‘Yoga Hosers’ Trailer Confirms Kevin Smith’s Yoga Superhero Horror Comedy Just As Weird As It Sounds
Yoga Hosers, Kevin Smith’s quirky horror yoga superhero comedy just had its debut at Sundance.

Here’s Johnny Depp all dressed up and in practically unrecognizable makeup for his role in Kevin Smith’s highly yogadorkably anticipated, “Yoga Hosers.” The movie, which just finished wrapping up filming, stars Depp as Guy Lapointe, a reprisal of his Montreal man-hunter character in Smith’s “Tusk.” In the film, Lapointe steps in to help the Colleens (also [...]

A film about yoga superheroes? From Kevin Smith? Yes, you heard that [...]
Kevin Smith and yoga, eh? Yeah, right. No, really. Director Kevin Smith has a new film up his sleeves and it sounds like something between “Clerks” and his yet-to-be-released “Tusk” and involves some yogi crime and hijinks. Entitled “Yoga Hoser” the film is based off of Smith’s Smodcast #288 where he read through a news article [...]
Now that’s some yoga. If you’ve never seen this clip of “Y.O.G.A” from the 1983 Hindi action thriller HAADSAA, you are in for a rare musical treat. Sometimes we have to thank the goddesses of YouTube. Apparently the song in the scene is a nod to/ripp-off of this Kraftwerk song. Women in spandex leotards, levitation, [...]

It’s not your average Hollywood film, and that’s what makes it so intimate and endearing, and uniquely Lynn Shelton. Written and directed by indie filmmaker Shelton (Humpday, Your Sister’s Sister), ‘Touchy Feely’ takes you on journey through uncomfortable relationships (of [...]
