Still more vampire photos from Dead Cert

12 November 2009 8:51 AM, PST | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »

Producer Jonathan Sothcott sent along yet another couple of pics from his new vampire film Dead Cert, this time depicting veteran British actor Billy Murray as lead bloodsucker Dante Livenko. Sothcott and Murray also shared a couple of quick comments about the role and movie.

“To follow in the footsteps of actors such as Christopher Lee, Jack Palance, Louis Jourdan and Frank Langella is a thrill,” Murray, flashing his fangs with Loretta Basey in the first pic below, tells Fango. “This is one of the great parts, and I’m loving playing it. I am a much darker, more terrifying vampire than the Twilight audience is used too. It’s very gory.”

“Billy is one of the most underrated actors in the country,” Sothcott adds. “Someone recently described him at a meeting as simply ‘Billy Murray, English icon,’ and that’s what he is. But his vampire king is very »

Joel Silver to Remake Swamp Thing in 3-D

29 August 2009 9:00 AM, PDT | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »

During the press conference for "Whiteout," Collider had the chance to catch up with producer Joel Silver and ask him about some of his upcoming projects, which apparently include a remake of Wes Craven's 1982 film "Swamp Thing." "I'm developing a picture now that I'd like to do," he said. "I'll hopefully do 'Swamp Thing,' which is a movie we've had for a long time. We think that would be great to do in 3D." Plot of the original film: Deep in the Florida everglades, a brilliant scientist, Dr. Alec Holland (Ray Wise), and a sexy government agent, Alice Cable (Adrienne Barbeau), have developed a secret formula that could end world hunger. Little do they know, however, that their arch nemesis, Arcane (Louis Jourdan), is plotting to steal the serum for his own selfish schemes. Looting the lab and kidnapping cable, Arcane douses Holland with the chemicals and leaves him for dead. »

Blu-Ray Review: Pair of Oscar-Winning Musicals Tap to HD Beat

6 April 2009 9:49 AM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »

Blu-Ray Rating: 4.0/5.0 Chicago – Two of the most beloved musicals of all time recently made their debut on Blu-Ray with extravagant collections of special features, beautiful HD, and crystal clear audio. All musical fans will want to add the Best Picture-winning “An American in Paris” and “Gigi” to their Blu-Ray collection.

One of my favorite musicals, 1951’s “An American in Paris,” an Oscar-winner for Best Picture, Art Direction, Cinematography, Costume Design, Score, and Screenplay, is such an essential film to the history of the musical genre that it seems like a no-brainer for HD Blu-Ray. It’s an undeniable classic featuring one of the great stars of the musical, Gene Kelly, at his athletic peak and includes the debut of the magical Leslie Caron.

An American in Paris was released on Blu-Ray on March 31st, 2009.

As if Kelly and Caron weren’t enough to entice musical fans, »
