First Details: Biomass

So what do we know about Biomass?

  1. It’s an independent film made in New Mexico, written and directed by Anthony Riazzi, who is best known in the film industry as digital and visual effects supervisor for X-Men: The Last Stand  and Resident Evil: Extinction, and technical director for The Matrix Revolutions.
  2. Biomass is a creature-based SF-horror feature film centered around a highly secretive government research facility that suffers a containment breach when a genetically engineered new lifeform escapes into the outside world, bringing with it a catastrophic bio-disaster.
  3. The titular creature is a largish monster (see below for a conceptual image of the creature).
  4. The film also features zombies, presumably the result some sort of contagion carried by the monster.
  5. The New Mexican cast includes Juliet Lopez, Brenden Wedner, Matt Page and Alejandro Montoya Marin. Additional cast includes Steve Cormier, Katalina Parrish, Zach Dulin, Matt Berlin and Nomar Rizo.
  6. It is co-produced by Riazzi and former Disney executive, Alicia J. Keyes, who will be producing under her banner, AJK Films.
  7. It is currently in post-production.

Here is a conceptual image of the creature (hard to see, I know, but it is certainly suggestive):

Giant Spider Goes Retro

What’s scarier than a spider in your bedroom? Answer: a giant spider in your bedroom!

Christopher R. Mihm’s new retro style flick, The Giant Spider, is bound to be a smash-hit with cinematic arachnophobes everywhere. Now, courtesy of Mihm, Undead Backbrain residents are getting the first glimpse of the titular star of the film.

Cool, eh?

Mihm — hailed as “the king of ‘new old / good bad’ movies — has an enviable history in making effective low-budget monster/sci-fi flicks that entertainingly replicate the aesthetic wonders of 1950s’ genre B-movies. He writes, directs and sometimes edits them. For example, his 2011 film, Attack of the Moon Zombies, features a killer plant and zombie mutants spawned on the Moon, and was the recipient of numerous film festival awards. House of Ghosts (which is exactly what it sounds like) is his 2012 release — a atmospheric supernatural creepfest that pays tribute to the works of the master of classic horror, William Castle. Other titles are Destination: Outer Space (2010), Terror From Beneath the Earth (2009), Cave Women on Mars (2008), It Came From Another World (2007) and The Monster of Phantom Lake (2006). Endless black-and-white goodness!

The Giant Spider is Mihm’s tribute to the ‘big bug’, nuclear-paranoia classics of the 50s, which includes giant spider epics such as Tarantula (US-1955; dir. Jack Arnold) and The Earth vs the Spider (US-1958; dir. Bert I. Gordon ) as well as tales of those other atomic bugs The Black Scorpion (US-1957; dir. Edward Ludwig), The Deadly Mantis (US-1957; dir. Nathan Duran) and the greatest of them all, the formicidaic monsters of Them! (US-1954; dir. Gordon Douglas).

Synopsis:

When radiation left behind by atomic weapons testing creates a gigantic killer mutant arachnid, it’s up to a trio of scientists, an Army general, and a newspaper reporter and his fiancée to figure out how to stop the hungry beast from devouring the entire county.

The Giant Spider is currently in production and stars Daniel R. Sjerven, Shannon McDonough (pictured below in an exclusive shot from the film), Mark Haider, Mike Cook, Jim Norgard, and Billie Jo Konze. It is scheduled to premiere in May 2013.

Gila Rises!

One of the most anticipated independent giant monster flicks of recent times has been Jim Wynorski’s remake of the B-movie classic The Giant Gila Monster (US-1959; dir. Ray Kellogg), titled simply Gila!

Here’s the new poster:

The world premiere took place at the 6th Annual B-Movie Celebration’s Film Festival held in Columbus, Indiana earlier this month and the film was met with great enthusiasm and excitement. Hopefully those of us that couldn’t make it to the Festival will get to see it soon on SyFy or DVD. In the meantime, here’s the new trailer:

New Trailer for Galactic Raiders: Descendents of Harryhausen

Undead Backbrain has been rather quiet of late, and probably will be for a while, as I wrestle with the galleys of my upcoming horror/fantasy novel Fragments of a Broken Land: Valarl Undead as well as other somewhat more uncontrollable real-life issues. But in the meantime, let me cast your minds back to a low budget, independent and then in-development film that offers up an array of homages to the great stop-motion animator, Ray Harryhausen. The film is Galactic Raiders, directed by Larry Arpin, which featured on the Backbrain all the way back in 2008 (check out the article here).

