Publisher/developer Serafini Productions continues their work on their still-in-development BrokenLore series of games, and has released a new trailer each for two of them in Don’T Watch and Follow.

In BrokenLore: Don’T Watch (which has a demo available on its Steam page), players assume the role of Shinji, who is a young hikikomori, a Japanese term for individuals with a form of severe social withdrawal. In this case, Shiji is trapped inside his small Tokyo apartment. With unpaid rent, mounting bills, and a family that doesn’t understand him, he feels isolated from the world—and from himself. His only escape is video games, and his only window to the outside world is his PC. But even those have their limits.

You’ll explore Shinji’s mind as it unravels, which from the trailer, features plenty of eyes in some peculiar places. They’re the least of Shinji’s worries,...

A horror movie franchise that's been dormant for years is getting revived with an all-new reboot. The announcement comes nearly two decades after the original movie's release.

In 2005, the horror movie Wolf Creek was released. Introducing John Jarratt as serial killer Mick Taylor, the film followed British tourists getting stalked by the murderer in the Australian outback. Jarratt returned for a sequel, released in 2013, which saw Mick again targeting tourists who make the mistake of venturing into his territory. From 2016 to 2017, Jarratt would also star as Mick in the Australian TV series, this time focusing on a teen American tourist. There had been rumors ever since of a third movie getting made, and now Deadline has revealed that a new installment of the film series is officially moving forward.

Actor Maika Monroe boasts a long list of film credits, but Longlegs launched her into the mainstream with a gripping performance. Most fans track her cult appeal in horror started with 2014's It Follows.

2014's It Follows was a sleeper hit and a modern horror classic. The film reimagined a reliable horror trope with a disturbing twist: a group of teenagers is whittled down by a sexually-transmitted ghost. The film received critical acclaim and outperformed at the box office, earning $23.3 million against its $1.3 million budget. Aside from its harrowing premise, It Follows' appeal is in its standout performances, particularly Maika Monroe's as the main protagonist. The film is a staple of annual Halloween marathons, and fans can rewatch it when it premieres on Paramount+ on Sept. 1.

New Line...

Last October, it was announced that writer/director David Robert Mitchell and actress Maika Monroe are reteaming for a sequel to horror film It Follows, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival ten years ago. The sequel is being called They Follow – and earlier this month, Monroe promised the folks at Collider that this film will be “bigger, darker, and more f*cked up” than its predecessor. Now, during an interview with IndieWire, Monroe confirmed that the story picks up 10 years after the events of It Follows, and that she’s excited to get to work on it… especially since this is the first time in her career that she’ll have the chance to reprise a role for a sequel.

Monroe previously told IndieWire, “I really got lucky with It Follows. It sort of changed the game for the horror genre. I think back in the ’60s and ’70s and early ’80s,...

It Follows earned its stripes as an indie horror fan-favorite with its uniquely disturbing premise. Actor Maika Monroe said the They Follow script confirms the long-overdue sequel is worth the wait.

It Follows' cult fan base was relieved with the announcement that a sequel is finally happening. They Follow was announced in development in October 2023 and it confirmed some of the original cast would be returning. Jay Height (played by Maika Monroe) did survive the events of the original, but its ending was also ambiguous and foreboding. In an interview with IndieWire, Monroe promises fans a worthy sequel, confirming she's already read the script. She teased what has happened to Jay in between the films, hinting her sinister stalker isn't done with her just yet.

The film financier out of Atlanta, Georgia, Jon Gosier of FilmHedge, was very visible this year in Cannes. Aside from the banner on the Croisette advertising his office, his company sponsored the Producer’s Club for the second year and it graced the cover of the Cannes Market Guide. Who is this newly visible player? A discussion with Gosier follows.(L to R) Mickey Vetter (FilmHedge), Bruno Chaetlin (FilmFestivals.com), Erik Gordon (FilmHedge), Jon Gosier (FilmHedge), Ashley H. (Morgan Stanley)

His company, FilmHedge, along with his company Southbox Entertainment, announced a $25M partnership with Riveting Entertainment in which Gosier will be both investor and strategic advisor. Production on their first feature-length film will begin in Georgia this year.

