Ice scripted by Lori Nelson which is based on the true story of Ernest Shackleton's Antarctic Endurance expedition, will be developed into an action-adventure feature film by Robert Chartoff and Lynn Hendee of Chartoff Productions. Variety reports that Nelson also produces the project which is being sent out to directors, aiming for a 2015 release which coincides with the 100th anniversary of Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. This was an attempt to become the first land crossing of the continent but disaster struck when the Endurance ship became trapped in pack ice and crushed in 1915. Of the 27 men on the expedition, no lives were lost.

According to Deadline, we’re hearing that Fox 2000 has optioned the film rights to Lori Nelson Spielman‘s debut novel, The Life List. Not unusual in the world of Hollywood, the novel isn’t even set to hit shelves until next year, courtesy of Ballantine Books.
However, we do know that the novel tells the story of a young woman who embarks on “a year-long journey of self-discovery after her mother passes away and leaves her an inheritance with one big stipulation — in order to receive it she must complete the items on the “life list” of goals she made for herself when she was 14.” Although apprehensive at the beginning, she takes on this challenge in a “bewildering and comedic journey through her adolescent dreams” which leaves her “surprised to find the life, and the self, she’d lost along the way.”
Hutch Parker will produce the project under his Hutch Parker Entertainment banner.

Stephen King always referred to his classic 1980 novella The Mist as his "black and white Bert I. Gordon bug movie." At the Long Beach Comic Con this weekend, when the film he was going to run, Give 'Em Hell Malone, got hung up over rights issue, a funny, shoeless Thomas Jane substituted it for a big screen showing of The Mist in black and white!
"This is my favorite way of seeing this movie," Jane said. "It's the ultimate version of the movie! Frank (Darabont) feels it should be seen this way, too. I loved playing the main character--David Drayton, the hero--every decision he makes is totally wrong!"
After the grim ending, Thomas Jane joked "That's a real party starter, huh? I love the movie. Unfortunately, they released the movie at Thanksgiving--which was obviously the wrong time of year for this kind of movie."

I had never seen any of Alan Rowe Kelly’s films until he contacted me—literally moments after posting my first Gay Of The Dead blog. And yes, that is Alan in the photo to the left. Don’t worry, we’ll get to that later.
Kelly’s opening salvo to me was the grisly, intense and controversial A Far Cry From Home segment from the recently wrapped Gallery Of Fear anthology, which he co-wrote, co-directed and produced for his Southpaw Pictures. From there I jumped back to his first feature, I’LL Bury You Tomorrow, a loopy, sprawling, bloody feature that manages to wind storylines of seven main characters into one big crazy fest. After that, I popped in The Blood Shed, which starts off with a preteen kid being yanked in half and just gets more insane (see: awesome) from there.
