Birds Remake Director Martin Campbell Flies the Coop
5 December 2009 1:36 AM, PST | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »
In the case of Platinum Dunes' remake of Hitchcock's classic The Birds, you'd think that all the various delays, rewrites, etc., might have the producers reconsidering their plans; but no, it appears to be full steam ahead with the project despite the fact that it recently lost its director, Martin Campbell, to The Green Lantern redux.
Pajiba got the scoop that although Campbell, who's best known for revitalizing the Bond franchise via his updated Casino Royale, is out, Platinum Dunes has talked to [The Last House on the Left director Dennis] Iliades about taking over the $60 million produced movie, and he’s driving the new direction of the film, which, under Campbell’s direction, was geared toward a PG-13 release. Iliades is more interested in amping up the horror and making it an R-rated affair although at this point they’re looking to do another rewrite tailored toward Iliades’ vision. The script has passed through a lot of hands over the last year, »

The Birds Remake Gets The Last House on the Left Director
4 December 2009 6:20 AM, PST | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »
Some potentially distressing news this week for fans of Alfred Hitchcock. It looks like that long-rumoured remake of The Birds from Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes production company is still happening, despite the fact that the previously attached director Martin Campbell has since left the project for Green Lantern pastures. According to Pajiba [1], a new director is settling into Campbell's place, and that man is Dennis Iliades, who helmed this year's remake of Wes Craven's The Last House on the Left. Now, I actually didn't mind the new version of The Last House on the Left, but the reason I find this news distressing (aside from the fact that they are remaking The Birds!) is the fact that Iliades reportedly wants to amp up the gore and turn the movie into an R-rated horror flick. It is also getting yet another rewrite, having already gone through Scott Derickson (The Exorcism of Emily Rose, »

Looks Like This Film Is Going To The Birds
2 December 2009 11:34 PM, PST | LatinoReview | See recent LatinoReview news »
I really liked The Birds when I was a kid. I used to tame and train cockatiels from when they were babies, so I had birds growing up and were always fond of them. Lucky for me, none of them tried to eat me.The Hitchcock remake of The Birds has been pretty silent lately, but now it looks as if its clipped wings have grown back and it's ready to take flight again.Pajiba has more on who's directing: But a Universal property like The Birds isn’t going to simply disappear because it lost a big-name director. It just gets kicked down a stair to the next available lower tier director. In this case, that director looks be Dennis Iliades, who brought us the stunningly mediocre remake of The Last House on the Left. It’s not completely official yet, but Illiades is in the driver’s seat »
Martin Campbell Off The Birds
2 December 2009 5:55 PM, PST | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
As he's now far too busy working on Green Lantern, it appears Martin Campbell has decided to drop out of developing Platinum Dunes' planned remake of The Birds.Well, either that or the ghost of Alfred Hitchcock cameoed in one of his dreams to convince him that it was a bad idea. Still, Hitch has yet to make an appearance in the unconscious of Dennis Iliades, who, according to the Pajiba blog, is looking to take over the director's chair.Iliades isn't exactly new to the horror remake genre - just this year, he graced us all with a new version of Last House On The Left. So it appears he's producer Michael Bay's top choice to handle the feathered fiends.This fresh outing for the avian evil hasn't exactly enjoyed an easy flight to the screen - it's been through several writers, including Scott Derickson (The Exorcism Of Emily Rose »

The Reel Paranormal (Truth is Stranger Than Paranormal)
20 November 2009 1:45 PM, PST | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »
From the vampire and werewolf clashes of The Twilight Saga to the disturbing events of Paranormal Activity, there appears to be no end in sight for the overwhelming popularity of stories in film and television that deal with the paranormal and supernatural.
Although a majority of these hair-raising creations are the product of Hollywood's imagination, like the old saying goes, "There is some truth to every story"; and in my quest to find some truth of this elusive world, I was amazed to discover a gold mine of it in a real-life explorer of the paranormal amidst the entertainment industry.
Christopher Chacon is a world adventurer and paranormal explorer who has investigated more real-life paranormal phenomena than any fictional TV series or movie can depict. And if you think this "calling" is unorthodox enough, it's actually the balancing of this extraordinary work and his creative endeavors in the entertainment industry »

