KEVIN SMITH DOES HORROR?

Kevin Smith is making a horror film.

Let that sink in a little bit.

Yes, there's been rumors about it ever since he mentioned it jokingly at the recent Wizard-World event, but it's been confirmed by the man himself on his website-

"...it'll be pretty different from anything else I've done thus far - that much I can tell you. There may be a few chuckles in it along the way, but it won't be comedy-horror. It'll be chills and gore."

I'm sure you're all wondering how his style will work for the genre. Look- I love (most of) his movies and all- but he's hardly known for his interesting camerawork. Remember that fight from Dogma? Still, it's something different, and I think we'll all be happy as long as he steps away from his Jersey trilogy. (uh, quintilogy? Sextology?) The film's not going to be released for at least 2 years, so we've all got a lot of time to speculate on its merits before it's even made.

No word on if Jay and Silent Bob will show up like in that horrible Scream 3 appearance. Snoogans.

I heard his next project would be a sci-fi film (same humor as Jay and Silent Bob but not to involve the characters), Ranger Danger and the Danger Rangers! eek!

There's another article on it.

Since it's a Smith film, I'll be looking forward to it.

Two things- 1) Smith rocks, and 2) there is no way he could be worse than Uwe Boll.

True, but I don't want a bunch of yammering talking heads, like he's making a Scream film.

I heard about this back in August directly from the man himself when he came down here. I was a little surprised but I was also very interested. I'd like to see what he'd do with horror.

Good point, Rider. If all else fails, we can just imagine it being Clerks with gore.
