Fall 2013 has been a damn good season for horror game soundtrack fans, with a variety of entertaining scores coming down the pipe – ranging from purely fun entries like the hard-rocking Zombie Squash to big studio-quality symphonic epics like Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. An even more colorful variety of styles comes together in the soundtrack for Dead Rising 3, the latest entry in Capcom's hit zombie-slaying game series that began as a Dawn of the Dead homage and quickly expanded to World War Z proportions. The third chapter takes the music to the next level, involving not only acclaimed composers like Brian Reitzell (30 Days of Night, Hannibal), Jeremy Soule (Elder Scrolls, the Harry Potter game series) and returning Dead Rising composer Oleksa Lozowchuk, but also a host of talented cyber-rockers including FEARnet fave Celldweller. The standard edition album weighs in at 40 tracks across two CDs, the bulk of which is dedicated to Lozowchuk's score and source cues,...

How often does one get to go to both the West and East Coast premieres of a movie – if you’re not involved in it, that is? Probably not that often. But I just did, and that was pretty darned cool. This past week, I got to experience the world premiere of I Know That Voice at Grauman’s Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood; and then two days later, the East Coast premiere of the voice acting documentary at The National Press Club right here in D.C.
If you read my columns at all, you’ll know I’m a big fan of the talents of the voiceover industry and of this documentary. So it was a ton of fun to go to the world premiere, because literally 80% of the extensive cast was in attendance, and everyone was really happy to be there.

Believe it or not, Lisa Kudrow turns 50 today (July 30), so to celebrate we at Digital Spy thought we'd take a look back at her most famous role, the "wonderfully weird" Friends character Phoebe.
From singing about fetid felines to eyeing up Denise Richards, check out the best bits of Buffay below:
"She's your lobster"
We're not sure how a devout vegetarian like Phoebe became so interested in the workings of arguably the most delicious of all crustaceans, but anyway, her speech comparing Ross and Rachel to a couple of lobsters who have mated for life gave him the determination to fight for their relationship.
Arguably, the iconic prom video where Rachel discovered just how much Ross cared for her might have helped, but we believe Phoebe opened the door with her lobster claws.
"There's something wrong with the left phalange"
The 'lobster' moment wasn't the only time Phoebe helped Ross and Rachel out.

Drama pulled from opening night of Durban Film Festival; Look of Love screening also cancelled.
South African censor Fpb [Film and Publication Board] has pulled the Durban International Film Festival’s opening night film on the basis that it contains child pornography, according to South Africa’s Mail & Guardian.
Jahmil Xt Qubeka’s film Of Good Report tells the story of a teacher who is a sexual predator that grooms and seduces one of his students.
Audiences were not given any warning of the cancellation but instead, when lights were dimmed, were greeted with the message: “This film has been refused classification by the Fpb [Film and Publication Board] in terms of the Fpb Act 1996. Unfortunately we may not screen the film Of Good Report as to do so would constitute a criminal offence.”
On stage, Qubeka burned his identity document and taped his mouth shut. According to Mail & Guardian website, ‘the audience reacted to the event in stunned silence and disbelief’.

Robin Thicke is a cheese ball, and I don’t mean that as an insult. He’s a cheese ball in the same way, for instance, that Émile Zola was a literary naturalist. For Thicke, cheesiness is an aesthetic and an ethos. More to the point: It’s a job qualification.Thicke is an R&B Casanova in the tradition that descends from Marvin Gaye and Teddy Pendergrass and Barry White through R. Kelly and Usher down to The-Dream and Trey Songz and dozens of other, lesser Lotharios. The touchstones of the form are familiar: plush musical backdrops, quavering melisma and fluttery falsetto, earnest supplications and promises of carnal heroism, generally involving some combination of ceiling mirrors, expensive lingerie, fine wine chilling in bedside ice buckets, and, maybe, a canister or two of whipped cream. More than almost any other pop genre, boudoir soul calls on listeners to suspend their sense of irony,...

While it wasn’t officially a memorial event, the 15th Annual Ebertfest in Champaign, Ill., turned into a five-day-long celebration of the life of late, great film critic Roger Ebert. Perhaps most joyous of the many tributes, Oscar-winner Tilda Swinton stopped by to bring a 1,500-person auditorium to its feet for a dance-along to Barry White’s 1974 hit “You’re the First, the Last, My Everything.”
Introduced by Ebert’s widow, Chaz, and calling the dance a “spiritual service,” Swinton ran down into the audience and led a conga line through the aisles.
Check out the celebration below.

