Movie Media: Mother of Tears, The Dark Knight, Promotion, Dance of the Dead, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Beverly Hills Chihuahua and More
Published May 23, 2008
Welcome back to the Movie Media column, featuring trailers, posters, and clips for upcoming films. Some are nice and fresh and some aren't. However, they all have something in common: for better or worse, they all caught my attention. If there is a poster or trailer you think I should check out, be sure to let me know.
This week's movie goodies include posters (lots this week), stills (in some cases a ton), and trailers for a few upcoming summer hits, indie flicks, a DVD release, one surefire stinker, and more!
Mother of Tears - Poster, Stills, Trailer
Dario Argento has made great films, bad films, and every type of film in between. Hopefully this leans towards the better end of the spectrum. In my movie-watching life I have not seen nearly enough of them, although I have seen Suspiria and that, my friends, is a classic. As for Mother of Tears, it stars Dario's daughter, Asia, and is supposed to be the third in a trilogy that began with Suspiria and continued with Inferno. The story concerns an urn that is unearthed, inadvertently awakening a powerful witch, known as the Mother of Tears. This witch hunts for Sarah (Asia Argento), whose mother was a powerful white witch. The trailer looks pretty good, there are a ton of stills (some are decidedly not safe for work), and the poster.
