Link Tank: ‘Signal Dark’ from DUST Features the Ultimate Strange Email
The latest DUST mind-bending short, Zendaya’s second coming, the recipe for an effective Fallout adaptation, and more in Link Tank!
What if opening a suspicious email attachment didn’t just mess up your computer; it manipulated reality itself? Such is the premise of the latest DUST short film, Signal Dark.
“Signal Dark is a DUST short film from Silver Edge Studios. Lucas Anderson is an insular IT technician whose life is turned upside down when he stumbles across a mysterious email and its reality bending contents.”
Audiences can’t seem to get enough of Zendaya on the big screen, and her performance in Challengers takes her star power to another level.
“[Zendaya] has been executing her own Tashi-esque world domination. So far, she’s moved from kids’ TV star to being a part of some of the biggest movies on the planet… With Challengers, though, she’s about to go supernova, firing up in more ways than one to become the hottest talent in Hollywood. In Luca Guadagnino’s erotically-charged drama, Zendaya steps into a role unlike any we’ve seen her play before – a grown-up one.”
A large amount of the credit for Fallout being such a faithful adaptation should go to the show’s production designer and costume designer.
“Though this may be an entirely new saga, there is no question that it is set within the all-too recognizable world of the Fallout series. In fact, [Christopher] Nolan was committed to bringing this vast universe to life as faithfully and precisely as possible — and this daunting task fell on the shoulders of production designer Howard Cummings and costume designer Amy Westcott.”
Want to experience the latest ultimately gruesome horror film? Check out The Coffee Table from writer/director Caye Casas.
“There is no other horror film you’ll see this year as incessantly cruel and mean-spirited as The Coffee Table. This is both a compliment and a criticism, as, while the film is plenty committed to twisting the knife into its audience, it can also be rather repetitive before rushing to the finish. However, it is also painfully effective at making you feel sick to your stomach for nearly 90 minutes straight.”
Billed as the spiritual sequel to 2010’s The Social Network, a new film from Aaron Sorkin about social media’s role in the January 6th insurrection is in development.
“Aaron Sorkin is writing a new movie that could serve as a sequel to The Social Network… ‘Look, yeah, I’ll be writing about this,’ Sorkin told Matthew Belloni and Peter Hamby. ‘I blame Facebook for January 6.’ When asked why he blames a social media company for a pro-Donald Trump mob storming the U.S. Capitol, Sorkin replied, ‘You’re going to need to buy a movie ticket.’”
