What starts off looking like a Sony ad suddenly turns into the new Resident Evil: Retribution trailer with Milla Jovovich returning to eradicate the Umbrella Corporation in 3D. Retribution marks the fifth movie in the franchise which has banked $674 million worldwide (mostly from international movie-goers) and is set to hit theaters September 14. Take a look at the teaser trailer, complete with awkward Sony ad.
While there have been plenty of teaser trailers for Will Ferrell's Spanish-language action comedy Casa de Mi Padre, they haven't generated much buzz. This latest trailer attempts to change that. The movie stars Ferrell and Diego Luna as the Alvarez brothers, trying to save their father's ranch from Mexico's most notorious drug lord, played by Gael Garcia Bernal.
The telenovela-esque film includes a love triangle centered on Genesis Rodriguez and re-unites Luna and Bernal who starred together in Rudo y Cursi and Y Tu Mama Tambien.
Casa de Mi Padre es en los cines en 16 de marzo (the movie opens March 16).
Finally, we wrap up with the latest film from Maria Full of Grace director Joshua Marston. The Forgiveness of Blood won the Silver Bear for best screenplay at the Berlin Film Festival and focuses on an Albanian family caught in a blood feud.
Nik, a carefree teenager, sees his father and uncle become entangled in a land dispute that leaves a fellow villager murdered. According to a centuries-old law, the dead man's family is entitled to take the life of a male from Nik's family as retribution. His uncle is in jail and his father is in hiding, leaving Nik as the prime target.
The Forgiveness of Blood gets a limited theatrical release on February 24.
