‘Van Helsing’ Reboot Reportedly Has Chosen It’s Star
The “Dark Universe” didn’t exactly get off to a good start with The Mummy, but Universal won’t let the franchise die, with everything from The Wolfman to The Hunchback of Notre Dame getting adaptations. I’d be more shocked than Frankenstein’s Monster if even half these films actually get made, but who knows, I’m no fortune teller. Out of the five or six films slated to come out, the only one I really felt any amount of excitement for was Van Helsing. The whole concept of an international monster hunter is a neat idea, and the 2004 adaptation didn’t really do the concept justice. Well that excitement’s sunk into the Black Lagoon with the announcement that Magic Mike pretty boy Channing Tatum is reportedly up for the role. Best known for being the worst part of The Hateful Eight and being the most meh part of 21 Jump Street, Tatum’s casting shows both that Universal hasn’t learned dick from The Mummy

Blumhouse Will Produce The New ‘Spawn’ Movie
Spawn has had a difficult time making it to the big screen in years past, but with producing powerhouse Blumhouse given the reigns, the chances of seeing everyones favorite vigilante demon on the big screen is higher than ever. With a script from original Spawn Comic Writer Todd McFarlane, this could be the hard R big budget film Spawn fans have been waiting for. While there was a previous film adaptation released in ’97 it’s probably best left in the dustbin of history. The HBO animated series, which ran for a few years in the late 90’s, was better, but still not the balls to the wall live action gore fest that fans crave. Another animated series, revealed back in ’09, has yet to be released at all. Blumhouse is more well known for their tightly budgeted and independent films than comic book blockbusters, so here’s hoping they give Spawn the attention to detail it deserves. Because if there’s anything

A Quartet Of Quintessential Stephen King Films To Be Featured In A New Blu-ray Collection
As is the case with most of you, my Little Monsters, I am eagerly awaiting the upcoming release of cinematic fare by that Master of the Macabre, Stephen King. We have The Dark Tower coming out on August 4th and IT which is due out on September 8th. But four iconic King horror films will also be released as a collection somewhere in between these two highly anticipated theatrical releases. The 1979 adaptation of Salem’s Lot, Stanley Kubrick’s film version of The Shining, King’s second anthology film, Cat’s Eye, and the original 1989 mini-series adaptation of IT are being compiled for a Blu-ray collection called the “King og Horror Collection”. Granted, each of these adaptations have already been released independently, but such a collection would be a great way to get all the films in one place and would also make a perfect gift to provide newer fans a look at how some of King’s nightmarish stories have been translated
