Escape From New York Reboot


~From ComingSoon.net

Deadline is reporting that Joel Silver and his Silver Pictures are teaming with StudioCanal for a new big screen take on Escape From New York.

Set in a dystopic future, John Carpenter's 1981 original starred Kurt Russell as a Snake Plissken, an eyed-patched convict sent into a maximum security prison (formerly the island of Manhattan) to rescue the President.

Carpenter directed his own sequel to the original, Escape From L.A., in 1996.

New Line Cinema had been planning a remake for some time with, most recently, The Crazies director Breck Eisner attached to helm. Before that, Len Wiseman was planning a version that would have starred Gerard Butler in the Plissken role.

The new take will be produced by Silver and Andrew Rona with Alex Heineman executive producing.

Sony Sets a Release Date for Resident Evil 6

~From ShockTillYouDrop.com

If you saw Resident Evil: Retribution - the fifth chapter in the series, which grossed $221 million worldwide - you know they've left the door open to at least one more chapter in the series.  

[...] Director Paul W.S. Anderson [...] had mapped out a story for a new trilogy which would carry the franchise into a sixth film, so you know he's ready.  While we don't have a title for that sixth film, there is a confirmed release date...

ShockTillYouDrop.com has learned Sony/Screen Gems has set a debut date for September 12, 2014 which means Anderson and star Milla Jovovich will likely begin shooting the new film this fall.

Story-wise, no details have been released, but when we last saw Jovovich's Alice, she was at the White House and facing a rather large threat with Wesker by her side.

Global Zombie Walk


~From ShockTillYouDrop.com

There’s a Global Zombie Apocalypse coming to a city near you on May 4th, 2013 with over 1,000 cities around the world participating. Dress like a zombie and join the biggest pub-crawl in the known universe. Crawl, stagger, walk, or run to the party – there’s never been anything like it in the living world – or the world of the dead – before.

Zombie pub-crawls combine the decadent fun of the average boozy pub-crawl with the best of zombie walk traditional fun. Pub crawl participants don zombie attire, pour on the fake blood, and devour drinks and snacks shuffling bar to bar. They walk like the living dead and party like there’s no tomorrow. One of the first zombie pub-crawls began in the US, but the contagion of fun is about to spread worldwide. So what’s next? Zombies take over the French Quarter? Times Square? The Left Bank? Big Ben? The world's largest pub-crawl is bound to break the world record for the largest of zombie gatherings.

Zombies can create their own costumes or stagger on into a costume store. Must haves: fake blood and gore, ripped or tattered clothes, and a strong desire to turn the night of the living dead into a rocking, fun night of the living dead. No more will zombies be confined to B movies and comic books. They’re coming - it’s a dead man’s party!

Saturday May 4th, 2013, join the massive hordes of the undead. Be part of the swarm of zombies to descend on local bars - and party through the night at the biggest gathering of the undead ever seen.
