friday13th-toxic.jpg

The Complete Fly - A Tribute to Hollywood's Mutant Insect-Man

560flyopera.jpg

Could anyone have predicted how the Brundlefly would replicate over the decades? Four movies -- and now an opera -- later, the time has come to show our full appreciation for this mutant insect-man. (For the complete schedule of The Fly (1958), The Fly (1986) and The Fly II (1989) on AMC, click here.) See how The Fly has evolved over time. See how he reflects the different eras. See how he gets the girl! Let's put that guy under a microscope!

Creepy Stills from Barker's Book of Blood

bookofblood.jpgIf you're a Clive Barker fan, you're beyond psyched about the Book of Blood movie. To get you in the mood, check out Bloody-Disgusting, which has stills from the Matador Pictures movie on its site. Says BD, "Based on the wraparound story penned by Clive Barker in the author's "Books of Blood" collection, a psychic researcher, Mary Florescu, employs medium Simon McNeal to investigate a haunted house. McNeal, at first, begins to fake his visions, but then real ghosts present themselves. They attack him and carve words in his flesh, and these words, claims the narrator, form the rest of the stories, stories written on a literal, living Book of Blood."

Eyeball that skin! It looks something Ed Gein would wear. Either that, or some macabre riff on a Fruit Roll-Up.

Dario Argento Has Guts

Mothercoralinadeathnews5 The news surrounding Dario Argento's latest, Mother of Tears, keeps getting better and better. Most recently, actress Carolina Cataldi-Tassoni passed along new pictures of her death scene in the film (slated for release in February) to Fangoria. Along with the atmospheric trailer that plays like an Argento "Best Of," the graphic stills of Cataldi-Tassoni being strangled with her own guts suggest the master is back in top form. 

The film is actually the third in a trilogy that includes Suspiria and Inferno—both over 20 years old. The referencing of earlier works is probably a good thing. Argento's last effort, The Card Player, focused on a serial killer who kidnaps young girls then forces the police to play Internet poker to save their lives. Corny, to be sure. By returning to his signature material, Mother of Tears could revitalize the giallo genre and Argento's reputation. Let's hope so.

Schumacher Heads Down to the "Town Creek"

Town_creek Let's face it, Joel Schumacher's good films have been few and far between. While his landmark The Lost Boys is fondly remembered by child of the 80s, he hasn't done anything as good since then. The Number 23 flopped last winter, but you can't keep Schumacher down. He's hard at work at his latest supernatural thriller Town Creek. Fangoria got its hands on the latest still (which shows nothing) and details about the film.

The David Kajganich (The Invasion) penned script opens in 1936, when a German family living in Maryland agree to host a visiting scholar working on occult experiments for the Nazis. So far, so good; fast forward to present day Maryland. Evan is frantically searching for his brother who, disappeared during a camping trip. When his brother escapes his captors, he finds Evan and leads him back to take revenge. Sound a little hokey and convoluted? Then it must sound exactly like a Joel Schumacher film.

"Scourge": A New Take on Flesh-Eating Aliens

Scourge100607

Horror is the perfect genre for aspiring, "indie" filmmakers -- just look at John Carpenter's Halloween debut or Sam Raimi's Evil Dead Series. So it's always exciting to hear of a new independent chiller like Scourge. Written and directed by Jonas Quastel, this nasty film follows around a creature that burrows into its victim's belly-button, eats his internal organs and controls their motor functions -- forcing them to consume a massive amount of calories. Of course, the body then rejects the food intake, leaving the victim to die in a pile of vomited entrails. The folks over at Bloody-Disgusting.com got their mitts on exclusive images like this one.

The film sounds like a mix between Slither, Alien and the gluttony sin from Seven. While the calorie consumption might sound lame at first, it could end up being an interesting commentary on society's love of fast food and obesity. What better way to explore those themes than having characters vomiting up their blood insides?  The film is currently in post-production and is looking for distribution.
