Studio News and Attachments

• People are incredibly, incredibly, incredibly stupid.  As in, complete fucking morons for believing that not only is GHOSTBUSTERS 3 secretly filming, but that they built a giant walking pile of trash.  Takes no genius to instantly peg this as viral marketing for the GB game.
• Kerr Smith makes no attempt to hide MY BLOODY VALENTINE’S open-ended ending, sequel inevitable.
• Josh Brolin keeps talking JONAH HEX, praises new director Jimmy Hayward, mainly because he isn’t those ‘CRANK guys’.
• Kate Beckinsale is in the new UNDERWORLD: RISE OF THE LYCANS after all…as archival footage.
• PERKIN’S 14 director Craig Singer has another user-generated horror movie set up at Warner Brothers.
• In case there was a doubt, HAUNTING IN CONNECTICUT is rated PG-13.
• Joss Whedon doesn’t seem to care what Tom Cruise has to say about his CABIN IN THE WOODS movie.

Remakes

• There is an official site for LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT up.  Does anyone ever actually go to these sites?
• Not horror, but because I admire both director’s involved, Danny Boyle has been approached for a SYMPATHY FOR LADY VENGEANCE remake.
• FRIGHT NIGHT remake gets locked up in favor of doing a HELL NIGHT remake.  Still no one cares.

Indie, Foreign and Random News

• The short film TREEVENGE has a fantastic clip out.  Since this was a slow week for Indie horror, its awesomeness toplines this section.
• Haven’t listened to it yet myself, but AICN recommends this POLTERGEIST podcast.