FilmHedge also announced that Archstone Entertainment has secured worldwide sales rights to a film they financed called The December Cross.

This marks the second year that FilmHedge has sponsored the Cannes Film Festival Producers’ Club. They sponsor it, not because they are looking for producers. Producers themselves are always looking for money. They sponsor it so that they can educate the producers on how best to get that money. Things like equity vs. debt loans and how to get FilmHedge’s debt loans. The Film Financing Forum is the only program I know of that explains the business of film financing to filmmakers and that is the reason for Jon’s presence at the Producers’ Club.

Last year the Film Financing Forum focused on female filmmakers. Two of the largest investors in his company are women in venture capital. This year the focus has broadened but includes filmmakers from Africa and the African Diaspora.

Jon Gosier, the Founder and CEO of FilmHedge, is an entrepreneur, software developer, investor, and philanthropist. He graduated Scad, The Savannah College of Art and Design and began his career in music at a recording studio. He always had an interest in movies, but at that time in Atlanta, there was no movie industry. When a “then-unknown guy” brought his movie to the studio, Gosier asked to be put on his session because of this interest.

The unknown guy was Tyler Perry doing some audio for the movie Diary of A Mad Black Woman. About two years later, Tyler Perry Studios reached out and asked him to join them as Music/Audio Supervisor. That made him one of the first employees to work at the illustrious Tyler Perry Studios, where he learned the ins and outs of closing media deals. Now Gosier is using his knowledge to help filmmakers finance feature films, TV series, and documentaries.

Fast forward ten years. After working for Tyler for a while, he quit to do his own thing as an entrepreneur and he built several technology companies across multiple continents, became an angel investor and dabbled as a venture capitalist.

Gosier founded Audigent, which is the leading data activation, curation, and identity platform used by major music publishers, including Warner Music, which now owns a substantial stake of the company. Jon, a native of Georgia, is also the founder of Southbox Entertainment (2018), a film and TV production and co-financing company based in Atlanta.

He was named as one of Ten African Tech Voices to Follow on Twitter by CNN and one of the 25 most influential African-Americans in Technology by Business Insider. He was awarded a Ted Fellowship in 2009 and later named a Ted Senior Fellow. He was born May 20, 1981 (age 42 years) in Reston, Virginia, United States and has also founded Appfrica, HiveColab, and Abayima.

Now Gosier is using his knowledge to help aspiring filmmakers find their footing by securing financing for their feature films, TV shows or documentaries.

Sydney: I liked how your CFO/COO, Josh Harris, explained it: “Technology and streaming has rewired entertainment consumption forever, pushing Hollywood to produce more content at greater speed. FilmHedge is built at the intersection of technology and entertainment and is uniquely positioned to influence the evolution of the film industry by creating efficiencies while deploying much needed private capital into a diverse marketplace.”

Josh Harris, with 20-plus years in institutional finance, worked as a lender on over $1 billion of film transactions and in leadership for top banks like Rbc and Bank of Hawaii, supporting their corporate and commercial banking platforms. Most recently, he grew the entertainment financing division at City National Bank, an Rbc company, helping to increase returns and expand the entertainment portfolio of businesses. Harris is steeped in regulatory know-how. His training and experience in financial services gives him the ability to forecast trends and anticipate market dynamics. His involvement in the entertainment financing vertical and working closely with studios, film, and television has resulted in Harris building a vast influential network at the nexus of Hollywood and Wall Street.

“Josh is an instrumental part of our executive team as a board member and co-founder, helping us secure our debt deal earlier this year and he has the creativity to improve how we deliver financial products to filmmakers. Josh’s acumen and experience in the C-suite will be vital to the growth of FilmHedge, as we continue to see a greater usage rate on our platform,” said Gosier.

Headquarted in Atlanta, Georgia, FilmHedge is a film and TV finance company that leverages proprietary technology to improve the lending process for filmmakers. FilmHedge is an alternative lender providing short-term debt financing up to $10 million dollars per film or TV series to qualified productions. The technology that FilmHedge has built upon is customized for the unique needs of the film and TV finance industry. Through the innovative application of this technology, FilmHedge can approve lending in a matter of days whereas legacy bank lenders can take weeks or even months. Because FilmHedge relies on technology for the underwriting process, another advantage is that there is no bias in the financing process.

