Get ready to take a walk down memory lane with the long awaited sequel, Toy Story 3. Tom Hanks and Tim Allen return as Woody and Buzz, in an all new adventure that has them escaping a daycare. If you’re more of a comic book fan than a Pixar buff, check out Josh Brolin in Jonah Hex, the DC Comics adaptation about man with a scarred face and a scarred past.
See what else is new this weekend…
The latest movie from prolific but patchy Michael Winterbottom, The Killer Inside Me, is faithfully adapted from a novel by black-hearted pulp writer Jim Thompson. It features a stand-out performance by Casey Affleck as the cold-blooded psycho of the title, but with walk-outs and angry reactions at Sundance earlier this year (listen to them here), it is already the subject of some controversy for the vicious beatings meted out to its two female stars, most notably the extended pummelling of Jessica Alba’s sweet and pretty phisog.
The creepiness that is Michael Winterbottom’s The Killer Inside Me has been released. The film that turned this year’s Sundance Film Festival on its ear (listen to the outrage) is going after general audiences so get ready. The film stars Casey Affleck, Kate Hudson, and Jessica Alba as a trio involved in sex, murder, and more murder.
Out of all the films to get trashed at this year’s Sundance Film Festival The Killer Inside Me took the cake. The audience’s reaction to it was less than stellar (listen to the outrage) and at one point a woman had to be physically removed from the theater because she was shouting her disdain at the top of her lungs.
No matter how you feel about the film it’s coming out this summer and there’s nothing you can do to stop it. If you don’t want to see it, don’t watch it but if you do here’s the trailer…
A few days ago we told you about the jaw dropping response to Michael Winterbottom‘s latest film, The Killer Inside Me. When it debuted at the Sundance Film Festival it received little fan fare and was condemned as being a misogynistic piece of crap. The director must have gotten tired of hearing all the complaints about his film because he’s released a very public statement about why he made it as violent as he did.
Last night after the premiere of Michael Winterbottom‘s film, The Killer Inside Me starring Casey Affleck, Kate Hudson and Jessica Alba, the director, producers and some of the actors walked out onto the stage and before anyone could ask a question an angry audience member decided to tell them “the film was so violent that she couldn’t believe it was accepted into Sundance.” Then she kept going on about how “it was just horrible.” The majority of the crowed booed her out of the room, while the director tried to move on. She wouldn’t be the last audience member to bring up the film’s violence, others asked “how do you expect something like this to sell?” “Do you support violence against women?” Scroll down if you want to hear the audio for yourself…
A really, really long trailer has been released for The Killer Inside Me, a drama we reported on a few months back that stars Casey Affleck, Jessica Alba, Kate Hudson, Bill Pullman, and Elias Koteas. The cast sounds random, but the film is based on the popular Jim Thompson novel of the same name. The trailer is a little over 5 minutes long and gives away a lot of info regarding the overall plot, so if you’re not familiar with the story already tread carefully.
Check out the trailer…
If your a fan of the CBS drama The Mentalist, you will be more than happy to hear this latest casting news.

According to IGN, the film will be directed by Michael Winterbottom and is currently in production in New Mexico, but will be moving to Oklahoma for the remainder of the shoot.
