The Killer Inside Me Trailer: Casey Affleck Has Issues

8 hours ago | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

If you.ve got no intention of seeing Michael Winterbottom.s The Killer Inside Me, then this video is for you. Afm released this nearly 6-minute long promo trailer for the flick starring Casey Affleck, Jessica Alba, Kate Hudson and Bill Pullman. They call this a trailer? It needs to be branded with a major spoiler alert warning! The movie is based on Jim Thompson.s 1952 novel of the same name. It.s about a deputy sheriff named Lou Ford (Affleck), who seems like a typical man of the law, but beneath the uniform is actually a violent sociopath. There.s no point in giving you any additional details because the promo is a total tell-all. On the acting front, I.m psyched to see Affleck in his first starring role since Gone Baby Gone. As for Hudson and Alba, their reputations are plunging but their talent still has to »

New Extended Trailer for ‘The Killer Inside Me’

6 November 2009 2:30 PM, PST | The Flickcast | See recent The Flickcast news »

Casey Affleck has been known to take some pretty intense roles as of late. His first being the role of Robert Ford in The Assassination of Jesse James and then his work on his brother’s project, Gone Baby Gone. It looks like Affleck is going to step it up once again as Sheriff Lou Ford in the ultra-violent The Killer Inside Me.

The film is based on the novel by Jim Thompson, who also wrote the novels films such as The Grifters and The Getaway were adapted from. The original 1976 film starred Stacey Keach, who took on the role that Affleck is now running with.

The extended trailer shows off some of the intense moments (hopefully not all) from the film, such as some raunchy aggressive sex with both Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson, as well as a violent murder of one of them. This may just be the »

Lmao! Jessica Alba Is a Funny Friggin' Focker

6 November 2009 1:33 PM, PST | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Just because Jessica Alba isn't the most smiley, happy-go-lucky starlet in Hollywood that doesn't mean she's not a load of fun. Teri Polo, one of Alba's costars in the upcoming Little Fockers, insists Ms. Alba loves a good laugh… "She loves to be funny," Polo told us at last night's BAFTA/La Britannia Awards. "I also think she's a very shy person who perhaps people perceive as a certain way…We get along just great." So why does she get a rap for being a sourpuss? Polo explained... "I think some people have a certain preconception and are intimidated and don't approach them properly," Polo said. "So then why would that person come... »

Straight out of the American Film Market comes this almost 6 minute long trailer for Michael Winterbottom's upcoming The Killer Inside Me.

Kate Hudson, Simon Baker, Jessica Alba, Ned Beatty and Bill Pullman also star. The film is an adaptation of the classic book by Jim Thompson, who also wrote the book that Stanley Kubrick's The Killing was based on »

Michael Winterbottom’s The Killer Inside Me Trailer Starring Casey Affleck

6 November 2009 11:34 AM, PST | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »

I'm not always eager to post promo and sales trailers for movies when they find their way online because they're usually too long, rough around the edges, and quick to be pulled off the web anyway. They're not intended for the general public, and shouldn't really be judged as such. In this case, however, we've got our first look at what appears to be a very promising flick, and with all the talent involved I simply couldn't help posting about it. Michael Winterbottom's most recent film Genova didn't get a ton of attention at Tiff last year, but his previous two films, A Mighty Heart and The Road to Guantanamo both made my top 10 lists in their respective years. This time around he's teaming up with Casey Affleck, who is riding a wave of critical acclaim from outstanding performances in Gone Baby Bone and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, »

'The Killer Inside Me' Unleashes Extended Promo Trailer

5 November 2009 8:54 PM, PST | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »

An extended look at "The Killer Inside Me" has come out in the form of a promo trailer. Almost six minutes in running time, the sneak peek unravels what this drama thriller is all about and gives out a look at Casey Affleck, Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson in characters. Some footage in the trailer are quite Nsfw.

In the movie set in the 1950s, Affleck stars as Lou Ford, a West Texas deputy sheriff who spirals downward. Starting as a bored small-town cop, he slowly turns into a ruthless, sociopathic murderer trying to cement his innocence when the evidence looks suspicious. Alba and Hudson, in the meantime, portray a prostitute and Lou's girlfriend respectively.

