Final Word on Re-Animator 3D
March 17th, 2009
With all the nonsense swirling about on other sites about casting, start dates, etc., it's hard to know exactly what's true and what's not. Do we cover it? Should we cover it? We've consumed a ton of aspirin over the last week as a result. I can tell you that this will be the final mention of Re-Animator 3D here until someone signs a damned contract.
Shock Till You Drop got to the bottom of things by going to producer Ray Haboush:
"This current rumor about Elisha Cuthbert appearing in the remake of Re-Animator is just that - a rumor," he says. "Actually the whole idea that we are remaking the movie this summer, in Spain nonetheless, is completely off base ... especially as no talent - writer, director, nor actor - has been attached to this project in any capacity whatsoever. We have been discussing amongst ourselves the idea of remaking Re-Animator in 3D; however, at the moment it is still only a concept. For now, all of Brian [Yuzna]'s attention is focused on prepping Amphibious, a creature feature to be shot in 3D, that he's directing next month in Southeast Asia."
And there you have it. Case closed. For now.

Phasma Ex Machina Trailer Now LiveHere at Dread Central we LOVE ghost stories. The more noise the dead, make the happier we are. A haunting new tale is on the way called Phasma Ex Machina from writer/director Matt Osterman, and I've gotta say it looks kind of spooky.
Now I know what's going on with amphibious.

Well, it was actually me who contacted Mr. Haboush, but yeah, looks like there's still a bit of a "glimmer" for a remake. ;)

Sorry about that -- it looks like Shock recently updated their story to co-credit you. Had we known initially, we certainly would have as well.
