This has been both fun and disturbing to watch at the same time. At some point yesterday, Quint over at Ain't it Cool News posted an item about a rumor that was starting to make the rounds about how Terry Gilliam might be able to work around Heath Ledger's absence from the remainder of the "Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus" shoot ... As Quint himself notes, the rumor appears…

 

Tragedy compounded by tragedy, Twitch is reporting that Terry Gilliam's current film, "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus" has been shut down in the wake of Heath Ledger's death ... The production had reportedly just wrapped U.K. shooting and was planning a move to Vancouver for FX work. The entire crew there has been told to stand down with no further information as to when or if things will start…

 

George A. Romero has released an exclusive trailer for his latest, "Diary of the Dead" on his MySpace page, as well as an announcement for a pretty exciting contest ... I like the look of this. As I've said previously, these video-P.O.V. movies are going to be the way to go for good scars for the next little while. Trailer: Diary of the Dead - Exclusive TrailerAdd to…

 

(via Gizmodo) Video clip of David Lynch expressing his feelings on people watching movies on their iPhones (soundtrack remixed as an Apple ad with hilarious results) ... Just for the record, I'm gonna have to agree with Mr. Lynch on this one. Video…

 

(via Twitch) Twitch is reporting that Neil Marshall’s "Doomsday" is scheduled for Release on March 14th ... Quite a large chunk of our "GallowWalker" crew headed down to Cape Town (yes, it takes place in Scotland and was partially shot in Cape Town, South Africa ... that's a whole other story) at wrap (and some before) to work on this, including the immensely talented Paul Hyett. Simon Bowles was…

 

(via L.A. Times) The Los Angleles Times are reporting that with Warner Brothers' announcement yesterday that they would be exclusively going with Blu-Ray for their catalogue, that DVD Wars are done now. HD-DVD still has Paramount ("Raiders of the Lost Ark" anyone?), and Microsoft behind it, but who knows ... The fact that the HD-DVD group canceled a news conference that was scheduled for tomorrow seems to have a…

 

While I'm not one to fly off the handle over things I happen to stumble across on IMDB (okay, well, I am actually), why, oh why would you think it's necessary to remake "Spider Baby"?!?!? Anyway, it's from the director who brought you "Night of the Living Dead 3D" with Sid Haig, who was in the original "Spider Baby", and it looks like they've induced Jack Hill with…

 

(via AICN) This one snuck up on me, I hadn't heard anything about it until today (which is strange because it is a zombie film after all). I have to admit, I've been looking forward to "Cloverfield", but my viewing experience is now going to be tainted with anticipation for "[REC]" ... Ain’t it Cool is reporting that there’s already an American remake in the works for this…

 

(via Boing Boing) Either this guy has a dementedly wild sense of humor, or the world just got a whole lot more interesting (I'm hoping for the latter); I do really like the cinematic-ness of this one line: "When police asked the man what caused the accident, his one-word answer was 'pterodactyl...'"