The first trailer has just been released and it’s full of monstrous animated goodness. Check it out below:

[youtube GE9crw8FISM]

Thanks to Kaiju Search-Robot Avery for picking this one up.

Avery, who has been acting as Film Wrangler for this year’s 6th Annual B-Movie Celebration’s Film Festival held in Columbus, Indiana, last weekend, reports that Galactic Raiders had its world premiere at the festival, in front of “an enthusiastic crowd”. I’m sure we’ll hear more about its future availability soon.

B-Movie Celebration: Return of the Killer Shrews

Steve Latshaw’s reimagining / sequel to 1959’s The Killer Shrews, Return of the Killer Shrews, featuring original star James Best, as well as John Schneider, Jennifer Lyons, Rick Hurst, Sean Flynn and special guest Bruce Davison, is definitely one of the most anticipated delights of this year’s 6th Annual B-Movie Celebration’s Film Festival to be held in Columbus, Indiana during September — and that’s speaking from a cornucopia of great low-budget genre films.

Now we can reveal the latest trailer, courtesy of B-Movie Celebration’s Film Wrangler, Avery Guerra:

Coming: Hellyfish

A Squishy Backbrain Exclusive

There’s no argument: Godzilla is a giant monster with backbone, metaphorically and literally — and the prominence of his spines is certainly one of his defining characteristics (as illustrated here in cover art by Art Adams for the IDW Publishing comic series).

After the Big G can there be a giant monster that’s spineless? Well, writer/director Pat Longstreth thinks so.

I remember seeing a viral internet image of a “giant jellyfish” with puny diver next to it a while back and thinking, though clearly faked, it made for an interesting giant monster moment.

It’s known as the Lion’s Main Jellyfish (or Cyanea capillata) — the largest known species of jellyfish. According to Wikipedia, the biggest specimen on record had a body measuring 7 feet 6 inches (2.29 m) in diameter and tentacles 120 feet (37 m) long. Much smaller than that shown in the picture, of course, but awesome nevertheless. At the relative size illustrated in the picture, it would be absolutely terrifying, assuming someone found a way to give such a spineless creature a suitably huge metaphorical backbone.

Longstreth may be on the threshold of achieving such a feat. Check out this classic moment:

[youtube 3aPUBa4lWh8]

Hellyfish is based on the idea that extreme gigantism can be caused by the mutagenic influence of atomic radiation over a limited number of generations, either via the fallout from A-Bomb tests, nuclear warfare, or accidental leakage (see Godzilla, Them, The Amazing Colossal Man and a plethora of 1950s-and-beyond monstrosities). Scientific nonsense in the everyday world, of course, but a principle long ago embraced by monster flicks and pulp sci-fi literature to avoid all that tedious mucking around with generational development and the laws of physics. In this instance, the film looks to an actual real-life accident — a US nuclear weapon that went missing off the coast of Georgia, after a B-47 bomber carrying a hydrogen bomb collided in midair with an F-86 fighter plane on February 5, 1958 (see this Wikipedia entry).

Synopsis:

America’s only missing nuclear weapon is leaking radioactive material into the ocean just off the coast of Tybee Island, GA. The trifling existence of a hapless cast is disrupted by a vicious force of nature that shows no mercy — a humungous jellyfish with the usual penchant for babes in bikinis [the hellyfish appears to get bigger during the course of the day — or maybe there’s more than one — Rob].

According to writer/director Longstreth, Hellyfish is a horror-comedy and its influences are many:

Our plot and characters are inspired by Jaws, Godzilla, Piranha, Super 8, War of the Worlds, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Swamp Thing, Cthulhu, and several others. However, it is very much a comedy in the mold of Ghostbusters, Gremlins, or Shawn of the Dead. It’s R-rated more for language than violence.

Above: Agnes Sofie Ingeborg Asplund as the tough guy

Trailer:

[youtube 39cyfGJVy2M]

Hellyfish isn’t, however, a feature-length film — yet. The current version is 15 minutes long, with a music video ending (similar pace to Thriller). “The idea is that this short film will help us get funding to make a feature,” Longstreth explained.

“Similar to how Neill Blomkamp made a short film for District 9 that was then made into a feature. We’ve wrapped on filming (15 days shooting total) and we’re working hard on post sound and VFX right now. The plan is to have the 15-minute horror-comedy ready for film festival submissions by October 2012. The film is meant to be a short version of what could potentially be a feature-film franchise, with a graphic novel, action figures, and lunch boxes.”

