CHUD reader Stew sends us these four pictures with the attached note: This is Stew from the … Continue reading →

Anyone who’s been following our coverage of Grind House (catch up RIGHT HERE!) knows who they can expect to see killing and/or killed by the crazed zombies of Robert Rodriguez’s Project Terror (which the trade is still calling Planet Terror, but we’re pretty sure it’s Project), but the news has finally arrived in an official … Continue reading →
If you haven’t been following the video production diaries on Hot Fuzz, the follow-up from the Shaun of the Dead crew, now’s a good time to start. The gang have been bleeding little chunks of on-set info throughout filming (it’ll never be enough until we get the whole movie!), and the latest one has a … Continue reading →

Feeling like staying indoors tonight?

When I talked to Mick Garris about his episode of the Showtime Masters of Horror show, and about the series in general, he mentioned some directors they had wanted to get on board, but who just weren’t available. “Guillermo [del Toro] was going to do one but he can’t because they’re constantly throwing giant studio … Continue reading →
The dude who wrote the superhero drama Tonight, He Comes must be tearing his hair out in huge gruesome chunks, scalp flaps and all. For years the script kicked around various studios and (transcending its terrible title) gained a reputation for being one of the best unproduced screenplays… a status it still retains. The Sony … Continue reading →
Woody Allen’s next film (not Scoop, hitting theaters this year. His next, next film, which is still not officially titled) will have some bright lights on the marquee: Colin Farrell and Ewan McGregor are starring. The film will be shot in London, Woody’s third picture in a row there. He was set to make a … Continue reading →
