'Breakout Kings' alum finds home at 'Graceland'.serinda-swan.jpg
A Breakout Kings actress is breaking in to USA’s Graceland.
EW has learned exclusively that Serinda Swan, who previously starred on A-and-E’s Breakout Kings, is set to guest star in three episodes of Jeff Eastin’s (White Collar) new effort at USA about a group of federal agents who live in a beach house together.
She will play Paige, a undercover DEA agent who sets up at Graceland, a live-in home base for a tag team of law enforcement workers. Her character is said to be a hard drinker who likes to play hard, too. According to casting intel: “She uses everything from her sex appeal to her unorthodox resourcefulness to get in deep with the enemy.”
On Breakout Kings Swan played Erika, a member of a task force made up of ex-cons. It was cancelled earlier this year after two seasons.

Riddick Gets His R Rating
Vin Diesel has said that Universal Pictures gave the green light to Riddick knowing that it would be an R-rated movie, and now we've got the official confirmation from the MPAA.

Written and directed by David Twohy, Riddick has been rated R for "strong violence, language and some sexual content/nudity." There was some concern before about it not getting the R rating considering 2004's The Chronicles of Riddick was rated PG-13. The original film, Pitch Black, was of course rated R.

A specific release date for Riddick has not been set, but the anticipated film co-stars Karl Urban, Jordi Molla, Matt Nable, Katee Sackhoff, Bokeem Woodbine, Dave Bautista, Conrad Pla, Raoul Trujillo, Nolan Funk and Keri Hilson.

Synopsis:
After a brief introduction in which were reunited with Riddick, surrounded by monsters, on a barren planet… we flash back to how Riddick ended up there.
We meet LORD MARSHAL Riddick. Nobody much likes that Riddick’s royalty now (he loves it; he gets to screw hot chicks) – as evident by the assassins that try and take him out at any and every opportunity – especially the necromancers, who are dead against the anointment of a furyan as a leader.
In exchange for the title, Riddick’s reluctant right-hand man and necro Vaako (Karl Urban’s character from the previous film; Urban will likely do it since the character is only in it for a short while) agrees to drop Riddick off at his home, Furya.
One thing leads to another and, much like the first film, Riddick finds himself stranded on a monster-infested planet. Instead of it leading to a rescue mission, his distress beacon catches the attention of a couple of merc teams (it would seem Vaako had dispatched them to kill Riddick while he’s isolated; not entirely true) who go after him with ill intentions.
One of the teams is lead by someone connected to an old enemy… someone from ”Pitch Black”.


* keeping my fingers crossed for nudity from either bi-racial beauty Keri Hilson or more likely Albanian major babe and MILF Antoinette Kalaj. Vin Diesel's Riddick is really horny in first 10-mins or so participating in a steamy sex scene.

KISS OF THE DAMNED (2012) : Teaser


Venezia 69 - Tutto il cinema bizzarro (prima parte)
More than a trivial plot and story flat, inconsistent even for a porno, here is a bore especially the banality of a staging devoid of ideas and guided by the evocation of a retro afterthought. A void filled with brutality (although mild) and sex (mostly"dressed").

56th BFI London Film Festival Review: KISS OF THE DAMNED
What Kiss of the Damned really needs is more Jean Rollin softcore silliness and less ‘Mills and Boon does vampire romance’. Instead it pursues a line focusing on relationships and achieves very little in the way of erotic sensuality. The treatment of locale (eerie, dreamlike landscape shots and an isolated old house in the sticks) and beautiful French babes enjoying plenty of bonking and blood-sucking is the direct influence of Jean Rollin. Yet it’s hipster qualities come direct from the likes ofAbel Ferrara’s The Addiction or Michael Almereyda’s Nadja. 

