'Ruthless' is hard-boiled

This teaser for a film short by local filmmaker Robert Kirkpatrick due in early 2012 is "an homage to crime graphic novels and late 70's and early 80's revenge movies," according to its Vimeo page. That means Samurai swords, an eye-patch wearing baddie and a British-accented moll (Kirkpatrick's wife, Jessica). Looks pretty slick.

NSFW if your work frowns on foul language.

Michael Shannon sees a darkness in 'Take Shelter' trailer

Nice looking trailer for Little Rock native Jeff Nichols' recent Grand Prize winner at Critics Week at Cannes.

The special effects look stunning, which isn't something we usually expect from an indie.

"Take Shelter" is due in October.

The win at Cannes probably means that whatever slim chance the LRFF had at getting a special screening is gone.

Watch a trailer for 'The Gleaning'

There's a filmsplosion in Arkansas. Cameras and other equipment are relatively cheap and everyone's got a story to tell. This one, set in Central Arkansas and featuring a lot of White Countians (woot, woot!), seems to be about teen angst and mystery. Possibly of the supernatural variety? Nancy Liles, Searcy, Arkansas' finest actress (and DJ Ike Plumlee's momma) features.

Directors Brian White and Chris Thompson are planning to submit "The Gleaning" to the Little Rock Film Fest.

UPDATE: The trailer will screen tonight at ACAC's "Show Your Shorts" night along with several shorts by Times contributor Levi Agee and Adrian Tillman (AKA 607), respectively, 8-10:30 p.m., 608 Main.

Surely, the Little Rock Film Fest will scoop it up next go 'round.

Grittier 'True Grit' trailer debuts

Score.

There is no way this isn't going to be amazing.

One question: Why is there a bear riding a horse in one scene?
