31 Days Of Horror (Day 1): The Evil Dead

The air is cool, the sky is red, and the leaves pave our walkways with soothing autumn colors. That could only mean one thing  — It's October. For me it's the start of everything horror. Haunted houses, scary mazes, halloween/costume parties, and horror films which all come together to fill our hearts with terror and fright. What more could you want?

This year I decided to start a 31 Days of Horror movie marathon. By this I mean, I will watch a horror film every day; some of which will be my choosing while others will be selected randomly. I tried this last year with a 25 Days of Christmas marathon, but that failed miserably. So, I thought I'd give it a shot with something I actually enjoy! 

Let the fun begin!

Another Horror Remake: Chilling Trailer For The Town That Dreaded Sundown


I, like most of you, am tired of the lack of originality that seems to come with the horror genre. We constantly are given unnecessary remakes and over saturated subgenres (Found-footage, paranormal, etc.) There have been several films that have tried to break free from this cycle of lackluster films, but for the most part they fall flat on their face.

Here we are again with a remake that may change our ideas of what a remake is. Check out the trailer for the upcoming film The Town That Dreaded Sundown. 

The Beloved Space Bandit Chris Pratt Will Host SNL's Season Premiere


In an effort to save the galaxy once more, Guardian of the Galaxy's star Chris Pratt has been chosen as host to kick off Saturday Night Live's 40th season premiere. 

The show will air September 27, 2014. Alongside, Pratt Ariana Grande will make her debut on the show as the musical guest!

The following week comedian Sarah Silverman will take on hosting duties with Maroon 5 as musical guest.

It makes me proud to see an actor like Chris Pratt going so far. His talent has been rewarded and is completely deserving of all the praise that comes with it. A once under appreciated and unknown actor, Chris Pratt is now the star of many box office and television hits. 

Be sure to watch Pratt star in the seventh and final season of NBC's Parks & Recreations. He will also be starring in the much anticipated film Jurassic World which hits theaters June 2015.

Simon Pegg Talks Robert Orci!


Let's take out our Delorean back to what seems like a million years ago. Man does time fly. Back in May it was announced that Robert Orci would be directing the third installment of the Star Trek franchise. Other than a name being attached not much else was said. Well, until now. 

In an interview with BBC, actor Simon Pegg, who plays Scotty, said that Orci taking over the third film "makes perfect sense." 

Pegg stated, "I'm really happy he's doing it as it's kept within the family kind of thing, it's not somebody coming in from outside. Bob's been there since the first Star Trek - by that I mean the 2009 one - so it seemed to make perfect sense that he come in as a director on this one because he gets it. He was always the most Trekkie of all of those guys anyway, he's always understood the story the best so it's great that he's going to be involved in the writing and directing."

This is exciting. It may be small, but it does bring hope that this film will be as successful as its predecessors. Of course, we can't really judge until we see more, but a speck of light is at least standing. 

Pegg, also claimed that even though Abrams will be busy directing the next Star Wars film. He expects to see him attached in some way, shape or form. 

"I don't think JJ would be able to let it completely go because that's not in his nature."

This only adds to the reassurance of what could be a great film. I can't wait to see more as the film develops.

Stay tuned!

Ivan Reitman And His Future With Ghostbusters: If Any


A few days ago Comingsoon.net had the chance to sit down in an interview with director, Ivan Reitman where they spoke about Reitmans recent release "Draft Day." BUT we're not here to talk about that now are we? 

At the end of the interview Reitman was asked about his future with the third installment of Ghostbusters. Sadly, the answer was practically "none at all," but hey it's worth asking right? He continued by explaining why he declined to direct the next Ghostbusters film. Don't close page just yet. He will still be involved! I mean it is his movie after all. 

"I am very involved. I'm a producer of the film," he told them. "I wasn't giving it all up. I suddenly felt that Ghostbusters didn't necessarily need me as a director, at least I didn't need to direct Ghostbusters, let me put it that way. Having done the other two and with the passing of Harold and with Bill Murray seeming disinterested being in it, I thought it was better for me just to produce it and to make sure we're going to have the quality and style of what is appropriate for another version of that film. But the franchise could benefit from somebody else's point of view. I've done it twice before and it will be great to get somebody else to lend a hand as well."
They continued by asking him about the development of the upcoming sequel to his 1988 comedy, Twins. 

Reitman continued, "I'd say it's very much in the development stage and it's now caught up in the middle of studio stuff," he explained. 

Whether it be in Ghostbusters or Twins (two) we will have some fun stuff to look forward to. 

After all it is Reitman we're talking about. This man has given us some films that I'm sure we've had some of our best times with.
