Anyway,

POLTERGEIST

According to THR, the writing duo of Stiles White and Juliet Snowden, both credited with creating the screenplay for the upcoming THE BIRDS remake, have been tapped pen the redo of Tobe Hooper's classic.

Night of the Demons

Here's the synopsis; Angela Feld is throwing the Halloween party to end all Halloween parties at the infamous Broussard Mansion in New Orleans, where dark events transpired almost a century ago. But when the packed party gets busted by the police, Angela and her friends Maddie, Lily, Suzanne, Colin, Dex and Jason are the only ones left behind. Soon Colin and Angela make a grisly discovery in the basement and inexplicable events start to take place. With the mansion gates mysteriously locked, the seven find themselves trapped for the night...and soon they're fighting ancient demons for their very souls .

Oh don't get me started on remakes that are due.

The Wolfman might be decent though.

That does look decent from the trailer actually. I wasn't big on the original anyway.

A trailer is out for the Wolf Man remake?

I saw a bootleg trailer from a comic convention that was up online a few weeks ago. Might be able to find it still.

Yeah, I searched on Youtube and it seems all of the ones I found were taken down because of copyright issues. 🙁

The amount of classics that get remade or are getting remade is pathetic. I'm sorry but i don't believe remakes should happen there's no need and imo it's ruining the horror genre.

Some remakes are ok. Just think if we never had remakes, The Thing wouldn't of been made. Same with the better version of The Hills Have Eyes.

Or Hitchcock's classic The Man Who Knew Too Much!

Wow, did one of my posts just get deleted because I can't find it in the only two topics I replied to in here...

Halloween II

A few months ago it was announced that Dimension Films' Bob Weinstein was getting Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo to helm a follow-up to Rob Zombie's remake. Rue Morgue Magazine spoke to the pair who confirm "it's a proposition we couldn't refuse." Maury explains they're reverent of Zombie's re-imagining of Michael Myers and they're out to put their stamp on the character not copy what came before them. "Therefore, our vision will be done with upmost respect, with a continuity of Zombie's work but also a real evolution of the world he set in place."

At least they got good film makers this time around, the remake of Halloween was terrible. Inside creators making Halloween II, nice!!

As if they would bother.

Pardon?

As if they would bother making a shitty sequel to a shitty remake.

They made the nastiest new-age horror film to date and now they are making Halloween 2? Thats just wrong.

They could make it their own and make it fantastic. Doesn't mean they are doing something below themselves. Halloween 2, the original was not exactly a masterpiece in horror, so a new Halloween II could be good even if it's a sequel to the horrible remake version of Halloween.

Oh, Wolfman remake news, Danny Elfman will be doing the score music for the remake film. Can't wait, adore his music.

I wouldn't give a hoot if they remade a film in the states or even did a sequel to a film like The Strangers, but come on, to have their name have something to do with Rob Zombie's remake is a disgrace to both the Inside directors and the whole Horror genre. Zombie's remake is pure dreck and should be laughed at by all. I will be so dissapointed if they follow up his remake.

I know they could make a great film. But they should make a better film.

Well looks like they are, so let's just hope they can bring something new to it and make it a classic compared to Zombie's piece of rubbish. Or it falls through and they don't.

Nah they'll make a good film but man this just sucks, they could make a really good different film. Give them the Hellraiser remake I say.

That would be good! Funny you say that, they were actually going to write and direct it but are no longer doing Hellraiser. Unless that is what you meant. So the company gave them Halloween 2 to do apparently.

Yeah thats what I meant, how cool would that have been?

Like the Ils directors, they should maybe do a remake in the US. The Eye remake was decent.

If they don't direct this new Halloween, I won't bother seeing it. The first was pathetic.
