Paramount finally confirms....

After speculation for years after the sequel coming out in 2005, Paramount has finally confirmed the remake of the Asian sensation Ringu 3 otherwise known as The Ring over in America. The Ring 3, finally being confirmed after 7 years of negation is said to be focused more on teens rather than a mother and her child as the other two films. It will most likely be a sequel rather than a prequel according to Paramount. The Ring was actually one of the first horror movies I watched back in 2002 where the first was released.

Naomi Watts, the star of the previous two films will most likely not be involved with the project because it will now be about teens. It is not known who will play Samara, the evil little girl in the tape as the original actress, Daveigh Chase, is now in her mid 20's so new casting will be needed. 

Speculation on how to come about it though are worrying fans of the franchise. It's obvious that VHS tapes are not used in today's society so it will be interesting to see how they come about it. I'm thinking, maybe someone transformed it into a DVD file. 

Already teasers have been spread on the internet as you can see. I for one will be seeing it. What a great move made by paramount.

In other news, Scream 5 is "up to Bob Weinstein" say Wes Craven, the popular horror director.

"Well no one has called me about it" laughed Craven. "At the moment, I have no idea what the plans are for the franchise-it would be down to [the producer] Bob Weinstein to decide on that."

I'll let you know on any further details on both these productions.

Long-awaited screen shots

The first official screen shots of the anticipated Slasher are finally released. The screen shots feature on and off screen brothers Aiden (Dylan) and Jamie (Corey), as they discuss the murders.

A Horrible Piece of Writing

I know I may get a lot of backlash writing what I'm about too but oh well. Each VCE class set us homework and the Literature homework was to read the world-known best-seller written by Harper Lee. It had sold over 30 million copies and had won numerous awards such as the Pulitzer Prize Winner. It was given comments such as "Someone rare has written this very fine novel".  That's right, I'm talking about the "piece of art" To Kill A Mocking Bird. Originally published in 1960, the book is still a massive book in literature.

However, all the reviews and remarks have been mostly given by adults and I have found that many teens including myself find this book absolutely horrible. I found the piece torture to read. I have found the characters hard to like and also the storyline just annoying. It seems that every different chapter was a different story. Harper should have just written short stories with this kind of style. Also, it takes forever to get into the major storyline....heaps of the minor ones were just unnecessary with irrelevant detail. At the current time I am only one-third through yet I actually had a dream about setting it on fire.

I seriously can not understand how this has been proclaimed one of the best novels ever written. Hopefully the next few chapters change my mind because at the moment, with this kind of ranking, there is no way I can successfully write essays on it for assessments.

Sorry if this offends anyone but I'm entitled to my opinion.

The First Official Teaser

The First Official Teaser of Slasher

4/5...aint bad?

A follow up from my previous post. 4 actors which include Caitlin Horton, Ryan Meyers, Corey Cohen and myself have so far agreed to come back to the movie and make it happen. At the current time, we are unsure if Thando Bhebe is going to return. The movie may have some characters cut as well as scene cuts but I don't really care...I am just happy that this long awaited movie is back in action.

Stay Tuned....more information to come your way. \

Who would have thought? But can it be done this time?

To think, the anticipated movie that myself, Ryan, Corey and Thando couldn't wait to make was supposed to be filmed a year ago. Now, Jojo Meys...a very skillful special effects co-ordinator has offered her help to make the movie. She loved the original plot and script of the movie in which we named Slasher.

Now, after a series of texts between myself and the cast, Slasher may be back in production and to be filmed this summer...making it a postpone of a full year.

But after all the previous drama's of filming just a few short scenes at the start of the year, can it be done this time? Don't raise your hopes just yet...but Slasher may not have died and been buried last summer and could very well be in production this summer. I will keep you updated.

P.S "Just a thanks to Jojo Meys for offering up her time to maybe help us complete the movie in which we all worked so hard on. Thanks"