He says the film’s “a few months away from a full media blitz.” But there’s more info on Hellyfish.com, and pictures on their Facebook page, where you should head now to “Like” the project.

Another clip:

A last word from Pat Longstreth:

“I find jellyfish fascinating… They’re beautiful but dangerous.  I respect them as predators.  They’ve evolved little over time, but they’re still able to survive and inflict crippling pain on the rest of us.  It’s about time someone did a horror movie about jellyfish.” (from an article on Savannah Magazine.com)

And finally, hellyfish slime:

B-Movie Celebration: The Woodsman

Sasquatch (aka Bigfoot, close cousin to the Abominable Snowman or Yeti) may be the new Vampire. As yet he hasn’t been romanticised and made into a de-fanged love-interest (though the 1989 film Harry and the Hendersons, directed by William Dear, got close and there’s always Yeti: A Love Story to consider, if we must). But there has been of late an apparent upsurge in interest in the Sasquatch as the subject of independent horror films, so a glittery treatment might be just around the corner.

Meanwhile, as we wait in fear for that moment to arrive, The Woodsman [aka Hombre Y Tierra] is the latest genuine Sasquatch horror to raise its hairy head, a nifty-looking flick listed as a co-production between the Central America/Caribbean country of Belize and the USA. Directed by Christian Cisneros for TML (The Moving Image Company), it is yet another “found footage”/ POV-style film — a form that has gone ballistic since popularised by 1999 creepfest The Blair Witch Project, but is susceptible to bouts of over-enthusiastic jerkiness. Hopefully The Woodsman will land on the effective rather than irritating end of the scale — more The Troll Hunter or Paranormal Activity than The Zombie Diaries. At any rate from the trailer it looks as though it takes its horror heritage seriously.

[youtube wBAnEAHH5p4]

In brief, The Woodsman tells the story of Mauro Bosque (Maurice Ripke), an adventurer who disappeared into the forests of Belize while filming an episode of his popular web-series, Hombre Y Tierra. What happened in the woods during that three-day hike has remained a mystery until the recent discovery of classified footage stolen from a Belizean government office.

Synopsis:

Mauro Bosque was an adventurer, a survivalist, but most of all he was a dreamer. Driven throughout his life by the stories told to him as a child by his grandmother, Mauro spent his days exploring some of the most dangerous places in the world and sharing those adventures on his Internet based reality show, “HOMBRE Y TIERRA”.

In January of 2005 he began his greatest adventure yet, exploring the dense forests of Belize to search for a series of legendary caves which he believes were once home to a clan of historic Mayan warriors. The journey began with dissension between Mauro and his producer but quickly returns to normal. Mauro tell his producer Chucho what he wants to hear but secretly Mauro had made up his mind that he would take this journey on his own terms regardless of the consequences.

With Mauro now on his own he quickly becomes lost when the river he planned to follow becomes uncrossable. His journey to find a way across the river leads him directly into the territory of an ancient beast who does not want Mauro encroaching his boundaries. Mauro knows something is now tracking him and as the darkness closes in around him he becomes increasingly wary of who or what is out there waiting.

This is the terrifying story of a man searching for a dream, only to find his greatest nightmare. (From an official press release)

Interestingly, the film was shot with two soundtracks — one in Spanish and one in English. “My team and I set out to do two things,” Cisneros told the Backbrain.

“One, make a movie for the least amount of Money, Crew & Cast possible, and Two, make what seemed to be a foreign film. I have always wanted to make a Spanish language film. What we did do eventually is make two movies. Since my writer and I don’t speak Spanish we created the story in English first and then had it translated into Spanish by our actor Maurice Ripke. Since we had the script in both English and Spanish and our actor was bi-lingual, we decided we should naturally just shoot every take in both languages. What it gave us was two films. The Spanish version is currently doing the festival run and both versions are currently at Cannes with our International Sales Rep.”

The film has already won “Rising Star Award in Filmmaking” at the Canada International Film Festival and “Golden Palm Award” at the Mexico International Film Festival.

The English language version of The Woodsman will make its World Premiere as part of the 6th Annual B-Movie Celebration’s Film Festival to be held in Columbus, Indiana during September.

The Art of Monsters: Takashi Murakami and Jellyfish Eyes

Japanese artist Takashi Murakami has made a name for himself by successfully drawing upon popular culture as a major influence — specifically in adapting aspects of manga and anime to his own artistic vision. In the process he revolutionised the commercialisation of art, creating a wide range of products that utilise his imagery and reflect his aesthetic approach. His work is playful, child-like and brightly coloured, yet dark and serious at times, at levels below its innocent surface.

