6.30 Producer Malek Akkad Talks 'Halloween 3D':



Over the past couple of months there have been a tone of news/rumors for 'Halloween 3D', now producer Malek Akkad has decided to clear a few things and btw whatever happen Patrick Lussier and Todd Farmer Halloween flick?

Will the new film be a sequel to Zombies Halloween? "I can’t talk about it too much right now, but it will definitely keep elements and bring in new elements. But I really want to bring it back to kind of like, the classic – because the last one got a little dark – I want to bring it back to the classic Friday night horror film that people will really like."

What happen to Lussier's film: "Todd Farmer and Patrick Lussier did a script. The next day after the last one came out, we were back in production for Halloween 3D. We were about two weeks from going down to Louisiana to shoot it and for whatever reason, the studio thought we were maybe moving a little bit too quickly. I disagree. I think we had a great script and a great team and it would have been a massive hit. But right now we’re currently working on a new script for Halloween 3, so it’s all in the works right now..."

So it appears Akkad wants to bring the next film back to it's roots... It's still unclear if Scout Taylor-Compton will reprise her role as Laurie Strode, but now that Malek Akkad has confirmed that the new film will at least keep some elements of Rob Zombies flicks.. I think it's a pretty good chance that she will be cast as Laurie Strode once again..

6.28 Another Remake For 'The Omen':



Uggggg here we go again - It appears that 20th Century Fox and Platinum Dunes are gearing up to remake 'The Omen', once again.. As of right now the project does not have a director, so clearly the film is in the early development stage..

This will be the second remake for The Omen, back in 2006 Fox released the first remake starring Liev Schreiber and Julia Stiles.. The film received mixed reviews but did go on to earn around $120M worldwide on a $25M budget.. Not a good film at all..


In 1976 Richard Donner's classic was released, starring Gregory Peck And Lee Remick.. The film was a boxoffice smash, the story centered around mysterious deaths surrounding an American ambassador. Could the child that he is raising actually be the anti-christ? The devil's own son? Donner went on to direct Superman...

Last month it was reported that The lifetime Network was moving forward with a tv series titled 'Damien', the series will center around an older Damien.. Glen Mazzara (The Walking Dead), will be overseeing the project.. To be honest I have always thought the story of Damien (Antichrist), would work great as a series.. But I'm not sure if Lifetime is the network to pull it off..

6.25 Update For Rob Zombies '31':



I'm sure you guys remember, back in February Rob Zombie announced that he was working on a new film that would be in the same style of 'The Devil Rejects.. Then last month he revealed the title '31', for the upcoming film... Even though there has been some confusion regarding the title, is '31' or '3I'? In a interview with Radio Metal, Rob Zombie clears up a few questions and to whatever happen to his hockey film..



On the title of 31:

"31, yeah, because it takes place on October 31st."

Is the film a prequel?:

"No, it’s totally different. All I can tell you is that it’s a completely original idea, it’s something new. It’s not based on anything. I’ll start shooting the movie in the fall. So hopefully starting from October, I’ll start shooting it. For right now, I’m going to keep the details secret. But it’s not based on anything."

Is the clown image in the teaser video related to Captain Spaulding in any way?:

"Well, he doesn’t really look like him, I think. There’s a clown thing in the movie, but it has nothing to do with Captain Spaulding. And what is in the movie doesn’t look like Captain Spaulding either, maybe the people think the poster does but the movie won’t."

Why 31 is your next film, what happen to Broad Street Bullies (Hockey flick?:

"Well, it really didn’t have anything to do with not being ready. It’s all about money, you know. We didn’t have the money yet to do the hockey film. And someone decided that they would give me the money to do the other film, so I said “ok, I’ll do this one first and come back to do the other one later." Because I didn’t want to just sit around for years trying to get the movie made, because that’s how it goes sometimes, you know. Sometimes it takes a long time to get a movie made, and I didn’t want to wait. And every time I plan a movie another movie is the one I make. You know, they’re very expensive to make. So, as soon as I told someone the idea for 31, they were like "Oh! We’ll give you the money for that! Let do it!” So I was like “Ok! I’ll do that first and then I’ll come back to the other movie!"

6.20 'THE OUTER LIMITS' Heads To The Big Screen:



It appears that MGM has tapped Scott Derrickson (The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Sinister And Deliver Us from Evil), and C. Robert Cargill to pen the script for the upcoming big screen adaptation for 'The Outer Limits'... The film will be based on the 1964 alien invasion episode *Demon With a Glass Hand*...

