We like a good indie horror film as much as the next geek. And this one, called Frankenstein’s Army, looks to fit the bill.

Here’s the story:

In the waning days of World War II, a battalion of Russian soldiers find themselves lost in enemy territory. Stumbling upon a village decimated by an unseen terror, they discover that a mad scientist (Hellboy’s Karel Roden) conducts experiments to fuse flesh and steel, creating an unstoppable army of undead soldiers. Leaderless and faced with dissention amongst their dwindling ranks, they must find the courage to face down an altogether new menace – or die trying.

So far, so good, right? To get you even more interested, we’ve got a redband trailer for Frankenstein’s Army to share with you today. And yes, there’s a bit of blood and gore, so fair warning.

The movie hits theaters and on-demand on July 26. Check out the trailer after the break. Oh, by clicking though you certify you are 18 years of age or older.

When a movie has been described as “Scarface meets Britney Spears” one must at least pay some attention to it. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that the movie in question, Harmony Korine’s Spring Breakers, also features bikini-clad hotties (in the forms of Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez, Ashley Benson, and Rachel Korine) wielding firearms.

Plus, it also has James Franco, and his shiny grill, playing a character that reminds us a lot of Gary Oldman’s Drexl Spivey in True Romance. Put all that together and we’re not a hundred percent sure what it means.

One thing we know it does mean, though, is we’re very interested in checking out the full movie. Until then, take a look at the brand new redband trailer after the break.

Look for Spring Breakers to hit limited theaters on March 15th and then go wider on March 22nd.

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. If that’s true, George Romero must feel pretty damn flattered most of the time — especially if he ever sees the upcoming zombie horror flick Mimesis.

Yeah, we were curious too. Here’s some scoop on Mimesis, directly from the official press release.

“A group of horror fans find themselves unwilling participants in a living nightmare that pays homage to a classic horror film. Seven complete strangers whose only common link is a love for classic era horror films are invited to attend an exclusive “horror fan” party at a remote farm. But as the sun sets, these strangers soon find themselves within a real life version of the 1968 George Romero cult horror classic Night of the Living Dead.”

There’s a new redband trailer for Mimesis and we’ve got it for you right now. After the break, of course. We think it looks pretty interesting, especially for an indie effort. What say you?

Since the early 90s, babysitter films have become a lost art. Films like Adventures in Babysitting, Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead, and several others with the occupation in the title have faded away into 80s obscurity. Until now.

The ever mass-changing Jonah Hill has got a brand new movie to promote, in which he’s finally the lead, and he’s the world’s worst babysitter. Here’s the premise:

A comedy about a college student on suspension who is coaxed into babysitting the kids next door, though he is fully unprepared for the wild night ahead of him.

The beauty is in its simplicity, really. Directed by Eastbound and Down creator David Gordon Green, the film will definitely raise a few flags in terms of “child endangerment”, but that may just work in its favor.

Check out the full red band trailer after the jump, and catch Hill in The Sitter on December 9th.

The title is a bit of a mouthful, the premise is something we’ve seen this year, and there aren’t any recognizable names in the film, yet I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell is looking more and more like the sleeper comedy of the year. Based on what one could only call a “testimony” by writer Tucker Max about his exploits during his best friend’s bachelor party, this movie may just get that title.

Matt Czuchry gets the inglorious honor of playing the main character, Tucker Max, as a loudmouth, womanizing player — which pretty much describes Max. Czuchry is probably best known for his role as Logan Huntzberger, the rebel boyfriend on Gilmore Girls, which he played for five years. Alongside Matt is Jesse Bradford, who is probably best known for his roles in films such as Hackers, Bring it On and Swimf@n.

For now, check out the brand new red band trailer after the jump. But be forewarned: There’s a reason why it’s a red band trailer and not a green band trailer. It’s definitely NSFW. I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell hits theaters September 25.

Most people that go to see District 9 this weekend will get to see Legion’s far less violent green band trailer. But recently released online was the far more interesting “Red Band” preview of the post-apocalyptic action-thriller — courtesy of the folks at Trailer Addict.

The film’s premise, which is quite interesting, goes something like this: “When God loses faith in Mankind, he sends his legion of angels to bring on the Apocalypse. Humanity’s only hope lies in a group of strangers trapped in a desert diner and the Archangel Michael (played by Paul Bettany).

The film looks to be something like Constantine meets Demon Knight, which is a pretty cool idea. Legion hits theaters on January 22, 2010.

Check out the probably NSFW trailer after the jump.

We here at The Flickcast have been pretty vocal about our love of all things zombie, so it only makes sense for us to swoon over new footage of this Fall’s horror comedy Zombieland starring Jessie Eisenberg and Woody Harrelson. Now hitting the web is a new swear-tastic “Redband” trailer with slightly more footage.

Written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, (who’s claim-to-fame is creating the reality-tv parody The Joe Shmoe Show) and directed by Ruben Fleischer (who directed 3 episodes of The Jimmy Kimmel Show), the film focuses on two men who have found a way to survive a world overrun by zombies. Check out the new trailer after the jump, which has slightly more footage, and much more zombie-goodness.

The film stars Jesse Eisenberg (Adventureland), Woody Harrelson, Emma Stone’s (Superbad) and Abigail Breslin’s (Little Miss Sunshine) and is said to be “Hollywood’s answer to Shaun of the Dead”, but will probably shake that stereotype once we finally see it on the big screen October 9th.

Check out all the “Redband” zombie action after the jump.
