Vincenzo Natali Talks Swamp Thing

One superhero whom we feel never really got a fair shake on the big screen is DC Comics' Swamp Thing. Yes, Craven's film (let's not even talk about its sequel) was pretty good for its time, but with such a cool and complex character, there's so much more that could be done. When it comes to complexity, you've got to give the nod to director Vincenzo Natali, and recently he spoke about possibly taking the reins behind a new film starring big green.

Swamp Thing Makes Akiva Goldsman's Heart Sing

Akiva Goldsman is a name almost universally reviled amongst the online movie geek community. Inside Hollywood, the Oscar-winning screenwriter is one of the most respected and sought after. Will the screenwriter of Lost in Space, Batman & Robin, I Am Legend, and I, Robot find redemption amongst the hardcore fanbase with his work in bringing Swamp Thing back to the big screen?

RIP Dick Durock

Without a doubt the hardest part of our job reporting on the latest horror news is when one of our own is taken from us. We're very sad to inform you that Dick Durock, best known for his role as the "Swamp Thing", passed away last week at his home in Oak Park, California, after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.

Joel Silver Planting Seeds for Swamp Thing's Return?

To the best of my knowledge the world has not been clamoring for the big screen return of Swamp Thing but then it's not like remaking DC Comic's Swamp Thing would be sacrilege. Wes Craven's 1982 film version was enjoyably campy and Jim Wynorski's 1989 sequel tested the limits of campy fun; neither are classics. If uber producer Joel Silver wants to remake Swamp Thing in 3D, I say go for it.
