30 Seconds To Mars

One of the most critically acclaimed rock bands of recent years is 30 Seconds to Mars, an American band from California who have been together since 1998. Although in recent years they have been getting more airplay, selling more records and playing more gigs, but in recent interviews the band have indicated that after their current tour they will be taking a break, and this could be anything up to 10 years away from music.

30 Seconds to Mars was founded in 1998 by Jared Leto, who also works as an actor. The band also features his brother Shannon as a drummer. Leto has said several times that music is what he was always really interested in and that acting was something he only did to fill in the time. For a lot of people though he is better known as an actor due to his roles in TV series My So Called Life and movies such as American Psycho, Fight Club and the Thin Red Line. During the time when Jared Leto was building up his acting career, he was also developing his music career and working to raise the profile of 30 Seconds to Mars, taking the group from a small family hobby band into a more mainstream rock band with a contract with a major record label. Jared Leto also tries to keep his acting and his music completely separate. He does not use his Hollywood fame to promote the band, and the fact that he is a well-known actor does not feature in any of the band's marketing material.

The Devil Inside


The horror genre has its fair share of influences, taken from now relatively dated 80's horror effects, and the slightly more effective 90's slasher horror arena. Those films were influenced by such horror gems as the originals Halloween and The Exorcist. The Exorcist in particular remains at the pinnacle of the "devil" genre, films that revolve around the concept of demon possession. The devil inside holds a few key influences from a few key subgenres of horror, but never really gets any of them right as it swings from one cheesy scare tactic to contrived plot twist after another.

The film follows Isabella, as her intrigue for the supernatural brings her to Rome and to an insane asylum. After her curiosity simply explodes, she collects a rag tag team of priests and goes on an adventure to the depths of boringness to confirm her suspicions that it may have been the act of demon possession that drew her mother to murder three people decades before the film takes place.

This foundation serves as a formidable plot line that begins as an exploration into the psychological realm of the supernatural vs. the natural. The tonal shift of the film brings things to a bombastic lightning pace, where characters you didn't really care about in the first place go through horrific turn of events that seem forced and downright silly.

JOHN CARTER


Edgar Rice Burroughs' novel A Princess of Mars (and its numerous sequels) has been an inspiration for several decades to everyone from other notable science fiction authors (Ray Bradbury, Arthur C. Clarke, Michael Crichton) to renowned filmmakers (James Cameron, George Lucas). It's ironic then that Disney's 2012 movie adaptation, John carter, feels heavily recycled in both its storytelling techniques and its visual effects. Mars and its inhabitants appear as outcasts from hundreds of other films thrown together to fight a war fought countless times before. Yet for its faults in narrative and lack of fresh visuals, John carter does accomplish a real sense of adventure and an accompanying journey of epic proportion. There may not be a valid reason propelling the monumental conflict between races, worlds, and gods, but the grand spectacle of action might almost convince you otherwise.

While escaping from a band of Apaches in the Arizona desert, former cavalryman John carter (Taylor Kitsch) is mysteriously transported to Mars. Once there, he discovers the difference in gravity allows him vastly increased strength and agility. Taken in by the Tharks, a nomadic tribe of violent, four-armed green aliens who wish to exploit Carter's superhuman abilities, the soldier begins to learn of the conflicts engulfing the planet while simultaneously befriending mighty warrior Tars Tarkas (Willem Dafoe). When the princess of a humanoid race of red Martians, Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins), is captured by the Tharks, John carter becomes entwined in the war between the city of Helium, the invading warlord of Zodanga, and an even more ominous foe intent on seeing Mars in ruins.

Although the source novel (originally called Under the Moons of Mars) was written in the early 1900s, its first theatrical adaptation arrives over 100 years later. Author Burroughs (of Tarzan fame) is attributed with influencing many great 20th century science-fiction writers, artists and filmmakers with this grand, pulpy, planetary romance. Because of its date of creation, its fair to assume that many of the unifying motifs and designs explored arose independently of anything else. Yet nearly every element is presented visually as thoroughly derivative - from masterpieces such as Star Wars or The Time Machine, or reworked from contemporary flicks as recent as Thor, Cowboys & Aliens, Clash of the Titans and Captain America. Even if Burroughs' concepts were the basis for subsequent science-fiction productions, Disney's John carter makes it look like assorted, cloned and stitched-together fantasy surfeit. It's all too late and old news - too bad for the great Burroughs to be represented so poorly here.
