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.
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.

Imogen Poots is how I describe the sounds my body makes after consuming too many Taco Bell burritos. It is also the name of the 21-year old British actress recently hired as the female lead in DreamWorks’ upcoming remake of the 1985 horror-comedy Fright Night.
Originally directed by Tom Holland (Child’s Play), Fright Night’s plot centers around Charley Brewster, a small town horror fan, who is convinced that his new neighbors are vampires.
The remake, directed by Craig Gillespie (Lars and the Real Girl) and penned by Marti Noxon (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”), is set in Las Vegas and stars Anton Yelchin (Terminator: Salvation) as Brewster and Colin Farrell (Ondine) as the vampire Jerry Dandridge.
Poots (28 Weeks Later) will play Brewster’s girlfriend Amy. She joins a cast that includes Christopher Mintz-Plasse (Kick Ass) as Charlie’s BFF “Evil” Ed Thompson, David Tennant (“Dr. Who”) as vampire-killer/Vegas magician Peter Vincent, and Toni Collete (The Sixth Sense) as Charley’s mom.
Fright Night goes into production this summer in New Mexico. It will arrive in theaters on Oct. 7, 2011.
