'It takes all kinds of critters to make Farmer Vincent's fritters,' and history was made with this line from the 1980 horror flick, Motel Hell. We caught up with Producer Craig Perry (The Final Destination) today to check the status on this highly anticipated remake.
Craig tells us, Motel Hell was something that came into our laps through MGM direct-to-video, it was a title they were looking to repurpose and reinvent. We oddly happened to have a script that had enough similar elements we thought it could be retooled to reflect what happened in the original and build it. Maybe make it a little bit more cohesive. Cause let's be honest, the original is a fun fever dream of lunacy. I mean Rory Calhoun and

Craig Perry, the producer of the "Final Destination" movies, is always fun to talk to as we've learned from past meetings, and ShockTillYouDrop.com had another chance to sit down with him once again at Comic-Con after they showed the extended 3D trailer for the fourth (and last) movie in the franchise, The Final Destination .
Before ending the interview, he told us he's still hoping to get a remake of Kevin Connor's 1980 gorefest Motel Hell off the ground with Steven C. Miller ( Automaton Transfusion ) directing, though right now, it's really up to MGM if it will happen or not.
"It's been in the works forever, and it's a movie that I won't make a penny on but it should be unbelievably fun if we can get it together and that's up to the corporate guys,"

The hits just keep on comin’ from the Graves camp; today another new character/teaser poster arrived, depicting Lamb of God screamer D. Randall Blythe as Deacon Luke, the ferocious henchman of Skull City’s Reverend Stockton (Tony Todd). Check out the graphic below. We also got some exclusive comments from Brian and Dean Ronalds (pictured left), who produced the movie through Ronalds Brothers Productions along with writer/director Brian Pulido’s Mischief Maker Studios.
Having been longtime fans of Pulido’s comic-book work, the Ronaldses first met him when they both had movies entered in the Phoenix Film Festival and International Horror and Sci-Fi Film Festival in 2005. “After hanging out and appreciating each other’s achievements and sensibilities, we decided to make a picture together—a Brian Pulido picture,” the brothers tell us. They were able to use the connections made over the course of four years touring the
