HAIL – Amiel Courtin-Wilson
Looking forward to checking this out. It’s Amiel’s first narrative feature and it seems as powerful as his doc work. Plus the lead is a former convict turned actor.

Putty Hill a truly indie gem
Putty Hill is an interesting film that is intimate and packs an emotional punch. The fact that it is mainly non-actors is even more amazing. It has a wonderful feeling of being a doc but at the same time has a fluid narrative flow. It just opened this past weekend in NYC and will be rolling out to other cities soon.

Bioshock 2 trailer
Very much looking forward to the release of Bioshock 2 which comes out this week. I’d love to get my hands on the game bible that I’ve heard rumors about – Bioshock is a rich game world while at the same time haunting, beautiful and bizzare.

The Tingler (1955) William Castle
I received a mention in a New York Times article entitled Talking About a Revolution (for a Digital Age) The article also references William Castle and the experiences he created around his work. Castle was an inspiration for some of the Cinema ARG experiences I did around my last film Head Trauma. DIY and the concept of transmedia were popular topics at Sundance this year and both have been popping up more and more in the press. Here’s a trailer from 1955 where Castle – always the showman – is plugging the experience around his newest film The Tingler.

THE TENANT (1976) Roman Polanski
Strong atmosphere, clever pacing and just some plain old WTF makes this film an interesting and crazy viewing.

DISTRICT 9 (2009) Neil Blomkamp
What caught my attention was the combo of doc feel mixed with sci-fi. Love the concept of an alen containment camp.
