Jamie Lee Curtis “Discussing Stuff” This Week With Jason Blum

Published

on

Jason Blum posted a photo to his official Twitter this week of him and Jamie Lee Curtis clutching a Halloween action figure and captioned it simply with, “we’re discussing stuff.” Yeah, we get the hint.

This is obviously a tease, if you weren’t paying attention.

Small as this post by Blum may seem, this is like Christmas come earlier for fans of the most recent Halloween film. Though we don’t have any concrete information about what exactly they’re discussing, we can safely say that involves a certain Laurie Strode facing off with a certain Michael Myers. Here’s the pic:

 

 

 

Recently, Blum has stated that if it was up to him, he’d make ten more Halloween films. Not one, not two, but ten.

As much as I love the franchise, this begs the question: how is this story ever going to end? And if it hasn’t ventured into the point of hilarity by now with Michael coming back for more – and more – and more – then when will it?

A workaround for the 2018 film was to simply ignore all of the sequels, which outraged many fans of the series. Is the series, for better or for worse, going to end up in a cycle of reboots for all of eternity?

Personally, I think it would be really cool to go back to John Carpenter’s earlier idea and make the series into more of an anthology. Halloween III: Season of the Witch was a great film in its own right, and over time, its gained a cult following.

I love Michael, but we can all agree that eventually he needs to die for good. As it stands, that’s probably not going to be any time soon.

I have to admit, though…it would be super cool to eventually see Michael fight Jason. Wouldn’t it?

’28 Years Later’ Trilogy Taking Shape With Serious Star Power

Published

on

28 years later

Danny Boyle is revisiting his 28 Days Later universe with three new films. He will direct the first, 28 Years Later, with two more to follow. Deadline is reporting that sources say Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes have been cast for the first entry, a sequel to the original. Details are being kept under wraps so we don’t know how or if the first original sequel 28 Weeks Later fits into the project.

Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Ralph Fiennes

Boyle will direct the first movie but it’s unclear which role he will take on in the subsequent films. What is known is Candyman (2021) director Nia DaCosta is scheduled to direct the second film in this trilogy and that the third will be filmed immediately afterward. Whether DaCosta will direct both is still unclear.

Alex Garland is writing the scripts. Garland is having a successful time at the box office right now. He wrote and directed the current action/thriller Civil War which was just knocked out of the theatrical top spot by Radio Silence’s Abigail.

There is no word yet on when, or where, 28 Years Later will start production.

28 Days Later

The original film followed Jim (Cillian Murphy) who wakes from a coma to find that London is currently dealing with a zombie outbreak.

Watch ‘The Burning’ At The Location Where It Was Filmed

Published

on

Fangoria is reporting that fans of the 1981 slasher The Burning will be able to have a screening of the film at the location where it was filmed. The movie is set at Camp Blackfoot which is actually the Stonehaven Nature Preserve in Ransomville, New York.

This ticketed event will take place on August 3. Guests will be able to take a tour of the grounds as well as enjoy some campfire snacks along with the screening of The Burning.

The Burning

The film came out in the early ’80s when teen slashers were being churned out in magnum force. Thanks to Sean S. Cunningham’s Friday the 13th, filmmakers wanted to get in on the low-budget, high-profit movie market and a casket load of these types of films were produced, some better than others.

The Burning is one of the good ones, mostly because of the special effects from Tom Savini who had just come off of his groundbreaking work on Dawn of the Dead and Friday the 13th. He declined to do the sequel because of its illogical premise and instead signed on to do this movie. Also, a young Jason Alexander who would later go on to play George in Seinfeld is a featured player.

Because of its practical gore, The Burning had to be heavily edited before it received an R-rating. The MPAA was under the thumb of protest groups and political bigwigs to censor violent films at the time because slashers were just so graphic and detailed in their gore.

Tickets are $50, and if you want a special t-shirt, that will cost you another $25, You can get all the information by visiting the On Set Cinema webpage.
