Last week we got a trailer, and this week there’s an extended film clip for the musical Burlesque, which suggests the people behind the film are trying to get people excited early about the rather camp looking movie. Burlesque is about Christina Aguilera’s small town girl with a big voice who finds success at a neo-burlesque club, after being taken under the wing of former dancer Tess (Cher). The film also stars Stanley Tucci, Eric Dane, Kristen Bell, Julianne Hough and Eric Dane. This first clip feature Aguilera singing Something’s Got a Hold On Me (with an invisible choir, no less), so click below to take a look. Burlesque will be in cinemas at the end of the year.

One of the movies to get the biggest boost from Comic-Con this year was Skyline, largely because it’d managed to pass under the radar of even the geek massive until that point. Now there a fair amount of anticipation for the film, which directors Greg and Colin Strause put together after having difficulty getting anything big-budget off the ground after AvP: Requiem. Their idea was to use their SFX background to tell a large scale sci-fi story for a relatively modest amount of money, and if this trailer is anything to go by, it looks like they’re succeeding. The film sees strange lights descend on the city of Los Angeles, drawing people outside like moths to a flame, where an extraterrestrial force threatens to swallow the entire human population off the face of the Earth. The movie then concentrate on a few survivors (played by the likes of Kate Mara, Eric Balfour and Laz Alonso) and their attempt to fight back. So click below to watch the trailer, which even features the unexpected sight of a giant people vacuum! The film should be in cinemas this autumn.

A prize winner at the Tribeca Film Festival, Dog Pound has scored favourable comparison to A Prophet, and now it’s preparing for its UK cinema release on August 27th with a new trailer. The movie, from Sheitan director Kim Chapiron, follows three troubled youngsters who get sentenced to time in the Enola Vale facility for young offenders. The place is a training ground for violence and aggression, and the trio soon learn they must choose their role in the institution, as either victim or agressor. Take a look below for the visceral trailer.

While Galt Neiderhoff’s The Romantics debuted at Sundance, it’s only now gearing up for its US release on September 10th, and as a result the trailer has arrived. The dramedy is packed with the movie b-list, including Katie Holmes, Anna Paquin, Josh Duhamel, Malin Akerman, Candice Bargen, Adam Brody and Elijah Wood, in a tale of a group of seven old friends reuniting for a wedding, and having to come to terms with their entangled romantic pasts. Not least that the bride (Paquin) and maid of honor (Holmes) have had a long rivalry over the groom (Duhamel). Click below for the trailer.

With the controversial Irreversible, director Gaspar Noe showed he’s isn’t your usual filmmake, and is unfraid to make bold visual and thematic choices that turn watching one of his films into as much an endurance test as a movie-going experience. However since that movie, while he’s directed a few equally intense shorts, only now is his next feature-length film preparing for release (and it’s taken a long time, as it played at both Cannes 2009 and the London Film Festival, but won’t arrive in the US and UK cinemas until September). The film, loosely based on The Tibetan Book Of The Dead, is the strange tale of a drug-dealing American teen in Tokyo, who is shot and killed, but returns as a ghost to watch over his sister. The trailer makes the movie look like a bizarre sex and violence filled acid trip, and knowing Noe, that’s probably exactly what it is.

Writer/director Paul Andrew Williams won major plaudits for the dramatic and engrossing London To Brighton, and while 2008’s The Cottage was a more run of the mill horror-thriller, with a dose of comedy thrown in, it looks like he’s taken what he learned on both films to make Cherry Tree Lane. The Funny Games-ish plot sees two parents, Christine and Mark, taken hostage by a gang of teenagers, who are looking for their son and waiting for him to return home so they can exact revenge. The film is getting a small cinema release of September 3rd, before heading to DVD on the 13th, but click below for the very intense, if rather brief, trailer.
