Cabin in the Woods Delayed, Goes 3D

We all thought we were only a few months away from the February release of the Joss Whedon scripted slasher flick, Cabin in the Woods. Unfortunately MGM has other plans. Looks like we're gonna be shopping for a new horror valentine this year.

Poltergeist Remake Hits Fast Track

Word has broken from MGM about their proposed remake of the classic film Poltergeist. The studio has slated the film for release on November 24, 2010, just in time for Thanksgiving weekend. Vadim Perelman (House of Sand and Fog) is attached to direct.

SDCC 09: First Look -- Three Teaser Posters -- The Cabin in the Woods

And a late night slice of goodness rolled into our inbox tonight showcasing not one but three teaser posters for Joss Whedon's latest project ... The Cabin in the Woods.

Juan Carlos Fresnadillo Gets X-ray Eyes

Who here remembers Roger Corman's classic X: The Man With the X-Ray Eyes? Anyone? If you do, you're either an uber-fan like me or well on your way to (or past) middle age. In any event the film is up next for the old remake treatment with a great name attached to direct.

Five Cast in Whedon's The Cabin in the Woods

MGM finally let the proverbial cat out of the bag tonight in terms of the casting of the Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard's latest film, The Cabin in the Woods, and I have to say things are shaping up quite nicely.

Silence of the Lambs on Blu-ray March 3rd!

Are you ready to see a great big fat person in high definition? Don’t worry, you’ve got until March 3rd to prepare; that’s when MGM puts Silence of the Lambs out on glorious Blu-ray! Never before have Lecter’s slurping, Clarice’s vacant stare or Buffalo Bill’s wonderfully disturbing dance looked or sounded so good!

Twisted Clip from Hit & Run

The folks at MGM just dropped us a clip from the direct-to-DVD thriller Hit & Run, which is in finer DVD stores everywhere today. The story follows a girl who hits a man with her car, impaling him, and the consequences of the decisions she makes to try and deal with it.

Hit and Run Trailer

The nice folks over at MGM just sent along the official trailer for their upcoming direct-to-DVD offering Hit and Run. The story is about a college student who thinks she accidentally kills a cat on her way home one night, but instead finds a man’s nearly dead body impaled on the bumper of her Jeep. Easy mistake, happens all the time.

Last House Collector's Art

The boys over at DVD Active got a very nice look at the cover for the upcoming Special Edition re-release of Wes Craven’s Last House on the Left.

New Last House Edition Planned

As is usually the case, a remake of a classic horror film (in this case the one coming up from Rogue) means a special edition of the original will make its way to DVD. In the case of Wes Craven’s Last House on the Left, it’s a long overdue catch up.

Amityville Goes Online?

Why anyone would want to sequelize the abysmal remake of The Amityville Horror (review) is beyond me, but at least it seems like those in charge are taking a page from the endless sequels to the original film and going the route of ridiculousness.

Final Pumpkinhead DVD Art

MGM has had two versions of the DVD art for Pumpkinhead: 20th Anniversary Edition out there for a while now, neither of which were what one would call ideal.

Complete Limits, More Gallery on DVD

Loyal reader Sam Hell dropped us a line this weekend, pointing us to some very cool DVD news for fans of old-school anthology horror shows.
