Zombie says that Uncle Meat's is "the coolest hangout in Haddonfield."

Eli Roth Not Involved With ‘Hostel 3′

9 July 2009 10:37 AM, PDT | From ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news

Eli Roth may have made his first proper acting appearance in Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds recently, but he’s still very much involved with a lot of producing and directing projects. But will he be involved with a third film in his successful Hostel franchise? Well, from the man himself comes the word that he’s not involved with it in any way.

 

In talking with ComingSoon.net (thanks to ShockTillYouDrop), Roth said that he’s happy to have made the first two Hostel movies, and quite obviously glad of the success he had with them (particularly the first), but he’s not going to be doing the planned straight-to-dvd Hostel: Part III:

“That’s another one like ‘Cabin Fever 2′… The studio had made a lot of money with it so they want to keep going, and the fans, there’s demand for it, and great. If I

Assorted horror DVD & Blu-Ray news

9 July 2009 9:40 AM, PDT | From Fangoria.com | See recent Fangoria news

IFC Films gave Fango an update on when a quartet of its horror titles will debut as Blockbuster exclusives and then become available for retail via Mpi.  Look for The Objective (at Blockbuster July 14) to retail on October 27; Pontypool (Blockbuster Oct. 13) to retail February 10, 2010; Dead Snow (Blockbuster Oct. 20) to retail January 26, 2010; and Dark Mirror (no Blockbuster date as of yet) to retail March 2010.

Meanwhile, the two Blu-ray set of the complete theatrical cut of the Weinstein Company’s Grindhouse (which we previously reported on here) has now been shifted to a street date of December 31 by Wal-Mart, which appears to be the only retailer offering it at the moment. That’s the slot the company has also set for a three-dvd Grindhouse edition—but since that’s a Thursday, and discs usually street on Tuesdays, could that just be a default date?

Two Brand New Looks at Michael Myers in 'Halloween II'!

8 July 2009 12:18 AM, PDT | From bloody-disgusting.com | See recent Bloody-Disgusting.com news

Michael Myers is heading back to Haddonfield and Bloody-Disgusting has a new look at the iconic horror slasher in two exclusive stills.

What do you guys think of the new pics? Dimension Films is bringing Halloween back to theaters on August 28th. It's that time of year again, and Michael Myers has returned home to sleepy Haddonfield, Illinois to take care of some unfinished family business. Unleashing a trail of terror that only horror master Rob Zombie can, Myers will stop at nothing to bring closure to the secrets of his twisted past. But the towns got an unlikely new hero, if they can only stay alive long enough to stop the unstoppable.

Rob Zombie's 'El Superbeasto' Goes Direct to DVD

7 July 2009 7:02 PM, PDT | From Cinematical.com | See recent Cinematical news

It's entirely possible I am the only one disappointed by the following news, but bear with me. The latest word on Rob Zombie's dirty lucha libre cartoon, The Haunted World of El Superbeasto, is that it's headed directly to DVD and Blu-ray. That's the bad news. The good news is that after three years, it will finally see the light of day (or the darkness of night). Zombie's first foray into animated filmmaking has plenty of clever characters doing the voice acting, like Rosario Dawson, Paul Giamatti, Danny Trejo (!), Clint Howard, and Zombie regulars Bill Moseley, Sid Haig, and Sheri Moon Zombie.

Zombie told IGN in an interview this past spring, "It came out awesome... That started off as this little tiny half-a-million dollar direct-to-video movie that expanded into this $10 million animated extravaganza." Except, well, it's a $10 million animated extravaganza that is going direct to DVD.

Exclusive first set report: Zombieland

7 July 2009 8:55 AM, PDT | From Fangoria.com | See recent Fangoria news

Wearing Western gear—cowboy boots, hat and black coat—actor Woody Harrelson strides up on the (fake) night-shrouded porch of a Texas gift shop filled with American Indian tourist kitsch. Using his sawn-off, double-barreled shotgun, he dings the bell above the entrance to “Kimo Sabe’s” and steps to one side. Like one of Pavlov’s dogs, the now-zombified owner lurches toward the front door. All flesh-chewing instinct, the ghoul doesn’t see Harrelson hiding and gets a head shot from the gun, dropping like a sack of rotting enchiladas.

The kill, as physically shot, is bloodless (no squib used, but splatter may be digitally added in postproduction). It’s a far cry from the gore-drenched chaos and killing Fango witnessed 10 days earlier, when the gutters of Atlanta, Georgia literally ran with blood as first-time feature director Ruben Fleischer supervised a scene of mass mayhem, featuring over 25 zombies attacking screaming,
