According to ‘The Wrap’ Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is now in negotiations to both produce and star in a new reboot of the classic horror-comedy ‘Big Trouble In Little China’. Johnson has his sights set on playing the main role of Jack Burton, originally played by Kurt Russell. According to reports Ashley Miller and Zach Stenz, the writing duo who also wrote ‘X-Men: First Class’, will be penning the new version of the script. In the 1986 film, directed by John Carpenter, trucker Jack Burton gets caught in the middle of a supernatural battle in the Chinatown section of San Francisco.

On his first night in his new home, blind Vietnam Vet Ambrose (Nick Damici) and his dog Shadow are attacked. On the same night his elderly neighbor is also brutally murdered. The cops say it was an animal attack, there have been a lot of them lately. Ambrose did not see who it was, but he has an idea what it was. When the full moon comes again, he’ll be ready. In the mean time, he is determined to put the pieces together of who could be killing members of the community and the creature that killed his beloved Shadow. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a good werewolf movie, ‘Late Phases’ was just what I needed. This movie is not the usual, nonstop, action packed, gore filled werewolf movie, it takes the time to build a real story. You actually become invested in the characters and you really want justice for Shadow’s murder, damn it. Scriptwriter Eric Stolze

The movie is described as “the ultimate dichotomy of innocence vs. evil that will leave an audience questioning their own moral convictions…” Young director Natalie Bible, known for her film ‘Hemlock’, is at the helm of this project with the screenplay written by Vance Savage. Director Natalie Bible Right now one major detail has been released about the project, it has a huge cast of well known actors. I don’t think I have emphasized just how big of a list of cast members will be starring in this good vs. evil movie, it’s a veritable “who’s who” of horror. I guarantee you will recognize most, if not all, of these names. The big question is, will the cast over shadow the screenplay?

Little information has been released about the new ‘Friday the 13th’ movie that is being directed by David Bruckner (V/H/S) and written by Nick Antosca, who served as a writer for the ‘Hannibal Lecter’ series. Antosca has stated that the new movie will not be a sequel to the 2009 movie and will have different characters and be set in a different time period. It has been rumored that the film will take place in 1980’s, but that has not been confirmed. It had been rumored that it would be a found footage film. Brad Fuller (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), a producer for the 2016 film, has stated that it will in fact, NOT be found footage. I’m very happy to hear this, found footage may be considered a good, and cheap, alternative way to film, but in my opinion it’s over used and obnoxious. “I could just say that for a long time we were stalled…” Fuller continues (during
