The British film Kill Your Friends is a mixture of black comedy, crime and thriller, which was "cooked" by Owen Harris according to the recipe of John Niven, who wrote the screenplay, and which he adapted from his own book of the same name from 2008. Set in London in 1997, rising star Nicholas Hoult takes on the role of an overly competitive A&R manager during Britpop's "golden cow" (read hit-making) era.

Sometimes I walk around the keyboard, sometimes in nature. One time I twist the heels, the other time the kitchen. I press the trigger once, the pedals a second time. And one time I play the role of a moviegoer, another time a nanny. Life offers such a wide range of things that it would be pointless to dip your brush in just a color or two, right?
What would happen if the most influential politicians in the world - Barack Obama, Vladimir Putin and Angela Merkel - were famous movie actors? What if we were addressed from movie posters instead of podiums? This is exactly what was on Luigi Tirina's mind, who used Photoshop to recreate famous movie posters with three world leaders.
There are many so-called universal wrenches on the shelves, but no French tool has such a brilliant patent as Jordan Steranka's Aperture Wrench. The tool uses the principle of aperture in photographic lenses. And not only do you use it to reduce the "roll of" tools, with the rotary wheel on the side you can instantly set the size you need to tighten that bolt nut.
Did you wake up happy and smiling today? Well, that will change in an instant when you watch the trailer for the horror film The Witch. And if the pleasantly cool morning air didn't give you goosebumps, the next two and a half minutes will give your skin goosebumps. The Robert Eggers-signed film was a huge hit at this year's Sundance Film Festival, and you'll be pale from fear while watching it in 2016.
Espresso cafetiera Pulcina is the work of Michele de Lucchi and combines the technology of two Italian giants of design and coffee industry - Alessi and Illycaffè. The latter lent his knowledge of coffee preparation, while Alessi provided experience in design. And a coffee machine was born that makes coffee for the new millennium by emphasizing the organoleptic properties of coffee, i.e. the characteristics that we perceive through the mouth and nose.
Lovense, the maker of erotic toys for long-distance relationships (because the only recipe for them is sex), with the smart vibrator Bluch Vibe, which can be controlled via a dedicated app on the iPhone smartphone and Apple Watch smartwatch, is on the crowdfunding platform Indiegogo in instant success. The authors emphasized not only the fact that it can be used without hands, but that it can vibrate to the rhythm of the selected music or sounds from the surroundings.
Dreaming of trading your 1999 Ford Fiesta for a high-tech BMW? Of course, but unfortunately money doesn't grow on trees. Fortunately, a new "gadget" has appeared, which will also adapt the car given by emso to today's standards and bring infotainment even to such an old "cradle". And that for just over 230 euros. We are talking about the projection screen or the Exploride HUD, where you can find all the key information gathered under one roof.
Most manufacturers try to make their products useful. In order to make their customers' lives easier or better with them. Thus, before starting to develop the product, they consider their wishes and needs. Most manage to understand and then pour it into them, but only a few think outside the box and offer something that customers didn't even know they needed, but then can't imagine life without it. And we present exactly such products to you below.
The Michelin star is to gourmets what Rolex is to watch lovers. But restaurants with Michelin stars are usually expensive and rarely anyone can afford a table there. All those who have already eaten in such a restaurant know that this food satisfies not only two but three senses. In addition to smell and taste, also sight, as we are served real works of art on plates that serve as canvases. Would you like to arrange food like a Michelin chef? Then don't go anywhere.
As long as you are happy with what your camera can do, photography is relatively cheap. But once you turn to photography equipment, you quickly leave a lot of money there. Even if you don't have the budget to afford such trips, this does not mean that you are necessarily deprived of photographic equipment. Many expensive pieces of equipment can be recreated with the help of everyday objects that can be found in every house. Check out what you can use pantyhose, a roll of toilet paper, a pie pan,...
We are used to the fact that billiard tables are rectangular in shape, they are distinguished only by size, among which the snooker table is the largest. But regardless of the size of the table, its width is always equal to half the length. Well, mathematician Alex Bellos took a different approach and created the Loop pool table, a variation of the ellipse pool table with only one hole and only three balls. Why would anyone do such a thing? It's actually a brilliant idea, and you can try your hand at elliptical pool billiards online.
While everyone is trying to cater to general, business and creative users with tablets, Acer, the giant of the computer industry, has created a toy tablet. Acer's toys from the Predator series, the Predator 8, will be difficult to open, as it is a real "animal" among tablet computers, with hardware that will not leave fans of gaming indifferent. The toy DNA also comes out in its appearance, as it is adorned with an aggressive look that we are not used to in tablet computers, which are famous for their elegance.