"The Killer Inside Me" is based on Jim Thompson's 1952 novel which is described as "one of the most blistering and uncompromising crime novels ever written." Michael Winterbottom, the director of "A Mighty Heart", takes on the helming part, »

A Revealing 6-Minute Promo Trailer for The Killer Inside Me

5 November 2009 7:37 PM, PST | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »

Not entirely sure where this 6-minute promo trailer for Michael Winterbottom’s “The Killer Inside Me” came from, but it sure spoils a lot of the movie, which is why I’m tagging this as a Spoiler Post. You have been warned. The film stars Casey Affleck as a small town Texas lawman who decides to shack up with a prostitute played by Jessica Alba, while keeping Kate Hudson on the side. Nice gig if you can get it. Meanwhile, our soft-spoken lawman starts to slowly slip down the homicidal slope, and it’s up to Simon Baker to stop him. Again, the video reveals quite a bit, so steer clear unless you absolutely need to watch it. »

Weird Trailer for Casey Affleck's 'Killer Inside Me'

5 November 2009 6:38 PM, PST | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »

I read The Killer Inside Me about 25 years ago, and in general I'm an admirer of the work of pulp novelist Jim Thompson. His most recognized works are probably that title, The Killing (later turned into an early Kubrick film), The Getaway, and The Grifters, released as a film over 10 years after his death. I heard about him while growing up in Oklahoma, because that's where he was from.

The Killer Inside Me is a whale of a book. I wouldn't say it's a must-read, but it's tougher than a bus station corndog. It's been turned into a movie before, and a new version was filmed this summer mostly in Oklahoma, even though Thomspson's book is set in Texas. Casey Affleck plays the sociopathic lawman Lou Ford, and you'll see what I mean when you watch this promo trailer.

According to The Playlist, this is very likely what's being used »

Link Party: Fergie Tells Cosmo Josh Duhamel Is Awesome

• Sorta bad timing for Cosmopolitan's December cover featuring Fergie talking about how great Josh Duhamel is. She says he loved when she put on weight and he had "extra meat to grab." • Rihanna picked a good day to speak out about domestic violence. Just today, this trailer featuring Casey Affleck beating Jessica Alba popped up and then Marilyn Manson released a music video of him attacking an Evan Rachel Wood look-a-like. Both are Nsfw and disgusting. • Continuing on with what is apparently Domestic Abuse Awareness Day, Chris Brown is confused why some people "basically want me in jail." • Sarah Jessica Parker tells Elle, "I love the... »

Extended Promo Trailer for The Killer Inside Me

Got to hand it to Casey Affleck. The guy is one of those true actors that can tackle just about everything. After disturbing us in The Assassination of Jesse James, he is back again with another dark drama, The Killer Inside Me. But this time he gets to bang Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson. Lucky guy!

Wait, wait, he kills one of them? Er, not so lucky.

The Killer Inside Me Promo Trailer

The Killer Inside Me. The film has Affleck playing (if you can believe it) Lou Ford -- a relative of Robert Ford? -- a West Texas deputy who's not only a sexual beast, but a psychotic killer. Yikes! »

Promo Trailer for Winterbottom's 'The Killer Inside Me'

5 November 2009 1:18 PM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

Thanks to The Playlist we have been made aware of a promotional trailer for Michael Winterbottom's The Killer Inside Me based on the Jim Thompson novel and starring Casey Affleck, Simon Baker, Kate Hudson, Jessica Alba, Elias Koteas, Bill Pullman and Ned Beatty.

Thompson, as many of you may already know co-wrote Stanley Kubrick's killer heist flick The Killing, which was part of my list of top ten heist films back in early 2008. This also isn't the first time "The Killer Inside Me" has been adapted for a feature film as Burt Kennedy directed a version in 1976 starring Stacy Keach and Susan Tyrrell.

