Opens: January 1st 2010
Cast: Renée Zellweger, Jodelle Ferland, Ian McShane, Bradley Cooper, Kerry O'Malley
Director: Christian Alvart
Summary: A family services social worker thinks she has seen it all until she meets her newest, most mysterious case - a troubled 10-year old girl whose parents try to kill her. The social worker decides to take her in herself until the right foster family comes along.
Analysis: Despite the presence of promising German director Christian Alvart ("Pandorum"), 'Case' has sat on a shelf since late 2006 and is finally being quietly shuffled out this year for one very good reason - it stinks. Having opened in Australia a few months back, reviewers utterly savaged the film as both incredibly dumb and utterly ludicrous. Lead star Renee Zellweger also scored personal criticism to a level rarely seen in film reviews outside of comments about Nicole Kidman's 'more alien than the »

It's no secret that Icons Of Fright has had a long history with filmmaker Paul Solet and his movie Grace. We've been firm supporters of this talented up and coming writer & director since we first met him at a Fangoria Weekend Of Horrors show back in 2005 and we were there to help out when the time came for him to make his short film version of Grace back in 2006. Since then (as the story goes), the fine gents over at Ariescope stepped in and helped get the feature length film made. With Grace: "The Movie" now out & available everywhere on DVD and Blu-Ray, we thought it'd be fun to go back and look at the original 6 minute short film that started it all. Not only that but we also put together a second version of the Grace short film with a commentary track by writer/director Paul Solet and »

By Eric D. Snider (reprint from Sundance Film Festival 2009)
Among the items on the prop list for Grace are: one (1) baby bottle filled with blood and one (1) dead baby. Now that you know that, a review might be superfluous -- you already know whether or not you want to see this movie.
If you are the sort of person who might enjoy an effed-up gore-fest about a woman who delivers an undead baby, you can rest assured that Grace lives up to its potential. It's at least as effed-up as you'd expect, and first-time writer/director Paul Solet (expanding on his 2006 short) proves himself adept both as a visual storyteller and as a guy who can make you crap your pants.
Jordan Ladd stars as Madeline Matheson, a young woman who has finally, after years of trying, conceived a child with her dull husband, Michael (Stephen Park). Madeline's intrusive mother-in-law, »

With all of the "fainting" hype, you'll all soon be able to find out for yourselves if these people are as big of pussies as you think they are when Anchor Bay releases Grace this fall. While we await on official release plans, Anchor Bay has given horror fans new footage in the "official trailer", as opposed to the earlier festival teasers that have already found their way online. Dig on it inside. Grace revolves around Madeline Matheson, an eight months pregnant woman who is determined to deliver her unborn child, Grace, naturally. When an accident leaves Grace dead inside her, Madeline insists on carrying the baby to term. Weeks later, when Madeline delivers naturally, the child miraculously returns to life... Directed by Paul Solet, it stars Jordan Ladd, Samantha Ferris, Gabrielle Rose, Serge Houde, Stephen Park and Malcolm Stewart. »

Duncan Jones comes out blazing with his directorial debut, Moon. Set in the near future, earth's energy needs have been solved by extracting Helium Three from moon rocks. This is the job of one man, Sam Bell (the always fantastic Sam Rockwell), serving a three year contract running the extraction machines. His only company is a Hal-like computer, Gerty (voiced by Kevin Spacey). Sam is a mere two weeks from going home when an accident warps his reality. He wakes up from the accident to find a clone of himself on the station. This discovery leads Sam to question his sanity, job, and the very nature of his existence.
Jones squeezes every penny out of his five million dollar budget. Daringly original, the plot is matched by superb visual effects, musical score, and performance from Sam Rockwell. Duncan Jones, who's initial claim to fame is that of David Bowie's son, »

Four clips from Duncan Jones’ “Moon” have arrived to alleviate your boring, 3-year stint on the moon. What, you’re not doing a 3-year stint on the moon like the hero of “Moon”? Lucky you, because it doesn’t sound like good things are in store for our hero, and you can catch it in theaters June 12. If there’s one thing you instantly get from these clips is that this is one moody picture. That, and man, Kevin Spacey’s voice is really creepy. Astronaut Sam Bell has a quintessentially personal encounter toward the end of his three-year stint on the Moon, where he, working alongside his computer, Gerty, sends back to Earth parcels of a resource that has helped diminish our planet’s power problems. Starring Matt Berry, Robin Chalk, Dominique McElligott, Sam Rockwell, Kaya Scodelario, Kevin Spacey, Malcolm Stewart, and Benedict Wong. Written and directed by Duncan Jones. »

Sure her baby died while she was pregnant, but that doesn’t mean she can’t still give birth to it. Right? That’s the premise of Paul Solet’s creepy as hell horror movie “Grace”, which stars Jordan Ladd (”Cabin Fever”) as a very disturbed lass who gives birth to her dead baby. Yes, I have no idea how that works, too, and for good reason. It’s all the devil’s doing! It’s the devil I tell ya! Soon, poor Jordan Ladd discovers that her little tyke is very picky when it comes to his food. Very, very picky. Chilling, hair-raising red band trailer for “Grace” below. Madeline Matheson is eight months pregnant and determined to deliver her unborn child, Grace, naturally. When an accident leaves Grace dead inside her, Madeline insists on carrying the baby’s corpse to term. Weeks later, when Madeline delivers, the baby miraculously returns to life… »

FearNET has debuted the new "red-band" trailer for Paul Solet's debut feature Grace.(Watch it below!) This was actually the clip that premiered at last month's La Fango show (report Here). Grace is a film we've been covering here at Icons since it's inception & this trailer is a pretty good indication as to why we (along with most other horror outlets) have been giving it so much attention. See for yourself:

If you get seasick easily, or are prone to suffering from motion sickness, then I would advise not clicking on to see the poster for Duncan Jones’ “Moon”, starring Sam Rockwell as an astronaut on the moon who is about to finish up his 3-year contract for a private company, when he starts to see very strange things — like himself, dying. Sam ends up saving himself, which is even weirder. “Moon” stars Sam Rockwell as the astronaught and Kevin Spacey as the voice of the base’s computer, which may or may not be trying to kill Sam. You know, self-aware machines are so dependable until they start plotting against you. Also starring Kaya Scodelario, Matt Berry, Dominique McElligott, Malcolm Stewart, Benedict Wong, and Robin Chalk. The film is scheduled for September 3. And in case you missed it, the “Moon” trailer was released to the masses here. Update: New, corrected poster. »
