First off if, like me, you saw the title of this movie and was a little put off, rest assured that Fractured is much better than the generic title…

After looking up director Jamie Patterson it should have been no surprise that he has directed quite a few films (although not any I have actually seen), because Fractured looks very much like a movie made by an experienced filmmaker. It looks great and I loved some of the camera work. There’s some expert use of lighting and several really interesting and simply fantastic-looking shots. Things that might sound simple but on screen are so much more. Like an almost black and white shot of a house with one character in light (and therefore colour) seen through a window.

"Trapped inside here, but at least we're alive." IFC Midnight has debuted an official Us trailer for a horror thriller titled Tank 432, directed by Nick Gillespie, and executive produced by filmmaker Ben Wheatley. This first premiered at FrightFest in the UK last year but is only now finally a release. At this point, there's almost an entire subgenre of takes-place-inside-a-tank films, between Fury and Clash. Tank 432 also takes place inside a tank, but it's a bit different - with more of an apocalyptic horror angle. Starring Rupert Evans, Steve Garry, Deirdre Mullins, Michael Smiley, Gordon Kennedy, April Pearson. This was previously titled Belly of the Bulldog, and is described as a "mind-bending plunge into hallucinatory terror." Here's the official Us trailer (+ poster) for Nick Gillespie's Tank 432, direct from YouTube (via Tfs): Under siege by a mysterious enemy in an apocalyptic, war-torn landscape, a band of mercenary soldiers, hooded hostages in tow,...

There will be many family-friendly films available at multiplexes this Thanksgiving, but if you are looking for something that may put some fright into your relatives, why not have them enter the twisted mind of Ben Wheatley? Before his next directorial effort Free Fire arrives this spring, he’s executive produced a new post-apocalyptic thriller Tank 432. Directed by Nick Gillespie, a long-time member of Wheatley’s go-to camera crew, IFC Midnight is putting this one out next week in both limited release and on VOD, and we now have the U.S. trailer.

We said in our review, “Director Ben Wheatley is showing his eye for talent by putting his name behind a guy who’s worked closely with him since 2011’s Kill List. A filmmaker in his own right, camera operator Nick Gillespie has stayed by Wheatley’s side on every subsequent project up to and including the forthcoming Free Fire.

Any time someone mentions Dog Soldiers and Jacob’s Ladder in the same sentence when describing a film, you’ve piqued my interest. Two of my favourite films of all time, mashed together in one film? I’m definitely listening. Well, that’s what’s being floated around for Nick Gillespie’s Tank 432, aka Belly Of The Bulldog. The film […]...

Director Ben Wheatley is showing his eye for talent by putting his name behind a guy who’s worked closely with him since 2011’s Kill List. A filmmaker in his own right, camera operator Nick Gillespie has stayed by Wheatley’s side on every subsequent project up to and including the forthcoming Free Fire. This time around it’s he who’s providing the claustrophobic thriller as writer and director of Tank 432 (formerly known as Belly of the Bulldog). It’s a doozy too—all mood, atmosphere, and mystery with our own confusion about the action mirrored in those onscreen. All they know is that they have orders. Extract their prisoners, survive the war, and write everything down. But while they know what to do, the why seems universally out of reach.

Think The Maze Runner, but for adults. I’m not saying The Maze Runner is specifically for children,...

Exclusive: UK deal secured for Nick Gillespie’s psychological thriller Belly Of The Bulldog.

Kaleidoscope has picked up UK rights to Belly Of The Bulldog.

Nick Gillespie’s feature debut was executive produced by High-Rise director Ben Wheatley, who provided creative guidance throughout. Gillespie has worked alongside Wheatley over the past seven years on projects from Kill List to the upcoming Free Fire.

“We’ve capture some of the most explosive sequences I could ever of hoped for, and having Ben involved from script stage has really helped these elements come together,” said Gillespie.

“We really got our hands dirty filming this one, cutting the sides off real tanks, running people over with tanks, setting people’s heads on fire, and things like that. It was a real challenge but we did it.”

Produced by Finn Bruce and Jen Handorf, Belly Of The Bulldog follows a group of mercenaries and their human cargo, all of whom...

Roll up for the best of this year’s Halloween horror cinema, from the Dead & Breakfast all-nighter in Derby to The Exorcist with added ouija board experience in Muswell Hill

To the traditional sounds of Halloween – screams of terror, groans of pain, revving chainsaws, retching in the aisles and the like – come some more tuneful emanations this hallowed eve. Film-plus-live-music events are this season’s must-have, it seems. The perennial Chills In The Chapel, at Islington’s Union Chapel, has been doing this for a while. This year it brings electronic composer and John Carpenter collaborator Alan Howarth to preside over doomful synth accompaniment to Escape From New York (Fri), and a medley of clips from the Halloween franchise (31 Oct). In a similar vein, Claudio Simonetti’s Goblin perform their score to a screening of giallo classic Profondo Rosso live for the climax of Sheffield’s gruesomely varied Celluloid Screams horror festival this Sunday.

The Horror Network anthology, directed by some of the horror genre's newest talents, will arrive on DVD and VOD on October 27th. Also in this round-up: details on the Film4 FrightFest Halloween event and a clip from the zombie film 6:15.

The Horror Network: Press Release: "New York, NY - Wild Eye Releasing has set loose the latest entry in the horror anthology genre, The Horror Network. Created by Brian Dorton and Douglas Conner, this first volume of terror tales features segments directed by Dorton, Conner, Joseph Graham, Manuel Marín, Lee Matthews and Ignacio Martín Lerma, the series has been hailed as "a collection of nightmares that scream for all horror fans to see." The film will be available on DVD and VOD October 27th.

Serial killers, ghostly phone calls, inner demons, otherworld monsters and creepy stalkers collide in this frightening anthology. Six of horror's most promising new directing talents...

Film4 FrightFest has announced their line-up for their big Halloween 2015 event with James Purefoy and Olga Kurylenko leading the guest line-up. The line-up includes a totally shocking threequel, a haunted house of horrors, demonic possession, claustrophobic tank terror, a head-spinning brutal thriller and a secret screening.

The Film4 FrightFest Halloween event is back at the Prince Charles Cinema on Saturday 24 Oct with six brand new movies, including two World premieres, a European and two UK premieres. This year’s Shockathon kicks off at 11am with the surprise movies which guarantees a sci-fi cocktail of weird creatures, crude humour and hilarious action. Here is the press release:

Next up is the UK Premiere of The Vatican Tapes, a dynamic, unusual and thrilling exorcism shocker by Crank director Mark Neveldine. This is followed by the World Premiere of The Unspoken, a chill-orientated sinister ghost story with an insidious sting in its tale.
