Megan Fox (Jennifer’s Body) and Mickey Rourke (Sin City) were photographed while shooting scenes for Mitch Glazer’s Passion Play in Albuquerque, New Mexico yesterday. Fox, whose acting talents are routinely under fire by critics and fat, ugly women, proved her commitment to the craft by kissing the 57-year-old human drug.
Passion Play is the story of an angel (Fox) saved from performing as a circus sideshow freak by a downtrodden sax player (Rourke).
Photographers also caught Fox wearing a bathrobe in her trailer. Thankfully, they didn’t catch a glimpse of Rourke in his.
The Passion Play story sounds like it could be interesting, but I can’t say I’m crazy about Fox’s wardrobe on this production. I’m digging her Jonah Hex costume a hell of a lot more. Regardless, enjoy the following gallery:
Ashley Greene, star of The Twilight Saga, recently posed in a painted-on bikini for beverage company Sobe’s new ad campaign (click here to see the pics). The following is a BTS clip of Greene strutting her own juicy goodness on-the-set of the shoot. Enjoy:
At first glance, the clip doesn’t seem all that exciting. But, if you think about the fact that Greene is actually naked while posing with her ass in the air, things get a little hotter. I’m still not forking over cash to see the Twilight flicks though.
IFC Films has snatched up the North American rights to deranged Dutch director Tom Six’s controversial mad-doctor film The Human Centipede. Newbie actresses (of course) Ashlynn Yennie and Ashley C. Williams star as American tourists abducted by an evil German scientist hell-bent on creating a human centipede by sewing people together mouth-to-anus.
Ashlynn Yennie described her role to the foreign press as:
It was a little uncomfortable. …I think the most uncomfortable part was being down on all fours with your mouth, with your mouth…your jaw hurts mostly, because your mouth was open on a bit. But it wasn’t that bad, I’ll be honest. It wasn’t that bad to be on all fours.
It was shocking when I saw it for the first time. It’s funny, when I told my family members about the film they were like “Oh yea, OK,” and then, when they saw pictures from it, they were like “Whoa … that’s totally different than what we thought.” Normally when we told people they were going to sew people together they thought it was going to be shoulder to shoulder, but we’re like “No … ass-to-mouth … it’s great.”
The Human Centipede costars Akihiro Kitamura, Dieter Laser, and Andreas Leupold and has already won awards on the film festival circuit, including Best Picture at the 2009 Scream Fest LA Film Festival and Best Horror Film at the 2009 Fantastic Fest. Six is currently working on a sequel, which will feature a 15 person human centipede.
To see interviews with Six, Yennie, and other cast members, check out the following clip:
IFC will release The Human Centipede simultaneously in theaters (limited run) and VOD later this year. The company has handled North American distribution for acclaimed and edgy films such as Antichrist, Dead Snow, and The Last Winter.
IFC Entertainment’s president, Jonathan Sehring says:
I can’t remember when I have been as excited and had as much fun being horrified and repulsed while watching a movie. Echoing back to the early works of David Cronenberg, ‘The Human Centipede” is a landmark work in the horror genre, taking the “mad doctor” conceit and perversely twisting it into a mind-boggling roller coaster ride. Everyone at IFC is excited to introduce such a unique talent as Tom Six to American audiences and it’s a perfect film for our theatrical and VOD platforms.
I’m not sure if this is the most stupid film I have ever heard of or the most brilliant. Either way, it had me at ass-to-mouth.
The island may move, but the final season premiere date for ABC’s Emmy award-winning series “Lost” won’t! President Obama’s State of the Union address will not preempt the beloved sci-fi show on Feb. 2 as originally feared.
White House press secretary Robert Gibbs made the announcement at a recent press conference.
Many thanks to the legions of “Lost” fans who organized a quick and effective Twitter/Facebook/Email campaign to make sure the show did not get preempted. I would have joined in too, but I was busy eating burritos and re-watching seasons 1-thru-5.

The Twilight Saga’s Ashley Green is wearing nothing but body paint in a new ad campaign for beverage giant Sobe. The photo spread showcases Greene in a series of painted-on bikinis and will run in next month’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.
Greene is no stranger to nudity. The 22-year-old actress had private nude photos of herself leaked on the web last year. Her Twilight costars Christian Serratos and Kristen Stewart have also gone in the buff. Serratos appeared in PETA’s ongoing “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” campaign, while Stewart gets naked in the upcoming indie-drama Welcome to the Rileys.
