A Terrifying Period Piece
Set during the Ming Dynasty, Mutant Tigers is a high-flying action piece. One part period story, one part zombie flick, one part epic action movie. Mutant Tiger is about an alchemical experiment gone horribly wrong, and now a group of people must fight off and survive, well, Mutant Tigers.

The People’s Joker Pulled
A somewhat controversial fan film, The People’s Joker was set to debut at TIFF this past week. As of this release, however, the film has now been canceled. The film’s maker, Vera Drew, has pulled the film due to a concern over rights issues. How this came about is unclear as of right now. Discovery/Warner Brothers have not spoken up about any movement on their end, and Drew hasn’t said more than her initial statement.
The film got only one showing, a midnight madness showing to be precise. The film even received a review in Variety.
