USA's 'Burn Notice' Prequel Starring Bruce Campbell Is A Go; Jeffrey Donovan To Direct



Nellie Andreeva writes:
USA has given a formal green light to the Burn Notice movie prequel starring Bruce Campbell, which will be directed by Burn Notice star Jeffrey Donovan. The two will also executive produce with Burn Notice creator Matt Nix, who wrote the movie, and the series exec producer Mikkel Bondesen. The untitled two-hour film, which was announced at this year's Comic-Con, will begin shooting in January on location in Bogota, Columbia for a premiere in Spring 2011. Burn Notice has wrapped production on Season 4, and filming on Season 5 is slated to begin shortly after the movie finishes shooting.

Here are more details about the Fox TV Studios-produced prequel. It is set in late 2005 and focuses on Sam Axe's (Campbell) last mission as a Navy SEAL. It begins after a faction of Colombian rebels makes trouble for the locally stationed military platoon, with Lieutenant Commander Axe being sent down to investigate. As the mission unfolds, Sam begins to uncover the dark secrets of the area, learning the truth about sacrifice, deception, and ultimately what’s worth fighting for.

Geek Gear: ‘Army Of Darkness’ My Boomstick T-Shirt

Click to enlarge image:


Empress Eve writes:
Shop smart, shop S-Mart

The t-shirt deal of the day over at RIPT Apparel today is an Army Of Darkness-inspired shirt called “My Boomstick.”

The tee, by artist D4N13L, is on sale at RIPT only for today, Saturday November 27, 2010 until tomorrow at 1AM EST.

The t-shirt is available in both men’s and women’s sizes for $10. Kids sizes are $15; Onsies are $18. You can also get the design on a Hoodie for $38 (in Men/Unisex sizes).

About the design, the artist said: Who doesn’t know Ash from the Evil Dead series? who doesn’t know what a “boomstick” is? To all those who knows this, enjoy it. All of you who don’t, shame on you!

If you’re a fan of Ash from the Evil Dead movies, you will love this shirt, which is a mock-up of an ad for a top of the line “Boomstick,” Ash’s weapon of choice in the third film, Army Of Darkness, where he held up the shotgun, proclaiming “This is my boomstick!” I love the fact that this ad from S-Mart, which is where Ash works, has a deal that if you buy the Boomstick, you buy a chainsaw for only $9.95 (the chainsaw plays a major role in this film trilogy).

Plot details emerge for the Sam Raimi produced Dibbuk Box



Jared Pacheco
writes:
Earlier this month we learned that the Sam Raimi produced DIBBUK BOX would be hitting us just in time for Halloween next year. Now that's all fine and dandy... but what is this bad larry about?

Actually we know what it's about, give or take... What we really want to know is some details! And guess what folks, we've got exactly that for you all today courtesy of the guys over at Blooody-Disgusting. Why beat around the bush any longer? Check it:

The film will follow Clyde Breneck and his 10-year-old daughter, Em, who purchases an antique box at a yard sale (while the real-life story it took place on Ebay). With the box, Em accidentally releases an ancient spirit that has one goal: to devour her. Clyde must team work with his ex-wife to put an end to the curse.

Interesting. So we've got the basic 'evil-spirit-after-child' plotline going on. I can dig it. Hell, at least Sam Raimi has his hands in on this one. Ole Bornedal is taking on the directing duties for DIBBUK BOX with a script from Juliet Snowden & Stiles White. This shite has a release date pegged of October 28, 2011 so expect more on DIBBUK BOX soon!

Bruce Campbell | Cracked.com



Bruce Campbell, according to both IMDB and Wikipedia, is an American film & television actor. This is a bald-faced lie, as he is in fact the second coming of God.

