Unfolding in what looks like a single take, Thomas Sieben sends his protagonist into a house that’s haunted by historical trauma

When Maria (Nilam Farooq) shows up 37 weeks pregnant at the attractive but remote country home of her husband Viktor (David Kross), you sense immediately that no good can come of this. If a character is pregnant in a film, it’s about even odds that said pregnancy will function as a way to increase their vulnerability – though not all films take this as far as this nifty little low-budget horror movie from talented German director Thomas Sieben, which combines the haunted house subgenre with pregnant-woman-in-peril to nicely nerve-jangling effect.

Occult horror always needs a starting point, a first evil from which the later ghosties and bumps in the night derive. Some films take as their inciting incident a broader historical crime or atrocity and it’s into this category Home Sweet Home falls.

Tokyo International Film Festival (TIFF) will honour Japanese filmmaker Sho Miyake and Taiwanese director Fu Tien-yu with the Kurosawa Akira Award at its upcoming 37th edition (October 28 to November 6).

The award is presented to filmmakers who have “made waves in cinema and are expected to help guide the industry’s future”. A ceremony to present the awards will be held at the Imperial Hotel Tokyo on November 5.

Miyake, whose 2012 directorial debut Playback played in competition at the Locarno Film Festival, won praise from the selection committee for his recent humanist films Small, Slow But Steady and All The Long Nights,...

Exclusive: The live-action adaptation of hit the video game franchise Home Sweet Home Rebirth is debuting for world sales at the TIFF market with Diamond Media.

The completed film stars Michele Morrone (365 Days), William Moseley (The Chronicles Of Narnia), Thai-Norwegian model and actress Urassaya Sperbund (Brother Of The Year) and K-Pop/K-drama star Alexander Lee (Moorin School: Saga Of The Brave).

Filmmaking duo Alexander Kiesl and Steffen Hacker directed, with visuals coming from their German visual effects house Unexpected. The film was produced by Dean Altit under his Altit Media Group banner, and Pakin Maliwan, under Thailand-based Film Frame Productions.

Pic follows Jake (Moseley), a cop thrust into an alternate realm called ‘The Hindrance’ during a deadly mall shooting. With the help of a mysterious Novice Monk (Lee), Jake must race the clock to save his wife, Prang (Yaya), and stop an evil occultist, Mek (Morrone), from opening the Gates of Hell.

Air Supply may be the latest chart-topping musical act to get the big screen treatment.

Altit Media Group said it plans to make biopic about the band that will, in a nod to one of the group’s biggest hits, be entitled, “All Out of Love: The Air Supply Story.” The film will be released in summer 2025 to celebrate Air Supply’s 50th anniversary. Filming is set to take place in Australia and the U.K. during the fourth quarter of 2024.

Air Supply found success with a series of romantic ballads. Their hits include “Here I Am,” “Lost in Love,” “The One That You Love”, “All Out of Love”, “Every Woman in the World” and “Even the Nights Are Better.” The group scored seven Top 5 singles in a row, tying the Beatles’ consecutive run, and went on to sell more than 100 million albums worldwide while playing over 5,000 shows.

The question of who will continue the legacy of the 4Ks and particularly their successes on the international movie scene is one of the most dominant in the discussions among critics and scholars of Japanese cinema. Following the 2016 Un Certain Regard Jury Prize for “Harmonium”, one of the names that provides an answer to the aforementioned question is that of Koji Fukada. In the following text, we will take a closer and more thorough look at all the elements that make the 1980 born filmmaker a worthy successor of the aforementioned masters, starting from the very beginning of his life.

Born in Tokyo in Tokyo on January 5, 1980, Koji Fukada had a father who was a film buff, which resulted in him growing up in an environment surrounded with hundreds of VHS tapes, and subsequently, to become a cineaste, just like his old man. He watched the movies that inspired him to...

