Directorial debut from Richard Bates Jr. starring Traci Lords with a cameo from John Waters.
The Legend of Kasper Hauser
Davide Manuli directs Vincent Gallo in two roles. Nuff Said. The trailer for this is just awesome... I couldn't resist watching.
John Dies at the End
Based on an excellent comic horror story, directed by Don Coscarelli who just happens to have directed some of my favourite films (Phantasm) and featuring one of my favourite actors Paul Giamatti.
V/H/S
Joe Swanberg, Ti West, Adam Wingard David Bruckner and Radio Silence all take turns Directing in this horror.
Thale
Norwegian Folklore from Aleksander L. Nordaas, hopefully as good as Trollhunter.
The Last Man on Earth
Aliens take over earth in this Italian sci-fi film.
Extraterrestrial
Director Nacho Vigalondo (Timecrimes) takes sci-fi somewhere else in this funny film. I saw this at TIFF and recommend catching it.
Robot and Frank
A buddy comedy about an old man and a robot. Directorial debut from Jake Schreier boasting an interesting cast.
Easton's Article
Low budget sci-fi that will hopefully be big on the ideas. First time feature from Tim Connery.
Killer Joe
New film from Director William Friedkin. Exciting times.
Other films I would be inclined to catch are Your Sister's Sister Lynn Shelton's fourth feature (and it has Mark Duplass in), Take this Waltz directed by Sarah Polley, Romancing in Thin Air from eclectic director Johnnie To, Fat Kid Rules the World, God Bless America, Roller Town, Grassroots and Long Night's Journey Into Hell
