In a time? when hellhounds will roam the Earth? only one man can save us? Ricky Schroder? Apparently that?s Sci-Fi?s idea of a good movie trailer, as Ricky ?Silver Spoons? Schroder has been tapped to direct Hellhounds, a Sci-Fi Original TV movie that will air next year. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the project will begin shooting Sunday in Romania with long-time Schroder collaborators Robert Halmi Jr. and Robert Halmi Sr. executive producing (Robert Halmi III could not be reached for comment and IV is vacationing in Turks and Caicos after wrapping his shoot on Robert Halmi: The Movie: The Sequel). Hellhounds is set to star Scott Elrod and is set in the year 500 B.C., when a Greek warrior fights against the hellhounds of Hades to rescue his bride from the Underworld and bring her back to life. And this time ? it?s personal.