As the Thessaloniki Documentary Festival embarks on its second quarter-century, with its 26th edition kicking off March 7, the event’s industry arm continues to look for ways to reinvent itself. “We are educating ourselves. We are asking the local and the regional industries and communities, ‘What do you need from us?’” says Angeliki Vergou, who heads the Agora industry program. “I believe in this open dialogue…with our colleagues about the challenges they face and we face [as we] try to figure it out together.”

A perennial highlight of the industry program is the Agora’s co-production and co-financing forum, which takes place March 11 and will present 12 projects in development by documentary filmmakers from Southeastern Europe, the Middle East and the Black Sea region. Another highlight, Agora Docs in Progress, held March 12, showcases 11 films nearing completion and ready to hit the festival circuit this year.

Jianjie (JJ) Lin's debut feature “Brief History of a Family” stood out in the programming at Sundance this year. The Chinese-Danish co-production – one of this year's nominees in the World Cinema – Dramatic competition – surrenders to ambiguity. Unlike the many straightforward narratives at this year's edition, the film remains mum on who's on the side of good and evil – and perhaps, that underlines the thrill of the movie.

“A Brief History of a Family” premiered at Sundance 2024, and will play in the Panorama of the 74th edition of Berlinale. World sales is managed by Films Boutique and the screening schedule is available here.

Here, the spoiled Tu Wei (Muran Lin) lives a happy, upper middle class life with his two parents (Ke-Yu Guo and Feng Zu). Things begin to change, however, when he takes a high school classmate, Yan Shuo (Xilun Sun) under his wing after an accident at a basketball court.

Japanese auteur Kiyoshi Kurosawa, who won best director at Venice in 2020 with Wife Of A Spy, is working on a new suspense thriller titled Cloud, which will be introduced to buyers at the EFM by Japanese studio Nikkatsu Corporation.

The feature is in post-production with a Japanese release set for September 2024. A first look at the film can be seen above.

Written by Kurosawa, the story centres on Ryosuke Yoshii, an enigmatic young man who tries to make money by reselling shrewdly obtained goods on the internet under the pseudonym ‘Ratel’.

The film stars Masaki Suda, who won best actor...

Japanese studio Nikkatsu has boarded international sales on revenge drama Tatsumi by rising filmmaker Shoji Hiroshi ahead of the EFM.

It marks the second feature of Hiroshi, whose crime drama Ken And Kazu played a string of festivals in 2016, following its premiere at Tokyo International Film Festival where it won the top prize in the Cinema Splash section for independent Japanese films.

His follow-up is also a crime drama that follows Tatsumi, a fisherman who doubles as a “cleaner” for gangland hits. But when his ex is murdered in front of her young sister, the two form an alliance to seek vengeance.

Takumi Saitoh is best known as an in-demand actor with an enormous list of credits, but he has also established himself as a filmmaker and photographer. After modeling in Japan and overseas in his teens, he made his acting debut in 2001, and has appeared in such heralded films as Takashi Miike's For Love's Sake (2012) Junji Sakamoto's The Projects (2015), Eric Khoo's Ramen Teh (2018), Last of the Wolves (Nyaff 2021), Shin Ultraman and The Legend and Butterfly (2023), among many others. Saitoh has been directing short films for several decades, and made his feature debut with blank 13 (2018), which won awards at film festivals in Japan and abroad, followed by the omnibus Zokki (Nyaff 2020). Home Sweet Home marks his third feature as director.

Home Sweet Home – Where Evil Lives is said to be a “one-shot horror film told in real time,” and The Playmaker has signed with Constantin Film to handle international sales.

Thomas Sieben (“Kidnapping Stella”) directed the upcoming horror movie. “The film follows heavily pregnant Maria (Nilam Farooq) as she returns alone to the remote country house of her father-in-law (Von Dohnányi). She has no idea what secrets are lurking within.”