Can you explain to me what non-equity means?

It means debt financing. We don’t own the film or have a share (equity) in the film. We are loaning money to the film company to make the film.

Could you explain to me the differences between venture capital, private equity and hedge funds?

Venture capitalists are only privately held companies using other people’s money to drive up the paper value of other privately owned companies. They can remain privately owned up to 10 years or more before going public. That is a long time to wait for a return on the investment. They typically start early with start-up companies which then go public or are flipped to other owners.

Private equity firms invest a mix of private and public traded companies. They have shorter return times but also less return on the investment, but they have more deals than Vc companies.

Hedge funds are a mix of both of the above. We invest in private and public companies and have both long and short positions.

How do you determine what films to make loans to?

To secure lending from FilmHedge, the production must satisfy our key criteria. First, the borrowers must have sufficient collateral for their production. The film must also have a completion bond, a type of insurance that guarantees a film will be completed or the financial backers will be made whole. FilmHedge considers distribution agreements (with payment clauses known as minimum guarantees), tax credits, and pre-sales as collateral.

FilmHedge earns a net average of 11.28%, which is believed to be above the industry average. Gosier believes transparency is critical to the industry, which is why his company publicly publishes an annual report detailing returns. In 2021, FilmHedge directed $101 million into 10 feature films which generated $113 million within 12 months.

FilmHedge’s technology monitors for production redflags that can result in severe financial problems like going over-budget, misappropriation of funds, and fraud. The software FilmHedge employs monitors in real-time producer spending and transactions via an easy-to-use dashboard that allows investors to see things like allocation of monies, interest earned, and more. You can see an example here.

With increased scrutiny and regulatory oversight of traditional banks brought on by the recent failure of high-profile banks, it’s become more difficult for filmmakers to access capital. This is a gap FilmHedge seeks to fill and the company has already seen increased demand in the past few months.

How can you guarantee such an Roi?

In short, it goes back to the criteria we require for FilmHedge to fund a production. We only fund deals that are bonded and where there’s essentially already a buyer or other financial stakeholders in place. The agreements between the producer and these stakeholders serve as collateral for us.

What about the recent bank failures? How are you affected?

When we began in 2020, Covid broke out. Now there are bank failures. FilmHedge provides private credit. We lend funding to the project, not the filmmaker. Private credit is attractive for investors, and film financing offers a reliable, relatively quick return akin to other asset classes like real estate, trade finance, or factoring.

Also consider that in turbulent economic times, three things thrive: guns, liquor, and entertainment. As a critical piece of the entertainment puzzle, FilmHedge stands to benefit in times like these when compared to traditional investment paths.

Ok, now for the hard questions:

Can you explain the systemic exclusion of Blacks in film financing?

The perception that financing is tilted against a particular group is not that easy. The reality is that a lot of filmmakers simply do not understand how the industry works. And the financing part can be daunting for creatives who invest so much of their energy on developing scripts. Filmmakers have to learn how the business side of the system works. The system, in large part, is not broken. Many filmmakers run into a wall and they think it’s because of x, but it is not always the case. And with FilmHedge in particular, we have improved the system to virtually eliminate any discrimination when it comes to who gets funding and who does not. Our system approves deals exclusively based on quantitative attributes, either there’s collateral in place or there isn’t. That’s as objective and equitable as it gets. It is looking strictly at whether or not the production has met our criteria for funding. I spend a lot of time and do a lot of mentoring with emerging filmmakers educating on the basics of film finance. Once you understand how the system works, you can work within it.

Well you can say that, but I know plenty of women who are well qualified who cannot raise money because the Hollywood old boy’s network does exclude them. If there are more projects looking for money than there is money, choices get made ln who gets that money.

