"And where would we find all those giant turtles?" An official trailer has debuted for an indie comedy titled The Secret Society For Slow Romance, the latest from Brooklyn-based filmmaker Sujewa Ekanayake who is very active on Twitter talking about indie filmmaking. Set for release next spring and originally made during the 2020 pandemic summer, The Secret Society For Slow Romance is an indie dating-in-nyc story that's not really about romance, but it sort of is. Two extraordinary people go on several dates in New York City and plan a project that may change the world for the better - when they discover a way to end poverty worldwide. Described as "a comedy inspired by My Dinner with Andre, Before Sunrise, and Werewolf Ninja Philosopher." The film stars Alia Lorae and Sujewa Ekanayake as the couple. With music by Kevin MacLeod. This looks like a homemade adventure through NYC with plenty of fun conversations.

The Turnpike Killer is the latest bloody valentine to VHS-distributed horror films from the ‘80s.
The collector’s edition is a DVD/VHS combo packaged inside a cleverly designed “big box” complete with retro artwork. The VHS tape and box are fun promotional materials and will certainly speak to a segment of the horror audience mesmerized by such things. My horror nostalgia is tied directly to the the ‘70s, when opening up a paper on Friday morning was the equivalent of perusing the horror section of the local mom-and-pop video store. Though I can understand the enthusiasm of the VHS fans, I don’t share the affection. Video was an ugly medium that, unlike vinyl records, has not improved with age.
This new fad of celebrating poor-quality dupes of genre films,...