London Film Festival: Kiss of The Damned
When is a self consciously 70′s style soft-core erotica vampire movie not a sexploitation film? When it is directed by a woman, features a mainly female cast, and deals with issues of female sexuality as opposed to making the women objects to fetishize? This is the (slight) puzzle that I was left with after viewing Kiss of The Damned, a sexy, slightly kitschy, bloody riff on the vampire myth. There is a fair bit of soft-core sex in Kiss of The Damned and a decent smattering of blood, with enough harkening back to 60′s and 70′s horror films to keep fans happy. On the one hand a (not particularly deep) exploration of female empowerment and sexuality, what is surprising about Kiss of The Damned is how conservative the underlying tone ends up being.
If you like your vampires sexy and bloody, and are a fan of 60′s and 70′s horror films, this could well be a film you’ll enjoy, but the narrative doesn’t go to the places it could have, and Kiss of The Damned ends up somewhere between art-house horror and kitschy erotica.

Review: Kiss of the Damned
Xan Cassavetes (of that Cassavetes clan) has made an interesting choice for her first film. Kiss of the Damned pays homage to the languid vampire erotica movies of the 70s and 80s which typically found stunning European actresses caressing each other’s necks and trying to ignore a shaky script. It’s outrageously campy, the dialogue is awful, it’s filled with sex and blood, and the performances are painfully po-faced (with one notable exception). The explicit sex scene/turning occurs within the first ten minutes. While there are too many dull moments to keep Kiss of the Damned from being a true camp classic, and the line between intentionally clunky and genuinely naff becomes blurred at times, this is trashy, self-indulgent,self-aware, and it’s great late-night fun.

'Kiss Of The Damned' (UK Release: TBC) // Words: Lauren Johnson-Ginn
The central characters are embroiled in a tedious cycle of bickering without any form of action or progression. For vampires, Djuna and Paolo lead exceptionally dull lives, indulging in the odd gratuitous, randomly placed sex scene before slinking off to engage in painfully pretentious dialogue at civilised, bourgeois vampire parties. Meanwhile, the most interesting character, Mimi, flounces in and out of scenes, throwing contrived tantrums and devouring the odd human.

LFF 2012: Review of KISS OF THE DAMNED
If you want an idea of the mix of actors then ponder Josephine de la Baume (One Day, Johnny English Reborn), Roxane Mesquida (Gossip Girl, Rubber) and Milo Ventimiglia (Heroes' Peter Petrelli, Gamer). As for filmmaking styles, well there's a dash of Hammer horror, some slick 80s music-video posturings, a dinner-party talky bit Woody Allen/John Cassavetes would probably like, a dose of cinema verite, a touch of Argento and a good few dollops of lightweight 70s porn. Plenty to keep you on your toes.
* Observe the disparity between Italian review (the first one) and the Brits. Venezia69 goes straight to the cock of the male readers by pointing out that sex scenes in the flick is mostly of dry humping variety. The limeys as usual goes overboard throwing around words like "explicit" "porn" and "gratuitous". You can count on one hand the proper movie reviewers in England. The rest are bunch of pompous numbskulls. They chose to be vague (and often outright BS) about certain scenes (particularly of sexual kind) when simple explanation is much more easier option.

25 Little-Known Facts About Mean Girls

1. Janis Ian is the name of a real-life singer and songwriter, who memorably wrote the song “At Seventeen.” (If you’ve ever been to a lesbian karaoke bar, someone will sing that song.) This song plays in the background during a fight at Regina’s house. The Janis Ian name-drop is a reference to the fact that Ian was the first-ever musical guest on SNL and an out lesbian in real life.

2. Also, Janis mentions toward the end of the film that she’s “Lebanese.” This is probably why “lesbian” rumors spread about her during middle school, when eighth graders didn’t know the difference between the two words. This is why you should pay attention during Geography class, kids.

3. Last lesbian fact: Although Lizzy Caplan doesn’t get to be a lesbian in this film, Caplan came with previous lesbian thespian experience. In the TV show Once and Again, she played Mischa Barton’s ex-girlfriend in two episodes. (Barton would, of course, dip her acting toes back in the Sapphic waters during The O.C.)

4. Straight people things: In real life, Lizzy Caplan has been in a relationship with Matthew Perry since 2006, meaning that Janis Ian and Chandler Bing do it on a regular basis. Could you be picturing this any harder right now?

