Borderlands is now in cinemas!

Borderlands - one of the most anticipated films of the summer is in cinemas today!

Based on one of the best-selling videogame franchises of all time, this action-adventure-comedy follows Lilith (Cate Blanchett), an infamous treasure hunter with a mysterious past, who reluctantly returns to her home planet of Pandora to find the missing daughter of Atlas (Edgar Ramírez), the universe’s most powerful S.O.B.

She forms an unexpected alliance with a ragtag team of misfits ― Roland (Kevin Hart), once a highly respected soldier, but now desperate for redemption; Tiny Tina (Ariana Greenblatt), a feral pre-teen demolitionist; Krieg (Florian Munteanu), Tina’s musclebound, rhetorically challenged protector; Dr. Tannis (Jamie Lee Curtis), the scientist who’s seen it all; and Claptrap (Jack Black), a persistently wiseass robot.

These unlikely heroes must battle alien monsters and dangerous bandits to find and protect the missing girl, who may hold the key to unimaginable power. The fate of the universe could be in their hands ― but they’ll be fighting for something more: each other.

Long before producing the film, Ari Arad, whose credits include the recent hit Uncharted, had enjoyed playing the game upon which it’s based, calling it “cool and weird, and one of the more exciting and emotional games I’ve experienced. The game is action-packed but there’s a sweetness to it, which I thought was unique.”

Another key figure in Tiny Tina’s life is her stalwart, hulking, and loyal bodyguard Krieg. “It’s a bizarre relationship,” says Roth, “because both Tiny Tina and Krieg have been discarded. They are two misfits who take care of one another; there’s love and acceptance between them, in a big brother-little sister type way. Tiny Tina can take care of Krieg when he needs it, and he can and will kill anyone to protect her. The film is very much about the family you choose; within that family you learn to sacrifice and that’s when you are at your strongest.”

“The difference between Krieg and all the other Psychos is the soft spot in his heart he has for Tiny Tina,” says Florian Munteanu, who is best known for portraying fearsome boxer Viktor Drago in Creed II and Creed III.

According to Roth, it’s a perfect fit between actor and role.Florian grounds Krieg in a way I didn’t know was possible. He brings real humanity and multiple layers to a character that on the surface seems totally insane and savage.”

Principal photography took place in Budapest, where the BORDERLANDS art direction teams, led by production designer Andrew Menzies, constructed Pandora from Hungary’s unique geological features and from inside Budapest’s formidable sound stages.

There, they brought to life Pandora’s mix of the wild American West, humor, and an epic fantasy space adventure.

Budapest provided impressive otherworldly locations, heightened by director of photography Rogier Stoffers’s striking cinematography, including rock quarries, mines, and underground tunnels.

Production also took over the whole of Stern Studios. “I love that we got to invent everything,” comments Roth. “It’s a lawless world, where everyone is figuring out how to just survive.”

Award-winning filmmaker Eli Roth made his directorial debut in 2002 with the hugely successful film Cabin Fever, and his follow-up titles – Hostel, Hostel Part II, Knock Knock, and Death Wish – have earned him critical praise and a reputation as a true innovator in the horror space.

Prorom distributes Borderlands in Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Bulgaria.

Richard Linklater's Hit Man will open the 2024 American Independent Film Festival

The American Independent Film Festival (AIFF) returns for the 8th edition with the latest and most appreciated independent productions made in the USA, which will be able to be seen between June 7 and 13 in Bucharest and, for the first time ever, in the magical setting of Bran Castle, on June 7 and 8.

For the first time in the history of the festival and Bran Castle, AIFF 8 organizes special screenings on June 7 and 8, in the castle courtyard.
The proposal of AIFF 8 is to reconnect the Romanian public, but also potential foreign tourists, with the beauty of the open-air cinema, accentuated by the unique setting and the breathtaking atmosphere of one of the most beautiful places in Romania.

"AIFF 8 continues its mission to offer the Romanian public films that are more than just entertainment, to mediate the dialogue of the public with the filmmakers, to cultivate the experience of watching cinema films as a social event, in the middle of the community and to use the cinema as an opportunity to connect and communicate with others, including by popularizing some social causes to which the festival donates, as every year, the proceeds from ticket sales.", says Cristian Mungiu, director of AIFF.

The Prorom title Hit Man (directed by Richard Linklater) will open the festival, on Friday, June 07, both at Cinema Elvire Popesco in Bucharest and outdoors, in the courtyard of Bran Castle.

