Small Town Secrets Unfold In The Upcoming Hardcover Collected Edition of Jeff Lemire’s Fishflies

Posted on by

fishfliesThe beloved, critically-acclaimed Fishflies series by New York Times bestselling, multiple award winning creator Jeff Lemire (Sweet Tooth, Gideon Falls, Descender) will be collected in its entirety, issues #1-7, into hardcover format in March 2025 from Image Comics.

A small-town crime sets off a chain of events that will permanently alter the lives of several residents of bucolic Belle River, Ontario. As the manhunt heats up, a lonely girl named Franny Fox forms an unlikely friendship with a fugitive that leads them both on an odyssey of discovery and redemption… a journey that also uncovers dark secrets from the town’s eery past.

“Fishflies was a true labour of love. In many ways it was a return to the terrain of Essex County, but with a supernatural twist,” said Lemire. “It’s the story of a small town crime, a lonely girl and a monster, but it’s a lot more than that to me. Fishflies got me through some really hard times and Franny and Bug became my anchors and companions. The story took me places I never anticipated, and I’m really happy to be collecting it all into one complete graphic novel edition.”

Andrei Tarkovsky’s “The Sacrifice”, New 4K Restoration Opens October 25 at Film Forum

Posted on by

Andrei-Tarkovsky-THE-SACRIFICETHE SACRIFICE (1986), Russian expat master Andrei Tarkovsky’s final film, will run at Film Forum in a new 4K restoration from Friday, October 25 through Thursday, October 31.

Opening with a small group of familiar players in a tense isolated situation, THE SACRIFICE unfolds to encompass the director’s cosmic view as, faced with nuclear holocaust, a mystic sacrifice must be offered to restore the world — with unforeseen results.

Produced in Sweden with a cast headed by Bergman star Erland Josephson (Scenes from a Marriage, Cries and Whispers) the film was shot by Bergman’s longtime cinematographer, two-time Oscar winner Sven Nykvist. The director’s last work – made as he was dying of cancer – THE SACRIFICE is Tarkovsky’s personal statement, a profoundly moving, redemptive tragedy steeped in unforgettable imagery, including an astounding long take at the film’s finale.

The film was awarded the Grand Prix and a prize for artistic contribution (in recognition of Nykvist’s cinematography) at the 1986 Cannes Film Festival, and won the 1988 BAFTA for Best Foreign Language Film.

“I Will Never Leave You Alone” Trailer And Poster Revealed

Posted on by

i-will-never-leave-you-aloneDark Sky Films is set to release date supernatural thriller “I Will Never Leave You Alone” to VOD/Digital Platforms on October 18, 2024.

Richard is a mute who is on parole from prison and has been released into the mandatory custody of a superstitious real estate investor who pays him to stay alone in a haunted house for six days to rid it of evil spirits. This is his chance to return to a normal life, but there’s a dark catch: if he fails to stay all six nights, the investor will send him back to prison.

Once on the isolated property, Richard finds a creepy, old doll that unleashes the evil spirit of a witch murdered on the property centuries ago. The witch haunts him and eventually tortures him using the painful memories that led him to prison. Pushed to his limit after a few days, he can’t leave or stay.

Unable to ask for help or even scream, Richard is trapped and alone, struggling to cope with haunting as it destroys his reality. There’s no telling what Richard will do if the witch-ghost fully invades his mind.

Written and directed by DW Medoff (Pollen, Sheep), “I Will Never Leave You Alone” stars Kenneth Trujillo (The Girl from Plainville, Better Call Saul, Die Hart); Katerina Eichenberger (Monarch, Places, Please, Secrets Beneath the Floorboards); Christopher Genovese (Other Things, Baby Bird); Emma Wedemeyer (First Kill, Haunted Mansion); Kimberly Maxwell (Raising Dion, The Game, A Friend of the Family); Pierce Lackey (Stranger Things, Doom Patrol, Jesus Revolution); Katy Wilson (A Rose for Her Grave: The Randy Roth Story, A Christmas Open House, Heels); Alex Parkinson (For All Mankind).
