Movie Media: Stone Devil Hill, You Kill Me, The Simpsons, 3:10 to Yuma, The Dark is Rising, The Bourne Ultimatum, Captivity, Talk to Me
Published June 29, 2007
Welcome to the latest edition of Movie Media, where you will find trailers and posters that caught my eye during the week. Some are new, some aren't, you will have to look and make up your own mind. If there is a poster or trailer you think I should check out, be sure to let me know, and I will see what I can do. This week has trailers for a new western, a new trailer for an upcoming feature, a friend's music video, and a couple of posters.
Trailer: You Kill Me
I know this came out in limited release last weekend, but it is only now that I got to take a peek at the trailer. It looks like it is going to be a blast. It is the story of an alcoholic hit man in Buffalo, whose family sends him off to San Francisco to get into AA and straighten himself up. While there, he finds old habits die hard while working in a mortuary, finding a sponsor, and love in the face of the relative of a deceased. Ben Kingsley stars, along with Tea Leoni and Luke Wilson. Take a look:

Music Video: Stone Devil Hill's "Neverchange"
A number of years ago, I met and became fast friends with a guy named Steve. The reason I met him was I happened to congratulate him on a good show, he was playing bass for a band called 8x10. We talked music for awhile, and found we had much in common. Well, a couple years later, 8x10 is no more and a new band has arisen from its ashes, a better band, with a load of new songs. This new band is called Stone Devil Hill, and while their music is not forging any new ground, it is solid hard rock. They recently made an appearance on a local cable access show, performing a set of new music; here is the video to one of those tracks. It is a YouTube video, so it is heavily compressed, but it does give you a good idea of their music.
Also, be sure to check them out on MySpace.
Trailer: The Simpsons
As mediocre as the show has been for years, with few moments of inspired lunacy, each trailer looks better and better. This third incarnation is the best yet, and I am actually looking forward to checking this out on the big screen. From Bart's french fry to Spider-Pig, from the threatened destruction of Springfield to fishing with bug zappers, this looks like it could be fun.
Trailer: Captivity
This movie sparked some controversy earlier this year when After Dark decided to put up some billboards around LA that did not receive approval from the MPAA, and wound up receiving some complaints about them. Anyway, they survived that free publicity/PR snafu and the film is mere weeks away from release. The trailer is out, and actually doesn't look half bad, so long as you like films in the vein of Saw and Hostel. It is the story of a young woman (Elisha Cuthbert) who is kidnapped and tortured. It looks different in that the trailer shows a strong focus on a singular victim, more so than in the other films. Anyway, take a look:
