I don’t find most horror movies scary; I’m not that worried about a ghost coming out of my TV or something. I do react well to jump scares, though – there’s a jump scare in 8 Below that had me almost piss my pants. But when it comes to “scary” movies… well, United 93 is … Continue reading
The new Will Smith movie, I Am Legend, has been filming all over New York City the last few weeks, and I have run across the production a number of times. Today they happened to be shooting one block from my office, so I scampered over to try to get a better look at what … Continue reading
I don’t know what else to say except that the Hot Fuzz site is live, and that the image above is taken from there. There is also a gallery of other images and a handy dandy link to all the video diaries. I imagine that this site will get hopping soon, but in the meantime … Continue reading

Last week Superman Returns limped to 200 million in the US, if you believe the numbers Warner Bros is reporting. With that “victory” fresh, the studio has announced a deal with Bryan Singer to make a sequel to the film for release in 2009. This deal is something everyone has been speculating on since ComiCon, … Continue reading
The last time we ran a story on the updated version of Faces of Death was in May of 2005, before Don Murphy – who is producing the new film – and I made up at the San Diego Comic Con that summer. Now there’s new movement on the project, with Rogue Pictures on board … Continue reading
Jean-Claude Van Damme fans, prepare to start a petition campaign. The goal of the petition will be to secure Jean-Claude a cameo in the new Street Fighter movie.