The plot synopsis continues, “As she investigates strange occurrences, including a sudden power outage while talking to her fiancé Viktor (David Kross), Maria descends to the basement and hears eerie noises and a mysterious breathing, unaware of a ghostly presence behind her.

“Determined to uncover the truth, she discovers a hidden...

Olivia Rodrigo may be one of the modern princesses of pop, but the 20-year-old singer has been getting a taste of the ’80s as of late by attending Depeche Mode and The Cure concerts with her dad, as she shared in a new interview with Vogue.

While at A-1 Record Shop in the East Village with writer Jia Tolentino, Rodrigo ruminated over an album by The Cure she found during her crate dig. “I’m going to see them in two weeks with my dad,” she said at the time. “He’s introducing me to all the bands he went to see when he was my age,” adding that Depeche Mode was on the list of legacy acts they’ve recently seen on stage.

Elsewhere in the profile, Rodrigo expanded upon how her parents played a big part in rooting her musical influences. They weren’t just fans of ’80s gothy new wave,...

In early May, we travelled to Nashville to spend a couple of days with Mick Mars and hear about his bitter departure from Mötley Crüe. Mars stepped away from the touring unit in late 2022 after 41 years in the group he co-founded.

In his telling, they used this as an excuse to violate legal agreements and deny him his share of band proceeds. The matter is currently...

So who likes “first looks” at things? This week brought them to the internet in bulk. In a nutshell: Quentin Tarantino unveiled a (somewhat controversial) peek at Once Upon a Time In Hollywood; HBO proved that yes, the Deadwood movie we’ve dreamed about for years will indeed be seen by actual human beings; and Netflix gives us an actual trailer — not a release date announcement, but a preview with footage — of Stranger Things‘ third season. Plus more Toy Story 4, more John Wick 3 and A24’s teaser for the...

The “Stranger Things” kids are facing their biggest foe yet: puberty. Ok, well, not really, since there is a mess of a monster at the end of the brand new Season 3 trailer, which dropped Wednesday, but things are not the same between the gang with their adolescent years fast approaching.

“We’re not kids anymore,” Mike (Finn Wolfhard) says in the clip. “I mean, what did you think? We were just going to sit in my basement all day?”

Yes? Can’t we all be kids again? You guys will get it when you’re adults.

Season 3 is set in the summer of 1985, so the trailer is backed by Motley Crue‘s “Home Sweet Home” and The Who‘s “Baba O’Riley” for maximum mid-’80s nostalgia (also definitely not a coincidence they chose a song that contains the lyrics “teenage wasteland”). We see Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) and Max (Sadie Sink) get closer,...

Netflix has (finally!) unveiled the official trailer for Stranger Things Season 3, and it's just as awesome as you would expect.

There's some solid music as always thanks to Mötley Crüe's 1985 hit "Home Sweet Home."

The clip is stuffed with some spoilers of epic proportions. There's a July 4th celebration, some first-rate teen drama, and an epic battle with a monstrous new villain.

“We’re not kids anymore,” says Mike in the trailer to his friends. “I mean, what did you think? We were just going to sit in my basement all day?”

Yes, these kids are growing up before our very eyes and I'm not sure how many fans will feel about it.

The storylines will likely age with them, but then again, how aliens invading a small town be a story for children?

The Stranger Things kids contend with growing pains and monsters in the trailer for Season 3 of the hit sci-fi series, which returns to Netflix July 4th.

The clip opens with Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo) returning home from summer camp only to see his electronic toys suddenly moving on their own. As Mötley Crüe’s “Home Sweet Home” plays, Dustin arms himself with a spray can and follows the toys, but when his friends appear behind him with a “Welcome Home” banner and noisemakers, the surprise still frightens Dustin and prompts him...

You’ve got to give Netflix full cross-promotion points for today’s first full trailer for Season 3 of Stranger Things.

Less than 48 hours before the biopic of Mötley Crüe launches on the streamer, the peek at the return of the Duffer Brothers series kicks off with the notorious band’s 1985 hit “Home Sweet Home.”

