Who among us has not marveled, at some point, at the fact that his heart knows how to keep beating without conscious direction? That her stomach turns plants into energy, her cells fend off illnesses she doesn't even know are threatening her? Kelly Noonan dives into that sense of awe in Heal, a doc embracing many alternative-medicine theories about fighting disease and injury. A nicely photographed film whose mix of feel-good imagery and sounds-good talk may not convince many skeptics in the crowd, it will doubtless be embraced by many who think the modern world is producing new ailments that...

Paladin has acquired theatrical rights to writer/director Kelly Noonan Gores’ documentary Heal, which the distributor will release theatrically in Los Angeles and New York in October, while The Orchard has taken digital rights and will launch the film digitally later this year.

Noonan Gores’ film, produced by Adam Schomer, looks at how thoughts, beliefs and emotions affect our health and includes interviews with Deepak Chopra, Bruce Lipton, Marianne Williamson, Michael Beckwith, Gregg Braden and Anita Moorjani about the relationship between spirituality, science and the human body. It also features the stories of real people describing their healing journeys.

Following this past weekend’s channel debuts of Cockneys vs Zombies, Horror Express and Antiviral, the UK’s very own Horror Channel will be screening Eight more weekend film premieres this month, including the UK TV premieres of Tommy Wirkola’s crowd-pleasing, carnage-driven Dead Snow 2: Red or Dead, Jon Knautz’s demonic gem The Shrine, Tyler Shields’s stylish mash-up of Scream and La Femme Nikita, Final Girl, and Ben Kital’s underground possession thriller Beneath.

Full details of premieres in transmission order:

Fri 11 Nov @ 22:55 – The Shrine (2010) *UK TV Premiere

Three reporters sneak off to an isolated Polish village, eager to investigate the disappearance of a backpacker.

Stars: Brent Briscoe, Kurt Caceres, Eric Etebari, Jeff Fahey, Lauren Gores, Molly Hagan, Joey Kern, Ashway Lawver, Jason Masek, Larry Moran, Kelly Noonan, Rene Rivera, David Shackelford, Mark L. Young | Written by Patrick Doody, Chris Valenziano | Directed by Ben Ketai

The Descent arguably made being stuck underground scary again, with intelligent use of the darkness and just a hint of claustrophobia half of the job of scaring the audience was done before the creatures even made an appearance on screen. Beneath may not want to be compared to Neil Marshall’s movie, but as a fan I can’t help but compare the two.

Beneath may claim it is inspired by true events, but we know that this is a statement that is used as a marketing tool to get attention but means nothing when it comes to historical fact. In the movie we see a crew of coal miners trapped 600 feet below the ground.

Stars: Jason Momoa, Robert Homer Mollohan, Lisa Bonet, Linden Chiles, Lance Henriksen, Timothy V. Murphy, Michael Raymond-James, Sarah Shahi, Wes Studi, Steeve Reevis, Kelly Noonan, Chris Browning | Written by Jason Momoa, Robert Homer Mollohan | Directed by Jason Momoa

Robert Wolf (Momoa) is a Native American who is on the run from the authorities after exacting revenge on the gang who brutally attacked and murdered his mother. While travelling across the Us on his motorbike, he meets Cash, an itinerant musician and the pair become unlikely pals. As they head off across the Wild West on Wolf’s chopper, deep secrets are revealed as Wolf searches to find redemption.

Road to Paloma is very much a traditional “life on the open road” style of movie, Momoa’s character is constantly on the move, getting into situations and relationships both good and bad. However Momoa, as writer, also weaves a clash of...

Exclusive: Action spoof stars Donnie Wahlberg, Jenny McCarthy and Lukas Haas.

Highland Film Group is at the market talking up new sales title and action spoof Tooken starring Donnie Wahlberg, Jenny McCarthy and Lukas Haas.

John Asher directs the Elevative Entertainment project from a screenplay he co-wrote with Cameron Van Hoy that pokes fun at the Taken franchise.

