Scary Movie Weekend Roundup with MVP!

MVP releases one sheet. Design by S.Brent Bowers and Streebo.We had another productive weekend aboard the Mutantville Mothership. Streebo spent most of the week doing fine edits on the assembly of G.H.O.S.T. Friday night, Streebo and Brent had a marathon poster designing session which resulted in the creation of not one – but two new one sheets for SCARECROW AT MIDNIGHT. Sunday, Streebo and composer Alex Maudlin met to discuss the progress on the score for SCARECROW AT MIDNIGHT. The premiere of SCARECROW AT MIDNIGHT is just around the corner.  Be sure to buy your tickets for the Twelfth Annual Nevermore Film Festival now.

Meanwhile, in the Horror World:

Rumors abound that there is a sequel in the works for Michele Saovi’s cult classic DELLAMORTE DELLAMORE aka CEMETARY MAN.

Steve Niles’ (writer of 30 DAYS OF NIGHT) take on Frankenstein, WAKE THE DEAD, has been optioned by none other than legendary guitarist Slash!

The most interesting news coming out of Sundance this week is that Kevin Smith (CLERKS, MALLRATS, COP OUT) is taking his horror film – RED STATE – on the road! That’s right, Kevin Smith plans to distribute RED STATE himself – allowing the movie to play in select cities across the nation.

The script to a proposed EVIL DEAD remake is supposedly making the rounds on producer Rob Tapert’s desk.

Saw 3D makes the leap to DVD as SAW: THE FINAL CHAPTER.

Speaking of SAW, the first clip from SAW creator James Wan’s new film INSIDIOUS, has hit the net.

Be sure to check out Streebo’s review of the theatrical version of SAW 3D on Youtube:

The Crazies

The Crazies

That’s right, The Crazies is being released on DVD on June 29th, 2010. I’m sure I’ll remember this film for a long time because we (Mutantville) saw it  in the theater with the legendary Matthew Ewald.

For the most part I liked it. The camera angles were good. Nice camera movement. Great zombie or infected make up though. It is a remake of the George A. Romero film. You’ll notice on the credits that Romero was an executive producer on the film. The original film came out in 1973. To make the new film period, everyone walks around in bell bottom pants to the disco soundtrack. Ok, none of that last sentence is true. :)

If you’re thinking about picking it up on DVD, Help us out and get it here. We greatly appreciate the assistance!

The Crazies Movie Review

With its lurid title and anti-government paranoia, The Crazies bears the stamps of the 1970s original from the start, but it fits our times remarkably well. We’re discovering poison in baby formula from China, so how much of a leap is …

The Crazies | DVD | Review | The A.V. Club

George Romero’s 1973 horror movie, reissued in advance of a new remake, isn’t one of his zombie films, but carries a similar thematic charge.
