Marvel and ABC have hired feature film director Roel Reine to helm the first two IMAX episodes of their new series The Inhumans. Reine has worked on a ton of B-movie film projects such as Death Race 2, The Marine 2, The Lost Tribe, The Scorpion King 3, The Man with the Iron Fists 2, Hard Target 2, and others. 

The list of films should give you a good idea of what we can expect from The Inhumans. Those films definitely aren't the greatest movies in the world, but some of them have been fun and entertaining. He's probably not the director I would have gone with, but let's see what he ends up doing with the property and the characters. He must've had a great pitch meeting with Marvel, otherwise he wouldn't have landed the gig. 

The Inhumans TV series is expected to focus on Black Bolt and the Inhumans royal family,...

Embarking on self-destructive behavior during the most harrowing points of their lives is often a natural inclination people have when they feel as though they don’t deserves redemption. But when they realize that they can use their skills to improve the situation they find themselves in, not only for themselves but also for society’s greater good, their intuition leads them to strive to capitalize on that chance. That powerful atonement process is highlighted in the protagonist’s predicament in the new action film, ‘Hard Target 2.’ The thriller, which was directed by Roel Reiné, serves as a sequel to the 1993 movie, ‘Hard Target.’ The original action film starred Jean-Claude Van [ Read More ]

Take one classic 90s action movie, featuring one of the most iconic action heroes of the decade and directed by a king of the genre. Throw in a two-decade wait and a British action star who is almost single-handedly keeping the old-school Dtv vibe alive (and doing a damn good job of it may I add); and you have Hard Target 2.

Twenty-three years. Has it really been that long? I remember the hype around John Woo’s Hard Target – you couldn’t pick up an issue of Impact Magazine for a least a year beforehand without some mention of the film amongst its pages. It’s actually very surprising that we didn’t get a sequel sooner.

The danger is real. Would you survive the hunt?

From Afar (Lorenzo Vigas)

Proving yet again that festival juries don’t read the trades or pay attention to chatter, the Golden Lion of the 72nd Venice Film Festival was presented to the Venezuelan drama From Afar, a film that screened relatively late at the fest, when general opinion on the Lido seemed to have settled on this being a race between some other titles. In a discerning and gutsy move,...

I know that the folks here at ScreenAnarchy (or is it Screen Anarchy? Space or no space?) have long been big fans of martial artist Scott Adkins. I wonder if any of them knew that there was a sequel for John Woo's calling card for Hollywood, Hard Target? And that it stars Scott Adkins.    A trailer for Hard Target 2 dropped out of nowhere the other day, like, no one knew it was coming. I just sat there staring at my screen and said, "Really?". This sequel was directed by Dutch director Roel Reine who has done a tonne of straight to video sequels of franchizes that started with a theatrical release then everything after the first film was Dtv. The Marine 2. Death...
