Nicolas Cage comes back from hell to create mayhem on the road in Patrick Lussier's upcoming 3D action flick "Drive Angry 3D," and the first trailer for the movie is now online. Check it out below.

"Angry" focuses on a man (Cage) who's driving around like a crazy person while chasing the people who killed his daughter and kidnapped her baby. The film, shot in 3D, opens in theaters Feb. 11, 2011.

Amber Heard, William Fichtner and Billy Burke co-star, and judging by this trailer, "Angry" could be a fun flick filled with silly dialogue, cool action and a bunch of hotness (i.e. Amber Heard). Vrooooooooom...

New poster for 'Drive Angry 3D'

Nicolas Cage stars in Patrick Lussier's upcoming action flick "Drive Angry 3D," and a first one-sheet for the action flick just popped up on the Web at ShockTillYouDrop. You can check it out right after the jump.

To tell you the truth, I almost didn't see Cage on it in the back. My eyes definitely got stuck on Amber Heard, who co-stars. Other than that, this poster doesn't look that bad actually. Quite intense, huh?

"Angry" focuses on a man (Cage) who's driving around like a crazy person while chasing the people who killed his daughter and kidnapped her baby. The footage below looks pretty cool. Even Cage looks good.

The good thing is that right now, "Angry" looks pretty solid even without the 3D, and that's promising for sure. The cast rocks too, with Amber Heard, David Morse, Billy Burke and William Fichtner co-starring.

'My Bloody Valentine 3-D' sets U.K. record

Patrick Lussier's remake "My Bloody Valentine 3-D" delivered a strong domestic performance this weekend, but the horror pic also scored big time in the United Kingdom.

Here's what Variety is saying:

"Demonstrating Brit cinema auds growing appetite for 3-D fare, opener 'My Bloody Valentine 3-D' ripped off a record-breaking £1 million ($1.45 million) at 86 3-D U.K. screens this weekend, according to Lionsgate U.K.

Going out on all available 3-D screens in Blighty, the pic bested previous top 3-D three-day opener 'Beowulf,' which dragged home $740,000 (£510,000) at 51 3-D wickets."

I went to see the film at 10.25 p.m. Friday, and let me tell you, that screening room was packed and the 3D excitement stretched from the front row all the way to the very back.

Of course, this is an innovative concept. After all, "Bloody" is the first horror pic to open in Real 3D, and the quality of image is fantastic. Okay, I hated the script, but the cool effects really kept me engaged until the very end. Heck, I even didn't mind the countless "whoa" screams from all across the screening room.

'My Bloody Valentine 3-D' web reviews

How about some blood splatter in 3D? That's exactly what you get in Patrick Lussier's "My Bloody Valentine 3-D," a horror remake about a freak who gets a kick out of killing all kinds of people, etc... Let's check out what some online critics have to say about this 3D event:

Cinematical's William Goss: "Thank goodness for us, then, that it happens to make for cheesy, corny, gimmicky, gory fun -- if only in its 3-D theatrical presentation."

CinemaBlend's Katey Rich: "But despite the few tricks it has up its sleeve and its strict adherence to a genre of horror that's been lampooned for years now, My Bloody Valentine 3D doesn't have nearly enough fun with either its jazzy technology or its inherently campy premise."

• Ron Henriques at LatinoReview: "'My Bloody Valentine 3-D' just might be the most honest film of the year. It tells you just what it is in the title alone: a bloody horror movie presented in 3-D. If you're looking for gore or to be thrilled by the latest digital techniques at the cinema look no further."
