In addition to Bambi: The Reckoning, which is part of the Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey universe, another upcoming Bambi horror movie has been announced this week.
A gory horror-comedy that pays tribute to the slasher movies of the ’80s and ’90s, Bambi horror movie Bampire was just launched on Indiegogo, and we’ve got your first look.
Directed by Taylor Morden (The Last Blockbuster) and written by Zoë Wassman, the indie film is said to feature “heart-wrenching live action performances, hand-drawn animation by Josh Stifter (A24 and Kevin Smith’s Tusk), practical gore by award-winning fx artist Trysta Kelley, a claymation sequence from effects supervisor Webster Colcord, and even diegetic VHS footage from an in-world camera.”
Writer Zoë Wassman teases, “Picture Evil Dead 2 meets Who Framed Roger Rabbit.”
Bampire (produced by Path Films and Popmotion Pictures) features appearances by Diane Franklin, Greg Sestero, and Troma’s own Lloyd Kaufman...

On Friday nights, IndieWire After Dark takes a feature-length beat to honor fringe cinema in the streaming age.
First, the spoiler-free pitch for one editor’s midnight movie pick — something weird and wonderful from any age of film that deserves our memorializing.

There may be no greater false equivalence in American culture than that of fraternities and sororities.
For most men, the undergrad Greek system is a four-year “Wolf of Wall Street” homage featuring sticky floors, over-priced ambulance rides, and the occasional Title IX investigation. For most women, it’s a cultish reinforcement of sexist ideals requiring expensive uniforms, ritualistic dance, and performative crying over handmade crafts.

In what is possibly one of the most elaborate anti-jokes in recent memory, a remake of Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" starring Bob Odenkirk will take the entire thing dead seriously. The volunteer organization Acting for a Cause has produced and staged the charity project for amFAR, the Foundation for AIDS Research, with company creator Brando Crawford acting as director. Those who worked on the project have promised to not treat Wiseau's shining beacon of unintentional hilarity for laughs, including longtime comedian Bob Odenkirk, who tweeted out how excited he was about participating in this momentous occasion.
Created during the 2020 pandemic lockdown, Acting for a Cause usually stages script readings of plays and films over laptop video conference meetings. However, "The Room" will be more elaborate than the average table read, incorporating green screens to replicate scenes in the original film. The lack of location changes allowed the entire production...

The moment we’ve all been waiting for has arrived. Tommy Wiseau has directed his first feature film since The Room, and the trailer for the project — dubbed Big Shark — is out now.
Per Variety, Big Shark follows New Orleans firefighters Georgie, Patrick, and Tim as they attempt to save their city from the titular fishy menace. In addition to writing and directing the film, Wiseau stars alongside Isaiah Laborde and Mark Valeriano. Wonderfully, the trailer for the picture looks like it was made in iMovie, with ridiculous red text assaulting the screen over dramatic action music before its stars are seen running through the streets of Nola, where the shark inexplicably manages to chase them.
Wiseau has big plans for Big Shark. The film will debut at a Portland screening on April 2nd before hitting other markets hosted by Prytania Theatres, with the filmmaker slated to appear at each event.

Shark movies are a dime a dozen, especially with schlock like Jersey Shore: Shark Attack, Sand Sharks, Ghost Shark, and so much more. But what happens when Tommy Wiseau, the visionary director of The Room, takes aim at the ocean’s most fearsome predator? Tommy Wiseau has released a new trailer for Big Shark, which is somehow the first movie he’s directed since the release of The Room twenty years ago.
The Big Shark trailer cuts back and forth between shots of New Orleans with two boxers fighting in a gym, all while the text reads, “You can Run. You can Hide. But that won’t save you. The world’s most vicious hunter has come to the bayou and only wants one thing… blood.” The film stars Tommy Wiseau as Patrick, Isaiah Laborde as Tim, and Greg Sestero as Georgie, three firefighters who must save New Orleans from a killer shark.

"You can run... You can hide... But that won't save you." Tommy Wiseau, famed director of The Room, is back!! I guess...? Maybe? A new trailer has debuted for his next feature film titled Big Shark. The second trailer for a shark movie out this week after The Black Demon, too. It's also Wiseau's only feature since The Room in 2003. The trailer launched on Variety along with a poster and info about a roadshow tour Wiseau is going on, playing the film in different cinemas around the country throughout 2023. So it will indeed be the return of Mr. Wiseau. The only simple synopsis available is: Three firefighters must save New Orleans from a shark attack. Because of course they do. It's no surprise to say that this looks like a parody film. Also a warning - the trailer ends halfway and suddenly turns into an ad for Wiesau's underwear brand - yes,...

