An official trailer has debuted for an inspirational documentary film titled A Paradise Lost, made by artist / filmmaker Laurie Sumiye. An Animated Hawaiian Bird weaves an epic tale as the first animal to sue humans to prevent their extinction, amidst threats of climate change, fire, and sheep. This doc is about conservation and a fight to save animals from extinction. Ready for theatrical release soon, along with a debut on PBS this year. A Paradise Lost is a timely fable from the Bird Extinction Capital of the World about the plight of a rare yellow bird at the heart of Palila v. Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources, a landmark lawsuit in 1979 where an endangered animal took humans to court to prevent extinction. A stuffed palila stood in the courtroom as lead plaintiff, becoming a symbol for native species fighting for their right to exist against introduced sheep & goats invading their island home. With a blend of interviews, archival, vérité, animation, the film poetically weaves non-human perspectives of nature, and interconnected stories of life, death, rebirth and recovery. Yep sounds good, I want to watch! Starring Kalā Lindsey-Asing, Michael Sherwood, Marjorie Ziegler + Kaipo Schwab as the Voice of Ānuenue. // Continue Reading ›]]> 0 https://www.firstshowing.net/2026/eerie-crime-thriller-the-girl-in-the-river-trailer-with-maggie-grace/ https://www.firstshowing.net/2026/eerie-crime-thriller-the-girl-in-the-river-trailer-with-maggie-grace/#disqus_thread Wed, 22 Jul 2026 20:03:48 +0000 https://www.firstshowing.net/?p=799138 "Just because you think someone's a killer doesn't mean they are one." Samuel Goldwyn Films has revealed the official trailer for a small town crime thriller movie titled The Girl in the River, ready for release (on VOD right away) starting in September. The film is the first feature made by filmmaker Brando Benetton, who has been sharpening his skills as an assistant director before this, along with a few other short films. A seasoned criminologist and a young female forensic psychologist are lured to a small town to investigate the murder of a young girl and the disappearance of her twin sister. As they crawl inside the killer's mind, the case spirals into obsession and a race against time to save the other sister. This stars Maggie Grace and Devon Sawa as the two investigators, along with Tiffany Haddish, Sam Brooks, and Ralph Macchio. Shot on location in Mississippi, capturing all these eerie Deep South vibes right from the source. This looks like it has some unsettling twists and turns as they get deeper into figuring out what's going on in this town. // Continue Reading ›]]> 0 https://www.firstshowing.net/2026/trailer-for-rock-hotel-if-these-walls-could-rock-music-history-doc/ https://www.firstshowing.net/2026/trailer-for-rock-hotel-if-these-walls-could-rock-music-history-doc/#disqus_thread Wed, 22 Jul 2026 17:37:58 +0000 https://www.firstshowing.net/?p=799103 "It's a meeting place for the like-minded. That vibe is still there." Bungalow Media has unveiled an official trailer for a rock doc called If These Walls Could Rock, a music history documentary about this iconic hotel in LA. This premiered at the 2025 DOC NYC Film Fest last fall and will be out to watch on VOD (and in a few theaters) this August. For more than 60 years, there has been one place in LA that has served as the home-away-from-home for the biggest names in rock and roll. Tucked just off the Sunset Strip, the Sunset Marquis Hotel (see on Google Maps) became more than a place to stay while on tour. It became a creative sanctuary where songs were written, debauchery was shared, & music history unfolded behind closed doors. A place where music, creativity, culture converge. Now for the first time that story is being told. "Within 5 minutes of walking in the Marquis, you may hear a rock & roll story that sounds completely made up, but come to learn is true. Still beyond the many amazing musical stories, the father-and-son tale at the heart of the hotel is what truly inspired us to create this film." The secret is out about the Sunset Marquis. This looks like it will have some of the craziest rock stories ever told! And it'll make you want to stay at this hotel, too. // Continue Reading ›]]> 0 https://www.firstshowing.net/2026/tom-rhys-harries-gets-a-new-face-in-dcs-clayface-movie-full-trailer/ https://www.firstshowing.net/2026/tom-rhys-harries-gets-a-new-face-in-dcs-clayface-movie-full-trailer/#disqus_thread Wed, 22 Jul 2026 16:40:35 +0000 https://www.firstshowing.net/?p=799086 "If you're harboring feelings of anger, you need to let them go!" "You wanna know how I feel?" Warner Bros & DC Studios have debuted the full official trailer for the Clayface movie, a standalone DC movie set in Gotham City. Just in time for Comic-Con this week. This is the first ever DC horror thriller film, based on the comic book character of Clayface from the Batman universe. Opening in theaters in October this fall. The movie is a body horror story about an up-and-coming actor whose face is disfigured by a gangster. As a last resort, he turns to a scientist who transforms his body into clay. Exploring "the loss of one's identity and humanity, corrosive love, and the dark underbelly of scientific ambition." Tom Rhys Harries stars as Matt Hagen who becomes "Clayface", with Eddie Marsan, Max Minghella, Naomi Ackie, David Dencik, Nancy Carroll & Joshua James. It's produced by The Batman's Matt Reeves and features a screenplay co-written by horror mastermind Mike Flanagan. The first teaser was much better than this trailer, which plays way more like a horror movie than a comic book movie. I'm intrigued by this and the whole premise, but so far none of the footage has impressed me. Keep an eye out for more before it opens in a few months. // Continue Reading ›]]> 0 https://www.firstshowing.net/2026/full-trailer-for-gen-z-thriller-it-ends-stuck-driving-in-an-endless-loop/ https://www.firstshowing.net/2026/full-trailer-for-gen-z-thriller-it-ends-stuck-driving-in-an-endless-loop/#disqus_thread Wed, 22 Jul 2026 16:15:43 +0000 https://www.firstshowing.net/?p=799002 "How long do y'all think we can do this?

This initially premiered at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival to rave reviews & plenty of buzz, playing at Sitges, Overlook, Fantasia, and many other fests during last year. Neon is finally ready to give it a theatrical release this summer with their full support behind it. It Ends is a contained minimal time loop horror about these friends who get stuck driving on an endless road to nowhere.

Confined in their Jeep Cherokee, they must decide whether to accept their fate or attempt escape. The four are played by unknown newcomer actors Phinehas Yoon, Akira Jackson, Noah Toth, and Mitchell Cole. This is a slick, creative, clever concept that the director has explained is cinema about Gen-Z culture, about the experience of never really knowing how to grow up and move on – stuck on this endless drive.

It's also filled with wacky 1980s humor, a thrilling twist or two, and many more antics and hijinks of course.

The Stunt Driver is the latest film by Canadian filmmaker Michael Dowse, best known for his films Fubar & Fubar: Balls to the Wall & What If, returning to Canada for this one.

Toxic as an action-thriller set in Goa during the early 1940s through the 1970s. It is about the transformation of a man who builds up a criminal empire amid a backdrop of decaying colonialism and the ascent of the local crime syndicates. Set in a bygone era, this gripping tale unfolds in the coastal paradise of Goa, where a powerful drug cartel pulls the strings behind a facade of sun-soaked beaches and vibrant culture. A mobster movie from the 20th century. Filmed in both Kannada and English. Yash stars in this along with Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Huma Qureshi, Tara Sutaria, and Rukmini Vasanth. The first teaser debuted back in February with tons of footage. This new teaser focuses on one specific action scene set at a cemetery introducing Yash as the main badass guy in it.

It obviously reminds any cinephile of the infamously iconic eye slitting shot from the French classic Un Chien Andalou (1929).