I am not saying the industry is free of blame. The entertainment industry faces the same systemic issues other industries face no doubt. That is why it’s important to educate marginalized groups on how to work the system, and in the case of FilmHedge, how to access funding. I can tell you that Georgia is a welcoming home for mainstream filmmakers, as well as marginalized groups. Our open minds and innovative spirit is part of what makes Georgia the top destination for production, outpacing even Hollywood.

Why did FilmHedge establish roots in Atlanta?

During the 2021 fiscal year, the film and television industry set records with $4 billion in direct spending on productions in the state of Georgia. This industry spending was the result of 366 productions filmed in the state — represented by 21 feature films, 45 independent films, 222 television and episodic productions, 57 commercials, and 21 music videos.

Georgia has led the industry in production-friendly policy that has brought blue chip talent and spending to the state. These policies also bring investment, this transaction being a great example.

I also grew up here.

Perks of filming in Georgia:

In Georgia, entertainment tax credits are coveted by TV and Film producers. The State’s film, television, and digital entertainment tax credit of 30% offers significant cost savings for those producing feature films, television series, music videos and commercials, as well as interactive games and animation.

Georgia Film and TV Tax Credit Jumps to a Record $1.2 Billion

Through the Entertainment Industry Investment Act, Georgia provides a 20% tax credit for companies that spend $500,000 or more on production and post-production in-state, either in a single production or across multiple projects. The state grants these productions an additional 10 percent tax credit if the finished project includes a promotional logo in the end credits.

How is Georgia’s election-fraud, anti-abortion and pro-gun stand affecting funds and filming there? I know I myself am guilty of condemning a political stance, but if there is still money to be gotten, I will go after it and I imagine filmmakers concur.

Well so far the rhetoric has not resulted in any policy changes. But politicians need to calculate the risk they are taking with their words.

Yes they should look both ways before crossing the line. You know how they use code words about Hollywood…Meanwhile, it’s business as usual, or as unusual, because it is an unusual business.

Thank you for your time.

You are welcome. Just to summarize:

FilmHedge financing is available to fill gaps in Pre-Production, Production, Post-Production, Re-shoots, or Finishing: FilmHedge provides private credit financing to Film and TV producers up to $10 million per production. We offer short term financing to borrowers working in Film, TV, and Media. Forms of collateral for lending include corporate media agreements like distribution, minimum guarantees, pre-sales, and federal or state tax credits etc.

So superhero theme songs, while it is not an element that a lot of people pay attention to, it is one of the key aspects that make superhero characters recognisable and awesome and in this episode I cover:

1) Superhero theme importance.

2) The recognisable themes.

3) The themes that don’t get enough love.

The Beast can awaken in your living room, as Universal Pictures Home Entertainment will unleash M. Night Shyamalan's Split on Digital HD on April 4th, followed by a Blu-ray, DVD, and VOD release on April 18th, with special features including an alternate ending and deleted scenes.

Press Release: Universal City, California, March 1, 2017 – Writer and Director M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, The Visit) delivers his most gripping film yet with Split, an original psychological thriller available on Digital HD on April 4, 2017 and on Blu-ray™, DVD and On Demand on April 18, 2017, from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. Jason Blum (Insidious, Ouija, The Visit, The Purge series) returns to collaborate with Shyamalan in the box-office hit, starring James McAvoy (X-Men: Apocalypse, Victor Frankenstein). The frightening thriller Split delves into the mysterious depths of one man’s fractured mind as a terror unlike the world has seen prepares to be unleashed.

As you may recall (quite possibly with glee), Richard Spencer got punched in the face in Washington D.C. shortly after Donald Trump’s sparsely attended inauguration. Video of said thrashing instantly went viral, both in its original form and the inevitable remixes. Said footage is certain to be part of this Saturday’s Fash Bash Bash: A Night of Nazi-Punching on Film, a free mini-festival in New York organized by the New Inquiry — and yes, punch will be served.

The screenwriters and executive producers of Deadpool take us through the fight to bring the movie to the screen....

It took more than six years of development for Fox’s X-Men spin-off movie Deadpool to make it to the big screen. Along the way, multiple script drafts were written and manifold Marvel Comics characters were dropped in and out. It was only when that much-talked-about test footage did the rounds to much online applause that movie finally set a release date and became a tangible reality.

Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick – the writers who’ve been on board the R-rated Ryan Reynolds superhero movie since the start – spoke to us on the phone just before the movie’s release. We spoke about all sorts, covering X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Zombieland 2 and, of course, the Merc With The Mouth himself…

Walton Goggins chats about working with Tarantino, The Hateful Eight, and House Of 1000 Corpses...

Walton Goggins is excited about The Hateful Eight. The film is really good, he’s terrific in it and, as one of the lead characters in the new Quentin Tarantino film, it’s perhaps his most high profile role to date. He has a lot to be excited about.

Even his hair looks excited, jutting up wildly. He’s animated and moves a lot, but he’s not wired and out of control. He just exudes enthusiasm and seems happy to be where he is, talking about his work. He’s great fun to talk to; enthusiastic and warm interview subjects are something of a gift. Here’s how our chat with Walton Goggins went.

How do you respond, when you get that script (for The Hateful Eight)?

If you're after a sequel that retreads the original, then join us for a look at Home Alone 2: Lost In New York...

Spoilers lie ahead.

If any film needed a sequel, it was Home Alone. I don’t mean needed in the sense that it was culturally necessary, but financially? You’d have to be an idiot not to have rushed it into production. Made for $18 million, the first Home Alone made almost half a billion dollars. Even a fraction of that success would mean a fresh yacht for everyone involved.

This follow-up to the original movie was the only one to bring back Macaulay Culkin, and dropped right in the middle of Culkamania. His childhood movie career would be over just two years later, but when Lost In New York came out it was the pre-teen equivalent of a new Star Wars movie. In the...

We begin with our predictions of the 2015 Video Game Awards before moving on to a quick holiday gift guide for our listeners to consider when shopping this Christmas season.

And closing off our show is a non-spoiler and spoiler discussion of Dontnod’s indie hit Life Is Strange. Joining us this week is Popoptiq’s Games Editor, Mike Worby.

You've heard from a few members of our team of their quick lists of gratitude so naturally your host and obsessive ringleader, Nathaniel, must chime in. As you read this I'm surely already stuffing myself but this year I've planned ahead with a big diet and exercize program to commence on November 30th.

I'm thankful for...

..."rug" in Room, steering wheels in Mad Max Fury Road, the train sets in Carol and Ant-Man, and Gerda's evolving portraits of Lili in The Danish Girl

... Grandma's bonobos fixation

... Sarah Paulson's ability to elevate every single project she's in whether said project is awesome (Carol) or, let's say, "challenged" (Ahs: Hotel and Ahs in general for that matter)

... the way 2015's hottest topics kept reminding us of Cate Blanchett's Blue Jasmine speech in 2014

Back in 1993, director Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel were given the tough task of converting a non-narrative Nintendo video game into a motion picture. That movie of course is Super Mario Bros. and it’s the first live-action video game movie ever made. It is also not very good and this week the NXpress team set aside some time to discuss this strange beast. During our main event, we review Typoman, a two-dimensional puzzle platformer distinguished by a unique game world. You slip into the role of the Hero struggling to make your way through a dark, surreal world. Despite your small stature you have a powerful gift: You can use letters to alter your environment! And finally, Tim gives us his long awaited review of Animal Crossing amiibo Festival for the WiiU. All this and more!

*Also, as promised, our Mario Maker levels! Let us know what you think!

Iron Banner is back, and after the last Iron Blunder Bungie released, this one had better be Iron Better! Tim and Ryan share their thoughts on the most recent iteration of Iron Banner, wondering if this could be the nail in the coffin for Destiny. Then, on the verge of a big November update, and another update coming in December, the Two Man Fireteam discuss what they hope for and expect as the game evolves. This episode covers issues with balance, Star Wars Battlefront, solutions to limited vault space, and even a disturbing discussion of the Kool-Aid Man. Oh yeaahh!