There are few appreciators of ill-advised cinema that haven't seen "The Room," director Tommy Wiseau's so-bad-it's-legendary 2003 film that has become a true cult classic almost despite itself. It even inspired a much-acclaimed biopic in the form of A24's "The Disaster Artist," a film we called "a hilarious and sincere tribute to one of the worst films ever made." Now, a full two decades later, Wiseau is back in the director's chair for another presumably schlocky adventure. And this time, he's taking on the creature feature with a big, cheesy CGI shark flick appropriately titled "Big Shark." In even better news, we've got a trailer!
A teaser for the film first appeared online back in 2019, but now a new trailer has surfaced as the film readies for a select theatrical rollout beginning next month. According to Variety, these "Pre Premier" screenings will feature Wiseau in person and will be...

Tommy Wiseau can’t jump the shark: He is the shark.
The “Room” writer-director-star (auteur?) is officially back with his first feature film in 20 years. “Big Shark,” following the craze of the B-movie “Sharknado” franchise and spinoffs, follows three firefighters as they work to save New Orleans from one massive shark.
The tagline reads: “Can New Orleans survive?”
The trailer has been playing for audiences at theatrical screenings of “The Room” for the last few months, but the official trailer is now online. “Big Shark” will begin a nationwide rollout April 2 with a debut screening at Cinema 21 in Portland, Oregon, followed by New Orleans (April 28 and 29), San Francisco (May 5 and 6), Los Angeles (June 2 and 3), and at the Village East by Angelika in New York City.
Wiseau is set to appear in person for branded “Pre Premier” screenings, with the “Official Final Cut Version” of “Big Shark” being released only after an eight-month theatrical rollout window.

Tommy Wiseau is back behind the camera again. The director and star of “The Room” has debuted the trailer for “Big Shark,” his first follow-up feature to his trademark 2003 cult melodrama.
“Big Shark” follows three firefighters, Georgie, Patrick and Tim, as they work to save New Orleans from an attack by — you guessed it — a very big shark.
While this first look at “Big Shark” is only now being debuted online, the trailer has already been playing for audiences at theatrical screenings of “The Room” over recent months.
“Big Shark” will kick off its rollout on April 2 with a debut screening at Cinema 21 in Portland, Ore. Screenings will follow over the coming months, with a tentative schedule of engagements hosted by Prytania Theatres at Canal Place in New Orleans (April 28 and 29), the Balboa Theatre in San Francisco, Calif.

Bob Odenkirk is not making fun of Tommy Wiseau. Yes, he’s doing a reading of the enigmatic filmmaker’s 2003 bad-movie staple The Room, in which he plays main character Johnny, through which Wiseau vented all of his frustrations with the world. But he has no intention of mocking the movie or its writer/director/star/hype-man Wiseau. “We didn’t make fun of it,” he promised Den of Geek while promoting his new series Lucky Hank at SXSW. “Because that’s already been done.”
More than a reluctance to cover well-trod ground, Odenkirk’s refusal to mock The Room comes from a place of love and respect. “I love that movie. I love everything about it. I love the phenomenon of it,” he enthused. So when asked to do a reading of the movie to support AIDS research foundation amfAR, Odenkirk didn’t have to think twice. “I said...

Bob Odenkirk’s dream is for cult hit “The Room” to be considered, in the immortal words of Harry Styles, a real film movie.
The “Better Call Saul” alum is set to take on the role of Johnny, as originated by writer-director Tommy Wiseau, for a remake of the 2003 film. The remake will benefit amfAR, the Foundation for AIDS Research, with Mike Flanagan, Kate Siegel, Justin Decloux, Brando Crawford, Cameron Kasky, Arturo Castro, and Bella Heathcote rounding out the cast.
“The Room” follows San Francisco resident Johnny as he grapples with his fiancée cheating on him with his best friend. A first look at the philanthropic remake showed original cast member Greg Sestero on set.
Yet the outrageous script cemented the would-be Shakespearean tragedy “The Room” into cult B-movie status — something that Odenkirk singlehandedly wants to undo.