From fine art he moved into animation, and now — with the help and encouragement of experts in the field — he is planning to fulfil a long-held ambition: to re-invigorate daikaiju cinema in his own inimitable fashion. First conceived “over ten years ago as a full CG animated film” and subsequently dropped, the project has been reborn as a full-length live-action feature film. Titled Jellyfish Eyes, the film boasts the involvement of SFX make-up artist Yoshihiro Nishimura (Vampire Girl vs Frankenstein Girl, RoboGeisha, Monster Killer), who convinced Murakami that it would be possible to fulfil his dream and introduced him to screenwriter Jun Tsugita (Mutant Girls Squad), producer Mana Fukui, visual effects supervisor Tsuyoshi Kazuno (The Machine Girl, Onechanbara: The Movie, Ultraman Saga), and others, who have all been working on the project. Also acting as an FX supervisor is Kiyotaka Taguchi, who worked on Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla, The Grudge 2 and MM9.

[vimeo 34569404]

Like the original daikaiju film, Ishiro Honda’s seminal Gojira (1954; aka Godzilla), Jellyfish Eyes uses monsters as metaphors that focus on the consequences of disaster. Where Gojira was born from the trauma of the US nuclear attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Jellyfish Eyes draws upon the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami, which had its own nuclear aftermath.

Set after a devastating earthquake has struck Japan, Jellyfish Eyes “follows a young boy who … has to move with his family to an ‘experimental city’ where each child is paired with a small monster. The ‘angry feeling’ of the children then gives these creatures great power, allowing them to grow from cuddly little companions to giant, omnivorous behemoths that tower over buildings and, in one especially gorgeous scene, tromp majestically through a misty forest. Havoc ensues.” (Source: Artinfo)

Of the project, Murakami says:

In the wake of 3/11, the damage sustained by Japan runs deep. We must all do our best to emerge from that shadow. It will require connections among people… more to the point, it will require the instinctive ability to spot opportunity and inspire trust. That is how our current team came together.

While this is my feature film debut as a director, for Nishimura it is like a child. He seduced me and now we’re giving birth together.

I am someone who often has trouble communicating with people. It is for that reason that I became an artist, the overwhelming urge to share my heart with those around me through my work. I feel that it is the same for all people who create for a living. We imbue our soul in our works, exhaust ourselves day and night, and it is only then that we obtain even a fraction of the social interaction that most people achieve. In the end, however, this is our only way to communicate with society.

Though no images from the film have been released as yet, rumour has it that the live-action film features monsters that closely replicate in a “realistic” manner the style of Murakami’s other artistic creations. That alone should make it a wonder to behold!

Despite being listed as “completed” on IMDb, inside sources tell us that the film is currently in post-production and the focus of the main FX is yet to be decided. So whether it ends up full CGI, old-school man-in-suit hands-on style or a bit of both has yet to be seen.

However, of note is the fact that an early demo teaser trailer appears to have been made for Jellyfish Eyes, as evidenced by the brief glimpse of a bulletin board outside a video room that was part of Murakami’s spectacular art exhibit, Ego, held in the Al-Riwaq Exhibition Hall, located on the grounds of the Museum of Islamic Art on Doha’s Corniche in Quatar from February 9 to June 24, 2012:

The above is a screenshot from the following video about the exhibition:

B-Movie Celebration: Ukraine Goes to the Dogs

A Backbrain B-Movie Celebration Exclusive

Lycanthropy isn’t just a Hollywood phenomenon. Countries throughout Europe and indeed the world have their own versions of the werewolf (or were-whatever), and they range in nature from the demonic medieval sorcerer who adopts a lupine shape to pursue his evil designs, to the poor sod who gets bitten and now becomes a ravenous beast whenever the moon’s full. In the shape-changing stakes, European populations (and those descended from European emigrants) do rather veer toward the wolf as shape-of-choice, wolves being long-term inhabitants of the continent — and it seems that the Ukraine is no exception.

“Dog-heads”, as the Ukrainians call them, feature in a new horror film from the Ukraine: Synevir, directed by Alexandr and Vyacheslav Aleshechkin, which has recently completed and will be released in 3D in its native Ukraine. The 2D version will, however, premiere as part of the 6th Annual B-Movie Celebration’s Film Festival to be held in Columbus, Indiana during September (with English subtitles).

