Welcome friends. Today has been a tough day for horror. Seeing as it's April 1, everyone decided to post false news stories and I got to spend the majority of my day sorting out the true from the false. These stories below are indeed true. Anyhow, read on for what I dug up for you
Trick 'R' Treat - While I don't have much for you, I did get something. Ever since the first trailer for Trick 'R' Treat was shown, it built a ton of hype. Then we had to wait for what seemed like ages, only to find that the schmucks over at WB decided to dump it to disc. Still, this didn't manage to detract from it too much as it caught on and became a success anyhow. Now comes word that Michael Dougherty posted on Twitter (well before April Fools btw) three simple words "Sam WILL return..." I sincerely hope this is true as I loved the first and can't wait for a second.
Piranha 3DD - Well, seems the Thailand story has been abandoned for a far more amusing and far fetched premise. I really liked the first Piranha as it was good, cheesy over the top fun. The sequel now seems to be continuing in the same vein.
"The piranha this time make their way into swimming pools, pipes, plumping and such at a newly opened waterpark named "Wilderness Waters"! The race is on to save the town from these flesh-eating creatures that are leaving a bloodbath in their wake."
In theaters November 23, Dimension Films is working on ensuring a "real" 3-dimensional experience.
Lords Of Salem - Well, Bloody Disgusting got their hands on some interesting info today. It's an expanded synopsis for the new Rob Zombie film. While it doesn't really reveal much we don't already know, it does expands the mythos a tiny bit.
"The story is about a local DJ who mistakenly unleashes a hellish curse on the town. 300 years earlier on the very streets of Salem that the townspeople walk on today, innocent folks were rounded up from their homes, convicted of being witches and sentenced to death. The Lords of Salem ran the town with an iron fist, but four witches who were tortured and killed in secrecy vowed that one day they would be back for revenge."
Shooting is set to begin in May in Massachusetts. Zombie has been vigorously scouting locations and has found some pretty damn creepy ones including a Gothic cemetery that I can't wait to see what he does with.
