By the Power of “Grayskull”

May 13, 2009 by ShempyCat  
Filed under News


A writer has been attached to the latest He-Man adaptation to be titled “GRAYSKULL”. Warner Bros. and Silver Pictures have hired up and coming writer Evan Daugherty and it will be directed by John Stevenson (”Kung Fu Panda”).

The Hollywood Reporter describes Warner Bros. take on this latest adaptation:

A gritty fantasy and reimagines Adam as a soldier who sets off to find his destiny, happening upon the magical world of Eternia. There, Skeletor has raised a technological army and is bent on eradicating magic.

Now it sounds like this is going to be a big budget action spin through the world of Eternia for Mattel’s “Masters of the Universe” line. Prince Adam, a.k.a. He-Man better be shouting the line; “By the power of Grayskull — I have the power.” The last film adaptation featured Dolph Lundgren in the role of “He-Man”. Do you think they will stay more true to the He-Man storyline this time out?

Alien Raiders (2008) – DVD Review

April 22, 2009 by Mikey B  
Filed under Monster, Review

Alien Raiders is a pretty damned good sci-fi/horror flick that suffers from a terrible name that not only sounds like a third grader wrote it, but it gives away what the film’s about before you even hit play. I mean, it’s not like the audience wouldn’t realize what’s going on within ten minutes, but still…jeez Warner Bros. Anyway, Alien Raiders is what you’d get if Terminal Invasion had a bigger budget, a better script and took place in a supermarket instead of an air terminal…and, that’s a good thing.

Rating: ★★★★★★★★☆☆

J. Michael Straczynski is set to write the remake of the sci fi classic ‘Forbidden Planet’ for Warner Bros. The rights have been jumping all over the place and it seems to have found it’s home with the WB. The original is such an amazing film, I’m really having my doubts that this will even capture part of the essence from the original. But, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t pumped to see what they do with Robbie the Robot in the newer version. Read on for more info.

Warner Bros. is all about snatching up properties as of late. The newest one being ‘Entering Hades’ based on a novel by John Leake. If the names not enough to draw your attention the premise will, which you’ll read about after the break.

Let’s hope they don’t go pulling back again, because this film sounds like it needs to fall into the Se7en category to really work.

Trick ‘r Treat (2008)

October 11, 2008 by Mikey B  
Filed under Anthology, Review

I’ve just had a theatrical experience, and I don’t really know how to put this down properly, so bear with me as I free form my thoughts on the film that I just witnessed. I just got home from the opening night of the LA Screamfest, and what an opening it was. Trick ‘r Treat was fantastic, and I need to get this out of the way right now. Warner Bros. is shooting themselves in the foot for not releasing this film. What they’re shelving it for makes absolutely no sense to me. This is what horror fans have been waiting for (unless you’re a Saw/Rob Zombie fan in which case you’re not allowed to enjoy quality films). Writer/Director Michael Dougherty has something very special here, and he manages to do something that almost no horror films in recent memory have managed. He mixes suspense, action, gore, terror and comedy seamlessly without tipping too far in one direction. Trick ‘r Treat is the film we, as horror fans, have been waiting for. And, we’re going to keep on waiting.

Rating: ★★★★★★★★★½
