Hey folks, Harry here...  If you've been reading AICN for the nearly 17 years that I've been writing it, you know all about my passionate love for the work of Alex De La Iglesia, the Spanish filmmaker behind ACCION MUTANTE, DIA DE LA BESTIA, 800 BALAS, THE LAST CIRCUS and a lot more.   I've often referred to him as the Spanish Peter Jackson in those 17 years, in the hopes that he would get to make some of his large scale dream projects, but as of yet - Alex De La Iglesia is making the filmography for Alex De La Iglesia and I couldn't be happier.   His latest will be on VOD & in theaters starting on January 30th, 2013.   So right around the corner.   Watching the trailer... there's a part of me that wishes the film were titled, "YOU CAN ALL GO TO HELL," but that's just because it makes me giggle non-stop!   I love Alex's dark inky black comedies that he shoots - and this looks to be another great one.   Reminds me of a comedic take on ACE IN THE HOLE, where journalists are more about the sensational story than helping those in need.  We've all seen this story play out in reality far too often unfortunately.    

Here ya go:
