On Wednesday, August 11th, Dewars and 7-57 Releasing hosted the premiere for “La Soga.” The film stars Manny Perez, who also wrote and produced the film, former Miss Universe Denise Quinones, and Juan Fernandez.

The action packed thriller is set in the Dominican Republic and tells the story of Luisito (Perez) who sets out to avenge the death of his father, after watching his murder by a deported drug dealer. As Director of the Dominican Secret Police, General Colon (Fernandez) feed into Luisito’s desire for revenge and turns him into a ruthless killer. Luisito is reunited with Jenny (Quinones), a childhood sweetheart unaware of his family tragedy and occupation, and quickly falls for each other. When Luisito gets closer to vengeance, he is framed for a crime he didn’t commit and must take justice into his own hands.

La Soga is a story of the life, the culture and the landscape of the island nation. It took Manny ten years to write the film. “Everything that happened in the film happened to me growing up in the Dominican Republic, so it’s very personal”, says Manny Perez. “It’s a work that will make you think about life, animals, and people in third world countries.”

Combined with solid acting, a powerful and well written script, a passionate soundtrack and beautiful cinematography, La Soga is a cinematic work of art.

La Soga opens national wide on August 13. For more information on the film visit

La sucia Robert Pattison is still trying to convince himself that he’s straight.

// February 23rd, 2010 // No Comments » // Where's the Beef

Since misguided sucias everywhere were cutting themselves when he told the world he’s like a girl who runs into a spiderweb when he touches a vagina, Robert Pattinson is now saying that he and Kristen Stewart are together. Like we don’t know this already. He tells The Sun:

“It is extremely difficult but we are together, yes. We can’t arrive at the same time because of the fans. It goes crazy. This was supposed to be a public appearance as a couple but it’s impossible. We are here together and it’s a public event but it’s not easy. We have to do all this stuff to avoid attention.”

Sorry. Too late little pasty sucia. Let’s not try to pretend now. The only way you’d have sex with Kristen Stewart is if she somehow transformed into Clay Aiken. Ohhhh snaps.

// November 24th, 2009 // 4 Comments » // Trailers

Thirty-something Captain Sam Cahill and his younger brother Tommy Cahill, are polar opposites. A Marine about to embark on his fourth tour of duty, Sam is a steadfast family man married to his high school sweetheart, the aptly named Grace, with whom he has two young daughters. Tommy, his charismatic younger brother, is a drifter just out of jail who’s always gotten by on wit and charm. He slides easily into his role as family provocateur on his first night out of prison, at Sam’s farewell dinner with their parents, Elsie and Hank Cahill, a retired Marine. Shipped out to Afghanistan, Sam is presumed dead when his Black Hawk helicopter is shot down in the mountains. At home in suburbia, the Cahill family suddenly faces a shocking void, and Tommy tries to fill in for his brother by assuming newfound responsibility for himself, Grace, and the children.