The title refers to Synevir Lake, which is in the legend-haunted Carpathian Mountains (of Dracula fame). The lake was added to the list of Ukraine’s seven natural wonders in 2008. Myths and legends are attached to it and to the area surrounding it, some of which involve reports of cryptozoological sightings and mysterious incidents. Proported to be a re-enactment of an incident that happened “some time ago”, Synevir takes advantage of this mystical ambiance to create a sense of historical depth.

Check out the 2D newly subtitled trailer:

[youtube nF3r05yKAjI]

Synopsis:

The biggest lake in the Carpathian Mountains — Lake Synevir — is known for its rich history throughout hundreds of years as a place of mystical unexplained events. A group of students decide to spend a weekend at the lake. They do not believe in those stories about Lake Synevir and the strange creatures around it. Too bad for them….

Interestingly St Christopher , third century martyr and patron saint of travellers, is sometimes called Cynephoros in Greek (dog-faced) or more commonly Cynocephalos (dog-headed), and is described in the Old English text Passion of St Christopher as having “the head of a hound, and his locks were extremely long, and his eyes shone as bright as the morning star, and his teeth were as sharp as a boar’s tusks”. The story goes:

Now this Christopher was one of the Dogheads, a race that had the heads of dogs and ate human flesh. He meditated much on God, but at that time he could speak only the language of the Dogheads. When he saw how much the Christians suffered he was indignant and left the city. He began to adore God and prayed. “Almighty God,” he said, “give me the gift of speech, open my mouth, and make plain thy might that those who persecute thy people may be converted”. An angel of God came to him and said: “God has heard your prayer.” The angel raised Christopher from the ground, and struck and blew upon his mouth, and the grace of eloquence was given him as he had desired. (Source)

St Christopher was often depicted as being literally dog-headed, as in this ikon from the Byzantine Museum of Athens:

I have no idea if this tale of St Christopher Cynocephalus and his “dog-headed” people relates to the Dogheads of Ukrainian legend and hence to Synevir, but to find out you should head off to the 6th Annual B-Movie Celebration, where the 2D version of Synevir will be screening — or if you live too far away from Columbus, Indiana, wait for the DVD.

Note that the film is in 3D and to prove it here is the 3D poster and trailer (you’ll need to supply your own 3D glasses to watch the latter):

Of Giant Crabs and Lovecraft

Exclusive Details

In the world of contemporary low-budget genre-film production, auteur Brett Piper is god! [Okay, maybe a demi-god…]  His deific stature is not simply a consequence of the volume of films he churns out but also the sheer, unbridled ambition of them. Working with budgets comparable to what your average Hollywood producer spends on coffee each morning, Piper fills the screen with endless and oft exceedingly bizarre monsters, otherworldly vistas, inter-dimensional spectacle and apocalyptic devastation. Most  of this is old school: matte super-imposition, model work, make-up FX and stop-motion animation. All the good stuff!

A prime example is his latest project — The Dark Sleep (US-2012) — which has just been completed and will be released soon. Written and directed by Piper and produced by close colleague Mark Polonia, this Lovecraftian monster epic (freely based on the New England horror master H.P. Lovecraft’s “The Dreams in the Witch House”), is a classic example of Piper’s low-budget nous. Check out the just-released trailer — Cthulhan monstrosities, animated skeletal freaks and all:

[youtube MgNofpSpq9s]

The Dark Sleep stars Taylor Nicole Adams, Steve Diasparra, Ashley Galloway and Polonia regular Ken VanSant, not to mention the following wonderfully surreal Creepy Castle model, pictured below both with added FX and being shot in “the studio”:

The latest exciting news from Piper, however, is that he and producer Polonia are about to go into production of a giant monster flick called Queen Crab. The title is tentative at present but below is the titular star:

According to Piper, it’s a film “about a weird young woman and her giant crab”. When prodded about the type of SFX to be used, he added:

Stop motion crab (plus giant crab claw, which I’m finishing up now). There’s a slightly Toho-esque sequence at the end where the crab’s lake is being shelled and bombed and that will be done in miniature.

Though much about the film is in flux at present, Piper and Polonia are hoping to start on the principle photography a week from today. His cast includes (pictured below in order) “scream queens” Michelle Miller and Kathryn Metz, and “screen hunks” Richard Louello and A.J. DeLucia. In the cast is also “the usual gang of Polonia-land characters: Ken Van Sant, Steve Diasparra, Danielle Donahue, etc.”

Piper remarked in conclusion: “It’s going to be a real retro fun-fest (as people would expect from me).”

Excellent!