Ebertfest 2013 Dance Along from Ebertfest on Vimeo. People claim they want their funerals to be celebrations of their lives, but it's a hard thing for a lot of us to pull off. Roger Ebert wasn't like a lot of us, though, either in life or in death. Just a few weeks after his death from cancer, the 15th annual Ebertfest kicked off in Champaign, Illinois. While it wasn't an official memorial event for the critic, it inevitably turned into that anyway-- and according to all in attendance, the emotional highlight was this jubilant, energetic dance party led by none other than Tilda Swinton. With Barry White's "You're The First, My Last, My Everything" blasting into the theater, Swinton leapt down the aisles, led the audience in a conga line and cajoled the entire crowd to get on their feet-- even the people too old or stodgy to dance at...

Prior to his death, movie critic Roger Ebert had a long-running festival that celebrated the world of film. Ebertfest, also known as Roger Ebert's Film Festival, began in 1999. With the 2013 version already scheduled, it was decided to continue as planned with the event.
One of the special guests at this year's festival was actress Tilda Swinton, who was appearing with her movie "Julia." However, Swinton went above and beyond the normal movie promotion when she led a dance party with the audience, in tribute to Ebert. "We're not dancing up here," she says, "We're coming down to dance with you." She calls the dance-along a "spiritual service," at which point Barry White's "You're the First, the Last, My Everything" begins to play.

Tilda Swinton napped in a glass box in the middle of MoMA in the name of art only a few weeks ago, so it shouldn't surprise anyone that she took over a screening at Ebertfest by jumping into the crowd and inciting a dance party among the moviegoers before the film began.
"I'm sorry, what?"
Yes, she jumped into the crowd and started dancing to Barry White music out of nowhere. After being flummoxed that this was happening for a few minutes, the crowd even joined along, even if it was just in the form of some in-sync clapping from middle-aged white people. (Then again, what the hell else were they supposed to do?) Some lucky (?) folks were even brought on stage to dance at the end. Sorry, guys.
These types of off-camera acts from Swinton are becoming so frequent that it's apparent she needs an adjective of her own,...

This week, Jimmy Kimmel interviewed fans at the Coachella Music Festival about some hot new bands — the only problem is, the bands don't actually exist. But that didn't stop festival-goers from gushing about them. Elsewhere, Saturday Night Live's Kate McKinnon did her best Ellen DeGeneres impersonation in front of Ellen herself, and Boardwalk Empire's Steve Buscemi discovered a family connection with the band Vampire Weekend. Also, in random celebrity strokes of genius, Tilda Swinton led the audience at Ebertfest in a dance to Barry White in remembrance of Roger Ebert, and Buscemi's Boardwalk castmate Michael Shannon did a dramatic (and Nsfw!) reading of a nasty letter from a sorority president. Check out those clips and more in our weekly roundup of Top Videos:

"This is a spiritual service!" There's no doubt this year's Ebertfest was the most somber of them all. Just days before the festival was to begin, its founder, film critic Roger Ebert, passed away. That, however, didn't stop Ebert's wife, Chaz, and his many fans, colleagues and friends from pushing forward with the festival and celebrating those movies Ebert championed, while also paying tribute to the life of a man so many people cherished and looked up to. To say it was a rough week would probably be an understatement, but one lively moment seemed to raise spirits tremendously. During one particular program, Chaz Ebert brought actress Tilda Swinton out on stage to lead the audience of 1,500 in a dance-along set to Barry White's...

As they say, the show must go on. And what better way to honor the late Roger Ebert than with a theater packed full with movie lovers? Which is exactly what happened at this year's Ebertfest in Champaign, Ill., where Ebert's wife, Chaz, and over 1,500 attendees gather in the Virginia Theater. And also where Tilda Swinton led a "spiritual service" of sorts, a dance-along to Barry White's "You're the First, the Last, My Everything." Video: Tilda Swinton's bizarre photo shoot "If we dance up here, you're going to sit and watch us and laugh," Tilda explained about the tradition that sprung from festivals in her native Scotland.

