‘Benny Loves You’ Trailer: A Stuffed Animal Turns Deadly in This Horror Comedy

Horror movies have a long, time-honored tradition of killer dolls. Chucky is arguably the most famous, but the list goes on and on, from Talking Tina on The Twilight Zone, to the Zuni Doll in Trilogy of Terror, to the ventriloquist dummies of Dead Silence, and beyond. Now we can add Benny to the list. In Benny Loves You, a childhood stuffed animal comes to life and starts looking to kill, with pretty amusing-looking results. In the film, “Jack (Karl Holt), a man desperate to improve his life throws away his beloved childhood plush, Benny.” That turns out to be a big mistake. Watch the Benny Loves You trailer below.

Benny Loves You Trailer

Horror comedy is a very tricky subgenre to pull off. Most of the time, horror comedies fail because they lean too heavily into the “comedy” side and forget to embrace the horror. The most successful horror comedies – An American Werewolf in London, Shaun of the Dead, etc. – strike just the right balance, embracing both scares and laughs. Will Benny Loves You end up succeeding where so many other horror comedies before them? I don’t know, but I have to admit I love this trailer. The imagery of Benny the doll running around out for blood is just too funny to ignore.

In Benny Loves You, “After the accidental death of his parents, Jack’s comfortable lifestyle comes to an end and he must sell his family home. Desperate to improve his life, Jack throws out his childhood belongings including his beloved plush, Benny. It’s a move that has disastrous consequences when Benny springs to life with deadly intentions!”

I don’t know if this is all going to add up to a good movie, but I do think the very sight of Benny the goofy-looking killer doll will be enough to entertain more than a few people (like me). At the very least, this is a well-cut trailer that does a great job selling what kind of movie this is. Good work, Benny Loves You. You’ve sold me on watching this. Written and directed by Karl Holt, Benny Loves You stars Karl Holt, Claire Cartwright, and George Collie. The horror-comedy is coming to select theaters on May 7. After that, it’ll head to On Demand on May 11. And then, finally, it arrives on Blu-ray starting June 8. In addition to the trailer above you can check out a poster below.

These pants are made with the world’s strongest material woven into its fabric – Graphene

There’s a high chance that the Omega pants will outlive the human race. Now I’m not being a pessimist, I’m just stating that these all-purpose pants come with the toughest ever material known to man woven into its fabric. With a lifetime warranty that should last long enough for it to be passed down multiple generations, the Omega pants were built to literally be worn forever, or quite possibly until the end-times… a little too stark? Maybe, but it drives the point home! Designed for practically any activity that requires pants, the Omega pants by Graphene-X come with a 3-layer fabric that isn’t just destruction-proof, it’s stretchable, waterproof, and has the ability to regulate your body’s temperature so you could potentially wear the same pair of pants while rock-climbing in the sun or on a skiing trip to a snow-capped peak. The pants’ fabric as well as its construction together help it juggle its different roles. Styled like a pair of all-purpose pants with removable leg-pieces, ...

A lounge chair you can ‘lean on’

Remember the Ovini Balance Stool from last year? The Sway Chair is the Ovini’s bigger brother with a backrest! Designed to be a lounging chair that has the flexibility of perhaps the beanbag, KI’s Sway Chair comes with a hemispherical base that rests on a freely rotating and swiveling base that has 4 legs. The contact points between the seating area and the base have ball bearings concealed within them that allow you to lean forwards, backwards, or even sideways in the chair, choosing a position that’s comfortable for you. With a simple physical action, you can change the chair from a work-chair to a lounger to lean back and relax in. There’s a certain bit of resistance/friction too, which means the chair retains the position you set it in, rather than swinging willy-nilly. Oh, and this one, unlike the Ovini, also comes with a rather nifty backrest as well as an adjustable foot-stool! Designer: KI Yanko Design https://ift.tt/2y1jNWK September 28, 2018 at 09:02PM

Contemporary Chinese Cinema: Shunji Iwai’s Letters from Shanghai

Contemporary Chinese Cinema is a column devoted to exploring contemporary Chinese-language cinema primarily as it is revealed to us at North American multiplexes. The sneakiest major release of the year is surely the latest from Japanese director Shunji Iwai, whose new movie opens this Friday at a dozen multiplexes around North America courtesy of the distributor China Lion Film. Last Letter is Iwai’s first film made in China, and stars Zhou Xun, who starred in one of last year’s best films, Ann Hui’s Our Time Will Come , which was also distributed here by China Lion. That he would be working in a new country is no surprise: Iwai is one of the more eclectic filmmakers of his generation: having started in TV and video in the early 90s before moving into film, he’s since made documentaries and music videos, science fiction films and anime, epics of modern alienation and ravishingly romantic odes to the wonders of youth and love. His last film, Chang-ok’s Letter , was an hour-long...
