Movie Poster: Evil Dead

Yahoo Movies has premiered the rather presumptuous poster for the upcoming remake (reimagining?) of Evil Dead.

I do like the look of it.  It's stark, curious, and well, that shock red title really jumps out at you. 

I dunno how accurate the text is...it'll be hard to top Jesus Camp.

Evil Dead hits theaters this coming spring.  You can head over to Yahoo and see the rather intense red band trailer also.

Movie Trailer: The Stepfather



We have another movie trailer for you and it is another remake. This time, it is a remake of the 1987 horror film The Stepfather.

This actually does not look terrible. It looks kinda good to be honest.

Little Shop of Horrors Remake!?


Declan O'Brien, the man behind such works of art as Rock Monster and Wrong Turn 3, has apparently optioned the rights to one of my all time favorite movies, Little Shop of Horrors.

He says his take will be different than the last version (I.E. bad).

This is one remake I am 100% wholeheartedly against, not too mention offended by. This will be a disaster.

Totally Recalled


Yes, it's true. Sony has announced plans to remake the scifi classic, and quite possibly my favorite Arnold movie: Total Recall.

This is an addition to the recently announced relaunch of The Never Ending Story.

God help us all.

First shots from the upcoming remake FAME








A reinvention of the original Oscar®-winning hit film, Fame follows a talented group of dancers, singers, actors, and artists over four years at the New York City High School of Performing Arts, a diverse, creative powerhouse where students from all walks of life are given a chance to live out their dreams and achieve real and lasting fame...the kind that comes only from talent, dedication, and hard work.

In an incredibly competitive atmosphere, plagued by self-doubt, each student’s passion will be put to the test. In addition to their artistic goals, they have to deal with everything else that goes along with high school, a tumultuous time full of schoolwork, deep friendships, budding romance, and self-discovery.

As each student strives for his or her moment in the spotlight, they’ll discover who among them has the innate talent and necessary discipline to succeed. With the love and support of their friends and fellow artists, they’ll find out who amongst them will achieve Fame…

The cast includes Asher Book as Marco, Kristy Flores as Rosie, Paul Iacono as Neil, Paul McGill as Kevin, Naturi Naughton as Denise, Kay Panabaker as Jenny, Kherington Payne as Alice, Collins Pennie as Malik, Walter Perez as Victor, and Anna Maria Perez de Tagle as Joy. Their instructors include Debbie Allen as Principal Simms, Charles S. Dutton as Alvin Dowd, Kelsey Grammer as Joel Cranston, Megan Mullally as Fran Rowan, and Bebe Neuwirth as Lynn Kraft.

I don't see Thomas Dekker (Sarah Connor Chronicles, Heroes) included in the cast so I guess his rumored involvement is false.

FAME opens in theaters on September 25, 2009

Karate Kid Redux Has It's Kid!

No, not Will Smith but his son Jaden. AintItCool has the news that the Will Smith produced remake will indeed feature his son. At 10 years old, he seems a bit young for this part but who knows what all they are changing for the remake. AICN also reports that the remake will be set in Bejing.

Remake Updates




Remake Madness continues.




This time? The seminal western classic High Noon. The original starred Gary Cooper as a town marshal facing a gang of killers on his own. I could actually get behind this if it's down as well as 3:10 To Yuma was.







But wait...there's more.



Grease.



Yes. Grease. Not Grease 3 as has been in the rumor mill for quite some time but a Grease remake. And they want Michelle Pfeiffer involved.




I shudder at the thought of it.
