Luke Evans Cast in The Crow Reboot!

Ok folks after months and I mean a whole lot of months of speculation and rumors on who will be portraying the unlucky Eric Draven in The Crow reboot has finally been cast! Luke Evans will fill the leather and makeup of The Crow. I will say this is actually a pretty great actor to take the role.

This reboot had a lot problems getting started with nobody getting locked down for the role. It was actually getting a big boost with having art of A-lister Bradley Cooper drawn in the role, this would likely have caused some problems with the die hard fans. It would make this film a little too mainstream and some films aren't meant for that. (this isn't one). That fell through, so we got rumors that X-Men star James McAvoy was in the running. While good idea, it wasn't meant to be. Then came my favorite choice of them all. Tom Hiddleston came into the mix with reports saying he wants to be it so bad. Well that was just internet blowing everything out of portion over a single meeting. You probably think I'm done listing off but your wrong. Last before casting was out there rumors of True Blood star Alexander Skarsgard, but those never became more than just that. So after I just explained to you the last year or so in rumors, you can see how hard it is in Hollywood.

Awesome 'Carrie' Teaser Trailer !

The first trailer for the remake of the classic film Carrie hit the web, actually looks pretty great! The film is for sure showing you they took the destruction aspect of the book to the full scale unlike the original. I love that they showed that just in the teaser trailer. Chloe is going to be amazing for the role and is really going to make a name for herself in near future, if not so already.

Carrie bloodies up the box office on March 15, 2013

NYCC: First Official Pic from Evil Dead Remake

The Evil Dead crew were at New York Comic-Con this weekend showing off the new reboot/remake and a lot of good things were said about it. They revealed a sweet creepy image of Henriette peering out of the basement hatch of the infamous cabin.

Also, the attendees were shown a special red band trailer of the remake that gave off a very familiar feel and updated feel at same time. They famous scenes with a possessed hand, raping tree, and the all famous chainsaw were included and given great applause. Pretty sweet sounding!

First Red Dawn Trailer

The first trailer for the very long delayed remake film Red Dawn has finally hit the web and I will say it actually looks pretty awesome! I had doubts over the past few years.

Red Dawn is a remake of the classic 1984 film, but the plot has been updated because the Cold War isn't going on anymore.(or is it?! hmm). The main invaders were China but they noticed China is big factor in box office so they changed them to North Korea. I think it was a good choice for this film to be delayed because Chris Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson are big stars now and can bank off that. (Sorry skinny Josh from Drake & Josh and Conner Cruise).

In Red Dawn, a city in Washington state awakens to the surreal sight of foreign paratroopers dropping from the sky – shockingly, the U.S. has been invaded and their hometown is the initial target. Quickly and without warning, the citizens find themselves prisoners and their town under enemy occupation. Determined to fight back, a group of young patriots seek refuge in the surrounding woods, training and reorganizing themselves into a guerilla group of fighters. Taking inspiration from their high school mascot, they call themselves the Wolverines, banding together to protect one another, liberate their town from its captors, and take back their freedom.

Red Dawn invades into theaters on November 21st    GO Wolverines!!!

Fletch Reboot Happening. Again.

It looks like Warner Bros. Pictures has bought the rights to make another Fletch movie. I have very little hope in the making of this movie because of all the previous attempts over the years. Many have tried making sequels, reboots, re-imaginings to Fletch and Fletch Lives, which stars Chevy Chase, but nothing has come about of those failures.

Heat Vision says: No writer or director is board, but Warners and the producers are aiming for a reimagining, not a remake, and hope to make an smart action comedy that plays out on a bigger canvas than the previous movies. 

So we will wait to see if anything happens in the future.

The Coen Brothers' True Grit Trailer

Paramount Pictures released the trailer for the Coen Brothers' remake/adaptation True Grit. The cast is quite nice with Jeff bridges, Josh Brolin, Matt Damon, Barry Pepper and newcomer Hailee Steinfled.

The film is based on the 1968 novel that ended up being a John Wayne movie in 1969. In this version Jeff Bridges will take on Wayne's role of U.S. Marshal Reuben J. "Rooster" Cogburn and the part seems cast perfectly. Also, it's nice to see Josh Brolin do another Coen Brothers' film after No Country for Old Men.

Mattie Ross, a 14-year-old girl, undertakes a quest to avenge her father's death at the hands of a drifter named Tom Chaney. Ross persuades an alcoholic marshal named Rooster Cogburn to join her in tracking down Chaney.

True Grit hits theaters on Christmas day December 25, 2010.

New Animated Tarzan coming in 3D

If you love Disney's Tarzan and really want to see a new one with more of Phil Collin's Beautiful music then your OUT of luck my friend, but if your a fan of germany-based Constantin Films and their main film series Resident Evil and Fantastic Four then your IN luck.

Variety is reporting that Constantin Films is bringing Tarzan back in animation, but Robert Kulzer and Reinhard Klooss will produce it and develop it as a CGI film in 3D. I don't know what to think this weird news because I wouldn't normally believe that a horror/action production company will make a CGI Tarzan movie.

Constantin Films in currently awaiting the release of Resident Evil: Afterlife and is starting production next month on Paul W.S. Anderson's 3D take on The Three Musketeers.

I will defiantly keep an eye on this project and update news when it becomes available.

SDCC: Alex Aja wants to Remake Maniac

The French director Alex Aja told in interviews that he would be interested in remaking the crazy gory 1980 horror film Maniac.

He said "[It's] something that I want to be involved with my long-time partner and co-writer, Greg [Levasseur], will direct. It might happen." He also said papers are not signed and no deal has been finalized, but it's something he would like to take over. 


So, the project is still just talk for now.


I hope that they get Tom Savini back to get his head blown-off. Oops. Did I ruin a scene for you. O'well. 


I like the idea of Aja directing because he did some good films including The Hills have Eyes and High Tension. Although, he didn't do so good with Mirrors. I still haven't seen Piranha 3D yet, so I will get back to you with that later.

More News to come.

Trailer of The Week - A Nightmare On Elm Street

The Trailer of the Week is the remake of the classic slasher flick from the 80s A Nightmare On Elm Street. The remake is directed by Samuel Bayer (Various music videos) and starring Jackie Earle Haley (Watchmen) as Freddy Krueger, Rooney Mara (Dare), Kyle Gallner (Jennifer's Body), Thomas Dekker (The Sara Connor Chronicles), Katie Cassidy (Black Christmas), and Clancy Brown (Highlander).

The trailer shows that they adds some cool new ideas and some classic scenes from the original. I can't believe I'm saying this, but this actually looks like a good film, even if it's with out Robert Englund.

First "The Karate Kid" Trailer

Here is the first trailer for the remake of the classic 1984 film The Karate Kid. The remake stars Jackie Chan as the new Mr. Miyagi figure and Jaden Smith as a new apprentice. The film borrows elements from the original, but adds it's own take on the story. I'm a fan of the original and it's sequels, but this remake may be either good or fail badly. Remakes never really turnout well. You decide for yourself.

Here is trailer
