“Now, whatever you saw or did. Is no longer my concern. But let’s be clear. It won’t end well.”

Assault on Precinct 13 meets American History X in Green Room, the latest nerve-shattering cinematic experience from writer-director Jeremy Saulnier (Blue Ruin). This brilliantly crafted bloodbath is the very definition of “splatterpunk.”

The Ain’t Rights, a hardcore punk band comprised of singer Tiger (Callum Turner), guitarist Sam (Alia Shawkat), bassist Pat (Anton Yelchin), and drummer Reece (Joe Cole), are touring the Pacific Northwest, siphoning gas to make it from one shitty gig to another.

Reshoots are not out of the ordinary for any film that has completed principal photography. But when it takes place four months before the release of a film, then some might question why it is being done so late. The Justin Lin-directed Star Trek Beyond is about to go into reshoots, almost four months before the film’s release. But there may be a slight upside to this, depending on how you look at it of course.

Also, it looks like 24 actress Shohreh Aghdashloo will now be joining the cast. More on the story below.

The official red band trailer has been released for Green Room, a new horror thriller from the writer and director of the excellent 2013 film Blue Ruin, Jeremy Saulnier.

The movie follows a punk rock band who find themselves hunted by a group of neo-Nazis after they witness a horrifically violent act at a secluded venue. It stars Anton Yelchin, Imogen Poots, Alia Shawkat, Callum Turner, Mark Webber, and geek god Patrick Stewart working in evil mode.

Paramount Pictures has released the first trailer for Justin Lin‘s (Fast and Furious 6) Star Trek Beyond starring Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoe Saldana, Simon Pegg, Karl Urban, John Cho, and Anton Yelchin. Newcomers include the talents of Joe Taslim (The Raid, Fast and Furious 6), Sofia Boutella (Kingsman: The Secret Service and the upcoming Mummy reboot), and Idris Elba (Pacific Rim, Beasts of No Nation).

While the actual trailer was scheduled for a theatrical debut this Friday alongside showings of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, fans of the franchise have a head start and don’t have to worry about waiting until Friday. Check out the first trailer for the film below.

Remember when that video was released with Star Wars: The Force Awakens director J.J. Abrams standing in front of a full-size X-wing to announce a contest for charity in which the winner would score a walk-on role in the movie? Well, those of you who prefer the Star Trek universe now have the same opportunity.

It’s been announced that a similar contest is now live that will lead to someone winning a walk-on role in the upcoming Star Trek Beyond, the rebooted movie franchise’s trilogy-maker. Better yet, those who don’t win the big prize can still win a set visit. The contest is done in a crowdfunding style, where you obtain entries in the contest by purchasing perks, which is a big plus. Instead of blindly throwing $10 in and hoping you win, $10 gets you a digital badge and 100 chances to win. $50 gets you a digital thank you video from the cast and crew of the movie and 500 entries. $10,000 to $15,000 gets you props from the three most recent Trek movies and 100,000 to 150,000 entries. But good luck competing with the person who drops $100,000 for a replica captain’s chair and 1,000,000 entries.

You can get all the details about the contest below, and also watch a video of the cast (Chris Pine, Simon Pegg, Zoe Saldana, John Cho, Zachary Quinto, Karl Urban, Anton Yelchin, and newcomer Idris Elba) announcing the contest, which, by the way, ends with a little dance party.