Original Story: focused on a man with no memory beyond the last 10 days and a computerized hand who discovers he is from the future. The man is being hunted by an alien race who see him as key to their survival but he soon discovers a more complex and terrifying truth...

As of right now the film does not have a director and a release date has not been set.. If you guys didn't know (Demon with a Glass Hand), is one of two Outer Limits stories that James Cameron and Gale Anne Hurd lifted from - the other being (Soldier) both written by Harlan Ellison.. Apparently the original Terminator was based on these two episodes... So much so that Cameron and Hurd had to acknowledge Ellison's work in the credits of The Terminator...

It appears that Paramount Pictures have confirmed that the next installment of Friday The 13th will be in 3D... Yesterday when the studio was announcing the upcoming films for 2015 'Friday The 13th In 3D', was on the list.. So does this mean the flick will still be found footage? I don't believe this will be a remake of Friday 3, but probably more of a stand-alone film..

A while back the film was pushed out of it's March 13th release date to November 13th, 2015.. I'm guessing that David Bruckner is still the director, but at this point who the hell knows..

6.19 'Paranormal Activity 5' Gets The Boot:




It appears that Paramount Pictures has once again moved the release date for 'Paranormal Activity 5', the film was set to be release October 24th of this year.. But now without any reason given the studio has moved the film to 2016, now I'm assuming to give the writers time to come up with a better script? But who knows, Paramount never offers up any real concrete details when it comes to these films... Even though it's clear that the popularity of the paranormal activity franchise is dying fast.. I believe the franchise still has a little life left in it...

6.19 DVD/Blu-ray Details For 'MOTEL HELL':




Press Release: People come from far and wide to sample Farmer Vincent’s distinctively flavored dried, smoked sausages, but one might well ask why there are so few people staying at the nearby kitschy Motel Hello. Also, have you ever wondered about the secret ingredients that make his meats taste so darn good? The ‘80s cult classic horror-comedy film MOTEL HELL, directed by Kevin Connor (At The Earth’s Core, The House Where Evil Dwells) takes on a frighteningly funny look into the different kinds of critters that make up Farmer Vincent’s fritters with plenty of surprises.

On August 12, 2014, Shout! Factory is bringing MOTEL HELL Collector’s Edition Blu-ray+ DVD combo pack to home entertainment shelves in the U.S and Canada. Packed with insightful bonus content and all-new interviews, this definitive collector’s edition also contains a collectible cover, featuring newly rendered retro-style artwork, a reversible cover wrap with original theatrical key art. A must-have for collectors and horror enthusiasts, MOTEL HELL Collector’s Edition Blu-ray+DVD combo packed is priced to own at $29.93 SRP.

A film by Kevin Connor, this crazy chiller stars Rory Calhoun (Angel), Paul Linke (CHiPS), Nancy Parsons (Porky’s), Nina Axelrod (Cobra), and legendary DJ Wolfman Jack. While many of its contemporaries were literally trying to scare the wits out of people, MOTEL HELL balanced horror with humor, making audiences cringe and laugh at its lurid tale. A modest success upon its theatrical release, video rentals and cable showings have kept it alive and solidified its slasher status. Its creepy chainsaw battle still excites today.

Farmer Vincent Smith (Rory Calhoun) and his sister Ida (Nancy Parsons) run the respectable Motel Hello where they also produce and sell popular meat products. But the wonderful flavor that makes up Vincent’s locally legendary smoked meats has a special ingredient. Their secret garden is filled with “animals” that they ambush, capture, and raise buried in the earth. But when the seemingly kindly couple, who gleefully dispatch their victims with aplomb, take in and care for a young woman (Nina Axelrod) who survived a motorcycle accident, she creates a rivalry between Vincent and his unsuspecting, slow-witted sheriff brother (Paul Linke) for her affection. Will the sibling squabble unravel Vincent and Ida’s undercover enterprise?

Special Features:

* NEW Audio Commentary with director Kevin Connor, moderated by filmmaker Dave Parker
* NEW It Takes All Kinds: The Making of MOTEL HELL featuring interviews with director Kevin Connor, producers/writers Robert Jaffe and Steven Charles Jaffe and actor Marc Silver

* From Glamour to Gore: An interview with actress Rosanne Katon
* Ida, Be Thy Name: A look back at MOTEL HELL’s frightful female protagonist Ida Smith
