This is the big dump. Not in the hot, sexy way but in the way that it takes ALL of our content and dumps it in one spot for you. Wait, that IS hot and sexy!

TEA TO GHOST TOWN

Any Tea Leoni fans in the house? News for you: the steady drip that’s been Leoni’s output since ’91 will remain remarkably consistent. The wife of Mulder has been cast with Ricky Gervais and Greg Kinnear in prolific writer and Spielberg go-to-guy David Koepp’s upcoming directorial effort, Ghost Town. Ghost Town (as described here in … Continue reading

BROKEN LIZARD’S GETTING SOME TAIL

Despite their recent verbal commitment to the project, there’s still not much concrete news on Broken Lizard’s Super Troopers 2. And with that lack of movement, we’re looking at a wide open horizon for the boys where any number of projects they’ve talked about in the past could fill the void. Now they have to … Continue reading

300 DAYS OF NIGHT?

Every time I look at the teaser poster for 30 Days of Night, I see 300. It’s the red, and the splatters, and the font. Oh, and the pose. The ‘based on the graphic novel’ tag has nothing to do with it, though. 30 Days of Night is indeed based on the graphic novel of … Continue reading

ZACK SNYDER TAKES THE FIFTH

MTV News asked Zack Snyder about the Watchmen casting rumors that recently popped up on Aint It Cool News: will Patrick Wilson play Nite Owl, Keanu Reeves play Dr. Manhattan and Jude Law play Ozymandias?

Scott took it well, and has already emailed with a link to the Preacher article. (Which had actually been published when I wrote the article last night — … Continue reading

CONTEST: LOVECRAFT AND MORE!

More contests! Just you try and escape our generosity. A little while ago, I got the chance to review this great disc from Lurker Films’ HP Lovecraft collection. The company’s doing such a great job of promoting films from weird masters; we just had to get in on that. The fine folks over there have … Continue reading

I AM A TRAILER

I’m one of the few people, I think, that genuinely likes The Last Man On Earth, the 1964 film version of Richard Matheson’s I Am Legend shot in Italy and starring Vincent Price. Sure, The Omega Man is fun to watch with a group, but the first act of Last Man is a good depiction … Continue reading

THE GHOST COULD RIDE AGAIN

There’s no place to be a journalist, especially a freelance one, like New York City. The sheer number of ‘press events’ held to promote everything from movies to DVDs to flat screen TVs, phones and video games is staggering. And they’ve all got free food and alcohol. Seriously, it’s like going to ‘brunch’ by hitting … Continue reading

REVIEW: OCEAN’S 13 (RUSS’ TAKE)

What do you want from a movie featuring Danny Ocean and friends? Are you looking for a clockwork heist, or a light glimpse into the cult of personality that surrounds Clooney, Pitt, et al? Stung by the dismissal of Ocean’s Twelve, Soderbergh and company have gone light on the self-referential jokes (though they’re still here, … Continue reading
