All the Boys Love Mandy Lane
THE STORY Amber Heard (Zombieland, The Informers) is fantastic as the object of every adolescent boy’s obsession. As Mandy Lane, she ventures out to a remote farm house for a weekend of partying with pals until a hoodie-cloaked miscreant with a backpack full of killing tools begins to pick the teen pack off one by one.
WHAT HAPPENED? The directorial debut of Jonathan Levine, Mandy Lane hit the film festival circuit, garnering a number of rave reviews (including one here at Shock). Dimension Films swooped in, acquiring the film. After a long spell, Bob and Harvey Weinstein prepped a limited release in July of 2007 with the haste of two kids fumbling took take off their clothes in the back seat of their car on prom night. Poster art and a trailer were created. The press was invited to advance screenings. Then, at the last minute, Mandy Lane was yanked from the schedule. Talk about giving fans a case of blue balls.

Bloody-Disgusting.com, my favorite horror site, interviewed Amber and you can now check that out in the press archive.
BD: Talk about filming the “buzzsaw pendulum” scene.
Amber: It was extremely difficult, so many days in that one attic and surrounding area. Tight quarters, and very dangerous terrain. A very strange process. And the saw itself was a real saw and very heavy, for when we were doing the scenes before it falls in our face. Then they put in a rubber blade, but the weight was still there. And then the saw above me was entirely rubber, and that was OK.
BD: Great. So where the hell is Mandy Lane?
Amber: That’s a good question! That movie is as hidden from my eyes as much as everyone else. Such a disappointment; I fucking LOVE that movie. And it’s a shame it’s been caught up in such distribution hell.

Senator Distribution has decided to pull Jonathan Levine’s All the Boys Love Mandy Lane from its July 17th release date. The company offered no specifics as to why. The Amber Heard-starring thriller is now back on the “release date: to be determined” block. This is purely speculation, but we suspect the reason for the drop out may be due to tough economic times. The company, it’s been rumored, was closing up its New York office. Mandy Lane isn’t the only film on Senator’s slate to go “TBD.”

 For those of you who haven’t already seen Mandy Lane via the UK release outlets, according to the new issue of Entertainment Weekly the film will be released in North American theaters on July 17th. Will it really happen this time? Don’t know but we’ll just wait and see. You can view a scan of the article in the gallery.
Also, Zombieland director Ruben Fleischer has declared shooting on his horror-comedy finished, and was nice enough to slap some set pics featuring famous L.A. landmarks overrun the by the film’s zombie apocalypse on his official site. None of these feature any of the cast but cool to check out anyways. Amber has a brief cameo in the movie.

I’ve got half the notion to just give up posting anymore Mandy Lane talk given that the film is already on DVD on the UK and I’m sure if you are desperate enough you can manage to see it that way… but, given the movie truly is deserving of a theatrical run stateside and I know so many of you still haven’t seen it, here we go again…
While these dates are FAR from set in stone, here is the tentative line-up for Senator Entertainment. First, the long-delayed and highly anticipated All the Boys Love Mandy Lane could get a theatrical run come July of 2009
FYI the movie was supposed to get a July run once before, … back in 2007!

Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions Group has acquired domestic home entertainment and television distribution rights to Senator’s release slate. There are various titles included in the multi-picture deal including the long-delayed slasher film All The Boys Love Mandy Lane starring Amber Heard.
Mandy Lane was released this year on DVD in the UK, and we both got a chance to see it and the movie is beyond amazing so it’s so saddening to see this movie be bounced around. The company truly didn’t know how to market it. I do hope it will get a theatre & dvd run in the US soon so the rest of you out there can still see it!
