Friday Night. Re-Cap. Let's Do This.

Movie News

A little quite here this week, but there were several things to note.

First, Tom Savini is making his return to fx in the Aussie film Redd Inc.

Rob Zombie released photos of some creatures for his next movie Lords of Salem

Fright Night released a clip of Colin Farrell being creepy, although I think its creepy whenever he speaks without his Irish brogue

Two indie movies looking for fan $$$ to help them make their films. First is the talented Jovanka Vuckovic’s (I misspelled that 4 times) very promising sounding The Captured Bird and the schlock-horror-tromaesque-killer turkey movie sequel to Thankskilling.  Thankskilling (clip here) has been come a staple in my office the day before the holiday. It plays on a loop, just so when people walk I get to see them do a double take and half laugh “what the hell are you watching”

Trailers

The Del Toro backed remake of Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark got a trailer this week

Wrong Turn 4 showed us their NSFW teaser trailer

After nearly a full year since its first trailer premiered over at bloody, we finally get a new trailer for the Troma Film Father’s Day.  I am interested.

Greg, our music writer, is also a horror hound, and he sniffed out some movies that are out of print or unavailable to find in the US for you to check out

What do Steven King, Stan Winston, and Michael Jackson have in common? They are all on our list of horror music videos (for the young’uns in the audience, that is what Mtv played before the played Teen Wolf) for the same video. No it is not Thriller

Movie Reviews

Scott’s reviews this week took him around Europe. He checked out the sexy German vamp flick We Are The Night, British based Hammer Studios Irish located film Wake Wood, and a land that once had colonies made up of immigrants from all over Europe, the US movie Fertile Ground.  Wow, I was really reaching on that one wasn’t I.  Moving along now……..

Theater

We checked out Shakespeares’ Hamlet. Wait no, it was  Zombie Joe’s Underground Theaters performance of Hamlet: Prince of Darkness.  I get them confused all the time

A Singing Sloth? That must be music to the ears. Richard Donner talks a little about a Goonies musical

Mortal Kombat announces a new downloadable character

Alice: Madness Returns continues to make me wish I was a gamer and makes me hope that American Magee makes this into an animate film for me to enjoy

I think that covers us for the week.  Thanks for reading and as always, all the music, gaming, movie , etc… news from the week is available here