Bob Odenkirk is entering “The Room,” and hopefully it doesn’t tear him apart, Lisa. Deadline reports that the “Better Call Saul” actor will star in a for-charity remake of Tommy Wiseau’s notorious cult classic, which is famous for being one of — if not the — worst movie ever made.
The project comes from Acting for a Cause, a volunteer organization that stages digital readings of classic plays and movies for charity. “The Room” will benefit HIV/AIDS research organization amfAR.
Produced, directed, and hosted by Acting for a Cause’s Brando Crawford, “The Room” remake will feature Odenkirk and others acting out Wiseau’s script in front of green screens of the actual movie’s locations. Odenkirk will play Johnny, unforgettably played by producer-director-writer Wiseau in the inept original. Crawford will play Mark, Johnny’s best friend who betrays him by having an affair with his fiancée, Lisa. Mark...

Oh, hi Bob.
Better Call Saul‘s Bob Odenkirk will star in a video re-creation of The Room, one of cinema’s strangest films – some say the worst, others know the naysayers just don’t get it.
Performed against a green screen that displays locations used in the original movie, The Room remake is the latest endeavor from Acting For a Cause, an all-volunteer organization that produces and stages Zoom-style table readings of classic plays and movies for charity. Produced, directed and hosted by the organization’s Brando Crawford, The Room will benefit amfAR.
“This is real,” Odenkirk tweeted last night. “This is true. And let me tell you, I tried my best to Sell every line, as honestly as I could…and I had a Blast.’
Typically, the Acting For A Cause productions are announced just days before they appear on the group’s website, with pre-show information dripped out on its Instagram page.

Better call “The Room” fans because Bob Odenkirk is set to take over Tommy Wiseau’s role for a remake.
The “Better Call Saul” star confirmed that a reimagining of Wiseau’s 2003 movie “The Room” will benefit amfAR, the Foundation for AIDS Research, in honor of the film’s 20th anniversary. Odenkirk will play Johnny, the role writer-director Wiseau infamously played in the cult classic.

It’s time for a new episode of the Awfully Good Horror Movies video series, and in this one we’re looking back at we’re looking back at a 1999 entry in Full Moon’s long-running Puppet Master franchise, Retro Puppet Master (watch it Here)! To find out why we think watching Retro Puppet Master provides an awfully good time, check out the video embedded above.
Retro Puppet Master was the seventh Puppet Master movie to be released, following Puppet Master, Puppet Master II, Puppet Master III: Toulon’s Revenge, Puppet Master 4, Puppet Master 5: The Final Chapter, and Curse of the Puppet Master, but it’s a prequel that’s set decades before any of the other films. This one was directed by David DeCoteau from a script by Benjamin Carr and tells the following story: Andre Toulon is living a peaceful life as a puppeteer in pre-World War...

I’ll always primarily think of Greg Sestero as the young Andre Toulon from Full Moon‘s 1999 release Retro Puppet Master, but for many movie fans he is best known for playing the role of Mark in director Tommy Wiseau’s “disasterpiece” The Room. After the experience of working on The Room, Sestero wrote a book about the making of the film that was called The Disaster Artist: My Life Inside The Room, the Greatest Bad Movie Ever Made, which served as the basis for the movie The Disaster Artist. Now Sestero has made his feature directorial debut with the horror film Miracle Valley, and Deadline reports that the film is going to be released through the Tubi streaming service on September 16th. With that date just three days away, check out the trailer for Miracle Valley in the embed above to see whether or not this looks like something...

Stars: Jesse Janzen, Ariel Ryan, Randy Nundlall Jr., Leah Finity, Greg Sestero | Written and Directed by Robert Livings, Randy Nundlall Jr.
Infrared begins with footage, shot for the never aired show of the same name, of Wes performing a rather dull-looking exorcism. Then, in footage we’re told came from one of two cameras found in a school prior to its demolition we see Jane exploring the Lincoln School in Sacramento and discovering she’s not alone.
Footage from the second camera shows Randy (Randy Nundlall Jr.) interviewing a medium Izzy who happens to be Wes’s estranged sister. Infrared actually goes on like this for a while, as next Randy and Wes prepare to perform a spiritual cleansing on an apartment. After that ends up not happening they drive past the Lincoln School and the film finally, at the twenty-five-minute mark, starts getting down to what we came to see.

