REFACING DEATH

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

LET’S DO THE HADOKEN AGAIN

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. No, this one has nothing to do with Sonny Chiba but rather the astonishingly hyper-extended video game franchise (what exactly is the difference between Super Street Fighter … Continue reading