5. Just kidding, one more Sapphic connection: At the prom, Cady mentions that she “knows” one of the songs that’s playing, a reference to her general pop cultural illiteracy. (Africa and shit, y’know?) That song is “Built This Way,” a track by Samantha Ronson, the British DJ Lindsay Lohan would confirm she was dating four years later.

6. Lindsay Lohan was originally going to play Regina but was worried that the public would associate her with being a “bitch,” so she made Lorne Michaels switch her part. The producers originally cast Amanda Seyfried as Cady, but Michaels felt she would be a better Karen. (Maybe because her breasts can always tell when it’s raining?) As Chabert was born to play Gretchen Wieners, she always had that role.

7. Before playing Gretchen, Chabert was a prolific voice actress, in addition to her role on Party of Five. Her most prominent voiceover gigs include playing Eliza in The Wild Thornberrys and the original Meg in the first season and a half of Family Guy. After the character was slightly rewritten in the second season, Mila Kunis took over Meg duties.

8. Regina George’s character was partly inspired by Alec Baldwin from Glengarry Glen Ross. Fey worked with Baldwin extensively on SNL, as he has hosted the show more than anyone else in history, and apparently liked working with him so much that she cast him as Jack Donaghy in 30 Rock. This is a show in which he plays yet another riff on his Glengarry Glen Ross character.

9. Rachel McAdams had to wear a wig while filming Mean Girls, presumably because her mother’s chest hair was unavailable for loan.

10. Amy Poehler is only seven years older than Rachel McAdams, who plays her daughter in the film. McAdams was eight years older than Lindsay Lohan, who was the only Plastic still young enough to be playing a high schooler by the time the film was released.

11. Lindsay Lohan’s character Cady is named after Elizabeth Cady Stanton, early feminist and groundbreaking foremother of the Women’s Rights Movement. If she were alive, Stanton also would have loved Ladysmith Black Mambazo.

12. Daniel Franzeze’s character, Damien, was based on an old friend of Tina Fey’s, who is now a writer for TV Guide. Glen Coco is also a real-life friend of Tina Fey, and Mrs. Norbury was named after Fey’s old German teacher. Lesson: You need to know Tina Fey, so you can be a character in one of her movies.

13. Despite the fact that the movie was set in Evanston, Illinois (#northshorerepresent), the entirety was filmed in Canada, the nation of Rachel McAdams’ birth.

14. When Tim Meadows (who plays the principal) walks through the school with a baseball bat in the “the girls have gone wild!” scene, he says, “I did not leave the South Side for this!” This is a direct quote from the movie Lean on Me, a movie about a principal struggling to improve a decaying school.

15. Mariah Carey, who has stated numerous times that she’s a huge fan of the movie, directly quotes Mean Girls in the intro to the song “Obsessed.”

16. There was a video game version of Mean Girls adapted for PC and Nintendo DS — that I sadly have not played. I assume in that version, Trang Pak still made out with Coach Carr.

17. The director of Mean Girls, Mark Waters, is actually the younger brother of screenwriter Daniel Waters. Daniel Waters would become infamous in the 1990s for winning Worst Screenplay Razzie Awards for both Hudson Hawk and The Adventures of Ford Fairlane, but before that, he wrote the screenplay to Heathers. Heathers is the movie most credited as being a direct influence on Mean Girls, as it featured a group of four popular girls wreaking havoc on the lives on those around them. Cady even briefly references that film.

18. Jonathan Bennett (who plays Aaron Samuels) was cast in the movie at the urging of Fey, who thought he looked like Jimmy Fallon, and Mark Waters’ wife and daughter, who thought he was “fetch.” However, audiences have not found him quite as fetch since Mean Girls ended, as his major film credits have included Bachelor Party: Vegas, Cats Dancing on Jupiter, National Lampoon’s Van Wilder: Freshman Year and Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning. His biggest film, Morning Glory, allowed him to reteam with Rachel McAdams in the prestigious role of “Unnamed Interviewee.” If it’s any consolation to Mr. Bennett, almost every girl I know will think he’s “grool” forever.