Tooken follows a vengeful man on the trail of villains who took those he loves most, including his dog and his mother. Paradigm represents Us rights.

Lee Tergesen, Reno Wilson, Margaret Cho, Lauren Stamile, Laura Leigh, Joyce Bulifant, Ethan Suplee and Akon also star.

Kelly Noonan of Elevative Entertainment, Van Hoy and Asher are producing. Paradigm will handle the domestic rights.

The Highland sales slate includes Bruce Willis starrer Extraction, The Trust with Nicolas Cage and Noam Murro’s Blink.

On his last day of work, George Marsh (Jeff Fahey) brings his daughter Samantha (Kelly Noonan) to see his job. George’s job is as a career miner, finally retiring; and Samantha is an environmental lawyer who has never agreed with his job. But whatever kind of conflict you may hope to see between these two diverse family members never happens when the roof caves in on them in the depths of the mines and the horror begins. Other than having to survive the tragic collapse—a horrific enough thought on its own—they have to escape or combat a mysterious inhuman thing that is lurking in the mines as well. It’s a straight from the headlines premise mixed with that of 2005’s The Descent. But it does not handle the mysterious monster lurking in the mines nearly as well (read: horrifically, frighteningly) as The Descent did, and this...

Can You Get A Grip On The Thrills Of Beneath’S Long, Dark Shaft?

Caves and mines: not...

We Now Begin Our Descent: Ketai’s Debut a Minor Effort

Arriving decently dressed but in poor taste is writer/producer Ben Ketai’s directorial debut, Beneath, sharing its bland title with Larry Fessenden’s most recent indie horror film. This genre exploitation effort, which may eventually make a great double bill with Patricia Riggen’s forthcoming reenactment of the plight of the 33 Chilean miners from the 2010 Copiapo mining accident, often feels like a cheap knockoff of Neil Marshall’s The Descent, though Ketai’s adherence to the poker faced formula of And Then There Were None should satisfy those appreciative of commitment to ambience, no matter how generic the end product.

Samantha (Kelly Noonan) is an environmental lawyer who returns to her home town to celebrate her father George’s (Jeff Fahey) last day on the job due to declining health. Recording the celebratory efforts by interviewing several co-workers,...

*there are some minor spoilers here. Director: Ben Ketai. Writers: Patrick Doody and Chris Valenziano. Cast: Brent Briscoe, Kurt Caceres, Eric Etebari and Jeff Fahey. Ben Ketai's (30 Days of Night) second feature film as director is the horror title Beneath. This film was recently released on video-on-demand, through IFC Films. And, this is one horror film that viewers should take notice of. Dealing with trapped miners deep below ground, the writing team of Patrick Doody and Chris Valenziano introduce a supernatural element, born of hell. Lots of thrills can be found in Beneath, with the lighting standing out as the film's strongest element. There is a lot of mystery and a lot of tension in this exciting, horror outing. The story primarily focuses on the character Samantha (Kelly Noonan). Sam is visiting her dad from New York and Sam's dad is close to retirement. As a fond gesture, Sam...

Beneath is a new underground (literally) thriller starring Jeff Fahey as George Marsh, a longtime coal miner who goes down for “one last mission” – and when it comes to movies, you know how those usually go.

Along for the descent into darkness is George’s daughter, Samantha, played by Kelly Noonan, and a slew of soon-to-be-slain coworkers.

Dread Central got the chance to chat with Fahey and the film’s director, Ben Ketai, recently, and the highlights are below.

The first thing I wanted to know was, where was the film shot? It looks like an actual location. Fahey told me that although it looks like a real cave, the entire thing was built on a set.

“We were above ground,” he said. “The other part we can act. Sometimes realism helps, but with this, we had so many things to help us get into that mindset.” Such as, working...

