--- The Fall Guy - The one classic slasher franchise from the 80s that Michael bay's shit-house production studio Platinum Dunes hadn't ruined yet was Halloween - Rob Zombie did all the ruining on his own, thank you very much - so the word that PD has their hands on the Halloween property for an all new reboot at first fills me with dread - will they find a way to stuff Michael Myers into underground tunnels like they did Jason Voorhees? - but if they can just make a damned straightforward movie out of it maybe I can cut them some slack. I don't have any reason to believe they will, but in theory I am fine with Mike getting rebooted, because Zombie got too caught up in backstory. Just drop the dude in a town full of babysitters and hit play.

--- Rear Projection - I haven't even watched this single shot edit of Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window but I can already tell just from a single frame of it that I adore it, I adore it, I adore it. What a brilliant idea.

--- Alphabet Killers - The poster for The ABCs of Death, the anthology horror film where a different director takes on a letter of the alphabet and explores a death situation thereby related - say, A is for Asphyxiation, and so on - can be seen over at BD. I feel like it's almost there but need to be slightly slicker, maybe? I like the idea. Anyway there are several awesome directors doing shorts for this thing - Ti West and Ben "Kill List" Wheatley, for starters - so I'm psyched all the same.

And his face is messed up at that.
I mean, do the producers expect this to bring them money??
JA, please don't cut Michael Bay or his shitty Platinum Dunes any slack at all. Ever. EVER! Otherwise, rock on ~
