Owens has been cast as the head of security at a housing development who is desperate to protect his family. Actor-director Joel David Moore (Hatchet) is directing the remake of Huh Jung‘s 2013 South Korean hit film (trailer below) about a man searching for his long-lost brother and stumbles across a secret world of squatters who are terrorizing unsuspecting tenants.

Chucky Looks Like A Brand New Doll In The First Look At The ‘Child’s Play’ Remake

The first look at the Child’s Play remake is here and one thing is for sure, ole Chucky looks like a brand new doll. Filming has already begun on the remake from MGM and Orion, directed by Lars Klevberg. It will feature a new take on the killer doll that we all know and love. How different will the remake be? Not only does Chucky look different, but he will also sound different since Brad Dourif, who has long voiced the possessed doll, won’t be voicing the new version. Chucky‘s getting an upgrade. It’s been said that there will be robotic aspects to the doll which may be hacked and made to kill. Here’s another thing, creator, writer, and director Don Mancini has ZERO to do this flick. It will also have nothing to do with the original franchise which is still alive and well. Tyler Burton Smith (Kung Fury 2) wrote the script for the remake starring Aubrey Plaza

New ‘Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes’ Movie Enters Development

The trend of horror remakes is far from over, in fact, it is continuing to grow (sigh). The next genre film to be added to the long list of remakes, reboots, and revamps is the remake of 1978’s Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. Kent Nicholas is directing from the script that he penned with Douglas Sarine. Currently the film is development and will be produced by M. Dal Walton III, according to Movie Insider. In the original, directed by John De Bello, a group of scientists banded together to save the world from mutant killers tomatoes. Attack of the Killer Tomatoes spawned three sequels and an animated series that ran from 1990 to 1991. Part horror, part comedy, and part musical, the film is truly a classic. Here’s the original trailer. If you haven’t seen the movie, I recommend that you do so immediately.