Oscar-winning indie darling and artful napper Tilda Swinton provided Ebertfest with a memorable moment over the weekend when she led an audience of 1,500 in an 11 a.m. dance-along.
Speaking with late film critic Roger Ebert's wife Chaz onstage ahead of a screening of the film "Blancanieves," a jubilant Swinton ran through the aisles of the historic Virginia Theater in Champaign, Ill. and led the crowd at in a conga line-like dance to Barry White's "You're The First, The Last, My Everything," the Chicago Sun-Times reported.
Swinton called the scene "a spiritual service." IndieWire said it was "the emotional highlight" of the festival.
Ebert, who died after a long battle with cancer at the age of 70 earlier this month, started the annual Ebertfest fifteen years ago in his hometown of Champaign as a means of showcasing films -- some new, some old -- he felt were underappreciated.

After a late day three (the Q&A didn’t get out until about midnight), many of the attendees to Ebertfest, myself included, were a bit on the sluggish side this morning. The first screening was set for 11am, which hardly seems early on paper, but for anyone catching up with friends at the festival or, in my case, writing up articles into the wee hours, 11am came a bit too soon. Honestly, many of us probably were not in a particularly good headspace to approach our first screening of the day, the silent, black and white film Blancanieves.
Fortunately, as can happen at Ebertfest, we were treated to a surprise when, rather than starting with the customary introduction to the first film, Chaz Ebert came on stage and announced that, inspired by Tilda Swinton, we were kicking things off with some dancing in the aisles.

The first round of the NBA playoffs begin tomorrow with a 3 p.m. showdown between the Boston Celtics and the New York Knicks. The Knicks — who secured the second seed in the Eastern Conference — had their best regular season in 15 years, due in no small part to Carmelo Anthony, the NBA’s leading scorer. We’ll leave the more intricate hoops talk to the experts, but EW caught up with Anthony to ask about his must-see-tv, what’s on heavy rotation on his iPod, and the last movie he saw with his son. (Hint: a different kind of ballgame).

The Artful Roger: A Thank You To Roger Ebert
The mind rarely works in linear fashion, and I suspect mine may even be more chaotic than most. That item pinballed around the ol’ noggin, and, somewhere in all that bouncing here and there, triggered a bit of nostalgia. Probably because I was working on the piece during Oscar week, the mention of Ebert reminded me that there had been a time when this would’ve been the point in the year I’d be looking forward to the annual “If We Gave Out the Oscars” (or something like that) show done by Ebert along with his on-screen partner of nearly two dozen years,...

Reza Safinia, a multi-instrumentalist composer raised on Barry White, Michael Jackson, and Quincy Jones Productions, has worked in the music industry producing and engineering records for artists from Kylie Minogue to Ms Dynamite. Recently, however, he has begun composing for film and has managed to incorporate his passion for textured, electronic music into the cinematic realm. This is apparent in his most recent film Snap, which premiered this year at SXSW and features a primarily dubstep-driven score. Safinia was kind enough to talk to us about his journey from record producer to film composer and how electronic music has shaped the art of film scoring.

A survey of 6,000 British adults conducted by Travelodge found that eight out of 10 Britons rely on music to help them fall asleep at the end of the day. Coldplay tops the list of most turned-to artists, followed by Michael Bublé, Snow Patrol, Alicia Keys, Jack Johnson, Taylor Swift, Mozart, Barry White, Leona Lewis, and Radiohead. Even more interestingly, a quarter of adults surveyed reported they fall asleep listening to their iPod and they have a specific sleep-inducing playlist.

If you ask iconic New York City graffiti artist Phade (better known as Shirt King Phade from the legendary Shirt Kingz) about the current state of hip-hop, he'd more than likely tell you it's alive and breathing and resides in the Bronx, New York.
Whether you agree or disagree, Phade has been around the culture for decades and just like any other passionate hip hop fan is entitled to his opinion. But the difference between Phade and your average fan is Phade has lived the life of a rapper. And his crew, the Shirt Kingz, are his clique.
For those who may not be aware, Phade and the almighty Shirt Kingz carved a name for themselves in hip hop history by hooking up some of the '80s biggest acts with customized clothing. From LL Cool J to Bbd to Biz Markie to Jay-z, you weren't considered...
