Netflix Instant: TV and Movie Picks

I think the snow is finally thawing down here in Dallas, and Spring Break is about to start. Perfect timing. There are loads of great titles to catch up on, and if you need a break from House of Cards, like me, here are some great titles for you to enjoy to help you procrastinate on spring cleaning. 

Fantastic Fest 2014 Review: OPEN WINDOWS - Javi's Take

OPEN WINDOWS Trailer Will Make You Keep Your Webcam Covered

There's two names that I always associate with Fantastic Fest: Nacho Vigalondo and Elijah Wood. Vigalondo, for those that aren't in the know, directed the excellent TIMECRIMES (CRONOSCRIMES) and EXTRATERRESTRIAL (EXTRATERRESTRE), and now he finally has another movie out with fellow Fantastic Fest legend, Elijah Wood.

Thanks to Badass Digest, you can check out the trailer below.

Frodo is freaking me the eff out in the MANIAC teaser

Javi here. I'm not gonna lie that if it wasn't for Mondo, I wouldn't be so excited for this movie. You see, during the last year's Fantastic Fest, they offered the vinyl for a movie I'd barely heard of MANIAC. Being such a damn hipster, I totally bought it. And you know what? It was a badass score, plus I'm pretty sure I got one of the few crazy colored vinyls, check it out:

Anyway, when Netflix got it on NWI, I watched it and I really enjoyed the movie. It was full of great atmosphere and apart from the ending, it was a solid movie. When I got word that Elijah Wood would be starring in the remake, I got freaking excited. And now, the teaser trailer has been released at the Cannes Film Festival with fancy French subtitle. Thanks to Badass Digest for posting this. Check out the trailer below:
