The Informers - New trailer

In such works as Less Than Zero and American Psycho, Brett Easton Ellis brilliantly dissects contemporary American society, a culture in which too much is never enough. Now, adapting his own acclaimed novel for the screen, he returns to the Los Angeles of the early 1980's with a multi-strand narrative that deftly balances a vast array of characters who represent both the top of the heap (a Hollywood dream merchant, a dissolute rock star, an aging newscaster) and the bottom (a voyeuristic doorman, an amoral ex-con).

Connecting all his intertwining strands are the quintessential Ellis protagonists—a group of beautiful, blonde young men and women who sleep all day and party all night, doing drugs—and one another—with abandon, never realizing that they are dancing on the edge of a volcano.

Filmed with uncommon glamour and grit by acclaimed Australian director Gregor Jordan, The Informers is an alternately blistering and chilling portrait of hedonism run amuck.

Director: Gregor Jordan
Cast: Billy Bob Thornton, Kim Basinger, Winona Ryder, Mickey Rourke, Austin Nichols, Amber Heard, Brad Renfro.

While She Was Out - Trailer for Kim Basinger's latest film

The story for this sounds a little like Eden Lake. What do you think?

A suburban housewife (Basinger) is forced to fend for herself when she becomes stranded in a desolate forest with four murderous thugs. What starts of as a quick trip to the mall ends in the woods with a fight for her life. All she has is a will to survive.

Oscar Winner, Kim Basinger (LA Confidential) and Lukas Haas star in "While She Was Out," a real-time thriller being helmed by Susan Montford, a producer (Shoot 'em Up) who is making her directorial debut on the picture. The indie film is being produced by Insight Film Studios Kirk Shaw, Angry Films Don Murphy (Nature Born Killers, Shoot 'em Up) and Mary Aloe of Proud Mary Entertainment. Oscar Winner, Guillermo del Toro (Pan-Labryrith) is executive producing. The script, written by Montford and based on a short story by Edward Bryant, centers on a suburban housewife who heads to the mall on Christmas Eve and ends up fighting for her life against four gangster youth in a nearby forest.
