TRAILER: UNDERWORLD EVOLUTION

It’s hard to deny that Len Wiseman’s Underworld had a great premise that focused on the eternal secret war between vampires and werewolves, and while it may have fallen shy of its ambitions, the sequel Underworld: Evolution seems to be much grander in scope (Nick visited the set earlier in the year and came away … Continue reading

DIRECTOR JUMPS IN BLACK LAGOON

Dear fans of classic Universal monsters: hope you liked Sahara. The Gill Man, the only major catalog creature to evade severe molestation by Stephen Sommers, will now have the same wrangler as Matthew McConaughey — Breck Eisner is helming the endlessly water-treading remake of The Creature from the Black Lagoon.

LOOKING AT ANOTHER EYE

THE SCI-FIGHT: TERMINATOR vs. JASON

The Sci-Fight was part of a subsection of CHUD way back in the day (around five years ago), back when the site’s readership was barely a decimal point of what it’s become.
