A&E Goes Into Production with 'Occult'
11 March 2013 1:30 PM, PDT | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
A&E is beefing up their scripted department - and they are beefing it up with scary stuff. Bates Motel is a mere week away from its premiere, and a new pilot has just gone into production, called, simply, Occult.
From Hollywood Reporter: "Occult revolves around Dolan, an FBI agent who has returned from administrative leave after going off the deep end while investigating his wife’s disappearance. Eager to be back on the job, he is paired with Blair, an agent with her own complicated backstory who specializes in the occult. Together, they will solve cases for the newly formed occult crimes task force." Josh Lucas (American Psycho, Session 9) will play Dolan, while Lynn Collins (True Blood, Blood Creek) will play Blair.
Sounds a little X-File-y does it? Well, it is written by X-Files alum James Wong. He will also produce alongside Platinum Dunes duo Andrew Form and Brad Fuller, »

AMC Turning Up “The Terror”
18 February 2013 10:16 AM, PST | FamousMonsters of Filmland | See recent Famous Monsters of Filmland news »
Scott Free TV and AMC are teaming up to adapt Dan Simmons’ novel, The Terror. The adaptation will come from David Kajganich, who’s working on The Creature From The Black Lagoon remake, a new It incarnation, and also wrote Invasion and Blood Creek. Could it be AMC’s next big dramatic hit?
The premise for the book is as follows:
The Terror is set in 1847 when the crew of a Royal Naval expedition to find the Arctic’s treacherous Northwest Passage discovers instead a monstrous predator– a cunning and vicious Gothic horror that stalks the ships in a desperate game of survival, the consequences of which could endanger the region and its native people forever.

AMC to develop Dan Simmons' arctic "Terror"
14 February 2013 5:29 AM, PST | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »
Deadline is reporting that AMC, alongside Ridley Scott's Scott Free production banner, will take on The Terror, an adaptation of award winning horror/sci-fi/fantasy author Dan Simmons' fictional account of just what happened to the non-fictional Captain Sir John Franklin and his lost expedition to the uncharted portions of the Arctic Ocean's Northwest Passage in 1845.
His fourth expedition to the arctic, renowned officer and explorer (and governor of Tasmania from 1836-43) Franklin, his team and their two ships, the Hms Erebus and the Hms Terror (of where the novel partly takes its title) were icebound and suffered from pneumonia and starvation, with some eventually resorting to cannibalism. Simmons' novel, however, reimagines a mythological antagonist in the form of a monster called the Tuunbaq.

AMC Plans "The Terror" TV Series
13 February 2013 7:34 PM, PST | Dark Horizons | See recent Dark Horizons news »
AMC has put a TV series adaptation of Dan Simmons' 2007 novel "The Terror" into development.
The book is an acclaimed fictional spin on the true story of Sir John Franklin's lost expedition in the late 1840's. Two ships, the Hms Erebus and Hms Terror, traverse well below freezing conditions in the Arctic in an attempt to forge the Northwest Passage. Both ships were lost.
The novel follows the fictional scenario in which Franklin and his crew are plagued by starvation, scurvy, mutiny and cannibalism. They are also stalked across the bleak Arctic landscape by a monster called a Tuunbaq which randomly picks off crewmen.
David Kajganich ("The Invasion," "Town Creek") is penning the adaptation, and he will also produce alongside Simmons, Ridley Scott, David Zucker, Alexandra Milchan, Scott Lambert and Meghan Lyvers.

FEARnet Movie Review: 'Smiley'
12 February 2013 1:00 PM, PST | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
After a number of years spent sifting through independently-produced horror movies of every size, shape, quality, and nationality, one starts to notice the little intangibles. Things like intent, effort, and passion -- and, on the other hand, stuff like laziness, cynicism, and outright plagiarism. One of the recent "discoveries" on my horror rounds was an American indie called Smiley that, oddly enough for such a tiny film, earned itself a small theatrical run a few months back, probably because the sales agent knew what s/he was doing. Michael J. Gallagher's monumentally uneventful slasher flick Smiley comfortably joins the ranks of films like Chain Letter, Blood Creek, and Creature: low-rent horror flicks that play theaters only so the DVD sales sheets can legally say "fresh off a successful theatrical run!"
Because not even the creators of Smiley could believe that a movie this woeful could pack any appreciable number »