This week, Patrick, Rick, Aaron and Tim sit back and reminisce on some of their fondest memories playing video games as kids. Among the many topics discussed is the Panasonic 3Do, a home video game console platform developed by The 3Do Company — the Magnavox Odyssey is the first commercial home video game console — Legendary Wings, a long-lost Nes title — and Pokemon Red & Blue. In our main event, we sit down and discuss the latest Nintendo Direct and the Final Fantasy/Super Smash Bros. news that shocked everyone. We take some time to also discuss The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and the introduction to Linkelle. In our last segment, we invite PopOptiq’s Games Editor Mike Worby to announce the Super Mario Maker Challenge winners. All this and more!

2015 is the proverbial bomb. An explosive lineup of movies and games is being released, and Destiny is caught in the wake and fallout. Will Bungie’s latest baby be able to survive the holiday onslaught with such Aaa titles as Call of Duty, Fallout, Halo, Assassin’s Creed, Tomb Raider, and of course Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival being released? The Two Man Fireteam estimate Destiny‘s chances of survival before going in to what it’ll take for this game, and this show, to survive. Let’s be honest, the podcast was born doomed, but Destiny has more of a fighting chance. Ryan and Tim also discuss the coming updates, the raid, the recent Halloween event, and Scientology. Enjoy this very special episode of This Podcast Came From the Moon, except not too special ’cause this podcast, this podcast never changes.

As Bob Odenkirk and David Cross reunite for Netflix's W/Bob & David, we revisit the pair's original comedy series, Mr. Show...

“Hey, everybody! It's Bob and David!”

This Friday, Netflix will release four episodes of W/Bob & David, a new sketch show that reunites the cast of HBO's ground-breaking comedy series Mr. Show With Bob & David. For comedy fans of all stripes, this is unspeakably good news.

Mr. Show ran for 30 episodes (plus two clip show specials) between 1995 and 1998. It didn't set the world alight in terms of audience figures, but its weird and wonderful stylings mark it as a forerunner to shows like The Sarah Silverman Show, Portlandia, Key & Peele, Inside Amy Schumer and Tim & Eric Awesome Show! Great Job. To many of the alternative comedians currently working and coming up, Mr. Show is nothing short of the American answer to Monty Python's Flying Circus.

GoldenEye 007 was originally conceived as an on-rails shooter inspired by Sega’s Virtual Cop, before being redesigned as a free-roaming shooter. Highly revered by gamers worldwide, GoldenEye 007 is often credited with kick-starting the first-person shooter craze on consoles and if not for GoldenEye, a franchise like Call of Duty might never have been. This week we discuss the N64 classic along with Kingdom Hearts, and the unbelievable size of Xenoblade Chronicles X. Rick also announces the big news that he purchased a new console but we won’t say which. You’ll just have to listen and find out. All this and more.

This week on Destiny wasn’t great. Some terrible wording on the weekly update, some unenjoyable ventures into the Crucible, overall lack of balance, the return of Trials, and some more time with the Festival of the Lost event ensured that. Listen to the Two Man Fireteam discuss the weekly update and some general thoughts on how Destiny could improve. Also discussed are challenge mode for the raid, class balancing, and the random drop system.

To mark Pixar's Ratatouille being scored by a live orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall, we chat to film composer Michael Giacchino...

Ratatouille returns to the big screen this Wednesday - with an orchestra in tow. Brad Bird's 2007 Pixar animation is showing at the Royal Albert Hall, accompanied by a full orchestra.

If you're one of the 12 people who haven't seen it, the film follows food-loving rat Remy as he secretly teams up with a hapless kitchen boy in Paris to create beautiful dishes. But that alchemy of ingredients takes place place off-screen too: between the visuals and Michael Giacchino's Grammy-winning and Oscar-nominated score.

As life-long fans of his work, from Jurassic World and Mission: Impossible to Inside Out and J.J. Abrams' Star Trek reboot, we dropped him a note to quiz him on how he composes, why he names his tracks with such bad puns - and,...

This week we invited PopOptiq’s Game Editor Mike Worby to discuss what we here at NXpress consider one of the finest games ever made, Resident Evil 4. It’s been over a decade since Capcom’s third-person survival horror/action sequel was released on the GameGube and we’ll let you know if it still holds up by today’s standards. But before we get into RE4 we address a rather controversial article published on our website last week that has many Nintendo fans furious.
