, when a rival (Ken Watanabe) begins to blackmail him.

The film costars Ellen Page (Hard Candy), Joseph Gordan-Levitt (G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra), Cillian Murphy (Red Eye), Marion Cotillard (Big Fish), Tom Hardy (Mad Max: Fury Road), Lukas Haas (While She Was Out), Telulah Riley (“Dr. Who”), and Michael Cain (Dark Knight).

Director Tim Sullivan has released the “final beyond red band trailer” for his upcoming hillbilly horror show 2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams, available on DVD on July 20. The clip features more blood, more boobs, and more barnyard sex.

Take a peep (courtesy of Dread Central):

If you need a little story with your boobs, the film’s synopsis reads:

When this year’s round of unsuspecting Northerners fail to show up for their annual Guts ‘N Glory Jamboree, the residents of Pleasant Valley take their cannibalistic carnival on the road and head to Iowa, where they encounter spoiled heiresses Rome and Tina Sheraton and the cast and crew of their “Road Rascals” reality show.

Performing “The Bloodiest Show on Earth”, our Southern Maniacs prove more than ratings killers in what John Landis has called ‘one of the rare sequels that surpasses the original.’

2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams features quite a motley crew of actors, including Bill Moseley (Devil’s Rejects), Lin Shaye (Kingpin), Nivek Ogre (Repo! The Genetic Opera), Penthouse Pet Kathy Marie Johnson, sisters Courtney and Ashley Peldon, Ahmed Best (voice of Jar Jar Binks!), the god-awful Tony Todd (Candyman), and Playboy model Christa Campbell.

Robert Pattinson has got a message for all the Twi-hards that have camped out in front of L.A.’s  Nokia Theater since Sunday to see him and costars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner arrive at tonight’s premiere of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse: He’s bored.

Pattinson tells The  New York Times:

It can get a little boring. The good news is that the whole thing is done in seven months.

The 24-year-old Brit also expressed his distaste for fame:

Kristen is better about dealing with photographers than I am. I’ve learned to let it go a bit, but I’m still really bothered by it. The more you are exposed, the more people irrationally hate you.

Yes, people. It’s irrational to hate a foreigner who gets paid millions by Hollywood to pretend to be a vampire while the rest of America’s unemployed stab each other in the eye for a chance to be a sandwich artist at Subway.

Pattinson’s only other starring role to date has been in Summit Entertainment’s Remember Me which grossed a not so sparkling $19 million in the U.S.  and a total of $27 million worldwide.

Twentieth Century Fox has released an international trailer for Robert Rodriguez’s Predators. The clip showcases the film’s violence and gore and provides a glimpse at plenty of new footage, including predator wolves.

Robert Rodriguez’s Predators follows a group of harden human killers and low-lifes taken to an alien planet to be hunted by the Predators. The film stars Adrien Brody, Laurence Fishburne, Walton Goggins, Topher Grace, Alice Braga, and everyone’s favorite Mexi-can Danny Trejo.

The film arrives in theaters on July 9.

Peep it:

Slumdog Millionaire’s Freida Pinto is joining actors James Franco and John Lithgow in 20th Century Fox’s Planet of the Apes prequel Rise of the Apes.

Directed by Rupert Wyatt, Rise of the Apes follows a scientist’s (Franco) attempt to protect an ape named Caesar from the doctors using him as a test subject in Alzheimer’s research. What follows sets the stage for a simian revolution.

Pinto has been cast as a primatologist. Lithgow will play Franco’s father and Alzheimer’s patient.

The film goes into production this summer in British Columbia.

Pinto is currently wrapping director Tarsem Singh’s (The Cell) swords-and-sandals fantasy Immortals.

As most married men know, it’s not uncommon to see one’s hot wife eventually morph into the kind of chick you’d see during a pan-shot of the Dr. Oz audience. But, what if one’s hot wife actually turned into an even hotter wife?

IFC Midnight has released the first official trailer for French director Marina de Van’s new psychological thriller Don’t Look Back. The film stars Sophie Marceau (Braveheart) as a happily married mother of two who believes she’s changing into an Italian sexpot, played by Monica Bellucci (Matrix Reloaded).

Take a look:

The film’s official synopsis reads:

Jeanne a writer, married, with two children starts to see unsettling changes in her home. Her body is beginning to change. No one around her seems to notice.

Her family dismisses these fears as the result of the stress of having to finish her next book, but Jeanne realizes that something far deeper, far more disturbing is taking place.

A photograph at her mother’s house sends her in search of a woman in Italy. Here, transformed into another woman, RosaMaria, she will discover the strange secret of her true identity.

Don’t Look Back will be available On Demand on June 23.

Bellucci can also be seen this summer in Disney’s fantasy-adventure The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. Marceau hasn’t starred in an American film since the 2003 rom-com Alex & Emma.

The Syfy network, known for such outrageous fare as Dinocroc vs. Supergator and Mongolian Death Worm, has got a message for its detractors: Put up or shut up.

The network is teaming up with entertainment website IGN to launch B Movie Mogul, an interactive movie-making site designed to give users the opportunity to create a Syfy original Saturday night creature feature (to be aired next year).

Executive vp of programming Thomas Vitale explains:

We constantly have fans e-mailing with compliments, complaints and questions about our movies, and this is a way of involving the fans in a new way. This is where entertainment is going and just the start of many more things of this nature for Syfy.

Visitors to the site can pitch and vote on various aspects of the film making process, including its title, dialogue, creature design, wardrobe, death scenes, and marketing.

B Movie Mogul launches on Friday, June 25.  First order of business will be to decide on one of the following themes: Apocalypse, aliens, or monsters.

Shooting has wrapped on director Marcus Nispel’s eagerly anticipated Conan the Barbarian remake, starring former “Stargate Atlantis” and “Baywatch” actor Jason Momoa.

Lionsgate has released the first official photo of Momoa as Conan (pictured above) to promote the film and remind your girlfriend what a man without a beer belly and skidmarks in his shorts looks like.

Conan costars Stephen Lang, Ron Pearlman, Rose McGowan, Said Taghmaoui, Raw Leiba (That’s what she said!), Rachel Nichols and Rachel Nichols’ huge breasts.
