PREVIEW: TOTAL RECALL, ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER

Here's some previews we got for Sony Pictures' remake 'Total Recall', 20th Century Fox's adaptation of 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter'

First up, we finally have something about the long-awaited Sony's 'Total Recall'. There has not been much promotional for the movie considering that the movie has only about seven months prior to its release (U.S. release). Nevertheless, we know that a trailer will be coming very soon with the release of an image still and an official plot synopsis that comes right after that.


“Total Recall” is an action thriller about reality and memory, inspired anew by the famous short story “We Can Remember It For You Wholesale” by Philip K. Dick. Welcome to Rekall, the company that can turn your dreams into real memories. For a factory worker named Douglas Quaid (Colin Farrell), even though he’s got a beautiful wife (Kate Beckinsale) who he loves, the mind-trip sounds like the perfect vacation from his frustrating life – real memories of life as a super-spy might be just what he needs. But when the procedure goes horribly wrong, Quaid becomes a hunted man. Finding himself on the run from the police – controlled by Chancellor Cohaagen (Bryan Cranston), the leader of the free world – Quaid teams up with a rebel fighter (Jessica Biel) to find the head of the underground resistance (Bill Nighy) and stop Cohaagen. The line between fantasy and reality gets blurred and the fate of his world hangs in the balance as Quaid discovers his true identity, his true love, and his true fate.
"Total Recall' stars Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Bryan Cranston, Jessica Biel, Bill Nighy and John Cho. Directed by Lens Wiseman, the movie opens on August 3, 2012 (US) and a day earlier here in Malaysia.
