Teaser Trailer for Neill Blomkamp's new film "Demonic"

[Indy in the Fridge]

I enjoyed Elysium
District 9 is obviously fantastic
I couldn't watch Chappie because Die Antwoord is so annoying. Talk about a miscast.

 

[Shadow of the Void]

I never agreed that Blomkamp was a one-hit wonder. While District 9 was his best, Elysium and Chappie were both very enjoyable films to me. I'll definitely check this out.

 

[MegaMetroid]

His short film work with Oats Studio has been more impressive than the full length feature film work of some his contemporaries.

That sci Fi horror creature short was fantastic

 

[Obi Wan Jabroni]

This actually looks really, really interesting.

And count me as a fan. Chappie is the only thing he's done I didn't like.

Even Neil Blomkamp doesn't like Elysium.

For his second film, Neill Blomkamp chose to follow District 9 with a vision of class warfare as seen through a sci-fi lens. Elysium, starring Matt Damon, Sharlto Copley, and Jodie Foster, has some great concepts and in many cases is executed well. But the movie faltered significantly, with...

You're going to be self critical of your own work. If you aren't then there's a problem.

And on another note, my enjoyment of something doesn't require whoever made it to like it too. Just look at the -not special editions- of star wars. I like those as well.

Spoiler

(although I also like SOME of the additions of the special editions. Mostly things related to space battles.)

 

[Bebpo]

Gonna have a lot to live up to after Chappie.

Spoiler

I watched Chappie years later because of the hate and it was a cute enjoyable movie. Perfectly fine and better than Elysium.

 

[Sanctuary]

Doesn't give away much of the plot. I have borderline zero faith left in Blomkamp, he currently sits as a one hit wonder to me. But I'm always open to a quality new horror movie, so we'll see

Only one? I actually liked Elysium quite a bit. I also just recently saw the Oats Studio short films collection, which had me eagerly anticipating his next full feature.



The full collection was on Amazon.

I don't get the hate for elysium. It was pretty good and the visuals were fantastic.

Yep. It was visually fantastic, and I found the acting and story interesting enough. It's also pretty damn good in 4K too, especially audio wise.

 

[AwShucks]

Or Chappie. The hell was wrong with Chappie? Or is everyone riding the high of new and fresh that was District 9 and then expecting everything else after to be better?

Not much is wrong with Chappie. Love it.

 

[LazyLain]

Looked alright, I'll watch it.

 

[DevilMayGuy]

Bro what happened after district 9? Going from a movie I saw in theaters 4 times to just horrid piece of shit after horrid piece of shit...

I'm good, fuck a Bombcamp movie

 

[blakeseven]

It does look interesting but hes like a sci fi m night salamander and went on a downwards trajectory so hard. Elysium, then...chappie. Maybe this will be his SPLIT

edit: not fixing that typo

I don't even think it's what went wrong on the next projects, it's what went right on District 9, which was Sharlto Copely improvving the heck out of that thing.

The "Chappie" auteur offers another effects-forward experiment in iffy storytelling, this one an exorcism tale shot with volumetric capture.

Neill Blomkamp returns to features after a six-year break with this hi-tech horror in which a woman enters the virtual mindscape of her comatose mother to investigate what pushed her over the edge.

Dammit.

 

[chanceboudreaux]

Still can't believe that this guy made District 9. Did he die after making this movie? Has he been replaced by an imposter?

This guy is cursed or something fuck