19. Mark Waters had previously directed three films before Mean Girls, and the most successful of them was Freaky Friday, the surprisingly acclaimed 2003 film starring La Lohan. Oddly, it also grossed more money in the theatres than Mean Girls did, which makes no logical sense. His next film will be an adaptation of Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, which (I hope) will secretly be Mean Girls 3.

20. The movie was inspired by Queen Bees and Wannabes by Rosalind Wiseman, a non-fiction guide for parents to “[help] your daughter survive cliques, gossip, boyfriends and other realities of adolescence.” (Tina Fey said she found it “funny.”) The film was (obviously) loosely based on the book. However, at least one element was taken directly taken from it: Regina means “queen” in Romanian, Italian and Latin.

21. Although it has a Facebook page, P.J. Calamities is (unfortunately) not a real bar in Evanston. However, Old Orchard Mall is a thing, despite the fact that it’s an outdoor mall and not an indoor one, like in the movie.

22. The Barnes and Noble in Evanston is located right in the middle of Evanston. So, if Gretchen got diarrhea in it, she would be happy to run into almost everyone she knows afterward.

23. In the scene when Cady asks for the “lavatory pass,” you can see the periodic table on the board behind them. On it, the table lists “silicone” as one of the elements. This is not an actual element, although “silicon” is. Instead, it’s likely a sly reference to Mrs. George’s rock-hard breasts.

24. The film initially earned an R rating from the MPAA for language and sexual content. To get a PG-13, numerous plot elements and verbal exchanges had to be toned down or taken out. In the original script, Jason was to ask Cady, “Is your cherry popped?” during the lunch-time poll scene, and that burn-out girl did way more than make out that hot dog. (See: Masturbation.)  And when Cady walks in on Jason and Gretchen making out at her party?  The R-rated version had Gretchen giving him a big ol’ beej.

25. For the Kevin Gnapoor’s rapping scene, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler taught actor Rajiv Surendra how to rap. They recently recreated it for the internet, proving that Mean Girls truly is the gift that keeps on giving.

* All the Mean Girls are now part of movie nudity alumnae except for Lacey Chabert.

Sex and the University: Sexual horror in modern film


From B-movie horrors to more avant-garde psychological thriller films, directors have found some sort of way to make even the most gruesome scenes “sexy.” This tactic is most likely used to keep the audience interested, and to give them a “break” from all of the gore. Perhaps the directors don’t even consider it to be a brief interlude, and it’s merely included because the audience is already used to coupling a sex scene with their scary movies. However, the inclusion of these scenes only serves to display an even more terrifying dynamic in movies—that sex is used as a vicious, power struggle solely used to control other people.

In the 2007 version of “The Hitcher,” Sophia Bush’s character waits for her boyfriend to come back in a dark motel room, only to be interrupted by a hitchhiker barreling into her room. He trails a hand slowly up her hips, and the camera seems to almost slow down a little, as if to highlight the raw sexuality that is happening. It immediately turns into a ferocious struggle on the bed, with him trying to pin her down in order to make her submit. This struggle to make the victim (who is almost never male) bow down to the aggressor is becoming increasingly problematic; it is using the victim’s right to be a sexual being against them, as if it deserves punishment.

Even in horrifically awful movies like “Troll 2,” there is an effort (though a feeble one) to insert a sort of sexuality there. The camera pans over to character Holly, who is lifting weights in her room and wearing a tight bodysuit. It remains on her for a good five minutes, highlighting her torso and breasts. This is in addition to the much longer introduction of Holly to the audience, where it zooms in (entirely unnecessarily) on her chest, only to have a later scene concentrated on Holly dressed in a childish cartoon shirt adorned in soft baby colors. The director can’t seem whether he wants to hypersexualize her or to infantilize her, which is an indecision that occurs frequently throughout horror and psychological thriller movies.

