Also, every Cthulu-ite knows that all the evil stuff happens in New England, not on the beautiful Oregon coast.
Yeah, but in horror movies these days, the Pacific Northwest is the new New England on Miskatonic.
ION, there's another shot at a really bad Lovecraft movie...and it looks like Tori Spelling getting eaten by Cthulhu will move from my idle musings to actuality.
It only has a budget of $450,000. That's going to make even a single tentacle pretty rare and expensive for the movie. We'll see what happens.
Also? The cast of the Rent movie was on Regis and Kelly this morning singing 525,600 Minutes. Te Diggs and Rosario Dawson can really sing. And the woman who R&B's out is absolutely amazing. Gave me chills when her moment to shine came up.
Hmmm, I don't recall any gay college professors from "The Shadow over Innsmouth." But you gotta love a movie that features, as Lovecraft put it, "Earth's supreme horror."
And it has Cthulhu as well!
Funny AND birthdaying! Happy Birthday, Matt!
The Dark is Rising is being adapted for film.
A tentative yay? But
Hodge, the Academy Award-nominated writer of Trainspotting, will adapt the story of Will Stanton
is wrong on a whole bunch of levels.
I never would have called that one.
Oh, wait, yes I would've. I mean, it's the obvious next step after Lion Witch and His Dark Materials. Next will be The Book of Three, is my guess. Or maybe they'll ape Disney and jump straight to The Black Cauldron, only not animated (I hope).
Kids fantasy is in style! Which, by the way, is a big "yay" for me, since it's one of my favorite genres. So I'm not complaining.
Just got back from A History of Violence.
Viggo was good. Damn good. I loved the pacing and the tension. The ending bothered me somewhat. After the obvious climax of the film, I felt there was only one way to go and that may have been towards cheesiness. William Hurt annoyed me.
But damn. Viggo. Pretty.
William Hurt annoyed me.
William Hurt always annoys me. To this day, I still have not seen the movie Michael all the way through because Hurt's performance in it puts me to sleep every. single. time.
Seriously. I've tried while awake for only a few hours, and with fresh coffee in me. SNOOOOOOOORE.
