"It's not a big deal." Or is it?! Ewww. There's a hilarious new comedy short going around called Pink Eye, created by the filmmaker Jacob Motz. It's a story of what happens when someone in control loses control - because they're having a bad day with a bad case of Pink Eye. Thanks to our friends at Short of the Week, it's now available online to watch. An alpha female spirals when trying to navigate her challenging calendar while infected by a disgusting case of Pink Eye. Starring Jesse Burgum as Shell, along with Zach Gilford, June Christopher, Jadah Marie, and Constance Parng. Motz explains his inspiration for this short: "I had just read a fantastic short story by Nikolai Gogol called 'The Nose,' which is really absurd satire, and love the way that story poked fun at human nature (about an aristocrat who wakes up one day to discover his nose is missing). I loved an extreme unexpected incident like that to instigate a spiral for a character." 😉 Thanks to Short of the Week for the tip on this ...

"You will find the paragon for me!" Doppelgänger Releasing has unveiled an official trailer for a film called The Paragon, made by New Zealand filmmaker Michael Duignan. This wacky lo-fi sci-fi thriller originally premiered at the 2023 New Zealand Film Festival last year, and is getting a theatrical debut in the US this fall. It was shot over 13 days in Auckland, New Zealand on a budget of around $15,000 in US dollars. That's a considerably tiny budget! Yet this still looks pretty damn good. The victim of a hit and run learns how to be psychic so he can find the car that hit him and take revenge on the driver. Everything converges towards the singularity in Michael Duignan's feature film debut, a "hilarious rift in space-time." Starring Benedict Wall, Florence Noble, Jessica Grace Smith, & Jonny Brugh. Reviews say it "gives its all, embracing its DIY nature to deliver a light and breezy sci-fi comedy, and what it lacks [from the] budget it more than compensates for in low-key charm."

This will debut on NBC's streaming service Peacock later in August. If you were around in the 80s & 90s, he is instantly recognizable.

It suggests the former kid actor who played Arnold Jackson died suspiciously after a tumultuous marriage, money problems, and ongoing bouts of depression. Peacock promises that viewers will get new insight into Coleman’s private world through exclusive interviews with fellow actor Todd Bridges, former managers, his estranged parents and Coleman’s ex-wife.

"We don't trust your God." Agreed - neither do I. An early festival promo trailer has debuted for the indie film titled Transamazonia, that's currently premiering at the 2024 Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland underway this week. This France, Germany, Switzerland, Taiwan, Brazil co-production is set in the Amazon rainforest within Brazil. Rebecca, the daughter of a missionary, was declared a "miracle" after she survived a plane crash as a child, deep in the Amazon jungle. Years later, she has become a miracle healer, sustaining their mission thanks to her local fame and power. But when illegal loggers invade the land belonging to the indigenous people they evangelize, her father maneuvers them into the epicenter of this escalating conflict. The film stars Helena Zengel as Rebecca, Jeremy Xido, Joao Vitor Xavante, Pira Assurini, Hama Vieira, and Sabine Timoteo.