Just The Facts
  1. Bruce Campbell is God. Don't act like you didn't know that.
  2. Bruce Campbell is famous for butchering hordes of zombies while Sam Raimi and his documentary crew film it.
  3. Bruce Campbell pondered becoming a professional wrestler but no one was able to perform a simple chinlock on him.
  4. Ignore the insane ramblings of Wikipedia, these are all the real true facts about Bruce Almighty. The real one, not the bendy douchebag.

ArrowInTheHead.com - Dissecting The Director: Sam Raimi



Marcey Papandrea writes:
There are two things which come to mind when the words Sam Raimi appear, horror and Spider-man. Certainly for me, horror comes to mind first, as that is how I first discovered him (at that time Spider-man wasn't even a glimmer in his eye). What sets him aside from the other director's who have tackled the genre, is his amazing ability to balance horror and comedy successfully. While not all of his films have that comedy element, those that do tend to be the ones we remember. He is a very versatile director, having dipped his feet in many other genres including crime, adventure and the western. He has proven himself as quite the talent, one that continuously impresses and entertains me.

In memoriam: producer Dino De Laurentiis



Dino De Laurentiis, producer of such films as Barbarella, The Dead Zone and Hannibal, has sadly passed away.

Producing more than 500 movies over almost 60 years, Dino De Laurentiis became famous for his grand, sweeping epics such as The Bible: In The Beginning, Battle Of The Bulge and the 1976 remake of King Kong.

Nevertheless, De Laurentiis’ most interesting and fondly remembered films were smaller in scale. 1973’s Serpico, directed by Sidney Lumet, boasted a remarkable performance from Al Pacino, while 1983’s The Dead Zone paired director David Cronenberg with Christopher Walken in unforgettable style.

Inevitably for such a prolific producer, not everything De Laurentiis’ fingers touched turned to gold – Flash Gordon, Dune and Maximum Overdrive (writer Stephen King’s first and only directorial credit) all underperformed at the box office – films such as Death Wish, King Kong and, most recently, Hannibal, were huge commercial successes.

De Laurentiis also produced such cult classics as Barbarella, Sam Raimi’s classic sequels Evil Dead 2 and Army Of Darkness, and the Wachowski brothers’ noirish debut, Bound.

Dino De Laurentiis died today, aged 91.

SciFiNow - Interview: Bruce Campbell talks about the original Evil Dead and the planned remake…



Interview Excerpt:
Can you discuss the progress of the fourth Evil Dead movie?

Bruce Campbell: Well, that one – people are going to have to wait on that one, because Sam and I are still working. I have a day job now with a TV show called Burn Notice and that takes up about seven or eight months out of my year, so it doesn’t leave a lot of time to make an Evil Dead movie in between. Each of those movies takes about two years. And Sam, as you know, is making a lot of A pictures right now. He’s got some time ahead of him before we can do that. Actually, we are kind of pitching towards a remake, though, much more seriously. We now have a story for the remake and we might go into production as early as next year.

Do you have a script ready for that, then?

Bruce Campbell: We have a story, not a script. We’re slowly getting there.

Fangoria: New “INTRUDER” discs and more coming from Synapse Films



Fango got some bloody good news from Don May Jr. of Synapse Films, who gave us the scoop on a trio of titles the company has acquired for disc release next year. One of them is Scott Spiegel’s INTRUDER, the supermarket slasher flick that marked the first official credit for KNB EFX.

INTRUDER (pictured), first released in 1989, was produced by Lawrence Bender prior to his long association with Quentin Tarantino and features brief appearances by Sam and Ted Raimi and Bruce Campbell. “We have uncovered the the original film materials,” May tells Fango, “and are in the process of scanning the uncut version in 2K HD. It’s early, for sure, but we plan on some exciting extras to be produced by Michael Felsher’s Red Shirt Pictures. This one deserves a place on every gore fan’s shelf and to be remastered properly, and is a nice companion to our upcoming release of THOU SHALL NOT KILL…EXCEPT release [also made by the Raimi camp]. We’re planning a Blu-ray and DVD release for 2011.”
