See KStew (Kristen Stewart) out of her "Twilight" element in her latest indie film, "Welcome to the Rileys," debuting in October 2010. The film also stars James Gandolfini. Trailer after the jump.

Summit just released a clip from the highly-anticipated “Twilight” movie, “Eclipse.” I guess there’s a gang of vampires on the loose, wreaking havoc, while Dakota Fanning and a bunch of hoity-toity vampires watch from a rooftop, but to me this just looks like a regular night in Vancouver. The clip is exclusive to Apple, so you gots to travel there. Click here to view the clip.

I gotta say, "The Runaways" looks really fun, lurid and trashy in just the right ways. Here's a music video with Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart cut by the film's director, Floria Sigismondi. "Get down ladies, you've got nothin' to lose..."

The Gersh Agency has signed award-winning independent filmmaker Debra Granik and her writing-producing partner Anne Rosellini. At last month’s Sundance Film Festival, Granik’s latest film, “Winter’s Bone,” won the grand jury prize in the dramatic competition. She and Rosellini were also honored with the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award for their adaptation of the Daniel Woodrell novel. Rosellini produced the dark drama.

"Sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll -- what's not to like about this movie?" said a partygoer at the packed-to-the-gills bash for "The Runaways" -- the buzz film of Sundance. Add to that the two teen stars -- Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning, who are steaming up the snowy sidewalks on Main Street, and you have one hot party. Chronicling the rocky road of the 1970s teen rock group, Stewart channels Joan Jett and Fanning brings Cherie Currie to the big screen.

There's such an overloaad of evening parties competing against each other that Gersh Agency and Skintimate Screening Series had a good idea: Let's do Brunch! The ski run (a mere few feet away) from the Greenhouse Lodge's carport brought out a posse of paparazzi on skis who had a field day shooting Kristen Stewart as she got in and out of the car. The it girl of this year's Sundance stopped by long enough at the brunch to say hello and have a quick bite to eat.

When I was sorting through party invitations pre-Sundance, I almost missed it. And then my eyes focused and realized I was being offered a chance to see Joan Jett -- and the Blackhearts, thank you -- perform a show at HarryO's on Main Street Saturday night. It quickly went straight to the top of the personal event list for the week. Not because I have remained a fan since 1981, but because it was a chance to see Joan Jett perform, for chrissakes. My first rock crush (also from my hometown of Philly). Like many contemporaries, "I Love Rock N' Roll" was my first sing-along anthem (though Pat Benatar's "Hell Is for Children" came right after), and she, along with Chrissie Hynde, represented the ultimate teenage fantasy: an attractive woman who could rock harder than you.

"Twilight" fans are in for a shock. Beautiful, virginal Bella Swan has morphed into a smoking, cussing 16-year-old New Orleans stripper/sex worker marked with bruises and scars named Mallory. Or Alison, actually. Kristen Stewart, who has drawn legions of devoted followers to her as "Twilight's" conflicted protagonist, flips that portrayal on its head for "Welcome to the Rileys," the very R-rated indie drama that premiered Saturday at the Racquet Club Theatre at Sundance (here's THR film critic Kirk Honeycutt's review). Stewart is raw, feral, feisty and utterly believable in ways that should remind everyone that she has chops well beyond teenaged vampire soap operas. Tomorrow she stars in the premiere of "The Runaways," which Apparition has already slotted for a March release. That should seal the deal for any doubters. Unfortunately, Stewart's younger fans are unlikely to see "Rileys," since it features a pot-smoking Stewart tossing off lines about her cooter, handjobs, anal sex and how "I'm not gonna fuck your German shepherd." Most of this is delivered in stages of undress or in her dancing get-up at the Dixie Divas club, including red Xs taped across her breasts, fishnets, a g-string and five-inch heels.

Punchy. Punky. Sexy. Rockin'. Just as it should be. Right on the heels of news that Apparition picked up U.S. distribution rights to the $9-$10 million film, MTV has the first look at the 49-second teaser trailer for "The Runaways." Dakota Fanning as Cherie Currie. K. Stew as Joan Jett. It's a pretty hot, pumpin' video and gets across exactly the punch-to-the-gut that the girls represented to the rock scene of the late '70s. It surely helped that Jett herself was often on-set to consult. As an unidentified male voice says over the end: "The Runaways... have the most chance of any group I've seen... to tear this world apart." What do you think?

You thought Kristen Stewart was big on the blockbuster stage? Wait until she takes over the indie world, too. I was tooling around the Sundance Film Festival's ass-kicking new interactive schedule website on Friday, putting together a tentative itinerary for the January event. Among the site's cool features is a "Buzz" tracker that logs all the interest in the films in the program -- both page views and the number of visitors who have tagged a film to insert in their personal festival schedules. Guess what the top two films are, in terms of both page count and scheduling? "The Runaways," a Stewart starrer that Apparition picked up for distribution this weekend, six weeks before it was even scheduled to premiere at Sundance. And "Welcome to the Rileys," Jake Scott's new film starring... Kristen Stewart. "Runaways," which features Stewart as Joan Jett opposite "New Moon" co-star Dakota Fanning as Cherie Currie, has 12,326 page views and 287 adds as of Monday at 1 pm, PST. "Rileys," a competition film that features Stewart as a New Orleans prostitute opposite James Gandolfini's grieving father, has 5,817 views and 267 adds. Not to make it a competition or anything... But really, is Park City ready for some "Twilight"-level chaos?
