Trouble Ahead For Fans Of RE-ANIMATOR!

[metalmonster]

I Have Just Recieved Some Distressing News!

They Will Soon Be Making A Television Series Based On RE-ANIMATOR , But It's Going To Be A Teen Drama Aimed At The TWILIGHT Crowd

Here Is A Picture Of The Cast


It Is Supposed To Coincide With The Release Of The Remake Of RE-ANIMATOR
And There Is A Good Chance That The Remake Will Not Involve Either Stuart Gordon Or Jeffrey Combs

This Is Indeed A Bad News Day For RE-ANIMATOR Fans

Sounds interesting. 

[ulthar]

Oh my word. 

My head hurts...   

[diamondwaspvenom]

NO!!! GOD NO!!! 

[diamondwaspvenom]

Do you think maybe we should pray to Cthulhu so he can rise up and devour the producers and actors involved in this atrocity. 

[indianasmith]

While I don't share the general hatred for remakes that animates many of you, this just seems . . . . wrong!  How do you improve on the perfect B movie?

[ulthar]

I cannot help but feel that this is karmic retribution for Stuart Gordon getting voted "Hall of Shame" here on the BadMovies.org "Fame or Shame - Directors" game.


Man, I KNEW when I saw the title of this thread that I should not open it...I'm still reeling from the utter stupidity of this.

And just earlier tonight, I was recommending some Lovecraft readings to a friend for her niece (she loves horror movies but does not like to read...hoping to spark an interest).  Now what's going to happen...she's going to watch this crap, figure out it is "based on Lovecraft" (oh my, I think I threw up a little at that), and what will she think?

"Oh, that Lovecraft guy is just a Twilight rip-off."



Arrrrg.   

[vukxfiles]

Effing teenagers and the stupid things they like watching. If there were more mature teens like me, these kinds of atrocities wouldn't exist.

[Cthulhu]

Oh..my...I'm gonna be sick... I just realized that this piece of putrid anal waste is going to have the name "Lovecraft" on it somewhere...
Allright people. Meet me at the big Hollywood sign tomorrow at 1 PM. Bring weapons. Anything that you can find. Golf clubs, baseball bats, sickles, guns, flamethrowers, whatever.
We have some urgent fixing to do.

[Doggett]

*slams head on desk*

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

If they want to keep the Twlight crowd amused, just hand them pieces of paper with Please Turn Over written in the corners of both sides. That should keep them busy for a few hours.

Or they could re-make Twilight into a watchable film ?!?!?! 

Why even aim Re-Animator at the Twilight people ?????
Are they gonna remake Wishmaster and aim it at the I Dream of Jeannie crowd  ????

[AndyC]

You know, I'm beginning to rethink my position that there is no imagination left in Hollywood. I couldn't have imagined Reanimator as a wussy teen drama series, and I still can't imagine how it's going to work or why anybody is going to watch it. My mind is just incapable of putting the ideas of Reanimator and teen drama together as anything but a spoof. Shows how rigid my thinking is.

(there's just a little sarcasm there, in case you missed it)

[Jack]

Oh god, something made money so now everything else must be made just like it.   

[ulthar]

Another picture of the cast:



This site has a plot summary.

West is now going to be the attraction of all the young coeds at Miskatonic U.  Looks like more teen drama with some fx so they can call it horror.

Oh, THIS is going to be good...   

[Paquita]

Is it bad that I don't hate this idea?  Don't worry though, I won't watch it.

[AndyC]

West is now going to be the attraction of all the young coeds at Miskatonic U.  Looks like more teen drama with some fx so they can call it horror.

Oh, THIS is going to be good...   

Well, we all know what a ladies' man West is. Popular, charming, full of charisma. It's the essence of the whole character.

Oh, I do hope they feature the flying reanimated head of West's wise and kindly mentor, Dr. Hill, as comic relief. That would be so much fun.

(OK, that's a lot of sarcasm, even for me)