This being the latest look at the Emmy-nominated series, there’s a lot more than power ballads going on in the mid-’80s summer-set third season with the return of the Upside Down – as you can see by checking out the nearly three-minute trailer above and some first looks below.

For instance, there’s rats, spray paint, summer jobs, July 4th celebrations, roaring monsters, romance and the change that adolescence brings to Hawkins, Indiana friends Mike Wheeler, Dustin Henderson and Lucas Sinclair plus Noah Schnapp, Millie Bobby Brown’s Eleven and Sadie Sink’s Maxine “Max” Mayfield.

The world’s most notorious rock band, Mötley Crüe announces the release of The Dirt Soundtrack that accompanies the upcoming Netflix Film The Dirt, based on the New York Times best-selling 2001 autobiography by Mötley Crüe and Neil Strauss. The soundtrack and film are set to release March 22nd worldwide.

The upcoming Netflix Film The Dirt is an unflinching and uncensored story about sex, drugs, rock ‘n roll, fame, and the high price of excess.

Fans are dying for some anarchy in first trailer for "Dirt," Netflix’s Mötley Crüe biopic.

"Be strong and rock hard," Mötley Crüe advised. And when you deliver, "shout at the devil.” Netflix dropped the first Mötley Crüe biopic The Dirt trailer and it looks like the world's most notorious band had a blast earning that reputation. The film won't cop out on the band's more controversial and painful moments. Nikki Sixx’s Dec. 23, 1987 party til you die party with Slash and Steven Adler from Guns N’ Roses and Ratt’s Robbin Crosby; Tommy Lee’s stormy marriage to Heather Locklear; Mick Mars’ bone disease diagnosis, and the car crash that killed Hanoi Rocks drummer Nicholas “Razzle” Dingley and put Vince Neil in jail will all get celluloid treatment.

The biopic is a film adaptation of Mötley Crüe’s 2001 memoir, The Dirt: Confessions Of The World’s Most Notorious Rock Band.

As the Sarajevo Film Festival gets underway, Screen considers the regional funding landscape.

Film funds and national agencies in Southeastern Europe are more prevalent than at any point since the breakup of Yugoslavia in the 1990s.

However, while there is growing trust among filmmakers and producers that public funding for their projects is accessible - if not abundant - structural and political challenges still abound.

Below, Screen considers the public funding landscape across the Balkans.

For five years the Croatian Audiovisual Fund (Havc) was a shining example of a well-organised and appreciated institution in the region. In the last year, however, the organisation has experienced turbulent change and political interference, which resulted in CEO Hrvoje Hribar resigning in May.

Things are slowly getting back on track under new director Daniel Rafaelić, despite a recent dispute over funding for a Swiss documentary.

The official submissions for the foreign language Oscar are in from around the world, and the Academy has deemed a record 85 eligible to compete. Last year, 81 submissions were released theatrically in their home countries between October 1, 2014 and September 30, 2015. (This year’s deadline for submissions was October 3, 2016.)

Several Academy foreign committees comprised of members from all the branches will whittle down the films to a shortlist of nine and finally, five Oscar nominees.

The historical drama triumphed with six awards, while Oscar-nominated A War had to settle for one.Scroll down for full list of winners

Martin Zandvliet’s Land Of Mine triumphed at the 2016 Danish Film Awards, scooping six prizes including Best Film.

Consider this mansion flipped: Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West are parting ways with their lavish Bel Air estate for a cool $20 million, according to TMZ.

The home, which the famous couple bought for $11 million in January 2013, is set to hit the market in just a few days after extensive renovations.

Los Angeles real estate sources say the home will get the over $20-plus million they're asking, and, due to its prime location, might trigger a bidding war, TMZ reports.

The West family never even lived in the home – they moved in with the 35-year-old's mom Kris Jenner due to the remodel right after purchase.