The story centers on a West Texas sheriff (Affleck) and his downward spiral from a boring small-town cop into a ruthless, sociopathic murderer. The cast also includes Jessica Alba as a prostitute and Kate Hudson as the sheriff's schoolteacher girlfriend. Baker plays a county attorney »

The Killer Inside Me Sales Trailer: Michael Winterbottom Does Sex and Violence and Desperation

5 November 2009 1:00 PM, PST | Slash Film | See recent Slash Film news »

I've really been looking forward to footage from Michael Winterbottom's adaptation of the Jim Thompson novel The Killer Inside Me. I'm a massive Thompson fan, and adaptations of his novels have about a .500 average. (I'm the guy that doesn't like The Grifters much; I infinitely prefer a movie like Tavernier's Coup de Torchon.) The cast here seems to be on the money -- Casey Affleck as the duplicitous small-town sheriff deputy Lou Ford, Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson as the women in his life, and supporting work from Ned Beatty, Bill Pullman and Elias Koteas. Now there's a rough long-form sales trailer that makes the concoction look fairly potent. See it after the jump. Give a big hand to The Playlist for digging up this trailer. Now, if you don't know the story you might not want to watch this one. It's about five minutes long and gives away »

Extended, Spoiler-ific Trailer for The Killer Inside Me Starring Casey Affleck

5 November 2009 12:45 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

In 2007, Casey Affleck was a force to be reckoned with as he landed a one-two punch with “Gone Baby Gone” and “The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford,” the latter of which earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor.  Affleck makes his return next summer in Michael Winterbottom’s “The Killer Inside Me,” based off Jim Thompson’s novel.  The story follows a bored, small-town cop who decides to liven up his life with a little sociopathy and murder followed by the fun of covering up his tracks.

The trailer from the American Film Market has popped up online and at nearly six-minutes long, it gives away most of the film so if you’re looking to go in cold, do not watch it.  But I’ll tell you up front that Affleck looks as charming and devious as ever.  Jessica Alba, Kate Hudson, Simon Baker, »

New Poster of Jessica Alba in Machete

5 November 2009 3:11 AM, PST | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

ComingSoon.net have spotted a new poster (click to enlarge) for Robert Rodriguez’ new movie, Machete which stars Jessica Alba.

Synopsis from ComingSoon:

Machete” is based on the “fake” trailer in Rodriguez’s 2007 Grindhouse. The feature version of the trailer finds Machete (Danny Trejo) a renegade former Mexican Federale, roaming the streets of Texas after a shakedown from drug lord Torrez (Steven Seagal). Reluctantly, Machete takes an offer from spin doctor Benz (Jeff Fahey) to assassinate McLaughlin (Robert De Niro) a corrupt Senator. Double crossed and on the run Machete braves the odds with the help of Luz (Michelle Rodriguez), a saucy taco slinger, Padre (Cheech Marin) his “holy” brother, and April (Lindsay Lohan) a socialite with a penchant for guns. All while being tracked by Sartana (Alba), a sexy Ice agent with a special interest in the blade slinger.

More info as we get it.

She's been busy for a little while now, off having a baby and dressing up as Dora the Explorer for Halloween, but Jessica Alba is back back back in Machete - and this first poster that Coming Soon found gives us a clue to her look in the film.In the film she plays a Us Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agent on the trail of Danny Trejo's Machete, the rogue Federale agent whois on the run after being double-crossed when asked to assassinate a corrupt Senator (Robert De Niro). Also in there are Cheech Marin as a priest, Steven Seagal as a drug-dealer and Michelle Rodriguez as a "saucy taco slinger". Click the image above for the full version on ComingSoon.net The film's currently at the American Film Market, so with luck there'll be more word on a distributor and release date shortly. »

Jessica Alba Lays Down The Law In The First Machete Poster

5 November 2009 1:21 AM, PST | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

I.m excited about Machete in a way that.s almost impossible to explain to anyone who doesn.t rate Planet Terror as one of their favorite zombie movies. Scratch that, most of you haven.t even seen Planet Terror, judging from the scant handful of people who showed up for the greatness of Grindhouse. I have a feeling that Robert Rodriguez.s Machete will fare better. It doesn.t hurt that it stars, among others, Jessica Alba. In fact Alba, as Sartana, is the first Machete character to get a real teaser poster. You.d think the first one would have been of Machete, but once you look at tight-jeans, white tank top Alba ready to lay down the law, you.ll be glad she went first. Click the poster below to see the a bigger, full version where it originated, over at Cs. »
