Vanessa Hudgens Finds Creative “Shelter” With Upcoming Drama

Gimme Shelter (Roadside Attractions)

January is usually a month that’s littered with horrible movies. However, one film I’m eagerly anticipating is Gimme Shelter, a project which continues Vanessa Hudgens’ inspired choice of work. In the past several years, the High School Musical star has turned in solid work in Sucker Punch, Spring Breakers, and The Frozen Ground (I still haven’t checked out Machete Kills).

Troma Hits the MoMA With Return to Nuke ‘Em High Volume 1

One of the many reasons to hit the Big Apple this year is to revisit high school, B-movie style. On Thursday, January 9th, Troma Entertainment is making a stop at the Museum of Modern Art for a “Troma at MoMA” evening. The event is part of MMA’s 2013 “The Contenders” film series, and after the screening of Return to Nuke ‘Em High, Vol. 1, director/writer Lloyd Kaufman will take part in a Q&A session with, if everything goes as planned, a rapt audience.

Among the selections for this year’s “The Contenders” series are Gravity, 12 Years A Slave, All Is Lost, and Blue Jasmine. So, in short, Return To Nuke ‘Em High, Vol. 1 is in good company (or is it the other way around?).

Hopefully, the film is just as awesome as the poster. If you’ve already seen the film or plan to check out the MoMA screening, tell us what you think of the film.

The most prestigious (or for that matter, the most recognizable) honor came from the National Board of Review, which named The Grandmaster one of last year’s top 5 foreign films.