Photo: ‘The Room’ ‘The Room’ - Tense Drama Turned Into Comedy Gold Watching ‘The Room’ for the first time is an unforgettable experience. As the opening credits play with establishing shots of San Francisco, the name Tommy Wiseau repeatedly pops on-screen as the director, writer, executive producer, producer, and most importantly, the star. A big sign that this isn’t going to be a normal watch. Tommy plays Johnny, a businessman who finds out his fiance, Lisa (Juliette Danielle), is having a love affair with his best friend Marc (Greg Sestero). A straightforward story that is filled with plotholes and supporting characters that come and go. The written word can’t fully explain how the film unfolds and just how hysterical the script’s directorial nightmare is. The acting on the other hand matches up to the rest of the film, Tommy’s famous line “Oh hi, Mark” having to...

Greg Sestero has, he freely admits, “pulled a Wiseau.”
The actor — best known for playing Mark in The Room, the cult so-bad-it’s-good 2003 film widely labeled as the worst movie of all time — and co-author of The Disaster Artist, which chronicled The Room‘s shambolic making-of story and was adapted into A24’s 2017 comedy drama, has seemingly followed the same path of its director and Sestero’s long-time, long-haired collaborator, Tommy Wiseau.

"Let's blast this thing!!" Our friends at Bloody Disgusting have revealed a gory teaser trailer for an extreme gross-out horror comedy called Cyst, which premiered at both FrightFest and Fantastic Fest this year. This is one of these super disgusting, gory-as-f&!k, body horror creations that may make you puke. In the 1960s, a nurse's last day is ruined when a crazy doctor inadvertently creates a cyst monster that terrorizes the office. Everybody scream! The cyst is loose! The cult horror stars Greg Sestero, Eva Habermann, Jason Douglas, Gene Jones, George Hardy, Darren Ewing, Francesca Santoro, Keturah Branch, and Kyle Roberts as the Cyst Monster. Hell yes - man in suit! My goodness this looks so revolting. But it might be ridiculous fun? Or not? Only one way to find out ha! Dive right in. But please make sure you wear a mask. Here's the first teaser trailer (+ poster) for Tyler Russell's Cyst,...

Cyst is a gooey horror film from director Tyler Russell (Texas Cotton). This title had its World Premiere at Fantastic Fest this past September. Now, the film will be searching for a wider release, with help from Raven Banner Entertainment. In the story, a laser beam creates a monster in a doctor's office. With no way to destroy this thing, this monster goes on a rampage, destroying everything and everyone. Very much a blend of horror and sci-fi, this feature stars: Greg Sestero, (The Disaster Artist) Jason Douglas ("The Walking Dead"), Evan Habermann and Gene Jones. A preview of the film's impending launch is hosted here. Several stills have been released for the film, which runs a lean sixty-nine minutes. The stills show the monster and how each character is attacked by this gruesome (yet small) beast. Utilizing practical effects, this feature does look impressive. Cyst does not have a release date as of yet.

Fans of wonderfully wooden trash, look no further. Tyler Russell’s vintage monster movie throwback is a total blast of blood, puss, and ominously oozy bodily fluids. A loud, brash, B-movie love letter, it’s the sort of geniusly crap genre fare that caters to a very specific audience, and does so in the least pretentious, most affectionate way imaginable. Expect stupid, get stupider, and love it all the same.
Mimicking the 50s/60s drive-in charm, Cyst goes all-in on its title right from the off. Maniacal skin specialist Dr. Guy (Troll 2’s George Hardy) loses control of his dastardly pimple-erasing machine, accidentally creating a giant cyst monster that lays waste to his entire surgery, and everyone in it. On her last day on the job, no-nonsense nurse Patricia (Sky Sharks’ Eva Habermann) leads the charge, but with the doctor losing his mind and the monster mutating more and more by the second,...

It’s the early 1960s and a small-town doctor invents a machine that uses laser technology to remove skin abnormalities. He pulls out all the stops to make sure his final chance to get the patent on his ‘Get Gone’ appliance goes smoothly. But his nurse thinks the contraption is dangerous and not ready. The struggle between the two causes the apparatus to malfunction creating a giant cyst monster that goes on a bloody rampage.
Very much in the vein of the William Castle and Rgoer Corman flicks of the 50s and 60s, Cyst is – like the remake of The Brain That Wouldn’t Die which also screened as part of Frightfest – very much an homage to the films of that period, with set and costume design,...