Richard Linklater, one of the most important contemporary American directors is known to the public, among others, for the series Before Sunrise (1995), Before Sunset (2004) and Before Midnight (2013) and for the ambitious film project Boyhood (2014) filmed throughout 12 years.

Oscar-nominated director Richard Linklater's sunlit neo-noir stars Glen Powell as strait-laced professor Gary Johnson, who moonlights as a fake hit man for the New Orleans Police Department.

Preternaturally gifted at inhabiting different guises and personalities to catch hapless people hoping to bump off their enemies, Gary descends into morally dubious territory when he finds himself attracted to one of those potential criminals, a beautiful young woman named Madison (Adria Arjona).

As Madison falls for one of Gary's hit man personas -- the mysteriously sexy Ron -- their steamy affair sets off a chain reaction of play acting, deception, and escalating stakes.

Co-written by Linklater and Powell and inspired by an incredible true story, Hit Man is a smart existential comedy about identity that premiered at Venice and was selected at Sundance.

Hit Man is distributed by Prorom in Eastern Europe.

Director Moritz Mohr’s dystopian action thriller Boy Kills World, which stars Bill Skarsgard and Jessica Rothe – will hit theaters this weekend!

There, he meets a shaman (Yayan Ruhian) who takes Boy under his wing and launches him into a cutthroat coming of age journey where he encourages his new pupil to leave his youth behind and pick up the baton as a highly trained assassin.

Skarsgard and Rothe are joined in the cast by Yayan Ruhian, Andrew Koji, Isaiah Mustafa, Famke Janssen, Brett Gelman, Sharlto Copley, Quinn Copeland, twin brothers Cameron and Nicholas Crovetti, and Michelle Dockery.
Sam Raimi and Zainab Azizi are producing Boy Kills World through Raimi Productions.

Roy Lee, Simon Swart, Wayne Fitzjohn, Alex Lebovici, Stuart Manashil and Dan Kagan are also producers.

Reza Brojerdi and Andrew Childs are executive producers.

Prorom will release Boy Kills World in cinemas from May 10 (Romania) and June 20 (Hungary).

The terror is real: Blumhouse's 'Imaginary' Horror About a Scary Teddy Bear is now in cinemas

He’s not imaginary, and he’s not your friend. Blumhouse’s  Imaginary hits theaters this weekend.

From Blumhouse, the genre-defining masterminds behind Five Nights at Freddy’s and M3GAN, comes an original horror that taps into the innocence of imaginary friends – and begs the question: Are they really figments of childhood imagination or is something more terrifying lying just beneath?

When Jessica (DeWanda Wise) moves back into her childhood home with her family, her youngest stepdaughter Alice (Pyper Braun) develops an eerie attachment to a stuffed bear named Chauncey she finds in the basement. Alice starts playing games with Chauncey that begin playful and become increasingly sinister.

As Alice’s behavior becomes more and more concerning, Jessica intervenes only to realize Chauncey is much more than the stuffed toy bear she believed him to be.

Imaginary is directed by Jeff Wadlow, written by Jeff Wadlow & Greg Erb & Jason Oremland and produced by Jason Blum, Jeff Wadlow, p.g.a.

Imaginary stars DeWanda Wise, Tom Payne, Taegen Burns, Pyper Braun, Veronica Falcon and Betty Buckley.

Imaginary is Wadlow’s third collaboration with Blumhouse, including the box office hit Truth or Dare. “We have a lot of trust in Jeff’s ability,” says producer Jason Blum. “So, when he came to us with the idea behind the film, we were excited to explore his imaginary world. Jeff brings a unique vision and storytelling expertise to every project he's involved in, and his passion for the horror genre shines through in IMAGINARY. Jeff has a strong understanding of what makes horror films resonate with audiences, and his creative approach to blending psychological horror with childhood themes is what made us so enthusiastic about this project. His ability to craft compelling characters and build tension is exceptional.”

The monsters and specters haunting Jessica and her new family are the creation of the award-winning animatronic and practical effects house Spectral Motion. The company created the story’s creatures — Chauncey, and the fabrications and costume for a fearsome giant Spider, the shadowy Entity, and Chauncey’s monstrous alter ego, Bear Beast.

According to creature effects supervisor Mark Viniello, Spectral Motion largely used puppets to bring these terrifying beings to life, which facilitated their interaction with the cast members. Instead of pretending to emote opposite a visual effect that would be added months later, the actors had a tactile “being” to interact with.

Lionsgate and Blumhouse present, a Tower of Babble production.

Prorom will release Imaginary in Hungary and Slovakia (on March 7), Romania and Bulgaria (on March 8), Czech Republic (on March 14).