Another example of this would be Darren Aronofsky’s “Black Swan”, wherein the protagonist uses her new found sex appeal to display dominance over the other cast of characters. She starts in a girlish sort of innocence that is clearly served to titillate; half of her “sexual awakening” occurs in her pink and stuffed animal-covered bedroom. Both Holly and the main character from “Black Swan” are stuck in a confusing meld of prepubescence and hard, focused sensuality. Even if there isn’t a sort of physical violence being used with it, their sexuality is used against them—they aren’t shown being in calm, confident possession of it, but it’s instead used as a destructive device.

In more slasher-type films like “A Clockwork Orange” and “American Psycho”, the women are used as mere assets to the murderers’ cruelty. Christian Bale’s psychopathic character in the latter film surrounds himself with prostitutes to abuse, while the young sociopath in “A Clockwork Orange” gleefully attacks a woman simply because he is bored. These are all films that are meant to provoke the audience, and to frighten them, but at what cost? This allows the audience to become acclimated to sex going hand-in-hand with violence, and to even look forward to it.

From pornography to science teacher; she deserves a chance
by Irma Wong ( Posted on October 30, 2012)
Although not a highly respected field, pornography is a legal industry for those who choose its work as their occupation.

Courts in the United States have struggled with how the law should treat material that may be offensive or considered obscene to the general public. In the case California v. Freeman, the making of hardcore pornography was legalized in California by freedoms granted to Americans under the First Amendment of the Constitution. Adults are allowed to own, see, make or publish this type of material, with some exceptions.

Earlier this year, Stacie Halas, an Oxnard middle school science teacher, was fired for her involvement in the porn business, even though it was years before she started her career as an educator. Her past profession was reported to the school board after students had found one of her pornographic movies online.

Oxnard school officials confirmed the allegations of Halas being in porn movies and uncovered her alias “Tiffany Six” shortly after. According to interviews with Tom DeLapp, a spokesman for Oxnard schools, Halas had lied about her past employment and that alone was reason enough to fire her.

School district officials also claimed that students who knew about her time in the adult film industry would be too distracted to effectively learn from such a role model.

Last week, an NBC news segment was aired that reported Halas is currently in hearings, fighting to get her job back. Despite the scrutiny and opinions about her involvement in the adult film industry, she hopes to once again be a science teacher.

School officials have commented to the press that Halas should not be reinstated as an educator, but those arguments simply aren’t strong.

First and foremost, the fact that Halas did not list on her resume that she was in once in pornographic films should not be a main factor held against her; what should be the main concern here is that the school’s background check did not reveal her past.

As Halas’ attorney, Richard Schwab stated to NBC, “It was up to the school district to look into her background.”

If a simple employment check was not verified by the school district in this case, more incriminating and dangerous facts can be left undiscovered in the future that can actually pose a danger for students.

It is also important to take into account that Halas’ past profession is legal and was a temporary solution to financial problems she was facing at the time. Halas has stated to the press that her only reason for acting in porn was for money.

In an article by the Ventura County Star, it is reported how Schwab even questioned a district official during a hearing as to whether it was appropriate to teach students that when a person makes a mistake that’s not criminal, the person can seek change and improve.

Instead of seeing Halas as a negative influence like district officials inferred in their response, she is actually the exact opposite. Yes, some will frown upon her involvement in pornography, but the fact that she reformed herself is something to admire.

Halas was involved in pornography between 2005 and 2007, but had left that in the past by the time she started teaching in 2009.

She left the adult film business to finish her education and get her teaching credentials, and that is an inspiring story.

It is safe to say that everyone has made a mistake. Sometimes those mistakes are something that are better forgotten or kept secret, out of fear of criticism. This was the case with Halas, and her past will not affect her ability to be a good teacher.

The school district argues that her involvement in pornography is a negative influence and distraction. Halas, however, is not encouraging her students to do the same.

She is educating them about science, which is a completely different subject. She is not showing students that she used to act in adult films, nor is she flaunting that fact.

After all, the main argument against her is that she didn’t tell anyone about her past. She has the courage to fight for what she really wants, which is to teach, and that should be the real news factor here.
