"Suspecha" Short Film One-sheet Pays Homage to Classic Horror and Comic Genre

Javier Cordero's short film "Suspecha" (meaning Suspicion) has gone into post production and gearing up to make the festival circuit. He pays tribute to classic horror movies mostly from Italian cinema greats such as Mario Bava and Dario Argento. Cordero also seems to be influenced by the American horror comic styles. He combines these the two to bring his own flavor of horror. "Suspecha" is, in the directors on words, a story of horror kitsch, exaggerated, strong prints and high contrasts, is an emotional blow to the viewer.


The film is a story that revolves around a woman who lives in a small village in Spain around the "day of the candles" festival, full of superstitions and rituals with effigies of horrifying figures being set on fire. She comes home to find her son murdered and husband lying unconscious. Was it an accident or murder?

A Better Poster Image For "Cobra: The Space Pirate"

Alexandre Aja is heading back to France for this great Sci-fi vision that will see release sometime in 2013. Aja is the director for such films as Piranha 3D and The Hills Have Eyes.


Johnson, a worker for a futuristic trading company, got woken up on a Sunday morning by his robotic maid, Ben. Ben suggested that Johnson go to the Trip Movie Corporation (T.M. Company), a company that lets its guests experience a dream as if it were real. Johnson asked to be the king of Harlem, surrounded by beautiful women, and commanding a battlestar. In his dream, Johnson as "Cobra" explored space with his partner Lady Armaroid. Cobra wielded the "Psychogun" and fought off monsters from other planets and most of all the Pirate Guild, the leader being Captain Vaiken whom he let loose. Vaiken distributed Cobra's picture to all the other pirates making him a wanted man. When the dream ended a woman asked Johnson how the dream was, Johnson responding, and the woman correcting to the fact it should have been about him being the king of Harlem.
On Johnson's way back home, he crashed into a man speeding in his car. He recognized the man, who looked identical to Captain Vaiken. Johnson started explaining how he looked like Vaiken right in front of him, thus making Vaiken think he knew something about Cobra. Johnson unconsciously lifted his right arm as if he had a gun. Johnson shot a ray out of his hand, killing Vaiken. The shot blew up his arm, revealing the Psycho-gun. Johnson hurried back home, where Ben noticed his arm and Johnson realized that he did not remember anything from the last three years that he had lived in his house. Johnson looked into a mirror, which he turned a nob to reveal a secret room behind it, which he looked inside to see his revolver which he used in his dream. Lady Armaroid came out from hiding within Ben. Johnson started to remember more, and at that moment many people were recruited by the Pirate Guild to come in and kill Johnson. Johnson killed the recruited people and started to remember that he is Cobra and he was wanted by the Pirate Guild and he was sick of fighting them off. In order to get away from them, Cobra surgically altered his face and had his memories erased. Lady Armariod told Cobra that Trip Movie triggered his sub-conscious and instead brought back old memories. Once more, Lady Armaroid and Cobra set off to all the adventures that come forth.
Cobra later meets Jane Royal, one of the Royal sisters, in a bar. Jane Royal teams up with Cobra and Lady to find the other two Royal sisters, whose tattoo maps lead to the greatest treasure in the whole universe.

Corridor Digital will release a new short film on July 1st titled Prizm .
Set in the year 2032, two young urban explorers break in to a science conference (creatively named Sci-Con) being put on by one of the leading tech companies of their time, Shizuka Inc. Shizuka has a star scientist within their ranks, a certain Dr. Blackwell. He has invented a teleportation device, which he is set to debut to the world at this conference.

Unfortunately for Dr. Blackwell, the two young urban explorers (Vadim and Nessa) have found themselves in the room where the PRISM (personal teleportation device) has just been prepped for the stage.  The scientist enters the room, but before he can retrieve the device, the two kids panic, and accidentally trigger the device, beaming them out of the building.

With the ultimate discovery in their hands, Vadim and Nessa are now on the run from the private security forces of Shizuka. Even Dr. Blackwell himself has donned his older prototype teleporter to chase the two kids down. Utilizing energy weapons, futuristic guns, and the PRISM itself, Vadim and Nessa fight to escape with their lives and the PRISM.