What is the point of prefacing your horror film with text stating that it’s based on a true story? Obviously it’s meant to add additional degrees of terror — this really happened and it could happen to you too! — but while a film like The Amityville Horror benefited from the claim because its veracity was difficult to confirm back in the pre-internet days of 1979 the truth behind today’s movies can be ascertained with a few clicks of a mouse. What I’m saying is please stop opening your horror films with onscreen text pretending any of what we’re about to see is true. It’s dumb, and it more often than not shows a desperation on the part of filmmakers who lack confidence in the quality and power of their actual film. Of course, if you absolutely insist on doing it anyway it helps to follow it up with a strong enough movie that...

"I want you to take a deep breath..." Scared of being stuck in a cave? Are you claustrophobic? This isn't the trailer for you. IFC Films has debuted a trailer for Ben Ketai's Beneath, not to be confused with the other Beneath horror directed by Larry Fessenden. This one is about coal miners who end up trapped after a mine collapse, and one of them is a very pretty coal miner's daughter (go figure), played by Kelly Noonan. The cast includes Jeff Fahey, Eric Etebari, Kurt Caceres, Brent Briscoe. While the synopses seem to hint there's a The Descent like creepiness in the cave, this actually just seems like a solid psychological thriller. Here's the first official trailer for Ben Ketai's Beneath, direct from IFC (via SlashFilm): Synopsis for Beneath from IMDb: A crew of coal miners becomes trapped 600 feet below ground after a disastrous collapse. As...

In Beneath, a coal miner (Jeff Fahey) about to retire picks the wrong time to finally follow the old “bring your daughter to work day” concept. When the young woman (Kelly Noonan) joins dad and his mining crew, she’s underground when a collapse traps them all hundreds of feet below — sorry, beneath the surface. […]

Chicago – “10 Years” unintentionally backfires by proving that a real-life Hollywood couple – Channing Tatum and his actual spouse of three years Jenna Dewan-Tatum – has less on-screen chemistry than two actors who’ve practically never met.

Rating: 2.5/5.0

Attempting to capitalize on everything we loved, hated and have certainly never forgotten about high school, “10 Years” is a somewhat effective blast to the past that mixes the seemingly authentic moments of various intersecting characters with forced attempts at overly obvious Hollywood screenwriting.

Exploiting nostalgia as its primary sales tool and Channing Tatum as its linchpin casting credit, I watched the progression of some of the characters and their stories indifferently. For others, my life would have been improved without them and the film would have benefited by cutting the bloat they added to the project.

Director: Bears Fonte. Review: Adam Wing. On the surface, Carrie (Sara Fletcher) is a small-town girl looking to break into acting, but underneath her fresh-faced appearance is a girl on a mission. After learning that a journalist is about to go public with an old sex tape made by her cousin Stefy (Kelly Noonan) - a moderately successful pinup girl - Carrie makes a deal to provide the journalist with an even bigger story. Jordan Rivers (Leah McKendrick) is a teen starlet and Internet sensation, there’s also a chance she might be a fraud. Carrie must venture into Hollywood’s seedy underbelly to expose Jordan, but in doing so, and by delving deeper into the lies, deception and betrayal, she makes herself a prime candidate for ‘the latest Hollywood murder victim’. Which I’m guessing isn’t the kind of name she wants to make for herself. Bears Fonte directs this low budget thriller,...

*full disclosure: a screener of this film was provided by Breaking Glass Pictures.

Director/writer: Bears Fonte.

iCrime is a film about murder, extortion and looking out for family. This title will release on DVD September 27th through Breaking Glass Pictures and this is a film that you might want to avoid. In fairness to director Bears Fonte this is his first film. Fonte is not afraid to experiment with directing techniques including split screens, multiple point-of-view, and hand-held cameras. However, the script from which Fonte is working from is quite shallow and lacking focus. Plot developments range from: the shooting of an online film, Carrie trying to protect her cousin's reputation, a fake abduction of an internet star, false romance, selling secrets to an entertainment reporter and the list goes on and on and on. In order to bring some focus to this review, two questions will be looked...
