Official Red Band Trailer for R-Rated Animated French Movie 'MFKZ'

MFKZ Trailer

"There's no way you two can run forever." GKids has debuted a gnarly red band trailer for an animated movie from France titled MFKZ, made by Shôjirô Nishimi & Guillaume Renard, based on Renard's comic book series. The title is an abbreviation because the actual French title is Mutafukaz, but you can't put that out in the US. The film is described as a "dark but stunningly animated sci-fi vision that mixes anime, film noir, and Lucha Libre in an orgy of video game-inspired mayhem." The feature is a collaboration between French comic artist Guillaume "RUN" Renard and the "ultra-hip" Japanese animation house Studio 4°C, of Tekkonkinkreet, Genius Party, and Mind Game. The new English release features the voices of Michael Chiklis, Giancarlo Esposito, Jorge Gutierrez, Dascha Polanco, RZA, Vince Staples, and Danny Trejo. This actually looks crazy cool, something different. And good to see another R-rated animated movie.

Here's the new red band trailer for Shôjirô Nishimi & Guillaume Renard's MFKZ, from GKids' YouTube:

And here's the original green band trailer + teaser trailer for Renard's MFKZ movie, also from YouTube:

MFKZ Movie Poster

The film centers on young Angelino and his skull-and-flame pal Vinz, who live in a seedy tenement in an LA-inspired dystopian metropolis – a burnt-out, gang and cockroach-ridden neo-urban hell. Following a scooter accident Angelino starts experiencing migraines and strange hallucinations, as well as fits of rage-inspired superpowers, as he slowly awakens to the truth of his origins: he is half human and half Macho, a supernatural alien race that is bent on taking over the planet. MFKZ, also known as Mutafukaz, is directed by French comic artist Guillaume "Run" Renard and Japanese animator Shojiro Nishimi, making his directorial debut after work on Tekkonkinkreet and Batman: Gotham Knight. This premiered at the Annecy and London Film Festivals last year, and already opened earlier this summer in France in May. GKids will release MFKZ in select theaters for two nights only starting on October 11th this fall, followed by VOD/Blu-ray release. For more info + tickets, visit the official website. Thoughts?

‘Fear Street’ Spoiler Review: Netflix’s Horror Trilogy Mines Nostalgia While Looking to the Future

Netflix’s Fear Street trilogy, a three-week spree of crimes against innocent Shadysiders, ended on Friday. It’s possibly the biggest slasher-movie event since the 2018 Halloween broke box-office records for its franchise and production company. There have been other slasher flicks since then; the bloody body-swap Freaky comes to mind as one genre torch-bearer, seen mostly on VOD late last year. However, with its staggered release pattern — instant summer sequels, now available to stream! —  Fear Street  has built up a sustained momentum this month that goes unmatched by other recent entries in the genre. We took a non-spoiler look at all three  Fear Street films as they launched:  Part One: 1994  on July 2,  Part Two: 1978  on July 9, and Part Three: 1666  on July 16. Now, as the dust settles in the town of Shadyside, we’re ready to dive into the deep end with a spoiler-filled look at the plot twists, character deaths, and buried themes of the whole decade-hopping trilogy.

Yes, ‘Eternals’ Will Explain Why These Superheroes Didn’t Help Out During ‘Avengers: Endgame’

Eternals  may become the latest example of the many balancing acts that any shared universe will inevitably be asked to navigate. After all, constructing a timeline with a lived-in sense of history must stand up to scrutiny. While fans should generally approach movies with the benefit of the doubt (these are, after all, fictional works made up by human beings rather than an actual historical retelling), creators tend to obsess over these sorts of details. That’s why Marvel producers Nate Moore and Kevin Feige offer reassurances that there’s a very good canonical reason the Eternals didn’t bother showing up to help Captain America fight Thanos. Entertainment Weekly  has the lowdown on all aspects of Eternals , from director Chloe Zhao’s  influences to introductions for each of the main heroes. There’s also an interesting nugget included in the cover story about the movie’s place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Described as “…largely a standalone story, focusing specifically on th
