As much as I love Disney and Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy films, I am beyond excited to read the news that Warner Bros. Pictures and DC have opened their arms to James Gunn, who is in talks to write and quite possibly direct Suicide Squad 2! The news comes via TheWrap who is currently updating […]
Leigh Whannell did some pretty crazy stuff before he got behind the camera for Insidious: Chapter 3 and his Venom-esque Upgrade. You see, Whannell is the co-creator and writer behind both SAW and Insidious, each directed by James Wan. The two films have spawned massive franchises and while Wan went on to direct The Conjuring for New […]

In the 1987 sequel… “The race is on as a colony of marsupial werewolves attempts to outwit and outlast their human counterparts. Long ago, the now-extinct marsupial […]
Don Coscarelli has been trying to get a follow-up to Bubba Ho-Tep off the ground for many years now, but one of the major hangups is that star Bruce Campbell just isn’t interested in reprising his role of Elvis/Sebastian Haff.

Director Neil Marshall (The Descent) is going much darker than Guillermo del Toro did with his upcoming Hellboy, a rated “R” reboot starring David Harbour (“Stranger Things”) as the title character.
