"This is your dream! You have to go for it, do you hear me...?" Vue Cinemas has unveiled an official trailer for an indie stop-motion animated film titled Strike, made by a small studio in the UK and being released next month. As pointed out on Twitter, "the title refers to both soccer and mining - you don't get much more British than that." Strike is about a young mole from the town of Diggington who dreams of becoming a soccer player (a "footballer" in the UK) but his big challenge is telling his father. "How can he tell his dad he does not want to work at the mine, it will break his heart... This mole with a goal... should he tell?" Strike stars the voices of Lizzie Waterworth, Ken Stott, Alex Kelly, Naomi McDonald, Tom Turner, Dave Mounfield, and Beth Chalmers. This looks cute, and it's great to...

An English home-invasion thriller of sorts that goes off the rails early and hard, “Caught” is quasi-horror, or science-fiction, though it’s too pretentiously ambiguous about what’s really going on for one to be quite sure. Nonetheless, Jamie Patterson’s film is almost an instant camp classic for its ridiculous villains and poker-faced silliness, the major caveat being that it’s so damn yakkety. Despite mysteriously having won a critic’s prize at Fantasporto, this is likely to enthrall very few Stateside genre fans in its simultaneous Cinedigm release to theaters, on-demand and digital HD on March 30.

They’re thinking through their next professional move — a proposed exposé of apparent nearby covert military operations,...

"We never said we would leave." Cinedigm has released a trailer for a freaky horror film titled Caught, from director Jamie Patterson. The film about alien visitors was shot in East Sussex, UK where aliens were sighted in 1967. While on an afternoon walk, two small-town reporters notice a military camp going up on a hilltop. Trying to figure out the truth, they answer their door when two unusual strangers come knocking and find themselves held hostage in their own home. Caught stars Mickey Sumner, Cian Barry, April Pearson, Ruben Crow, Dave Mounfield, and Aaron Davis. This feels like a pretty cool throwback to "Twilight Zone", where the aliens look like regular people, though there's something very strange. Check it. Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for Jamie Patterson's Caught, direct from YouTube: A journalist couple invite two strangers into their idyllic village home after noticing strange military activity nearby,...

The world's first amphibious ice cream van has made its way down the Thames this week to the surprise of sunseekers. The special vehicle was created to promote awareness of how the traditional ice cream van trade is struggling in the modern era. The 'Hms Flake 99' launched in Blackpool, before sailing down the London river to mark National Ice Cream Day. "I'm the captain of a floating ice cream van.
