In 2012, British film studio Hammer Films produced a little gothic horror film starring Daniel Radcliffe (in his first movie role outside of the Harry Potter franchise) that was received well enough by critics (I loved it), and apparently managed to pull off enough of a profit to warrant a sequel – The Woman in Black: Angel of Death, debuting January 2nd.

Jeremy Irvine (War Horse), is the only actor I recognize out of the film’s all-British cast (Radcliffe will not be in the sequel), but this is a great thing, keeping in line with the Hammer tradition of casting English actors. I, for one, cannot wait for this sequel, as the first film was the best horror film Hammer produced since the studio resurfaced back in 2010 (Let Me In, Hammer‘s British take on the Swedish film Let the Right One In, comes in at a close second).

Gothic horror is a very difficult genre to get right, and director James Watkins nailed it in my opinion with the first film. One can only hope that the sequel’s director Tom Harker can create that same kind of spark. From the looks of it, Harper and his creative team know what they’re doing. Let’s just hope I’m right on this. Hit the jump to watch the new trailer that landed online just in time for Halloween!

Joss Whedon’s The Avengers busted a lot of blocks when it debuted two years ago. It represented everything Marvel fans had been waiting for, ever since the news broke that a big budget live-action cinematic universe was being created through various stand-alone comic book movies that would eventually unite the title characters of those films into one gigantic mega force to be reckoned on screen. The idea was bold (very bold indeed), and it paid off – big time. Expectations were through the roof for Marvel’s The Avengers, and as far as I can tell, those expectations were pretty much met all across the board. Everyone loves this movie.

So how do you live up to the seemingly unbeatable legacy of the first film with a sequel? Honestly, I have no idea. All I know is that the first teaser trailer for The Avengers: Age of Ultron makes the movie look like it has a pretty darn good chance. Hit the jump to watch (Updated with new clip from the film)!
