A Full Trailer for Season of the Witch

Following up on the teaser trailer that appeared online last month, Lionsgate has released via Fandango a full-length trailer for Season of the Witch, which hits theatres on March 19, 2010.

A Friday Treat! Nic Cage Being a Really Bad Lieutenant

No. This has NOTHING to do with horror movies. We know that, and in this instance, we're fine with that. So, why are we doing a quick news story on Werner Herzog's Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans starring Nicolas Cage?

David Goyer Talks Ghost Rider 2

Last we heard about Ghost Rider 2, David Goyer said he hadn't signed on yet but plans were already under way to base the sequel on a script he had written previously. Now today comes word that he is confirmed as a producer for the next installment and will polish his nine-year-old screenplay (including reworking its hard R-rated nature for a PG-13 rating), and while the continuity won't necessarily get an overhaul, the tone is certainly shifting.

Season of the Witch Teases Us with a Trailer

No, we're not talking about the bastard sequel of the Halloween franchise (sorry, no need to get that song stuck in your head) or even the little known George A. Romero flick of the same name. What we have here is the teaser trailer for a new Dominic Sena flick!

Tiny Teaser Art for Drive Angry

Over on the official Nu Image website the first bit of teaser art for Patrick Lussier's Nicolas Cage flick, Drive Angry, has surfaced, and even though it's kind of tiny, it's still pretty badass.

Columbia Talking Ghost Rider 2 with David Goyer

Nicolas Cage has been talking about a Ghost Rider sequel for over a year now (see an earlier story by Foy from 9/4/08) and nobody paid him much mind, but now the trades are getting into the act and throwing around David Goyer's name to boot.

Nic Cage Will Drive Angry for Patrick Lussier

With the box office success of The Final Destination this weekend, we expected to hear about upcoming 3D projects over the next several days and weeks, but nothing prepared us for the prospect of Nicolas Cage and his hair being involved in one of them. However, seeing the names Patrick Lussier and Todd Farmer attached to the same film does engender a bit more confidence in it.

Motion Picture Purgatory: Knowing

Knowing is one of those films that just keeps sticking around. It could have been something special, but instead it gave us some spectacular imagery and one of the hokiest endings in cinematic history. So of course Trembles has to have the last word on it!

Nicolas Cage Talks Ghost Rider Sequel

We are big Nicolas Cage fans here at Dread Central? Why? Because he can be a lovable over-acting madman! Recently he sat down with MTV to talk about the sequel to Ghost Rider, which -- if he has his way -- will be more of a reboot than a sequel.

Season of the Witch Uncaged in March

Good news for fans of Nicolas Cage and his hair! Lionsgate announced today that his latest film, Dominic Sena's Season of the Witch, has been granted a March release!

Knowing DVD / Blu-ray News

Knowing was a very polarizing film to say the least. It did alright at the box office. Roger Ebert gave it four stars. Most every other critic despised it. I enjoyed it for the hokey leftover Seventies Larry Cohen-style doomsday porn flick it was. Uncle Creepy nearly imploded from the hate he felt for it. Now you too can decide if the Alex Proyas/Nicolas Cage flick was great, terrible, or somewhere in between.

Lionsgate Signs For Season of the Witch

No ... calm down. Breathe. Lionsgate is NOT remaking Halloween III: Season of the Witch. We'll always have the bastard of the Halloween franchise with its cool-ass deaths and manic theme song to ourselves. We're talking about an all new property here, folks, one that's free from showing us Tom Atkins' bare ass!

Alex Proyas Talks Knowing with MTV

One upcoming genre film that's been kind of flying under the radar is Alex Proyas' Knowing. It's probably because of the involvement of its on-again/off-again star, Nicolas Cage, whose last few efforts haven't been exactly stellar.
