Written and Directed by Vincenzo Natali (Cube) and produced by Guillermo del Toro, has been on my radar for quite some time. Finally some original Science Fiction and hopefully compelling ideas will be in the theaters. I need a break from sequels and remakes.

The Brothers Bloom
Rating: 
Directed By: Rian Johnson
Starring: Adrien Brody, Mark Ruffalo, Rachel Weisz, Rinko Kikuchi
Plot:
All their lives, brothers Stephen (Mark Ruffalo) and Bloom (Adrien Brody) have perfected the fine art of the con. Now they’re ready for one last spectacular score – luring Penelope (Rachel Weisz), an eccentric heiress, into an elaborate scheme that takes them around the world.
Review:
While “cookie cutter” stories are littering Hollywood and the current box office, many original and memorable movies are being tossed into minimal theatrical releases and horribly thought out DVD/Blu Ray releases. Case in point: if you want to own the wonderfully original and quirky film The Brothers Bloom, you’ll have to either steal it from a local video rental establishment (not recommended!), or buy it from our Canadian neighbors (I chose the latter). Or, just wait until January for the U. S. release and rent it numerous times until then. Either way, The Brothers Bloom is a film that needs to be seen.

I really can’t wait for Vincenzo Natali’s film Splice, starring Adrien Brody, Sarah Polley, Delphine Chaneac, David Hewlett, and Brandon McGibbon. The film is also produced by creature genious Guillermo del Toro.
No news yet on U.S. Disribution as the Movie Studio has experienced some financial problems. I hope this film comes out sooner rather than later!
Plot Synopsis:
Splice tells the tale of Elsa and Clive, two young rebellious scientists who defy legal and ethical boundaries and forge ahead with a dangerous experiment: splicing together human and animal DNA to create a new organism. Named Dren, the creature rapidly develops from a deformed female infant into a beautiful but dangerous winged human-chimera, who forges a bond with both of her creators – only to have that bond turn deadly.

Guillermo del Toro is the man. Recently I found out he’s producing a really interesting sounding Science Fiction film called Splice . Kind of an Alien meets Frankenstein type story, but these images turned my head in a huge way.
Directed by Vincenzo Natali (Cube) and starring Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley, Splice is the story of two rogue scientists who decide to take genetic splicing to the next level. Basically, all hell then breaks loose.