Marsh Listens To Vatican Tapes
8 November 2009 11:44 PM, PST | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
James Marsh won plaudits and a Best Documentary Oscar for Man On Wire, the story of tightrope artist Philippe Petit and his amazing walk between the towers of the World Trade Centre in 1974. But now he's abandoning the real world for a supernatural thriller called The Vatican Tapes, which is sadly not about the Pope's '80s mix selections.No, instead of Do You Really Want To Hurt Me and Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, this is a tale with a horror tinge, about a Vatican tape of an exorcism gone wrong being leaked. We're guessing that the results could resemble a cross between Paranormal Activity and The Exorcism of Emily Rose, but only time will tell.The screenplay's by Chris Borrelli, a former visual effects guy who previously wrote horror movie Whisper and action-fest The Marine 2. Chris Morgan, one of the writers on Wanted and Fast & Furious, also worked on the story. »
Man on Wire's James Marsh Will Unveil The Vatican Tapes
8 November 2009 11:29 PM, PST | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
British director James Marsh made huge waves with his exhilarating documentary Man on Wire, which is apparently loved by nearly everyone. Now Marsh will jump back to feature films as THR reports he will be helming the supernatual thriller The Vatican Tapes which centers on a series of events that unfold after a tape gets leaked from the Vatican displaying an exorcism that goes wrong. At least they're laying this all out on the table as opposed to The Exorcism of Emily Rose which instead portrayed itself as an Exorcist style horror flick, when it was really just a courtroom drama with unfrightening flashbacks. That's right, I said it. Chris Borrelli wrote the screenplay based on a story envisioned by himself and Chris Morgan, but no cast is attached yet. This isn't the first time Marsh has directed a non-documentary film, as he directed The King starring Gael Garcia Bernal »

Weekend Report: 'Michael Jackson' Strikes Top Spot
1 November 2009 5:32 PM, PST | Box Office Mojo | See recent BoxOfficeMojo.com news »
This Is It was all there was as far as new nationwide releases went this Halloween weekend, but it was sufficient to help propel overall business nine percent higher than the same timeframe last year.
Though it may not be commensurate with the raft of pre-release hype surrounding the movie and Michael Jackson's death, This Is It performed exceptionally well for a concert picture or music documentary, charting second only to the opening of the Hannah Montana concert. It raked in an estimated $21.3 million on approximately 5,500 screens at 3,481 sites, ranking as the fifth highest-grossing Halloween debut on record, and has grossed $32.5 million in five and a half days. Add in foreign grosses of an estimated $68.5 million from 98 countries, and This Is It's five-day worldwide haul was $101 million, which exceeded the lifetime tally of the Hannah Montana concert.
While morbid curiosity was part of the appeal, spurred »

Scott Derrickson to guide 'The Living'
19 October 2009 10:50 PM, PDT | screeninglog.com | See recent screeninglog news »
Scott Derrickson, the director of last year's disappointing sci-fi remake "The Day the Earth Stood Still," is now set to helm "The Living," a supernatural thriller for Lakeshore Entertainment.
As with most films hitting early developmental stages, plot details are kept under wraps, so I apologize I don't have any more on this. Variety says the film is based on a pitch by Derrickson and Paul Harris Boardman.
Derrickson really launched his Hollywood career in 2005 with "The Exorcism of Emily Rose," a film I mildly enjoyed but certainly didn't love. He followed up with "Day," but that one truly sucked.
Also on Derrickson's radar is "Hyperion," based on Dan Simmons' sci-fi novels "Hyperion" and "The Fall of Hyperion." He also has "Paradise Lost" in development. »

Earlier in the month it was announced that director Scott Derrickson would helm a remake of a Danish thriller called The Substitute for producer Sam Raimi. Now The Day the Earth Stood Still director has sold a new idea that he will co-write and direct for Lakeshore Entertainment, the same company that produced Derrickson's The Exorcism of Emily Rose a few years back.
The new project is called The Living and it was pitched to Lakeshore by Derrickson and his writing pal from Emily Rose, Paul Harris Boardman. The storyline is being withheld but Variety knows that it's in the same vein as Emily Rose, namely a supernatural thriller. Boardman will get a producer credit along with Lakeshore's Tom Rosenberg and Gary Lucchesi. »