Show Sobe some appreciation for throwing bucket-loads of cash to get Greene to pose in body paint. Crack open a couple of bottles of Strawberry Dragonfruit and enjoy the following gallery:
“Gossip Girl” Blake Lively has been cast as the female lead in Warner Bros. comic-based actioner Green Lantern, starring Ryan Reynolds as the intergalactic superhero.
Lively will play Carol Ferris, the Aerospace business woman who falls for pilot Hal Jordan, aka Green Lantern, and later becomes super-villain Star Sapphire. The extremely leggy lively reportedly beat out Jennifer Garner, Keri Russell, Diane Kruger, and Eva Green.
Green Lantern is set to start shooting in March and is slated for a June 17, 2011 release. Martin Campbell (No Escape) is handling directing duties

Sometimes, when I can’t find a good horror flick to watch, I like to freak myself out with some reality TV—no not “Jersey Shore” or anything like that. I’m talking about some truly gruesome and frightening stuff: animal attacks. Watching people getting eaten alive is pretty damn horrifying.
Now, aside from the spectacle of it all, I never gave much thought to what was really happening in those encounters until I discovered Animals Hate Us, a blog set up to document the hate crimes committed against humans by animals. Ranger John has got some pretty interesting (and terrifying) theories on animal behavior. Basically, he believes animals hate us and want to kill us.
Gotta say, he’s made a believer out of me with clips such as the one featuring a guy who has had his arm ripped off and eaten by a tiger:
The site is also good for a couple of laughs, especially when animals get horny with folks and/or themselves. Take a look:
So, whether you’re looking to crack up at someone’s misfortune or out to scare the shit out of yourself, check out AnimalsHateUs.com. Tell Ranger John Eddie sent ya!
Director Rick Jacobson’s (“Spartacus: Blood and Sand”) bad-girl-actioner Bitch Slap kicks off its limited theatrical run today. Inspired by the sexploitation flicks of the ’60s and ’70s, the groovy feature centers on a band of sexy hellraisers determined to score some serious dough or die trying.
Bitch Slap leads Erin Cummings, America Olivo, and Julia Voth have been working their tight little tushes off to promote the film. You can see some of their efforts here, here, and here. But, there are plenty of other hot babes cast in the film. Meet “Asian vagina” Kinki (Minae Noji):
President Barack Obama’s approval ratings will surely continue to drop if his State of the Union address is aired on Feb. 2—the same night that ABC’s “Lost” is set to premiere its sixth and final season. The White House is said to be deliberating between airing the President’s speech on Jan. 26 or Feb. 2. An official announcement is expected soon.
The State of the Union address is normally given in January, but the President may be postponing his speech to give democrats in Congress more time to work on their health care bill. ABC has not commented on whether it would move the premiere, which it has been promoting relentlessly since November.
The country’s broke. Our kids are retarded. We’re all gonna die from the swine flu. That’s pretty much where we stand as a nation. The only thing I need to know on Feb. 2 is what happened to Juliette, Sawyer, Jack, and Kate at the Swan station.
Let’s hope for the best. In the meantime, enjoy Hurley in the following Mr. Cluck’s commercial:
Depressing news from director Darren Aronofsky’s Black Swan camp. The supernatural thriller, which showcases a sex scene between stars Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis, will utilize body doubles for the actresses. Portman, who showed off her lady lumps in the Wes Anderson short film Hotel Chevalier, is blaming porn sites and horny movie reviewers for her decision to forgo nudity.
Portman tells UK Elle magazine:
I’m definitely not a prude about sex or nudity, I just don’t want do something that will end up as a screen grab on a porn site so meanwhile I’m doing halfsies – I’m like, ‘I’ll show my butt but not my boobs.
It really depressed me that half of every review on the film [Hotel Chevalier] was about the nudity. It made me think I shouldn’t have done it. My issue is that I feel it takes something away from what you’re doing when the focus is put on the wrong thing. My picture ended up on porn sites, and that’s the dilemma.
Anyone who begins a sentence with “I’m definitely not a prude” is always a prude. Well, let’s just hope Kristina Anapau picks up Portman’s nudity slack. If not, then you can scratch this flick off your movie-watching agenda and use that money to buy a month’s membership to some hot interracial porn site.