A wide assortment of new movies were added to Netflix last week, and in case you’re not sure where to start, here’s a brief look at some of the best of them.
First of, in any list that includes E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, it has to go first. Steven Spielberg’s timeless classic is, on the vague off-chance you’re unaware, about a friendly and childlike alien who’s accidentally abandoned on Earth and befriends the young Elliot, with whom he develops an empathic symbiosis and who must save him from government agents investigating the presence.
As for the rest? Well, take a look below for our full rundown of the best of the best in terms of what Netflix has added so far this month:

Filmmakers and actors Tommy Wiseau and Greg Sestero are going from the confines of the cult hit The Room to intergalactic adventures in the new animated pilot SpaceWorld.
Wiseau and Sestero are lending their voice to the loosely serialized animated sci-fi series. Wiseau stars as the mysterious bounty hunter known as TX, a man in search of his home planet, which he knows absolutely nothing about. Sestero’s Drogol is TX’s lifelong nemesis and SpaceWorld’s most bloodthirsty killer. Together, they explore and explode SpaceWorld’s vast but dingy universe of limitless possibilities, technologies, and stupidities.
The self-aware pilot describes itself as a sci-fi series that “takes down its hair, kicks off its boots, and lets itself be straight-up dumb.” The new project comes two years after the critically acclaimed film The Disaster Artist directed by James Franco and written by Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber. The film...

Tommy Wiseau is best known for writing, directing, and starring in the classic film The Room, which has become infamous for being so terrible. The movie is so legendary that James Franco made a great movie based on the making of The Room called The Disaster Artist.
Well, it looks like Wiseau is making a new movie, and it looks as wonderfully bad as you might imagine. It’s a shark attack movie called Big Shark and it could be gloriously worse than the Sharknado movies.

The duo’s latest project: a mini-remake of “The Dark Knight,” complete with Wiseau as the Joker and Sestero as Batman.
Earlier this year, Wiseau teamed up with Nerdist to offer up an “audition tape” that sort of pitched the multi-hyphenate as the Dceu’s next big villain. While Joaquin Phoenix ultimately snagged the lead role in Todd Phillips’ upcoming “Joker” film, Wiseau is still out here touting his take on the Joker which, paired with Wiseau’s unusual syntax and trademark mannerisms, actually kind of works. (To say nothing of Sestero’s alternately silly and spot-on take of Christian Bale’s vicious Bat-growl.

Back in March of this year, Tommy Wiseau put together an audition tape where he campaigned to take the role of The Joker in the then-recently announced origin movie focusing on the Batman villain. It was mostly a hilarious way to promote the new movie Best F(r)iends Vol. 1 that he made with The Room […]

Wiseau serious?
Tommy Wiseau's notoriously terrible self-financed film The Room has gone on to become so weirdly beloved and memed amongst so-bad-it's-good fans that they really need to invent a new genre of meta purely for the actor/producer/director and European(?) mystery man to reside within.
Such is his infamy, James Franco even played him in 2017's Hollywood love letter The Disaster Artist, which dramatised the creation of The Room in the early 00s, and virtually every bonkers decision that was made during its production.
It's fair to say at this point that Wiseau would quite like to play the Joker, and if we've learned anything from the bizarre tales of his life so far, it's that Tommy Wiseau tends to get things he wants. Somehow. To that end, he's not only previously 'auditioned' as the Clown Prince of Crime, he's now fully recreated the...

Tommy Wiseau has upped his apparent love of the Clown Prince of Crime, filming a complete scene from “The Dark Knight,” this time roping in his Best F(r)iend Greg Sestero to play opposite him as Batman.
Back in March, the “auteur” behind “The Room” threw his name into the ring to be considered for the new Joker movie. He even filmed an audition tape in full makeup. Well, Joaquin Phoenix got that part, and he only looks a little sillier than Wiseau did.
In a new video for the Nerdist, Wiseau and Sestero re-enacted the famous interrogation scene between Heath Ledger and Christian Bale in Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight.”
Check it out above.
